im in CT and things are so dry its becoming not fun and giving me anxiey on how backed up i am with figs. it started at elite 11. i have every elite figure in the line up to 11 including exclusives and ill buy some basics depending on rookie fig or outfit. series 11 hit and i couldnt find a yoshi or a purple ted. series 12 was even worse. i was able to get a del rio and kane but never even saw the rest of the set in stores besides pegs full of orton. i found one sheamus in 13, never saw RRH, worried about the bret and DB in th TRU set, got mason and orton but no luck wth macho and punk. i ordered the bret and cena DMs because i have never seen them in stores yet the stores are swamped with takers and austin. i have never had this problem. i feel like im trying to get the last sets of ljn and hasbos. i know i can get the figs on the net but the hunt is the thrill.......like i said im in ct, is anyone else having a drought? and im talking all stores.

Nope none here. My areas been pretty well keeping up with sets lately. Saw BOPPV, Elite 11-13 so far, and the first 2 sets of battle packs. What you can't get in stores just order them online. RSC offers everything and what they don't have, you can always get from TRU, Mattel shop, or other online retailers. There has not been a figure I could not find from Mattel ever. As long as i act with in a reasonable about of time (6 months at least) I can get anyone i need.

i know but my credit cards are all maxed out and i usually just buy prepaid cards for ordering BUT its stupid, i shouldnt have to do that when i have a bunch of stores around me. its sucks too when i get a fig and the legs are stuck and if u keep moving them they break. it aint like i can just go get a replacement.

I'm in CT too, and I haven't had as bad as a problem as you have. I haven't seen RRH either, but just today I saw WMH in Walmart, and I got two Savage/Punk battle packs, and have seen several more besides that, at the TRU I go to.

Luckily I have a lot of retail stores in California but I still haven't seen DM5 in stores yet. I saw one wave of E11 and that was it. These two are my only complaints.

The only figures I've never seen that have been out for a while are DM5 Cena (Saw 1 Bret) & RRH Hitman. (Saw everyone but Bret) besides those I'm just waiting for the new WMH Warrior & E14 Booker & Bossman to hit retail.

In Canada it's much worse. Only new thing we've gotten since last summer was BoPPV series figures, and I can't even find them at my local stores.

I've found most of the newer sets, but the case assortments have been a big problem for me lately. I've found remnants of both series 14 (RRH) and series 15 on numerous occasions at retail but still haven't seen Bret, Shawn, Goldust, Brodus, or Layla even once. It's like if you're not in the store as they're being stocked, you have no chance at the short packed figures. They really need to slow down on some of these guys as well. The closest Walmart to me has 4 pegs for basics and each is filled with nothing but Mysterio's and Morrison's from series 13 and 14. It's the only two guys they have and there is probably 8 or 10 of each.

oh man see the brodus set is hitting, i havent seen any of them It's the same up here. All you see are the basic 14 in Walmarts, and Survivor Series Heritage in Targets. The Mania Heritage was the first time I saw them today, and they only had Taker, Cena and Triple H. |

It is the after-christmas slow down where stores order less stock.

And I'm in NE and Central CT. It hasn't been that bad. RRH has been tough, I only saw it at one Kmart. Something like E12 was plentiful in my area. Seen E13 at three different Walmarts in the past week. I left whole cases behind since I already had them. I actually left E13 Rhodes and Ziggler all week at a Walmart before buying them using Kmarts price match on the Saturday before the sale ended. Two Vickies were also there. Not sure if B15 hit the area. Good thing I went with RSC. How come you guys don't post on the store findings board? I've been hunting WMH for weeks. Care to give away the location? |

East Windsor, CT WalMart. I just saw them today. And again, all they had were Undertaker, Cena, and Triple H. No Warrior, Eddie or Swagger. |
