This weekend me and my GF are gonna drive an hour out to the nearest Mattel Store for the first time. Wondering if anyone else has hit up one of these stores? Should I expect to find anything new or the same millions of Sheamus and ADR figs?

I've never been to one, but I've seen pictures of amazing mountains of $5 Ghostbusters figures at stores in California.

I don't know where the nearest one is. I would love to check out the Hot Wheels stuff they have there as well as the WWE stuff

Outside someone finding the mail-away Mankind at the Mattel Store at their Headquarters, I don't think I've seen any interesting Mattel Store findings on the forum.

I don't think there is one near me, but didn't someone on here find a case of the exclusive mankind and sell them for like $100 or $200 each not that long ago? I guess it's like any other store if you hit it at the right time you may find something good.

I might call ahead of time to ask "how's your selection of WWE stuff?" before I'd drive there.

Speaking of which, whatever happened to the dude who "found" those Mankinds? It's like he just got up and disappeared from the face of the earth.

There was also 1 guy who found a MOC Elite 1 you-know-who at a Mattel store back in 2010. Its the only one Ive ever seen MOC. The ebay auction for it was insane. I stopped bidding at $500.

I've been to the two in Wisconsin. Neither one was really worth going out of the way for, don't think I bought anything at either.

The employees are very helpful and will let you know what wwe figures they have, especially if you tell them your driving for 1hr.

I thought Mattel sent agents to your house to locate those missing Mankinds, then upon hearing you sold them, they sent you on a short swim wearing cement shoes. Lol

Let us know what you find. I'm curious to see if this is something I might try sometime.
