Went to my local walmart and its nothing like it used to be. They had 4-5 different people. A total of 15-20 figures. Slim Pickings. I went ahead and picked up the Mark Henry figure.
Hopefully Target or Toys R us has a better selection. I wish we had a K-Mart here in Dallas. The closest one is either Waco or Lubbock. Way to far to drive on lunch break.

My Walmart has been out of elites for prolly a month now. All they have for basics is Alex Riley and Rey Mysterio.

Basic 17 Henry? There's a ton on the pegs over here..literally around 15 of them.
The two Walmarts around here are out of Elites too. It's been two months without Elites on the Pegs.

For me it is a rare day to find a wwe mattel figure I actually want to buy. I usually just find the usual Cenas, Ortons, Mysterios.

Glad i shop online for everything. I get it way cheaper than the hunt and task prices of retail, plus get them all months before retail. Don't even got to worry about none of that. If I do chose to just get someone at retail, its always gonna be someone easy to find like Cena, ORton, Kofi Kingston, Evan Bourne, Sheamus etc.

Wal-Mart is usually worthless and is a waste time even going there. But lately the ones in my area have been doing slightly better.

My Walmart has been useless since ONE case of Elite 16 about 2 and a half months ago. I had already gotten everyone I needed from Elite 16 at Sears though....I haven't bought any wrestling figures from Walmart since I found the Bella Twins there in like March or April?
Still on the lookout for Elite 17 Mankind and Ryder...I doubt I'll find them at Walmart though, I think my best bet on those is to keep checking TRU and Sears.
And forget about Target,....my Target got a case of Basic 19 in July and that was the first wrestling figures they'd gotten since January.

For awhile, my Wal-Marts seemed to be on the rise, but lately they've been about as dead as can be. For about a month, they've had the pegs pretty much empty, with only 2 E15 Truths, and some Flex Force out for customers. I think the last new thing they got was the recent 2pks, and those sold over the 1st wkend they were out.
It's one thing for a store to have crap because of dull figures clogging the shelves. It's another to simply have nothing out for sale over extended periods of time. I'm guessing they're just dragging their feet until the holidays.

Mine was doing good since the reset, got in one case of E15, and all thats gone. One case of b18, gone. Just got a case of b19 yesterday. I found one e16 Rock yesterday and thats the only elite aside from an E14 Cena.

My walmart is the same way! They have maybe 5-10 basics at the most, no elites, and the rest are flex force figures. Very disappointing every time I go there.

someone told me wal-marts are purposely holding onto toy stock for the holiday season which means when they do finally put them out its going to be all out of date stuff. one of my wal-marts here has the entire garden section filled I mean FILLED with shipment boxes of toys, I asked if they could go back there and look and they told me they were told to not use any of that stock till the holiday season. I mean its a good move for holiday buyers but bad for us collectors since most of us wont need outdated figures at that time, by that time we will all be slobbering over the e19 pre orders to ship out haha.

I'm a fellow Dallas resident, east of the city towards Mesquite. Our Wal-Marts are sometimes better than our Toys R Us. The Wal-Mart off of I-30 and Broadway Blvd has pretty good stock usually. I just found a mustard yellow Sin Cara and Yokozuna there in the past two weeks from E15. The Toys R Us by Town East and 635 has been doing OK as well, they for some reason skipped E16 but I just picked up E17 Sheamus and Mankind from there on Friday.
However, if you find E16 anywhere other than Sears, please, do tell. For some reason it's missing in Dallas.

I said that almost a month ago when i went in got the last elite figure. It was e11 wade. I asked if there were more they said no. I went to h&g register notice a section blocked off looked in. Asked the employee if they had any more. He said no and there were a bunch of cases right behind him. I wanted to open them so bad. O well their loss not mine. I found them somewhere else |
