So i had to make a late night run for some items for both home and work. Of course i make the standard toy aisle visit. Shipment was everywhere. ive seen this before but never seen mattel boxes. tonight i found one. decided id rip it open and peek....*jackpot* E11! I went ahead and picked up punk, Miz (one of my most sought after figs), and Rey. The box contained 1 punk, barrett, christian, and miz, 2 of cena and rey each. I left the aisle happy. as i walked away i thought...man these might just disappear in the back. So i decided to go back to the aisle, and i actually made room on the hooks on the shelf and stocked them for other local collectors to find lol So hopefully i gained some collector karma for my good deed! pic 1: box i opened pic 2: my pick ups Pic 3: after i "stocked" shelf

Did the boxes actually have Elite 11 written on them?

Did the boxes actually have Elite 11 written on them? No. Just Mattel logo, action figures, world wrestling entertainment on box.

Cool!
You should go into the back of my local Walmart and rip through boxes until you find a Punk for me.

Nice pick ups.. altho not sure how well the deed was of stocking the shelves with the rest as you seemed too rape the packaging and took all the good ones and left the crap ones on the shelves lol I wouldnt mind finding Christian and Miz in stores sometime soon

What you did was illegal and could get you banned from the store. I know that sounds far fetched, but it's true and the employees are dicks.

2 employees were there stocking while I did it. It's not illegal. Nothing about opening a box that's on the sales floor is illegal.

Am the only one that still can't find Elite 11? I've got 5 Walmart's near me and not a single one has got in series 11. It's really starting to anger me that I can't find them anywhere.
