I went to Wal-mart today to do some figure hunting. They had the new light-up Flex Force figures and the new belts on the white carding, but no new Elites, Basics, or Two-Packs. However, they had restocked Elite 11. They had 5 Punks, 2 Christians, and 7 Barretts. None of anyone else from the set. So my question to all of you is do you believe that the Punk excitement has died down? I hear a little bit more every day about Punk being readily available at certain stores, with multiple Punk figures stocked on the shelves. Your thoughts?

Most sought after figures are hard to find at first. E11 has been out for awhile. Id say that those who were wanting one have gotten it by now and now they're getting their later shipments you'll see more of them. One Walmart around here had a freaking TON of E11 in stock

I would not say died down as much as saying more cases are being put out.

The day before Christmas I saw 4 or 5 complete cases of Elite 11 at Wal-Mart. As of last weekend they still had a lot of Punks, Cenas and Wades.

I have only seen one case of Elite 11. I bought both Punkers and Barrett. I haven't seen a single fig from elite 11 in almost a month. So in some areas I am sure it will be bountiful, but to those in northern California (redding/Chico) I am sure there are still people who would give their nutsacks for one. Like everything, it all depends on availability.

I've seen Elite 11 a couple times and I only saw Punk once and there was just one of him.

It died too quickly. But you can blame WWE for that, for shifting him over to a program with Nash which failed.

I've only seen a few figures from 11, none of them being Punk. Which of course, I'd like to find. Doesn't seem like my stores have done any serious re-stocking after Christmas though. Wish they'd hurry up.

I've only seen one of them and picked that one up immediately. I see a lot of E12 Ortons warming the pegs, but the only figure I ever see from E11 is Wade Barrett.
