Brickseek showed 6+ in stock at a local Walmart this morning,so I made it just in time as a local flea market flipper/scalper had apparently convinced an employee to pull the new display out of the back. I literally pushed the scalper and a friend of his out of the way, and scored 2 Omega's, Cody and Jericho, and the only UFC McGregor in the shipper. The scalper and his buddy bought literally every other AEW figure, even taking the cardboard display with them. If I had got there 30 seconds later, I wouldn't have got what I did. These scalper's are literally killing it for collector's..... Glad you got yours. |

Nothing still in Cali so this is how it feels to be a collector in other parts of the country 😯 Yes this is how it feels to not live in Mattel County now you get to suffer like the rest of us 😈 |

(sorry for the late replies everyone)
I'm in Houston, Texas. Almost all local WMs are showing them "In Stock +6" but only 1 actually put them out as of this morning. The third one I checked had already been pillaged but had a single Cody left that I nabbed. After reading a few other users on here having success with employees pulling cases out for them from the back I finally tried my hand and asked a guy stocking shelves at the 4th location I tried. He immediately told me they never got them in upon me asking but then scanned the tag on the shelf and got a "+24" hit so he went to the back and wheeled out the entire modular for me a few minutes later. Interestingly enough the modulars are apparently being shipped to Walmart pre-assembled with figures in place as it was a box big enough to fit a television.
The reason the pic is by produce is because that's where their stock room is. Lol.
No Brandi. No chases. Didn't do a figure count because I was just too excited to get them in hand finally and didn't want to hold the employee up any longer.
My Kenny had 2 bum ankles (extremely loose, wobbly, this was the only major quality control issue I had between all 5 figures. I'll post my full take on them a little later but for now just know they are awesome. Believe the hype) so I went back about 2 hours later to grab another one and oddly enough the modular was put back into the stock room instead of left on the floor to be sold.
So I will say, be polite, be courteous, but don't be afraid to ask. Had I of not, I have no idea when or even if I would have gotten these figures.

Few local had stock on brickseek. One had 6+ but not out and they told me they either didn’t have them yet or they already sold. I know they’re in the back
Went to the other and they had a shipper with two Omegas and I left them both

 Don't give up! They actually exist! If my Walmart looked like this I'd be excited for the Unrivaled figs but I'd load up on Gatorade Zero too. |

For those that found the cube...how many omegas were there and how many mcgregors/khabib? There was at least 7 or 8 Omega's. And I got the only McGregor, and the cube was just pulled from the back when I got there. |

I tried to tell myself I would not go crazy and hunt for these but brickseek said my Walmart’s had them in stock and sure enough, the pegs were empty, no big display, and the worker there said they’re there but they’re in the back and check back tomorrow. I wanted to crash my car on the way home.

My WalMart still has no figures, none either in a 100 mile radius. They have the modular set. Went in today and saw they had gotten a full restock on rings and belts. Finally bit the bullet and scratched an itch to buy something and got a ring.

Found them in Ohio finally. It was a half hour drive and when I get there they have a sign that says two per person for the aew and UFC figs. They just had six figures. Two Codys a Jericho a Kenny and the Bucks. This is getting ridiculous.

The east coast still has nothing showing up. Anyone know if the shipper is a different code? I know some shipper inventories in the past have been kept separate from the normal codes.

Yeah, I was wondering the same but I just think it hasn’t hit here yet. I’m in PA and keep expanding my search and there seems to be nothing in the tri-State area. I did see someone mention that PA wouldn’t get them till the end of the month which is just weird to me, but I am getting burnt out with the process already. I can’t picture my reaction when I actually see green and in-stock! |

None showing at all in my midwest area yet. 15 stores within 75 miles and none have shown any in stock yet.

I found the shipper 4 times but no chases yet. Has anybody found a chase on a display yet? Or out of a case of 6?

Found a shipper in Paducah KY! No chase figs, but I’m super thankful for the awesome guy in toys who helped me find the container in the back!
Edit: he found me at checkout and gave me the top of the display!

Is it always like this for the northeastern area to receive figs later than most? (like NJ/NY?PA for example) Is priority toward the southern states like Texas?

Scored them today. I had took a chance and drove 45 minutes to Danville KY based on brickseek, but mission accomplished. I'll have a happy little boy when he gets home
