I was at Target today and they had 2 Sin Cara Elites on the pegs, but nothing else new. Just a couple Elite Finalys from yesteryear.
He was the gold paint version, so I don't think someone returned them. Would someone buy every other figure from that case, including both Mysterios, and leave both Caras?
Very strange. Any theories?

Well my Walmart got a set of elite 15 in and it had 3 Sin Caras, 2 R truths, 1 bourne, 1 Henry and 1 Mysterio and no yoko so my guess is that yours got elite 15 in and someone hid the Caras and they were put back on the shelf.

I went to Sears 1 week ago today. They had 3 x Cara, 2 x Truth, 1 x Henry. I bought a Henry and Cara. I went today to see if anything was new. They didn't sell one figure since last week. I guess elites aren't that hot.

They may not have sat the entire case out? Its happened my area to. The stock is still sitting on the shelves and the boss tells the employee to go fill the shelves up so they just pull out a case from the back and can only fit 2-3 figures on there then just throws the rest of the case in the back.

Target only puts out what they have room for. They could have put out the rest of the case earlier and then restocked with the 'overstock' Caras later.

They didn't put out the whole case? Or someone did have enough for all of the set and left him because he's 2 per case? I know his were the only Elite figures left at my Sears this past week. Last Sunday I went they had a few E14 Cena(2)/Taker(3) plus Series 15 Rey (2) & Cara (2) and when I went back on Friday only the two Sin Cara figures remained.

Target gets what's called "Repack boxes" from the distribution center where they piece out cases and send only what stores need to fill it, so they aren't overloaded with product.
According to corporate policy, if there is two peghooks, you only need two items for it to be considered "full."

Well if they put out 8 elite figures you know it was a full case and I asked people at Target and Walmart if they had more in the back and they said no.

My target has nothing but Elite Takers.
OT
Probably just returns.The only explanation I could conceive.

I guess elites aren't that hot. they are they just make too many of the unwanted ones and too few of the wanted ones |
