That reminds me of when TRU had a boatload of E34 Paige figures Maybe she was doing an autograph signing. She did one at one of my TRUs so they got cases of just that figure. Definitely not at the Whitehall PA TRU. I think it was because it was the height of her popularity. |

The way Mattel is packing these cases is abhorrent. Same thing with the revived Legends series. Legends is fine. They were all pretty easy to find for months Weasel Heenan was easy to find. |

Any one want to take bets on which will happen first ?
Discount stores or Walmarts will get "target" bulldog elite 82 cases.

Went to Target in Knoxville tonight and got two British Bulldogs, a Jerry Lawler, and a Keith Lee! They also had a Chyna and Edge (Wrestlmania) but hit my limit and had to pass on those

Anyone finding these. Came across a case of 82 today with no davey boy. 2x balor and 2x bliss. Did grab chase Keith Lee and Morrison. Someone grabbed the king and gronk before me. Crazy they grabbed gronk but left the chase Lee. I'll take it though. That is why they made a figure of gronk. Found 2 cases so far, including 2 bulldogs in each and a chase Keith Lee |

He got them direct from Mattel. There is also a guy in a facebook group that seems to get cases of the exclusives even though he doesn't work for Walmart or Target. They must have a retailer license and purchased at least the minimum number of cases mattel required. I wonder what the minimum amount is? |

I wonder if Ringside will receive any Bulldogs. They do get some store exclusives sometimes.

Honestly, target has been strange lately, a little while ago, I found a lone rumble warrior just sitting on the pegs, no sign of any other rumble figures, then yesterday, found a lone bulldog with no sign of elite 82, if I was to take my best crack at it, I would say once the shelves get full they take the rest to the back and stash them there until they decide to re stock, it’s the only thing that makes sense, in your case I think there might have been what you were looking for in the back area

I’ve found Bulldog multiple times. Bought one left the rest. Also just found the Chase Lee. These were in NY.

Bought mine from the local flea market for $40 which is very fair considering I’ll never see that at retail around here.

I keep missing him in the Hudson valley area The only store I have even seen that wave in was Newburgh. Hell Monroe hasn’t even had an regular Elite series come in since last Sept/Oct according to their hand held device. |

I'm at the Newburgh store that just got another 2 cases and I missed out again or these were cases without him. I count 4 Lee (no chase) 3 Morrison, 2 Gronkowski and 2 kings (but there was someone who had one of each in hand and couldn't find Davey boy either) The hunt continues!

My mom found 2 Bulldogs today for me & she said no one else from the wave were on the pegs. I wonder if they're receiving 2 Bulldogs by themselves in repack boxes with other toys like the Rumble Figures were found and that's how some of their exclusives are being sent now?

If you happen to see another Davey boy would you mind picking one up for me? I'm having a much harder time than anticipated and I would like to get 2 to make a custom dynamite kid. If there is anything I can help you find as well.just let me know. Thank you |
