Heres my question. They say Iron Sheik was a evenly distributed as the other figures, yet hes no where. Sold out. Everywhere. No signs of him ever appearing again. Do I buy him now at $40? Or wait? Not sure this one will ever grace a Walmart peg.

Not sure this one will ever grace a Walmart peg. Wait. He will be available eventually. Remember everyone paying 60+ for retro Kane? Then 6 months later they are 3.99 to 5.99 at almost every discount chain. Series 3 4 and 5 have all been spotted at 5 below and big lots.Series 6 at roses. Series 8 will show up somewhere if target and Wal-Mart don't get them.

Ryder and Sheik are still up for the $13.99.

I’ve gotta say that I’m very disappointed with the distribution of this series here in Canada. The Hasbro’s/Retro’s are my favorite series but we haven’t got anything beyond series 3 on shelves here. Walmart clearanced them out months ago and never stocked any more retro’s. Now the only place to find them is at Toys R Us for $19.99 still only series 3. I lucked out and scored Nakamura, Wyatt & Balor from Amazon but that’s about all I could find there that was worth picking up or not ridiculously over priced. Amazon has the NWO Macho man for $171 plus an additional $23 for shipping 😱

I love using the retro’s for customs to fill out my collection as well. I recently used a Dean Ambrose body with a basic Elias figure head that I personally think looks way better than the proto type image for series 10

I got Goldust, Hardy, and Angle in from Ringside today. holding out hope that Amazon doesn't cancel my Sheik & Ryder.
Angle is probably my least favorite in the line that I've bought so far. I really only got him because I needed a third to get over the free shipping mark. I would've liked to have gotten Goldust, Sheik, and Ryder honestly in one shot. The distribution on these has always been the biggest issue. I've never seen any in stores other than series 1. and series 1 took forever to find them all, because Warrior and Taker never stocked locally.

So anyone got any realistic thoughts on series 11? Or insider info...
Maybe something like:
Miz Rusev Batista Vader

Wonder if these will ever show up in Australia again. Haven't seen anything since series 6 which was out last year. Nothing new this year yet and series 5 was totally skipped. Not sure whether to just bite the bullet and order online but even that is quite hit and miss with how quickly Iron Sheik disappears.

I'm wondering if we even see series 11 in 2019. We waited such a long time to get series 7, things started to get backed up. We knew about series 10 late in 2018. And now with no sign of series 8 in stores which was suppose to hit in earl April, who knows whats going to happen. If I had to guess Ringside should have the preorder up for season 10 soon but probably won't release until around August and if that's the case they won't hit retail until December.

Crappy part is it ends up costing about $30 per figure aussie $.

He seems a bit random....although I suppose he’d fit with Sheik baby & JYD.
