I predict it will be like the Superstars line and Walmart will completely skip stocking the second wave. See does nobody at Mattel or Walmart see the problem with this??? When you have an EXCLUSIVE LINE..... YOU CAN'T "SKIP A WAVE" There's nowhere else for customers to get them! Argh I hate Walmart exclusives - I ordered Superstars Macho Man, that was scheduled to arrive on 12/2/22 - currently "delayed" indefinitely. We need to petition to put a stop to Walmart exclusives, this is ridiculous. ALSO..... why are they "skipping waves" when the shelves look like the photo I posted?

Hope they’re not gonna be random online only because I want that Torrie Wilson when it comes out buy 3 or 4 and return the non-Torries if that’s what it takes it shouldn’t be that hard just to get a certain figure though

My Walmart pegs are totally full of everything. As far as the RA line goes they can't sell the Batista figures.

I’ve never found 1 single RA series fig at retail The 1 Shawn Michaels I found at a local Walmart (that I bought) had a box that has been beaten to all hell. Only RA figure I’ve seen at retail. Bought all of Series 2 online.

Wondering if maybe Steve gave an update at some point and I missed it..... Anyone know anything about Walmart's Ruthless Aggression series? I feel like we saw series 1 late last fall .... and that was it. Shouldn't we be seeing something in stores by now? I'm less concerned about series 2 but I really would like to order the upcoming Eric Bischoff.... my frustration with these "Walmart Exclusives" that never turn up at any known Walmart is off the charts..... I really wish they'd stop giving Walmart anything exclusive as it 100% always leads to consumer frustration. I've been checking my four closest Walmarts pretty regularly - to say the least, they are not stocking much: Anyone have any info in Ruthless Aggression? Any links? Is Ringside picking this up? We are one month removed from Christmas. Surely a vet like you shouldn’t forget this happens. Every. Flipping. Year. Pump up those numbers. Those are rookie numbers!

We are one month removed from Christmas. Surely a vet like you shouldn’t forget this happens. Every. Flipping. Year. Pump up those numbers. Those are rookie numbers! I do remember. Doesn't make it right or acceptable - and Target doesn't seem to have this problem. Not even close. Overall Target has been doing a pretty great job with their exclusives - most are available easily both online AND in stores - even in the month following Christmas. Even after all these years it still blows my mind that any Walmart allows their shelves to look like this when they have exclusive figures that are not made available at all.

ask walmart’s terrible ordering managers I work at Walmart, this position doesn't exist. If you can find the tag but no figures, get an employee to scan it and press the "item is out of stock" button on their phone/devices. This will trigger the system to order another case that will arrive within a few days. It will be on a pallet that makes its way to the salesfloor at about 9:30pm, that's the best time to act. There is a possibility that it wont actually get stocked and end up in a locked trailer, at which point it would be up to a low level employee to accurately scan and pick out the appropriate freight that needs to be stocked. The turn over rate of employees is astonishing, and inaccuracy is rampant. I just found a case of Fantastic Four Classics from over a year ago that was just sitting there.

It doesn’t matter if the position exists. Someone still orders product regardless if it’s 1 person or an overall manager or something.

Thanks for the insider info! But shouldn't any manager at any Walmart walk past a shelf like the one I posted - and say "hey we have a problem here" - - - and act on it? It shouldn't be up to us as customers to flag down employees and ask them to scan individual SKU's.... clearly whatever system they are using to order stuff isn't working well at all. Isn't there a manager or an employee that oversees the toy department? At some point, don't they take a regular inventory? Does anyone check? Doesn't anyone at the corporate level look at sales & notice "hey this Walmart's toy sales have been down for months - maybe somebody should go & check the stock levels?" I just can't believe nobody at a management level notices this stuff. They've gotta be leaving revenue on the table by allowing these shelves to remain empty - and it isn't just WWE stuff that they're lacking.

There is alot of effort thrown into the consumables (food, health and beauty, pets) because of the high volume of sales, expiration dates and the lower profit margin on those items. Toys are low on the priority list, and good help has been hard to find.
