Central Coast/Monterey Bay WWE Figure Findings Thread

[doctorwhofan]

I thought I'd start a WWE Figure Findings thread that covers the Central Coast and Monterey Bay because I know there is a lot of WWE figure collectors in the Central Coast and Monterey and the surrounding cities,
Yesterday Dad went back to the Kmart in Salinas and found nothing but WWE Superstars Ultimate Fan Packs of Bayley on clearance there and no trace of WWE Superstars Dolls and WWE figures.  Next Dad headed to Walmart in Salinas and found no trace of WWE figures and other WWE merchandise.  I don't understand why the Salinas Walmart is very slow at stocking WWE figures and they haven't had any for weeks since New Year's Day

Dad went back to the Salinas Walmart yesterday and once again found no WWE figures on the shelves and I cannot figure out why the Salinas Walmart "Westridge Center" does not carry WWE figures but the other Walmart in Harden Ranch Plaza also in Salinas has loads of WWE figures even some of the Elite WWE figures are found there as well.  Do all Walmarts have rules and limits on what WWE figures the stores can carry?

I'm about given up on the Salinas Walmart "Westridge Center" because for the umpteenth time Dad has gone there they never seem to have WWE figures and the section that they have for them in the toy section is really small and has no trace of WWE figures or anything else WWE related in there.  But it seems that the other Walmart in Salinas in Harden Ranch Plaza seems to have the bigger selection of WWE figures in the Central Coast.  What's up with the Walmart's in Salinas?

Walmart’s in this area just suck

I had to go to the dentist for an exam today but I was able to find some amazing WWE things to tell all you Central Coast WWE figure collectors out there.  I stopped at the Salinas Kmart and found nothing but a whole clearance full of WWE merchandise and among the things I found were WWE Superstars Fashion Dolls which were as follows,
1. Basic Alicia Fox Doll
2. Basic Charlotte Flair Doll
3. Basic Eva Marie Doll
4. Basic Naomi Doll
5. Fashion Collection Sasha Banks Doll
6. Fashion Collection Alexa Bliss Doll
7. Fashion Collection Brie Bella Doll
8. Fashion Collection Nikki Bella Doll
9. Basic Becky Lynch Doll
These WWE Superstars Fashion Dolls are on clearance for $15,00 but if you have a Kmart coupon you can get either doll at a better deal at the register which is how I got my Becky Lynch WWE Superstars Fashion Doll for only $12 but surprisingly the Ronda Rousey Fashion Doll was nowhere to be found in the clearance section.  Later I also came across WWE Zombies Figures for $10,99 and they also had WWE Elite Figures for $15,00 but only had AJ Styles in the whole clearance section.  I then found a WWE retro edition wrestling ring playset but I passed it up because it was $20,00 on clearance but I'll get it when the price goes down

Once again for the umpteenth time the Salinas Walmart "Westridge Center" has not restocked their WWE figures section and Dad looked at Walmart for me and what he told me was that Walmart had no WWE figures on the shelves and I know that many of you mentioned that Walmart has a figure display full of WWE figures but the Salinas Walmart had no display shelf in the store. Has the Salinas Walmart been slow to recieve WWE figures?

The Salinas Kmart still has the WWE Superstars Dolls on clearance and they had the Alicia Fox doll but she wasn't on sale yet so I am gonna wait til the Alicia Fox doll gets real cheap in price. Dad also found the Naomi doll there but she wasn't on sale either.  But at least the Salinas Kmart is very very smart at stocking WWE figures.  Next Dad stopped at the famous unlucky Walmart in Westridge Center and no luck finding WWE figures there either

Today I thought I would go out and have some fun and I decided to do some WWE figure findings and I have loads of news to report for all you Central Coast/Monterey Bay WWE figure collectors.  It seems that luck has finally been good at the Salinas Walmart  "Westridge Center" as I started my day at Walmart when I first searched the toy section and I was just about to give up looking for WWE figures when Dad reached into the cart and in his hands Dad had an Elite Figure of John Cena and I asked Dad where he had found it and he showed me where the WWE section of Walmart was and surprisingly for some reason the Westridge Center Walmart's WWE figure section is in with the board games section and it was one tiny shelf but I of course passed on the John Cena Elite Figure.  The other WWE Elite Figures they had was Sasha Banks and AJ Styles but if you happen to live in Salinas or cannot find an WWE Elite John Cena figure in the San Jose Walmarts I recommend you make the trip to the Westridge Center Walmart in Salinas because they had lots of Elite John Cena figures on the shelves. Walmart also had Elite Figures of Dusty Rhodes if anyone is interested in getting one.  Then Mom went to Kmart in Salinas and came out with the basic doll of Eva Marie from the WWE Superstars doll series and from what my mother reported to me there is almost no trace of WWE Superstars Dolls and Kmart was nearly sold out of them.  My mother also found a Fashion Collection Eva Marie WWE Superstars Doll but it appeared to have a loose arm and so Mom was gonna get it but it was too late as the Eva Marie doll lost her arm.  But my basic Eva Marie doll was worth it today and I returned to my hotel with happiness and a lucky find today and that ended my figure findings for today

