Anybody have memorable finds of extremely outdated WWE Figures in stores?
In 2006 found a Lita & Masked Kane WWF Bobble Head at my local Kmart. A Dollar General in my area had a Chyna, Sable, Steve Blackman & Taka WWF Bend-Ems back around 2007-2008 ish. A CVS i went to had a Eric Bischoff Ruthless Aggression figure in 2010. & a Big-Lots in 2003 had multiple BCA Figures.

Found the Classic Superstars 3 Packs Series with the Demolition and Rock Family in A1 toys in 2012. Weird as I have no idea how they managed to get cases of them in 2012.

I got a Bendems Goldust in 2001. I believe it was at Walmart, but could've been Zellers.
Not figure related, but I found WWF Valentines from 2000 (which I had bought when they first came out) at a Dollar Store around 2010/2011.

At my local Toyworld, there was a Deluxe Aggression 6 Kenny that stuck around until mid 2009 from memory. His Deluxe Aggression 9 as Kenny Dykstra stuck around for a bit too.
Another local Toyworld had Ruthless Aggression 23 Triple H, Rey Mysterio, and Paul London towards the end of 2010.

My local Toy Town had a WCW Disco Inferno from 2000 until the store closed in 2006. It hung on the peg unwanted throughout the years and witnessed figures evolve from BCA's to RA's.
I knew some of the staff and they called the figure part of the furniture.

Well into the Mattel era I found a Jakks TTL WrestleMania 17 Commissioner Foley on the pegs at a Walmart. A week earlier they had taken down all the shelves/aisles redid the floor. Then when they rebuilt them it was in a different direction. Instead of facing front to back they put them left to right. so I am guessing it was somehow stuck between the aisles until they pulled them up

I used to always see BCA Dr. Death and Jacqueline long after BCA was discontinued. I guess nobody really wanted to buy either one.

Kmart always had some stranglers I remember seeing Jakks figures well into 2010. Should of snagged all of them in 2009/2010 as much as I could.
I remember seeing like a bendy Undertaker when he was the ABA at Kmart in the Summer of 2008 so that had to have good 5 or 6 years on em.
I remember seeing Elite Series 2 Cody Rhodes stay at a local Walmart for a good 2 years. Even more so, I remember my local Walmart ordered a disgusting amount of Elite 18 I think it was? Like so many. The Brodus Clay from that series stayed there for a good 3 years.
