On Friday there were two full pegs, but a day later there were zero around.

Someone bought them all. They were selling for about $40 on eBay. Someone probably bought them all with the 20% off coupon and made a good profit on eBay.

It's not even that great. People need to stop being so stupid and feeding these scalpers. It really seems like it's getting out of control.
Only 1 figure have I had to resort to Ebay for (Legends 6 Eddie - never ever saw it). I may have to go there for B14 HBK, looks like I will never find him, either (great job on the horrible case pack, Mattel, B14 junk is warming up a Wal-Mart near me).
But the more people buy from scalpers, the more scalpers there will be, and the distribution, which sucks, will suck even worse, so all these impatient people are just shooting themselves in the foot. A fool and his money will soon be parted - I pity the fool!

The funniest thing about this is that every Toys R Us in my area (5) has had tons of them this weekend. Maybe they'll be fewer once the sale kicks in, but there really has been a ton near me.

I went to a TRU today and found 1, but considering that was all I wanted I snatched it up and had a death grip on it while looking at other stuff. This has been the only one I have seen after checking a total of 3 stores.

I got 2 since I was eligible for 2 with spending $30...but people buying all of them and reselling are jerks and the people who buy from those people for scalper prices are stupid and impatient...

I bought 4 of them at my TRU. One for my son, one for my nephew and Two for an international member on here. I left two of them on the pegs. I know they are gone by now!

The worst part about it is that these scalpers aren't even wwe fans, they just get a list of hot toys from a more experienced scalper and they ransack the stores for the goods.

My store is holding them till the 28th. It is just easier for us with the sale. Exactly, with Taker featured in their "Big Toy Book" offer, there is no way he's gonna sell out before. They are either in back or the TRU's only got a small amount now.

Some stores are holding them until the 28th....others put them out and they are all on eBay for crazy prices.
I gotta question the logic though....why would anybody pay a scalper $40+ for something that in 6 days TRU is going to be giving away for FREE (with a $30 purchase)?

I just spoke to a TRU store Manager this morning. He said these figures should have definitely been held until October 28. This store has over 20 of them that will hit the pegs Next Sunday morning.
