I bet she will not sell out. They aren't going for much on eBay so the scalpers won't be after her. No legend has sold out either. Everybody (myself included) was freaking out when Andre and the Rockers were put up thinking they were going to sell out and they didn't. So I think whoever wants one will get one.

I doubt she will sell out either considering the track record of other Legends on the site granted Matty will likely have fewer of her than other Legends offered.
It isn't like it is being advertised anywhere, so not that many people know about it. Also the price, scalpers aren't going to want to invest $20+ in her, when she goes for less than $30.
She has been on Amazon for a while now for $30 shipped or a little less from different sellers for a while now. Likely the same on Ebay.

I might order one. I've been wanting to order Arn and Tully for the belts, so maybe I'll grab the three of them to counteract their ridiculous shipping prices.

Meh, as much I would like a Liz figure...I really don't want to deal with Matty ever again. These shipping prices are ridiculous and it takes about double the time it should to get what you ordered.

I doubt she will sell out on day of sale but I do expect her gone in a few days. Usually Matty Collector is a real pain on sale day but it might not be as bad this month. The only new MOTUC figure is a sub only this month so there should be less people on the site. Of course I shouldn't put much faith in Digital River though.
For those that complain about shipping prices, you must not ship very much. $8.00-$9.00 is standard shipping price set by the USPS, not Mattel. It would cost be over $9.00 to ship a 1lb 3oz package from AZ to NY. They are not making any profits on their shipping. I can speak for International shipping however since I don't have much knowledge of those rates.

This is good of Mattel, I know if I didn't find her that one time at Target(for 16.99), I'd have been s.o.l.

It took a while for Andre and the Rockers to sell out so I expect the same if Matty.com has the same amount of both.
I'm thinking Matty will only get a few cases and will sell out faster than we think unlike thousands of Andre and Rockers.

Do you guys really think HBK or Elizabeth will be in the same numbers as Andre or the Rockers? Andre & the Rockers were produced for Matty only, but Liz and HBK are both mass retails that they are adding to Matty...so I'd bet the e19 will be much more limited than any of the past Matty Legends.

I was planning on finally picking up Bundy when I got Dr. Manhattan... Looks like Miss Liz will be my second figure though. Now I just need to see if I can scrape together a bit more so I can also get HBK.

Do we think this means the Flashbacks will be rarer in the stores getting people to ultimately buy more than one Mattel Legend to clear out the inventory???
Everyone is immediately thinking about saving on shipping and just plucking an Arn Anderson or DDP finally

Hopefully they do this with more Flashbacks from here on out. I haven't found hardly any at retail. This should definitely help a few people out.

Yeah their shipping prices actually increased since the brain busters went up. Its like $9.50 or something just to ship out one figure. Use to be like $7.50.

You make a good point, but Elite 19 was widely available at mass retail and secondary retail outlets like you said, so no it won't sell out I don't think. They got plenty. If anything, Andre and Rockers and the rest of the online exclusives would have sold out quicker I bet because they are exclusively made for online in limited quantity where as Elite 19 was made specifically for retail and has more quantity of each figure to get. I get what your saying, but Elite 19 has to have more demand and quantity then online exclusives do right? If they made more of the online exclusives they would have been in the stores.

But that's what I'm saying e19 was widely available at mass retail with HBK and Liz being found at every retail chain...so how many e19 hbk's and Liz's are left for Matty? It's not like they did a special production run for Matty's stock. It's not like they are getting solid cases of them like they did for each Legend they had on Matty.
Good luck for those who still need them, but luckily I got mine at TRU already

This is awesome news for international collectors... for some reason, she wasn't included in our Elite 19 shipments. $15.99 + $10 shipping is an absolute steal... I just wish they could have done it for the Kevin Nash figure too.

She's been on Mattelshop for roughly three hours this morning.

Looks like Mattelshop probably got quite a few of these in, seeing as how they have been up this long. Was glad they had basic 26 as well so I could get the free shipping with the code.