P.S. Just so everyone knows I will be out of action on March 19th because I have a dental operation and so I'll need to recover at my hotel for awhile so I won't be able to shop Kmart for WWE figure findings for a short time.  So please be patient for more figure findings and store reports from me

Today we weren't planning on going out since it's Saturday but Mom and Dad had to get some things out of our storage locker and so it gave me the chance to stop at the Salinas Kmart for a short trip and I was able to get the WWE Superstars doll of Alicia Fox for just $10 and there was only two Alicia Fox dolls on the clearance shelf and they also had the Fashion Collection Naomi doll but she is still not on sale yet but Kmart has a whole bunch of the Fashion Collection Naomi dolls and they have restocked the shelves with loads of Eva Marie dolls and Becky Lynch dolls and the Fashion Collection dolls of The Bella Twins.  Lastly I checked the WWE section of Kmart and found an Elite figure of Daniel Bryan and an Elite figure of Naomi but I passed them up.  I also found a WWE wrestling ring for the Mattel WWE Power Slammers figures but it wasn't on sale and the Mattel WWF retro wrestling ring is still at Kmart but still is not on sale.  But that's all I found today and I can say is that i'm happy with my Alicia Fox doll

Today was an extremely lucky day for me as I went on a mega shopping spree at Northridge Mall in Salinas and came across some incredible wrestling figure finds.  First I went to JCPenney and happened to find an incredible sale on action figures which included some WWE figures and what JCPenney had in WWE figures was the WWE Zombies figures series and they had an Undertaker Zombies figure and an Asuka Zombies figure but they had only two WWE Monsters figures of Jake The Snake and as a reminder the WWE figures are 40% off if you want to stop by JCPenney to search for WWE figures and to be honest I didn't even think or know that JCPenney carried WWE figures so if you cannot find any WWE figures try visiting JCPenney.  JCPenney also had Marvel figures there and I just grabbed the only Nick Fury figure they had on the shelf and got it for a good deal. Next I found the Northridge Gamestop and when me and Dad went in there to search for video games we found some Mattel WWE Retro Elite figures and the figures that they had was Macho Man Randy Savage and Rowdy Roddy Piper and Gamestop sells them for $16,99 and I had never seen these figures before so I wonder if they are a Gamestop exclusive?  And my shopping spree ended on a high note and an awesome figure finding report to share

Let me tell you if you are in Salinas or Watsonville searching for WWE figures in the Monterey Bay a store to not bother with is Big Lots because when my mother went to the Salinas Big Lots to see if they had some of the WWE Superstars Dolls there the Big Lots in Salinas had one tiny shelf of toys and all that the Salinas Big Lots had was WWE Elite figures for $24 and not one single WWE Superstars doll was there.  Then I checked JCPenney and they still have the same WWE Monsters and Zombies series of figures still at 40% off.  Finally I checked Walmart and found a double pack of WWE Elite figures for $15,99 and by comparison Walmart in Salinas has the better deal for WWE Elite figures than Big Lots.  I don't know why Big Lots sells WWE figures at expensive prices than Walmart?  But if you are a WWE figure collector avoid any Big Lots whenever possible

Today I headed to Marina and visited Target to check out the WWE sale they had and let me tell you if you're visiting Monterey good luck finding WWE figures at Target because Target absolutely has low stock of WWE figures whatsoever.  The Marina Target has one teeny tiny section for WWE figures and is impossible to find in the whole toy section and once Mom and I finally found it I took a peek and all I found was WWE Elite figures of Bayley and Alexa Bliss for $15 and also giant figures called WWE Big Figs and Target has loads of the replica WWE Championship Title Belt.  But what was impossible to find was the WWE Superstars Dolls and it seemed that the Marina Target doesn't carry them because Mom and I searched every doll section in the girls toys and found none and there was not even a display shelf for them not even price tags that mentioned them.  And it makes me think that Mom and I missed the doll shelves with the WWE Superstars Dolls because the Marina Target had no trace of them.  My advice if you are in Monterey avoid Marina's Target and head to Sand City's Target

