Funko's Limited Edition program keeps WWE fans checking the drop calendar, and the next one is close. A new WWE figure is confirmed as a Walmart-exclusive Limited Edition release, capped at 7,500 pieces, with a drop date of August 26.
Once a Limited Edition run like this sells out, Funko does not restock it. That makes the first hour after release the only real window most collectors get.
This guide covers what is confirmed about the drop, why the cap matters, and how to keep the figure protected the moment it arrives.
Funko's own Limited Edition calendar lists this as a WWE Walmart Limited Edition Exclusive, limited to 7,500 pieces, dropping August 26. That is the confirmed availability window and print run.
The specific wrestler has not been widely detailed ahead of release, which is typical for Funko's retailer-exclusive drops. Collectors usually get full confirmation only once the listing goes live at Walmart.
This drop sits alongside several other Limited Edition exclusives on Funko's August calendar, including releases tied to One Piece, Sonic the Hedgehog, Harry Potter, and Alice in Wonderland, each handled by a different retailer partner and each capped at its own print run.
A 7,500-piece national run is small relative to Walmart's footprint. Retailer-exclusive Funko drops at this print level have historically sold out within hours, especially for WWE figures tied to current storylines.
That is different from a standard-release Pop, which usually restocks for weeks. A capped Limited Edition run does not come back once it is gone.
Since the exact figure was not confirmed at the time of writing, the safest approach is watching Funko's Limited Edition calendar and Walmart's listing directly on release day rather than relying on secondhand leaks.
Once the figure ships, treating it like any other Limited Edition Pop from day one keeps it in the condition it arrived in.
WWE Funko drops have a track record of selling out quickly, even compared with other retailer exclusives on the same calendar. Part of that comes down to overlap between two separate collector bases: wrestling fans buying for the storyline relevance, and Funko completionists chasing every Limited Edition release regardless of fandom.
That combination tends to compress the selling window further than a single-fandom drop would. A Harry Potter or Alice in Wonderland exclusive on the same calendar might sell steadily over a day or two, while a WWE piece can be gone within the first hour.
Knowing that in advance changes how collectors should plan around the release. Waiting even a few hours after Funko's typical morning drop windows can mean missing the run entirely.
Funko's WWE catalog already spans current roster members, Attitude Era legends, and nostalgia-driven multi-packs. A Walmart-exclusive Limited Edition release usually slots in as a higher-demand version of an existing wrestler rather than an entirely new addition to the line.
That context matters for anyone deciding whether to chase this specific drop. Collectors who already track the standard WWE Pop lineup will have an easier time judging where this release fits once the wrestler is confirmed.
If you land the figure on drop day, EVORETRO's premium 4 inch Funko Pop protector is the clearest next step. It keeps a standard-size box protected from day one without waiting for a scuff to show up first.
Missing a capped Limited Edition run does not always mean paying resale markup right away. Some Walmart-exclusive drops see light restocking in physical stores even after the online listing sells out, particularly in regions with lower initial demand.
Checking in-store availability through Walmart's app before assuming the figure is gone for good is worth the extra few minutes, especially in the first day or two after release.
Funko's Limited Edition calendar lists August 26 as the release date.
The run is capped at 7,500 pieces according to Funko's official calendar.
It is listed as a Walmart-exclusive release.
Limited Edition drops at this print level typically do not restock once sold out.
A 7,500-piece Walmart exclusive moves fast once it goes live, so the best move is watching the listing directly and having EVORETRO's full Funko Pop protector lineup ready before the figure arrives.
Whichever WWE name ends up in the box, a protected display from day one is what keeps a capped release looking as good as it did on release day.
