So the past two days, I've been out, searching for figures to get caught back up in collecting, and I've put quite a dent in it, glad to say, and as soon as the two I've made a deal for on here come in the mail, I'll post pics up and talk about them as I have much to share, and much I'm pleased with Mattel about.
That said, I was out today and one of the figures I'm looking for is E11 Punk. I know a few months ago, he was the one EVERYONE wanted. I get it. I already have a basic Punk I pieced together but -- as with other, older figs I have, it's time for an update. Anyways, we've been out the past 2 days to multiple stores and today I got home and realized something --
I hadn't seen a Punk at any store. In any form. No Elites; No Basics; No Flex Force. Rumblers not withstanding, CM Punk apparently does not exist within the 2nd largest city of this State...at this point, I may just wait for his next figure, whenever that will be.
Has anyone else experienced this? Where a popular wrestler is entirely "gone" for lack of a better term?

Yes I have. I had to figure hunt in another state before I found E11 CM Punk.

Elite 11 itself was rare around here. Found Punk twice (first time I bought him, second time left him for another collector) but that was around Christmas. I wish you luck! Hopefully, they restock this set as it is pretty good overall.

I don't even need his shirt, I'd probably contact someone on here for a "best in the world" shirt anyways...

There are multiple E11 Punks on Ebay now, the problem is, they're 30+ bucks a fig. If you did so and kept it a reasonable price, I'm sure people, including myself would be interested. |

Because Punk was on the 'Do Not Make' list due to his contract running out, there is a serious lack of figures right now. I am sure there will be many to come thru the end of the year.

I never saw Elite 11 Punk. I haven't seen anything really Punk around for a while come to think of it.

Here we had one store (Sears Grand) that had E11. All I got was the Miz as someone beat me to the Punk. Still missing any form of him in my collection.

I have 2 e11 punks but would love another one for a custom attire. Sadly I had to get him on here as I searched far and wide in the bay area with no luck. E11 never hit my city or local towns

Currently.....right now, there are E11 in almost every WalMart near me (3 stores) my TRU, which has nothing knew does still have a couple of All Star 2-paks w/SCSA & Punk.
I bought an E11 before they the price went up on Elite to switch out the upper torse with a Punk/Macho 2-Pak whenever I find one.

Also, I think they slowed production on Punk figures because there were a few out around Christmas 2010 (Over The Limit, Two-packs 7, Elite 6) that really weren't selling well. Then with him not re-signing, they halted it all, pretty much. So we may not see any more Punk figures for a few months yet.

I would expect his next figure to come with the WWE title, his BITW shirt, and MAYBE either the ice cream bar shirt or I'm hearing he just started wearing a new grey shirt (no cable so I can't verify this, only what I've read on here)...which would be cool to have as well. Admittedly, I've become a big Punk fan since they started loosening their reigns on him last year. |
