I saw Legends 3 for the 1st time in stores today @ TRU (Cary). They had everyone except for The Rock.

I had to go to Winston today to finish some Christmas shopping. I also made a little time to do some figure hunting! Here is what I found:
Hanes Mall Blvd. Target: -At least two of each of the Royal Rumble Heritage series (no Undertaker or 1/1000's). -One of the employees brought out a fresh case of Over The Limit figures. However, only 3 were put on the shelf. If you want any of the other figures from this series you may have to ask an employee to go get them for you if they are not put out by tomorrow. None the less, they have a case there. -No sign of the Defining Moments figures at that store. However, I did not ask about them either as I do not intend to collect this line.
Hane's Mall Blvd. Wal-Mart: -Ton's and ton's of miscellaneous Basics; most notably several Basic 6 figures (no Kelly Kelly) and tons of Yoshi Tatsu's. There was 1 Basic 7 Sheamus there when I left tonight. -As with all the local Wal-Mart stores that I have visited lately, they had a nice assortment of Basic 6 & 7 2-packs. -They had several Elite 6 figures out on the pegs. I came in through Lawn & Garden and came across a lone, fresh case of Elite 6 in the over stock toy section (before you enter the actual store). I picked up the lone CM Punk in that case and left at least one of each of everyone else in the series.
Toys'R'Us: -Multiples of Wrestlemania 26 Basic Drew McIntyre, Christian, Shelton Benjamin and Chris Jericho. -1 lone Wrestlemania 26 Elite Triple H (this is the only WM Elite figure I recall seeing). -Several DVD Heroes figures (I don't care for these so I didn't look much into them). -Assorted Legends single and 2-packs; looked to have all of the 2-packs in stock. -1 Lone Ruthless Aggression Cody Rhodes figure. -2-3 of everyone in TNA 2-packs 2. That Motor City Machine Guns 2-pack look amazing in person. It was tempting to pick one of those up. -That was most of the new items that they had in stock other than the usual which I did not list.
Kmart: -Absolutely nothing to report on other than British Bulldog, Jim Duggan and Brian Pillman from Legends 3. -They did have some remaining WWE Hall Of Fame Legends figures on an end cap along with a couple TNA Deluxe figures scattered about.
Highway 150 Wal-Mart: -Same as last time other than an end cap display with Basic 2-packs 7.
It was nice to see a few different items pop up in the Winston area today. Unfortunately the only thing I found worth buying was the Elite 6 CM Punk, which I have been wanting to pick up since I saw it in person the first time.

^I need to check KMart tomorrow. I want another Legends Rock. I have been thinking about picking one up myself since the figure looks great and this is of course The Great One we are talking about here! I am not a fan of those goofy looking sunglasses though! I believe I should go ahead and get the next one I find while I still can!

I went in to TRU (Cary) late last night (Christmas Eve), and there was a total of about 5 WWE Mattel figures on the shelves. I have never seen it that bare. It'll be interesting to see what they restock with tomorrow.

