Thanks for the heads up! I pre-ordered the retro macho on GameStop last year. Looking for retro series 8 & 9 now! Think he's talking about Retrofest, not regular Retros. Aware of what he was saying. I responded letting him know that I had that and I was, at the time, looking for those retros (Hence if anyone saw what I was looking for in the wild, at that time) they could respond.

I doubt they will have Retro 9 in stores. I hope they do, though. Mattel needs to get their distribution in order so we don't have to overpay for everything from ordering them online.

I heard that some states were starting to see series 8 here and there. And Canada supposedly is starting to get series 9 in at TRU. But doubt we will see those. I know that Walmarts next big shipment is coming mid-late July and there are no retros coming anytime soon.

Long time since I've posted and now seems like a perfect opportunity!
I'm from Omaha and have recently resumed collecting after being out of it for a long while.
I'm primarily focused on finding Mattel Retros and any Jakks or Hasbros i manage to run across.
As far as Retros i keep striking out at my local stores so this year I decided to go the "Mom & Pop" route and in doing this I've managed to score some great findings from all 3 Figure Lines!
I've stopped by:
Pop Culture Exchange in Omaha's Shoppes At Aksarben Plaza (Small display of various Figure Lines across different promotions. Some are MOC but most are Loose)
The Imaginarium Superstore in the Old Market District Downtown (HUGE selection featuring more Lines,Promotions and non figure collectables as well)
Ben's Game Zone in the neighborhood of Ralston (The figures are sort of tucked away in a corner,more MOC than Loose)
Here's what I've found so far in all 3 places
Hasbros: - Mountie - Shango (No Necklace) - Demolition (No Helmets) - Warrior (Series 2) - Boss Man (Series 1 WITH Nightstick!)
Jakks: - Kid Kash - Tyson Tomko (RA13) - Jaime Noble (RA2) - Hassan & Daivari (ADR14) - Chuck (WMX8 WITH 14KT Gold Belt) - Hardcore Holly (ROTR4) - Dan Severn - Lance Storm (UCF1) - Vince McMahon (BCA) - Jim Ross (BCA) - Brian Christopher (2 Tuff BCA) - HHH & Cactus Jack (Famous Scenes 2) - Umaga (Best Of 2007) - Mark Henry (BCA) - Flash Funk - Christian (Series 9 BCA) - Nasty Boys (CS12) - Demolition (CSTT5) - Raven (ROTR3) - Stone Cold (Fully Loaded Box Set) - Rosey (ADR6) - Stevie Richards (BOECW) - "Wildman" Marc Mero (Managers BCA)
Mattel - The Legacy Of The Undertaker 5 Pack (MOC!) - Retro Kevin Owens (Which had no price initially until i brought it up,the Owner suggested $5.99 to which i happily agreed,cool moment)
That's all for now,glad to be back in the habit!