If you are a WWE figure collector and want to search the Marina Target store for any figures you may need that you can't find in Salinas or the Bay Area you may notice that the Marina Target is in a shopping center called The Dunes On Monterey Bay and is a really awesome shopping area that seems like a shopper's paradise that you'll never leave and is kind of like a Disneyland or Walt Disney World of shopping.  In addition to the Marina Target The Dunes On Monterey Bay also features Kohl's that also may stock WWE figures Michaels Bed Bath And Beyond Best Buy Party City and a Gamestop for searching for WWE figures too.  It's right off the freeway when you are heading to Monterey and the two ways to get into The Dunes is there's an entrance that leads straight into the Target parking lot and is located next to a medical clinic/fitness center and the second entrance to the Best Buy/Kohl's side of The Dunes will lead you to the Best Buy parking lot which is shared with Kohl's and Old Navy and is located next to a hill with a Marriott Springhill Suites hotel and when I have seen this side of The Dunes I always think of The Dunes as a resort now.  But if you are a WWE figure collector this shopping area is a great place to search for WWE figures in the Monterey Bay
Be sure to check it out when you can

Today I headed back to Marina but this time went to the Marina Walmart and just like the Marina Target the WWE figure section is small and almost has no figures but the Marina Walmart had endcap after endcap of WWE Elite figures and some of the Elite figures I found had a "FIRST TIME IN LINE" disclaimer on the boxes so i'm guessing that these must the new Walmart WWE Elite figures everyone's talking about.  Among the Elite figures I found were a John Cena figure in green wrestling attire and a Elite Mandy Rose figure but I passed it up at the last minute.  But the WWE Elite figures endcaps were scattered everywhere and filled with different WWE Elite figures and another endcap had loads of the Finn Balor figure and many others so I advise you be sure to check any Walmarts for these hidden WWE endcaps with Elite figures because they are a hidden gem in Walmart.  By the way the Elite figures I found are $9,99 each and the Marina Walmart also had the double packs of WWE Elite figures too

This afternoon I went to Harden Ranch Plaza in Salinas and came across some deals to tell you about today.  First I went to Gamestop and found that the WWE Retro Elite figures are now on clearance at Gamestop for $18,99 but the only one they had was Shawn Michaels and they did not have any other figures at all.  Then I stopped at the Salinas Target which was next door to Gamestop and found nothing but a tiny shelf of WWE figures in the toy section and they did not have much of a figure selection except for Finn Balor and John Cena Elite Figures.  And when I saw this it shocked me that this is how Target treats the WWE figures sections in their stores and just like Marina's Target they had no WWE Superstars Dolls anywhere.  I can't understand why is it that San Jose and the Bay Area's Targets have the biggest WWE section of figures but not the Monterey Bay's Targets?

Yesterday Mom went to do some Easter shopping at Kmart and she reported to me that the Salinas Kmart has no WWE figures on sale and you might think because of Easter a lot of people buy WWE figures to put in their kids Easter baskets and plus when Mom was searching Kmart for WWE figures they were closing early for no reason whatsoever
Doctorwhofan

[doctorwhofan]

Mom went to the Salinas Walmart on Saturday and the whole WWE section was wiped out and there were no figures to be found whatsover and then Mom went to the Salinas Kmart and no luck finding figures there either.  It seems that people bought WWE figures for Easter gifts and that probably explains why WWE figures were scarce at Walmart and Kmart

Monday I went to the Harden Ranch Walmart in Salinas and searched for WWE figures and surprisingly the Salinas Walmarts do not have the WWE figures under lock and key like Walmart does now.  But I found loads of Elite John Cenas and Mandy Rose figures but they had an Alicia Fox Elite figure but I passed it up but if it's still there i'll probably buy it with my birthday money.  Walmart also had double packs of WWE Elite figures too
Doctorwhofan

[doctorwhofan]

What's up with Kohl's not having WWE figures?  I was just at the Salinas Kohl's today and they had zero WWE figures and nothing else WWE related was to be found at Kohl's and after all i've heard so much about WWE figures being found at Kohl's I took a peek and found no WWE figures and all that Kohl's carries is non WWE action figures and infant toys.  I don't know why Kohl's hasn't had WWE figures in years but it's a store to avoid in Salinas if you're looking for WWE figures

I almost didn't go figure hunting since today is Mother's Day but I headed to Walmart and the Salinas Walmart seemed to have a lonely shelf with not so many figures and the only figures they had loads of was Elite John Cena figures and one Elite Charlotte Flair figure and one Mandy Rose Elite figure.  And the Salinas Walmart had loads of WWE replica championship belts out of their boxes and were scattered around the shelves with pieces missing and I have never noticed this at any Walmart before or any store.  Mom and I then looked for the hidden endcaps of WWE Elite figures like the Marina Walmart has but every single endcap was full of Mother's Day cards and merchandise and there was no WWE figures in the clearance section either.  I was gonna stop at the Dollar Tree to see if they had any more WWE figures but I had to go back to my hotel to prepare for my mom's Mother's Day Dinner
