Just hit up three Target Stores and a Wal-Mart and came up with nothing. No new Legends, no DOD, no AEW, no nothing. Anybody finding anything here at all?
Nope -- same. SoCal has to be one of the WORST markets -- I think there's just too little supply for all the collectors in a huge metro area. I honestly stopped going to stores because it became too frustrating -- and hunting down figures should only be fun.
When you can't find anything at any time -- it's no longer fun...

Target Burbank has 1 Wrestlemania Goldberg, and 2 WM Edges. They also have the full wave of the Stilt Man Marvel wave...

After not finding any in the San Fernando Valley for months now, I ended up down in south Orange County today and did pretty well at a few Walmart and Targets. Got a full set of WM Elites, May Young, and all of DoD 2 except Kane. Kane was the only thing missing from the Mania shipper at the San Clemente Walmart.

Were most of the stores well stocked -- or just one or two?
I'm in SF Valley and it's just depressing to collect here. I was surprised to hear it was really better in OC...

I still wouldn't say well stocked but better stocked than SFV for sure. I also only went to stores in OC that were pretty far out, like Ranch Santa Margareta & Foothill Ranch. Nothing that was right off the 5. On top of the wrestling stuff I saw a lot of older NECA that you never see around here, like Bebop and Rocksteady, older Gremlins like the carolers and stripe. MOTU stuff. I've only ever seen He-Man and Skeletor in SFV. Down there I got Mer Man, Roboto, Zodiac. But just like SFV, a lot of weasel suits and no Marvel Legends

Any chance you saw that NECA Krang? Still want that so bad!

Found AEW series 3 today at Targets all over the valley. Still a few Riho and Young Bucks left at North Hollywood and Van Nuys. One weird thing. They were $22.49 at the Empire Center Target in Burbank but $19.99 at all the other Targets

I managed to get a set of series 3 today that I'm keeping carded as I previously got a set from Ringside which I opened.

No chases. I've been keeping an eye out for Krang for you. I've still never seen one in stores. Found a bunch of NECA TMNT today at the NoHo Target. Rat King but no Krang

I hit up seven different Target Stores today and one Wal-Mart. Epic fail. Not a single interesting thing at any store.

There is a Jerry Lawler and British Bulldog at the Burbank Target. I hid the Bulldog behind the Wrekkin Mobile. I hope someone gets it (and that I'll get good karma, as I'm currently trying to get the Covid vaccine!)

Assuming it’s the one at the empire center, I checked today and there’s nothing behind it so i think your good karma won

SO sorry man. I thought about hiding it somewhere else that might be harder to find -- but it felt so awkward to take a toy out of the aisle and hide it somewhere else. But I posted as soon as I left the store -- hoping someone would read it and find it. Damn

No prob, thanks for trying! I've been sleeping on checking this forum as of late. Just hit up a few Targets again this morning... nothing haha. Say, do you guys ever find stuff at the smaller "neighborhood" Targets? I usually don't bother as I've never actually found anything worthwhile at those.

I actually picked up this year's Royal Rumble wave at one of those small Targets. They are really hit and miss. It's very random what they get and they don't usually get full cases. BTW. I also looked for that Bulldog at Burbank yesterday lol

Damn it -- I was REALLY hoping someone from this Forum would find the Bulldog. It's the first time I've seen something at the Burbank Empire Blvd. Target in a while -- usually that store is such a dumpster fire.
It's so depressing to go searching for action figures in the Valley and LA though...

San Diego, CA
The Walmart and Target on College Ave both have Bianca Belair 81 while the Target also has Elite 82 minus Balor and Alexa. There's also a Daniel Bryan 79 there too as well as Chyna.
Grossmont Target has Macho Man, Andre, and Chyna.
