Got omega this morning. Kind of surprised how awesome it is. I wanted to hate these so much because they looked cheap, but I love the detail especially on the boots/kickpads. Only thing I hate about it is the skin tone. He’s way too pale There is definitely room for improvement. The skin tones can use work, and Jeremy has said as much. I'd like to see a more expansive parts library. I'd like to see a little more texture to the hair sculpts. But the attention to detail on this line has really blown me away. It really seems like they've gone out of their way to get the details of the gear and person down. And when you pick the figure up for the first time, it just feels like a quality product. |

Would it be easier to brickseek the UFC figures since they also come in the shipper? because I have seen a couple stores go from in stock to out of stock too quickly for a scalper and they dont even have the shipper out yet.

That's what I did to figure out if the store was getting a single case or the shipper. The woman at who handles in-store pickup told me that their entire shipper sold out from online orders. So I think that might explain why the counts are dropping so quickly. I think it's online orders clearing them out just as often as scalpers buying them up. Of course it could also be scalpers buying online. |

Brickseek is very finicky 🤷🏻♀️ I think the online orders are really throwing off counts. Maybe somebody who works at Walmart can explain it better. But the way I understand it, when there's an online order, it pulls those figures out of the system. But the product is still on the shelf until an employee comes and actually fills the order. So there's sort of limbo where the figures are out of Brickseek, but can still be sitting on the floor for someone else to buy. But either way, this should definitely drive up RSC sales to future waves. I know I'm more than happy to pay a few extra bucks to never deal with this again lol. |

That's what tipped me off Wednesday night. I saw stock for AEW got 6+, so I checked for UFC too, and they were in stock as well. Knew it had to be the shipper. The next morning when I went at open, it wasn't out, and the toy manager could not find it in the back. I gave him my cell and asked him to call me if he found it or got any more in stock. About 30 minutes later he called me and said he found the shipper in the back. He put it out and kept it covered for me until I got back about 10 minutes later. Really cool of him to do that. |

ATL metro has had ZERO, which for a major wrestling market is staggering. The good news is, they’ve finally hit it seems. The bad news is, looks like they’re going quick. I placed an order for 3 figures at the Alpharetta store and they cancelled it. But now they’re showing in stock at the store near my mom’s house, so my stepdad is going to take a look for me while I’m out of town. I tried searching here, but the closest in stock is 20 miles away, so that ain’t happening. |

Still nothing. I know of one Walmart in my area that had the AEW figures and they got 24 total. A worker told me that directly, it could be awhile before they get more. A couple weeks he said.

Is anyone able to order online for pick up? I placed an order and it was canceled, but when they went in stock at other stores and I tried to place an order, not a single store in GA nearby or where I currently am in FL, let you place an order for pickup. I don’t know if it is just those stores or if they made it in store only due to people complaining about canceled orders.

Came across the tail end of a shipper tonight. Snagged a Jericho, Cody, and Omega. Still on the lookout for the Bucks, who of course are the only two my kid cares about. Also, I knew the skin tones were bad but sheesh.

Has anyone seen the chase figures in the wild? I picked up a regular Jericho but I haven't opened him yet on the outside chance I get lucky. Wish they had put the belt in both versions.

Nope, nobody has reported finding a variant at Walmart and none have popped up for sale online. Pretty sure the variants were all held back from the first shipments (like Brandi). Ringside confirmed they received some (and accidentally sent a Jericho to a customer in place of his regular one), but they also received Brandi figures so their shipment was different from what was supplied to Walmart. |

Picked up the whole set in Athens Ga today. No sign of the shipper. Pegs were full.

Been casually checking because they show stock. Found the Set and UFC stuff on an in aisle end cap. No shipper and not on the designated pegs. Check those end caps.
No Brandis but plenty of everyone else. Fewer Bucks than the others. I only wanted Jericho. Basically his NJPW gear. Really nice other than the pale skin. I’ll definitely get Goldust and Pockets. Probably Hangman and MJF too. I really didn’t need another line to focus on, so I’m gonna be super selective. Put off the Bubbly exclusive too long and now it’s back order 2. Maybe I’ll get it for myself for Xmas...
