Mattel distribution in Canada is garbage...I would love to get my paws on a Diesel and a Nash. Probably be making a trip to the US in a few weeks...hoping I can dig up some new figs while I am down there. I usually hit the usual suspects (Walmart, Target, Fred Meyer) on my hunt. Was just put onto Big Lots reading this forum. Any other thoughts about good places to pick up figs (other than TRU since there isn't one anywhere close to me)

Look at the Canada board! Elite 16 has been spotted and they have the whole set!

If your coming to the U.S. try Sears. The ones attached to malls, not the stand alone hardware appliance stores. Most will say that they don't carry toys, but if you go in and go to the kids clothing section, you may be able to find a stand alone display of WWE elite, basic, and rumblers. Recently, Sears has been stocking E16 and Diesels have been found along with Slater.
I would assume they'll still have a WWE display through the holidays.

Check drug stores as well. Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Eckerd, Phar-Mor, etc. They won't have much of a selection, but they might have that older figure that you couldn't find anywhere else.

All these suggestions are on point, you'd be amazed where you'll find figures. I even heard of supermarkets carrying elites.

If its not by the boys clothes register in sears check by the tools thats where i found them. I also was told by sales person thats actually the department they belong in for some reason and during christmas shopping time thats where they put them. |

Drug stores typically have 1 or 2 basic figures, so don't expect much, but they do get some gems every now and again. My last two fig buys have been at Wal Greens.

Kroger is a grocery store and the Kroger Marketplace is a super grocery store, and they carry elites, basics, legends. But it has to be a marketplace where the carry furniture, toys, etc.
