The Thomasville Walmart got in a fresh case of Elite 63 yesterday. I grabbed the only Bob Backlund and left the rest of the case. The Shetlon Benjmain was the regular version instead of the variant. Forewarning: all of the packages were crushed at the bottom. Nothing else new in stock at this location from what I recall other that then Braun Strowman Wrekkin' Car set. The Lexington Walmart also has it.

Wendover Walmart has most of E63 and some of E62. Ambrose, Kane, Shinsuke, AOP, Zayn, even a Sting. No Backlund.
Battleground Walmart continues to disappoint with bringing in new figures. Just Top Picks and the usual Ellsworth/Cass/Charlotte. Brickseek has been showing them with like 40 OH of the Elite Flashbacks for months...guessing they’re either hiding in the stockroom or it’s an inventory erro and it’s blocking normal distribution because they don’t want to overload them.

I noticed this early last year when the flashbacks first started rolling in. Got to be some sort of error. This had been a great store to hit until recently. It’s bad when the Wendover location is better...

Wendover isn’t too far out of my way on the way to work...don’t really have the patience to drive across town to the other Walmarts just to be disappointed 90% of the time.

The Walmart here in Lexington received at least two cases of Basic 90 sometime this weekend. I picked up one of the three Kane figures in stock and left the rest. Multiples of everyone else and nothing new besides those.

Battle Packs 57 are hitting the state!
I found two fresh cases at the Walmart on South Tryon Street in Charlotte last night on the way home from the New Japan Pro Wrestling show. I bought a set and left the rest of that case; as well as the entire second case. Nothing else in stock other than the usual stuff we have been finding at Walmart locations the past month or so.
The Salisbury Walmart location was also loaded down with this wave as well...at least three cases worth! Nothing else new there either.
No sign of Elite 63 anywhere in this area.

Elite 64 has hit North Carolina!
I scored a full set, minus the non-variant Curt Hawkins at the Hanes Mall Boulevard Target in Winston-Salem earlier tonight! I left behind a lone Seth Rollins, which Poindizzle scooped up. Nothing else new or worth mentioning there.
Despite it being one of Mattel's best works of art to date, I can't believe folks were paying that much for Pete Dunne!!!

It made me cringe when I see they’ve hit here. I had a Dunne on hold at a target an hour away. I drove there to find out it was sold to someone else who I seen on Facebook to have bought it at the target.

I was shocked as well to see these are hitting this early. To think, elite 65 is close to hitting as well as nxt takeover 4. My head and wallet are both spinning..!

Made the rounds in High Point and Greensboro today.....hitting just about every Target and Walmart. E63 has hit Battleground, but no Dusty or Backlund......nothing of note at any other Target or Walmart, until I went to the last Walmart on the trip off S. Elm Eugene, and I landed the only Backlund. BP 57 was prevalent at about every stop.....no sign of E64 or NXT 4 at any of the Targets in the area.
Just glad I score a Backlund. Now on to Sherri, NXT4 and Dunne.

Basics 91 is hitting!
I scored a full set, minus the regular version of Dean Ambrose which I do not want, at the Walmart on South Main Street in High Point earlier today. There was at least 2 cases, if not three in stock. Forewarning, the packages are bent to hell like usual with Basics...

Two full sets of B91, beat to crap. They had both versions of Dean. I picked up Gulak as I don’t think he will ever get an elite. JP

Did they have another gulak in decent shape? Mine is dented in on one of the corners of the bubble, so I may grab another and return this one.

Bent at the top, yes!!!! Bubble was in decent shape as I usually leave the best of the packaging, since I’m an opener, as long as the paint app is good.