I went up to Winston today in search of TNA Deluxe Impact 2 Hernandez and Amazing Red so I can get caught up with the TNA figures some more. Here is what I found:
Target on University Parkway: -At least 1 of everyone in TNA Deluxe Impact 2, except Hernandez and Amazing Red (2 Hernandez, 3 Red). I picked up 1 Hernandez and 1 Amazing Red! -They had those new WWE Brawlers figures. They had numerous packs with weapons featuring John Morrison and The Undertaker. There was also some 2-packs that featured DX, CM Punk/R-Truth and John Morrison/John Cena. Not to mention that there was a ring available as well that came with John Cena and someone else. -1 lone Royal Rumble Heritage Undertaker.
Wal-Mart off University Parkway: -Nothing to mention here other than 5 Basic 6 Ted DiBiase, Jr. figures. This place was hit hard before Christmas!
Wal-Mart off Hanes Mall Blvd.: -The same as last week with a lot of the Basic and Elite figures bought up.
Target on Hanes Mall Blvd.: -The same as last week except they still had everyone in the Royal Rumble Heritage series except Sheamus. -They had also put out Over The Limit figures since last week.
TRU: -Leftovers from last week. There was a dent put in the TNA Cross The Line 2-packs 2 from last week. No Machine Guns and only 1 of everyone else left. -They had the UFC figures on clearance for $5.98. There were about a dozen including Royce Gracie, Chuck Liddel (blue modern shorts) and 2 UFC 0 Brock Lesnar figures. I broke down and picked up 1 of the Brock Lesnar figures to avoid paying an outrageous price on Ebay for one of his WWE figures. I guess I was wrong when I told myself I wouldn't buy another UFC figure...
Kmart: -Almost completely wiped out other than various WWE Legends figures.
Wal-Mart on Highway 150: -Nothing new from last week. -Leftovers from Basic 7 and Over The Limit.
All in all, I consider the trip a success as I was able to pick up both Hernandez and Amazing Red! I was also shocked to score a UFC Brock Lesnar figure so cheap as I have been eyeing that figure forever now and finally got one at a rock bottom price! I was hoping to find both Matt Morgan and Velvet Sky from TNA Deluxe Impact 3 and possibly the Stevie Richards/Daffney 2-pack from TNA Cross The Line 3, but I can wait on those for another day.

I forgot to mention last night that the Defining Moments series has hit both Target stores in Winston. Both stores had 2 of each when I visited the stores yesterday.
The TRU in Winston also had those huge UFC figures of Randy Couture and Chuck Liddel. The packages look great, but the figures look terrible. They had 2-3 of each in stock.

I went to K-Mart (Cary) today because people on these boards were saying that there were new display stands which include Legends 4 and Basic 8. They didn't have them. I was surprised to see Defining Moments there though. They had 2 Macho Man's for anyone who is interested.

Hi guys, new guy here. Anyhow, (in High Point) Target @ Oak Hallow Mall had 1 each of DM Savage and HBK. Had a handful of Legends as well. Wal-mart on N Main had craptastic stuff. If anyone catches an Elite Kane and Orton, can you let me know? Thanks.

I stopped in at that Wal-Mart (I assume that is the one close to Tarheel Lanes Bowling Alley) last night and it looks like they had put out a fresh case of Royal Rumble Heritage. They had at least 2 of everyone from that series including Sheamus (no 1/1000's). Have you had any luck finding chase figures in the High Point area?
I also stopped in at the Thomasville Wal-Mart to find out that they had nothing new in stock as far as wrestling figures go. However, there was a case of Elite figures that was unopened and I would assume it was Elite 6.

TBH, I live in Greensboro and was on my way to my mother's house for dinner when I stopped in. But no, as I've been looking, I haven't seen any.
Asheboro and Randleman had been sucked dry as well. Guess restocking from Christmas takes a while?

Guess restocking from Christmas takes a while? I haven't been to the Randleman Wal-Mart since the beginning of Summer, but that place is generally a waste of time anyway. I don't recall ever buying finding anything decent there, little lone buying something from that particular Wal-Mart. However, I did stop at the Wal-Mart in Asheboro about a month ago and they had a decent selection of Basic figures with a ton of Best of Basics 2010 Hornswoggle, which seemed odd. I'm guessing it is going to take a while to restock after Christmas as I haven't seen much of anything restocked in the last week.

The only reason why I was in there was because I'm a salesman and I needed to go to Asheboro, so I figured I would stop in. In case you guys missed the post above, Target has the Mattel Elite figures on sale right now for $9.99. Right now you can buy 3 figures for the regular price of 2.

'Rumblers' are starting to show up. I saw them at K-Mart (Raleigh, Western Blvd.), WalMart (Apex), and Target (Cary & Apex) today. I saw everything (and bought everything) except for the 2-packs.
