So what happened with E67? Never hit retail, just Walgreens? I guess due to the set not having a store exclusive they were skipped by Target and Walmart. I thankfully got who I wanted from the set by RSC and Amazon. Have they been found at Walgreens in NJ?

Any Elite 69 found in South Jersey yet? I’m dying to get my hands on the Miz.

Walgreens in Flemington (Hunterdon County) has 1 Elite Maryse & 3 Elite Alexa Bliss figures if anyone still needs them.

Walmart in Union NJ had some E68. I saw Daniel Bryan, Brie Bella, Braun Straowman and 2 Roman Reigns. No Paterson, taker or Mabel. total of 5 elites on the shelves, despite brickseek saying they had 37 on hand. That Brickseek number is not the number now. There’s a new one to use to track E68. oh that makes sense, was wondering why every store was "out of stock". Whats the new number? Trying to get my hands on that Rock.

Trying to get my hands on that Rock. To track 68 its 589043017 To track 69, not sure. Some are saying that its not the same as the # for 68. Im not 100% sure myself. Someone else on hete might have a better idea.

Some are saying that its not the same as the # for 68. Im not 100% sure myself. Someone else on hete might have a better idea. So from what I’ve see other people saying/noticed myself (I can say 100% it happened in my case, though it seems some stores are fixing it): It’s being checked into their inventory with that new E68 SKU you posted. However, it’s being SOLD as the individual character SKUs on the older clearance Elites, meaning that inventory is not being taken out when one sells. For example, one near me got three cases of E69 in and jumped from 0 to 24. I know for a fact they went out, I bought the scraps myself, but Brickseek and Walmart’s story inventory still says 24 because they rang up at $7 each, under the old clearanced character SKUs (from 65 and prior, at least at Walmart). This is going to present a huge issue with stores getting new stock in dependent on whether your local store ends up correcting the issue (it hit over half the stores in MA but I’ve noticed over the last two days some stores must have been notified and course corrected, immediately dropping their stock in one swoop).

So, maybe the boxes are being scanned as #589 and the actual figures are scanning as #738? Obviously they only scan the cases/boxes upon arrival and thats what increases the count on Brickseek. That actually makes complete sense.

So, maybe the boxes are being scanned as #589 and the actual figures are scanning as #738? Obviously they only scan the cases/boxes upon arrival and thats what increases the count on Brickseek. That actually makes complete sense. Seems likely on paper but here’s the weird one: One of the stores around here got a couple cases of E69. Their inventory currently reads 27. The two cases of 69 they got are gone, leaving them with just 68 remnants. You would think if what you’re saying and what I originally thought was true, then the old SKU on Brickseek would show as zero, as they sold down more than what they actually even had for that SKU. I tracked all my local stores like a hawk leading up to 68 and 69 dropping. This store had 6 of the discount SKU Elites in their system prior to this debaucle. Guess how many they have now, after selling through two cases of 69 that SEEMS to be ringing in at that SKU? Still 6. It doesn’t seem to update the inventory of either the new or old SKU. My theory, with no water to it aside from process of elimination - you know how when you search on Brickseek each character has their own SKU? These normally don’t matter, we all ignore them because they’re constantly set to zero and they don’t get checked in under that number. I think that somehow Hasbro or Walmart messed up and linked their new wave to one of those technically unused SKUs, which I believe are also discounted down to that $4-7 range. It seems to be the only explanation as to why no inventory is being removed from either SKU. Sorry for the novel, everyone. I’m actually just fascinated as to how something this dumb happens, so I’ve been trying to figure it out in my spare time during commutes and such. That’s what I’ve come up with.

Actually that makes a lot of sense. I just checked the Las Vegas area using just the Rocks SKU and one store is showing they have 3. So I believe you are right on this one. I will try to check on the other 69 SKUs as well. Having a hard time finding the #s.

Finally! Success! Found 69 in Phillipsburg, NJ. Two boxes still on the pallet when I came in. Grabbed two each of Ali, Ricochet, and The Rock for myself and a friend. Also grabbed one Miz and one Ciampa for my collection. Great face scan on Miz finally. Left the rest! Hope someone who is looking here can score them. Rock is ringing up at $15.88 while the others are still ringing up at $7.00 btw. Happy hunting!

Saw the number go up on Brickseek at around 5pm and didn't decide to go check it out til around 11pm. I guess I was fortunate nobody pulled the boxes off the pallet before me lol..
