I know that distribution for all toys are bad, but I have seen Black Series and Marvel Legends most recent waves in stores. Jazwares is able to get its 4" Fortnite figures into stores, I just bought the most recent releases yesterday. I have have pre-ordered TVC online now because that is the only way to get it, but that is not as much fun as finding it in the stores.
I know nothing about how the toy industry works, but I usually see a few of the re-release waves that hang out for a while, but the pegs are never full. The waves of new stuff disappears immediately. I’ll catch a figure here and there so I know it came out. I saw one Greef Karga on the pegs that was the only figure from that wave that I saw in 5-6 stores (mix of WM and Target). My main WM must have gotten a case of Imwe because they had a solid peg of him. Took about 2 weeks but they sold out. Currently I’ve seen the wave with the Royal Guard twice. Royal Guard is gone. I’ve got a Han and a Hoth Luke hanging out at one store that is it for the 5-6 stores I go to. No idea why they don’t just stock the figures. The Black are easier to find. Not like toys in the 80s or 90s but in my area if I look I can get any Black figure I want and get 2-3 shots at it, but they do sell too and mostly sell out. Occasionally there is a figure that just won’t sell like that female former Stormtrooper from Rise of Skywalker (forget her name), but TVC always sells out. Snoke and Erso were the only figures that ever peg warmed from the line here.
