My TRU put out the Mr. McMahon display today. Wasn't gonna take a chance of missing out on the Internet Champion, so I'll have to go back to return/re-buy, but it's not a big deal. How 'bout some pics? !!! E9 Zack Ryder was my most wanted figure of this wave after The Miz. He doesn't disappoint. Mostly. Very good scowling look on his face, great work on the ring jacket. I love the Flo-Jo tights. There is some stray paint on his left hand and shoulder, but that can be easily taken care of. The biggest flaw is seen on the back of his head. Looks like it's been pinched badly. Not something I'll be able to fix, I'm sure. I wish the headband was removable, like MVP's or Chavo's, but it's a minor complaint.       "Bro! Are you serious?"    MVP is sporting his most current WWE look, which I think is the same as his IWGP attire. Shorter tights than the E1 release, and the chains look a bit more golden. Same head sculpt, although it seems the skin tone is a tad darker. Very good figure, but the most boring of today's pickups.    Luke Gallows is sporting his Straight Edge Society gear. Unless he re-signs with WWE, this is likely the only Elite figure we're gonna get. Good work on the vest and skull-cap. The biceps are too big, but it's forgivable. Awesome headsculpt, probably the best of this wave of Elites.        Finally finished off Legends 5 with Bam Bam Bigelow. The ring jacket and wrist coverings look fine, but I doubt I'll use them very much. The figure is outstanding. Excellent work on the tattoos and the flames on the ring attire. Very good headsculpt.        |

I think you could fix the back of the head or a least make it look a little better. Heat the head, pop it off, and then put it back on un-pinched

Just popped Ryder's head off and took care of the pinching. I thought a chunk would be missing, but it was all there. Not perfect, but much improved looks-wise. Also helps him look up a bit now.  |

Went to TRU this morning to do the return/re-buy of yesterday's haul so I can qualify for Vince. The young lady working the customer service register started processing it when a little turd of a manager came over and started asking me questions about what I was doing. He stopped the girl from doing the transaction and asked why I bought the figures early, saying they're not supposed to adjust receipts like this. I had to explain the promotion to him and that I wouldn't have to get the receipt adjusted if they wouldn't have put the display out early. Told him I would more than happy to do my future TRU shopping in Baton Rouge or Lake Charles. He put his head down, told the girl to finish helping me out, and walked away. She got a kick out of it.

Glad it worked out for ya. Why the hell would the manager even care in the 1st place. I hate these f*cks. |

I hate these f*cks. if TRU works anything like the store i work at you have adt's ( average dollar per transaction ) and upt's ( units per transaction ) the company i work for has a standard we shoot for.. or would really like to see at the end of the day... so , maybe he has had higher ups on his ass for his numbers... it happens.. sometimes you cant help it if they're bad.. but other things can be done... i know a return or exchange at my place hurts our numbers more than selling just one item to a person... BUT if he has a piss poor atitude with customers due to this.. he may need to rethink how he goes about approaching the situation... |
