I've been informed that the truck that is carrying the figures will be arriving today at my WM store. It was delayed due to the storm that popped in this week. Fingers cross when I go back to check this evening. One Walmart told me same thing but they wouldn’t be stocked till Saturday morning.Anyway good luck |

PopVinyls.com posted a tweet with a map where they've been found. It's not that helpful but figured I'd share it. Keep in mind, it's not "found statewide" but found in 'least one store. |

I’m in the northwest suburbs of Chicago and there’s been nothing up here. I’m guessing the one Walmart it popped up in was right on the KY boarder since there’s a distribution center down there. |

Hoping next week the floodgates are opened |

Just looked up on Brickseek and for the first time it's showing in stock for Colorado and Nebraska. 70 miles away is the closest one so I'll probably wait

I can imagine Jazzwares is entirely embarrassed. I mean what a failure of a launch.

I just return from my second trip to WM today. No luck, just excuses galore from the manager this round.

If I don’t find them tomorrow I’m just buying the set from Ringside. I can’t keep searching during a pandemic and getting nothing for the risk

My Walmart’s have no wrestling figures at all. Really was hoping to find at least the ring today, and Omega and Jericho are must haves

Jazware is the joke big time! And then under doing a 1st wave is the dumbest thing WalMart for their part did what they could, they put rings and belts out. Jazzwares just completely undershipped, essentially they made no risk to pack the stores out. Shame too because there was legitimate buzz around these. They underproduced and shipped playing it safe and I think it cost them a whole lot more in terms of perception and long term standing than had they risked it with their product. |

I agree, I think it was pretty dumb. They short packed Brandi, they already had the only possible problem covered by doing that

I’m curious if AEW heads knew that Jeremy purposely under-shipped their product to Walmart. I get them wanting to Sell through available product to show Walmart that it sells but they had a chance to capitalize on wrestling fans looking for product to purchase and they crapped the bed. Now fans are pissed because they were fed the August 3rd date and 5 days later and most stores still haven’t received crap. |
