Hey guys, I'm sorry to make another thread so soon but I didn't see this in any of the other threads and I felt like it deserved it's own thread. I was watching Kyle Peterson's MNW Series 3 ranking and he said there was only two more series left. He said the Monday Night War line was done. This could explain why we only saw one Ultimate in the reveals from Wal Mart the other day. Can we get confirmation on this from someone that knows??? Are we really not getting Ultimates of Big Poppa Pump or Booker T??

All I know is that when this was announced and discussed, Steve has always maintained that there was not an end date set. However, if Walmart can always make a decision to no longer order them, so really it is up to Walmart. I guess with all the distribution issues, I could see this being done at 5 waves.
We should find out this week.

If they replace it with figures that aren’t desirable to me I’d be happy. That way I don’t waste time and gas going to Walmart

I honestly hope so, with how much of a PITA this line is to collect.

If the bigger plan is to get it away from Walmart, replace it with something else entirely, and then find a new home where people can reliably find these things, I'm onboard. Even though it's not as expansive as we had hoped with the deeper cut names, there's still quite a few repaints and new versions of characters already made I'd like to see.

I mean..... would it even make a difference?
The pegs in all the Walmarts in my area have sat empty since Series 1, which did not sit there very long.
Series 2 was never even offered online, and I've never seen Series 2 or 3 in any store.
If they aren't going to stock it or even attempt to sell it, no reason to keep doing it.
Throw this one on the long list of failed Walmart exclusives. They refuse to learn or improve. I guess a few scalpers made money, maybe they'll be upset. The rest of us will be relieved we don't have to go crazy trying to find a way to buy these.

The recent series 2 seems to be easy to get for those who wanted it this week. The Triple H seems to be the peg warmer of the set. Wish that Ultimate Eddie was easy to find. Didn’t see any of those unfortunately.

The Monday Night War era is my favorite in all of professional wrestling. And with that said, I really hope so. These figures have been a pain in the ass to find from the start.
I don’t mind Walmart getting an exclusive every quarter or whatever, but what’s currently going on is ridiculous. You can’t find this stuff and they still haven’t shown they will consistently ship online orders.

Just watched the video. Sounds they're still doing the best of MNW with Vincent Baf.
He did drop a bit in the same video that the Zodiac will be re'released as apart of greatest hit line. I don't think there's been a listening leaked for that.

No. It’s not going anywhere.
Starting with wave 5, all MNW Elites (except Greatest Hits) and Ultimates will be available for pre-order.
Wave 3 pre-orders seem to be fulfilling properly so I’m hopeful the previous issues have been resolved. If there are wave 3 fulfillment issues, post here and I’ll pass them on.

Give Smyths the MNW UEs please 🙏 in the UK we have to pay double or triple the RRP and buy on eBay because we don’t have any walmarts.

Please continue to push WWE to approach more WCW names for this line, particularly "first time" and "deep dive", guys like Mortis/Kanyon, Norman Smiley, Ernest Miller, Buff Bagwell, Alex Wright, Konnan, Disco Inferno, Perry Saturn, La Parka, Steve McMichael, Kronik, Referee Nick Patrick, etc... would add much needed depth to this line. Thank you as always for your hard work and passion. |

So sounds like we're on our own for Wave 4....
Which I"ll just pass on now because I'm still waiting for Wave 2 in any store around here.

Steve, I missed Eddie initially. He sold out fairly quickly. Will there be another round of online orders? |
