if they had a problem with the chinese sellers, than they should report them on ebay most of the guys that used to sell factory rejects and what not have been since banned from the bay. not sure how this clown who keeps selling all the Hardy's slides under the radar.

Best guess is Mattel got bitchy with the ADMs here about people posting early released and unfinished stuff from the factory. Funny thing is that many of us still by stuff from China, and some of us get things long before the rest but can't talk about it. I'm pretty sure there's a guy on here who has a friend who works for Jakks, and he sends him free figures before they're released all the time. That would be me ;D

I remember hearing from a guy who ran a fig store out of a flea market said he had a Jeff Hardy fig but sold it to the guy who got the fig signed by Hardy. I didn't believe him until i've read quite a bit on the figure(and the recent info that it was found in Texas). Remember him specifically telling me he sold it for 64 $, really surprising.

They dont know the real story i doubt that, not saying all the kids know about Hardy's arrest but with the internet and what have you im sure more then .01% knows about his demons. either way Vince makes the calls and he obviously isn't a fan of how Jeff left them so it is what it is.

They dont know the real story I've heard 7 year olds talking about how big a drug freak Jeff hardy is and how he could be put in jail so don't think all kids aren't smarks. Some may cry at Cena losing, others are wondering why it took so long for Triple H to mention he already lost a mania match to Taker...

I think the reason why it wasn't released b/c Jeff got a percentage of whatever merchandise he sold including figures so once he left, Vince didn't want him make more money off WWE.

And never too shy to gloat either. No worries. That ship sailed out a long time ago brother. My frend quit working there in 2008 and went to work for Mattel. But he ended up leaving Mattel in early 2010. I havent receved any early samples for about 3 years now sadly. I wont lie, back when Tim was able, he hooked me up strong. I was very blessed.

It seems strange that the picture of Jeff on the front (and back) is quite different from his figure (ie. no face paint)... nearly all the Elite figures seem to match their pictures. Such a shame this figure was never released though... I'm going to try and make the packaging for my loose Jeff.

TBH the face paint on this fig puts me off it, I would rather have the purple and white face paint!
