Eddy stone Walmart had AEW in stock according to brickseek. I couldn’t find them, nor could the employees. Then it went down by one, and I went back and they still weren’t on the shelf. It’s been at 2-3 for a couple of days and they still aren’t on the shelves. If it didn’t move I would doubt it was accurate. I really don’t know anymore.

But the other day I saw my store showing 5 in stock, and figured somebody bought a chase figure. Ran over to the store, and the employee was literally putting them onto the pegs as I walked into the aisle. All 6 were there, no chase. |

I instantly went the negative route and assumed an employee grabbed a chase and the case is just sitting opened in the back. When I got series one, it updated to the amount that I left on the shelf, so I can’t help but view it as something that’s accurate. We can’t essentially because everyone has experienced such different things with brickseek. |

Stopped in Walmart in MT Pocono on rt 940, around noon today ,my first time there, they had 1 of each of elite 81 except for the Rock. Being from Wilkes Barre this was a pleasant surprise to actually see elites in person at a Wal Mart.

So I have a story for you guys that you may enjoy. So I went to the KOP target today and they didn’t have really any wrestling stuff but I went over to the NECA stuff and there was a guy there talking to his friend on speaker and basically telling his wife what to do, she does whatever etc but he was pricing everything they had on eBay, I could see the page, I walked right up and grabbed Nosfertu and the one Ultimate Ghostface and I guess he didn’t see me cause he like freaked out and immediately grabbed like six things off the shelf right away including all the turtles two packs they had. I can’t stand scalpers and I was glad to beat one today.

I can’t stand scalpers and I was glad to beat one today. I had no idea there was even any rare NECA stuff. All my stores have are 65 different versions of Godzilla and Predator. Toy scalpers really are the worst. And clearly this guy didn't even know what he was looking for if he had to call his buddy to tell him what to buy. There's a toy store that opened in the local mall that sells nothing buy figures that went on clearance at stores, Ollie's, etc. They just clear out anything that goes on clearance, and then price it at 150% of the original SRP. I'm really hoping the pandemic puts them out of business. |

Ran into a fellow collector (and board member) at a Walmart earlier this week. He claimed to have found two MJF chase figs at various Walmarts in the area. Lucky dude. Still haven't seen an AEW Series 2 figure in the wild. Wrestlings figs have been pretty high and dry in the western PA area since finding Ultimate Fiend and Hogan a couple of weeks ago.

It's been really dry here. I found two cases of AEW series 2, and picked up a full set and found a MJF chase. Also found Fiend/Hogan at one Target, but others all got more HHH/Balor cases. And one lonely Royal Rumble figure. |

Yet to see any Royal Rumble figures either. I've had success with Transformers and McFarlane DC figs, so I guess that's something. |

Great story -- and same as another poster, I thought the only thing valuable for NECA is Turtles. I feel like I see everything else on the shelves.

There is stuff that you can make a little off of if you catch it early or catch it after it’s all done at retail. |

I've been out of action but what's the story with the Royal Rumble figures? As in, are they here and gone in PA already? Last time they did these at Target, I think only 1 Target got a set by me and of course I never found the Macho Man I wanted. I'm guessing this one is similar and the Warrior is going to evaporate. I haven’t seen a single sighting in PA or our area of NJ so I don’t think they have gotten here yet. |

I haven’t seen a single sighting in PA or our area of NJ so I don’t think they have gotten here yet. I found a lone Umaga in SWPA. But haven't seen any other sign. People are reporting that they are breaking up cases at the DC and only sending 1 figure at a time to stores. |

I’ve run in to people like that in the KOP area for the last 7 years I’ve lived here. |
