Before i created this topic, several questions has been posted here and was asking about why certain countries like Canada, Singapore, Malaysia and Philipines are ONLY getting 2 elites from each series? Example: Series 1 Only Rey Mysterio & Undertaker Series 2 Only HHH & Batista Series 3 Only HBK & John Cena Series 4 Only Big Show & John Morrison I just desperate need to get answer from Mattel . Dont ask me to go buy at amazon.com coz they wont ship it to here in Malaysia. Need Help

I dont think anyone here knows the answer. Your best bet would be contact Mattel.

You don't blame mattel for these, you have to ask the distrubutor. Mattel has nothing to do with products around the world.

That tells you not to buy from departmental stores only And also, maybe you have to email them about this. I don't think you will be able to get anything from us here.

ebay sellers, people on the classified board here and online retailers ship full sets and singles outside of the USA. You do have other options and ways to get the figures you are looking for if you choose to do so.

The harsh reality is regardless of there being someone sitting there reading emails or not, the quality of customer service teams these days is pathetic. Any complaint or even general query too often gets chucked in the "Don't Care" basket (TRASH) and ignored.
The guy has a genuine point - Why do big countries especially in terms of population like Canada, France, Malaysia etc only get 2 figures in each series. I live in New Zealand where we have only 4 million population and we get all 6 figures in each set.
Mattel have purposely made these series with only 2 figures in them. As can be seen by the special carding. Now whether its those countries distributors being slack(cheap) and ordering the cheaper 2 figure series or its Mattel making these sets for those countries, only 1 company knows.
At the end of the day you can only keep trying to contact Mattel and get an answer. I know it would p1ss me off if I lived in a country that only got the 2 figure sets. US residents, NZ and Australian residents are not effected by this so its not really up to us to say "you can buy them off eBay or the boards" The simple fact remains that you guys want to be able to go down your local stores and buy them. My advice, keep trying to contact Mattel and if you still have no luck why don't you try getting all the collectors from Canada, France, Asia etc and start up a petition on facebook or something. Maybe then Mattel will see it and take notice - especially if you get loads of followers and then send a link to the WWE/Mattel facebook page.

Just go to ringside collectibles and order them. I live in Canada as well and I have just scrapped the idea of getting figures at retail. My local wal marts ect stock up on flex force and that's about it they get 1 case of pay per view and 1 case of basic usually 2 months after release. They still have WM Heritage and Basic 2 out and a ton of Shawn Micheal and Cena Elite. No series 4 or 5 no Elite 5 no Royal Rumble. I have also noticed that toys R Us are just stupid expensive. They sell elite 1 and 2 for $23 each and figures for $16 and 2 packs for $25. If you just wait till you have a couple you want Ringside usually has a sale and it will actually be cheaper to buy them from there then retail. I have almost all the Mattel Wwe figures made and 90% are from Ringside.

I have almost all the Mattel Wwe figures made and 90% are from Ringside. If you want to get boned with shipping rates, then yes Order what you need from ringside. Seriously though, I only order the figures we don't get and I REALLY want from ringside or the occassional two-pack since we don't seem to get those here either. This is only the odd time though. I personally don't think I should even have to resort to ordering online to get these figures.

I personally don't think I should even have to resort to ordering online to get these figures. This was my latest order MVP Basic 4 - $8.49 Undertaker Pay Per View 4 - $9.99 Chris jericho Pay per View 4 - $9.99 Chavo Elite 5 - $19.99 Santio - Elite 3 - $12.49 Rhodes - Elite 3 - $12.99 Dibiase Elite 2 - $12.99 Dreamer and Christian 2 Pack - $17.99 Coupon Discount - $10.44 Shipping - $37.13 Total- 131.11 (136 CAD) With the current prices at my local Toys r Us and walmart that exact order would be $153 plus Tax. Some times they may have basic for $10 at walmart but thats not a usual thing. The only thing that sucks about Ringside is you have to order $100 worth otherwise your shipping is bad. Its not as convienient as walking into the store but it works.
