So this morning I read yet another thread of someone finding Nash at Kmart so I decided to hit up my closest K-mart (I guess I'm lucky to have one 5 minutes away). I go to the toy isles and see nothing, go out to their main isle (where they would keep displays at) and see nothing. At the end of the store by the gardening dept door, I see a unopened display pallet. I go towards it and see the it says Mattel survivor series pallet. Now I'm excited, I pretty much know Nash is in there, the only fig I want from the series. So I wait.... ...and wait... ...and wait... walked around and couldn't find anyone close by. I attempt to open the display but it has 2 straps tying the whole thing down. I got the first one off but the second was too difficult. So I decide not to be a creep and just wait around. ...Still noone. I've been in the store for 25 minutes now and no body has come to that section of the store. So I figure, "whats the worst that could happen". I start ripping open the cardboard on the part where it's glued to it self. Look inside and see a Ryder Ziggler 2-pack. An awesome set but I only collect elites now. Underneath that I see a Tag Team Championship belt... Bummer. I can't see the other side but I can reach in... I reach in and feel the Elite packaging... I turn away and see if anyone is close by... Reach in again and just pull out whatever Elite it is... Sure enough it was NASH!!! I go on to pay for it and continue on with my morning. I may go again later and see if it was put out and where. Might get slater if they have it, maybe Diesel but I dont think he's in the same assortment. so thats my cool story bro, now pics: thats where I made the opening, elites where half way down on the left section there. Just minor scratches Pretty good fig, I love that Monday night wars era... Might get DDP from matty now.

great story, congrats on picking Nash up. Unfortunately neither Diesel or Slater are in the revision cases (another Rock replaces Slater)

Today I stopped at an out of town Kmart. As I'm checking out the toy department, one of the employees (he sees me me there semi-regularly )asks me if I called up yesterday asking for WWE figures. It wasn't me but I told him I was looking for WWE. Then he asks me if it was Kevin Nash. "Yes!". He tells me wait there, he'll go back to get it. He didn't bring out the display, only the Nash figure and said it was the last one. Lot's of luck involved. If the other guy didn't call and if I didn't see that employee, I would have walked out empty handed.

LOL, I forgot to mention when that other guy called yesterday, they couldn't find the display in the back room. I guess they set one aside for him if he calls back today.
