Hey guys, first post on the forum after viewing for months. Just started getting into collecting again after about 10 years or so. The mattel figures are awesome, was just wondering if anyone could tell me where to get the best figs online in the UK.

I get mine from Wrestling World and A Merchandise, both awesome sellers. A Merchandise arrives First Class and Wrestling World just as quick. Highly recommend both.

Wrestlingworld are unbeatable if you don't mind paying a premium to have your figures as early as possible -- but the prices are getting extremely steep lately.
Superslam Wrestling on Amazon are very good when it comes to prices. They rarely go to £20 or above, and it's a flat £2 fee for postage no matter how many figures you order.
A1 Comics seem to be a favourite right now. Up until very recently, they don't have a price heirarchy on harder-to-find figures like everybody else. £15.99 for every Elite figure and free postage. They've just recently changed that for Elite 15, but that may be because they've marked down a figure or 2 and just want to make back their losses.
Superstriker0 on eBay is also another favourite, but their prices have started to climb recently and they are definitely not the way to go if you're a MOC collector. Many complaints of bent cards and I can tell you from experience that packaging is not their specialty.

There's also blocked. I've never bought from them but they really seem professional. The shipping costs to receive figures here in France are low but they don't get the Mattel figures as quick as WrestlingWorld does but they communicate way better than WrestlingWorld.

Yeah they only gripe I have with Wrestling World is the communication, I've sent countless emails asking about stock but had no reply, however, I order most my figures from there and they arrive within days, the Kevin Nash NWO one arrived the day after which was awesome.
I'll have to check A1 Comics out too, sounds pretty cool.

It's only E16 Punk that's out of stock at the moment which I'm sure will be replenished. I went to order Kevin Nash within about 5 minutes of it coming off Pre-Order but it said it had sold out, checked again 9am the next morning and voila it was back in stock!!

WrestlingWorld A1 Ebay - SuperStriker0 is the best usually, she's usually got good prices Argos - 2 for £15 on all basics, usually has basics fastest TRU - Sometimes Smyths - Very good overall Wilkinsons - Used to be good, not been in ages.

I use wrestling world solely now.
If you wait a month or so A1 get the new stuff in and only charge £10.99 for basiscs, of couse certain ones like the Divas go quick but a bargain if you can get in quick.

Superstriker's having a laugh with new prices as well. Jinder and Hornswoggle are £20 or more each on there. This is the same series Argos currently is selling 2 for £15.
There's no great options for buying figures online. A1 is the best, but recent developments suggest they might be joining the rip-off club.

I'm willing to pay the prices, most figs I've got from eBay have arrived with damaged packaging which is useless for my MOC collection.
