Where I am in South FL, every Dec. 1st, there's a boat parade on the Intercoastal Waterway. My girlfriend's parents host a giant block party for it every year. This'll be my first time going since we've been dating. Everyone is encouraged to bring a toy for Toys For Tots. So in keeping with my own tradition of donating some of my figure collection, I actually went out and bought the following... The Bulldog was $8 from a Tuesday Morning store behind my place. The Hunico was just put out at my local Walgreens, when all they've had since Mattel's start with WWE, was two Sheamuses (Added was a Cody Rhodes and two Kelly Kellys). In fact, they were so new, they weren't in the database yet. I had to tell my pharmacist what product it was part of, and run back to confirm the correct pricing. I don't actively collect anymore. The last thing I bought was the Otunga/McGillicutty 2-Pack, seeing as it would probably be the only McGillicullty figure ever. I'm not planning on buying another for my personal collection, until a Ric Flair is eventually made and put up on RSC for pre-order. That said, the "collector" in me is tempted to keep the Hunico, but the mature adult in me knows how cool it'd be for a less-fortunate wrestling fan. And besides, having only a single figure to play with isn't as fun...lol.

Not being cheap, but I'm donating a BO2012 rey and del rio for the fact they're 5.99 each near me. Reason being, 2 is better than 1 and for the price of them you can't go wrong.

I love when people do this. Last year I gave a series 10 2-pack Edge/Orton and a basic Big Show. This year I donated 5 or 6 packs of rumblers

My Walgreens is currently running a b1g1 free on wwe figures. I was going to buy a few and donate some to charity. But all that I saw at 3 different Walgreens were B20 Reys. I'm not sure if even the less fortnate would appreciate that one lol jk

My local ones do anyways. Sent from my VM670 using proboards The TRU here in our town has one, and it's for Marine families, when I have some cash I'm gonna go back and get a toy to give em. It's great to see so many boardies feeling the gift of giving these days. I think most of us around the world will agree it's very easy these days for people to be more concerned with themselves than others. High fives all around.

I thought that you bought a bunch of Cena's and donated them at first Even the Grinch wouldn't be that cruel. Or Scrooge. A kid would be happier to get a lump of coal.

Every TRU has a drop box. If you go to toysfortots.com and type in your zip code it will give you a list of all the ones in your area.
