LOL @ RARE when they haven't even hit the US stores yet ! Seriously, some of you guys are just so damn impatient ... Point taken and considered. However, what do you expect when you see something promoted and then it just DROPS somewhere outside the country you live in....Not even a projected release date. (I certainly didn't see one that i can remember) They just drop. It's natural for someone to be impatient when one sees someone else get something they also want but they can't. And yeah, they are considered "rare" at the moment because (what seems to be) 2 or 3 people have them in ONE location and can get away with selling them for DOUBLE the price. Only one person has the set on here and that's the person who posted it. This is similar to Mankind's debut figure...the same ONE figure was on the bay for like $2000 for a LONG TIME (felt like at least 6 months) and mattel/WWE/RSC kept flopping on when it would be released to customers. (glad to see them released though) They people who are impatient, who includes me to a certain degree, are afraid this thing is gonna happen with THIS awesome set. (Just like Paul Bearer's set) Sh*t, I STILL haven't seen the Paul Bearer BAF set in WA state. (Hell I don't think I ever will) TRU's are backed up with the same old Booker T BAF set that no one is buying. In summary, when you flop on your customers, they get impatient. I'm not making excuses for the impatience, just a perspective to consider. Amazon Mankind People spent hundreds, but now can get it for like $25-$30. I'm sure they feel b pretty dumb. People are just trying to cash in, that's all there is to it. /thread #HavePatience

There is no reason to pay that much for them. I'm sure in Feb after TRU does their inventory this and the Bearer set will be all over the place. Hell look at Axel from the last BAF set everyone wanted to overpay to get him because he was either short packed or 1 per caae...now he's sitting on their website at $17.

I'll have him in a week..
I bought the Bryan/HHH 2 pack today off of amazon for 24.99, and I bought the basic corporate Kane.
I'll head swap them and have the Corporate Kane while saving about 45.00.

I'm in no hurry for this set, to be honest. No need for the Corporate Kane as I am fine with his B44 figure. The only figure I really want is Taker. That figure looks amazing. Might grab Wyatt and Bryan if there is a sale or something, but not needed.

i find the Bearer problem really strange as i got it instore in the uk about 6 months ago and they are still popping up now and again,i think they have sent all the supplies to europe or something, but you guys state side will get your own back when the Target exclusives hit because i dont hold out much hope in finding them for a reasonable price over here. But i was surprised to see the DM Hogan on a normal retail stores website (smyths) for pre order so maybe they could come up with a deal to distribute in the uk.

Trading older elites for new released figures is hard to gauge what's fair
While the older figures have a steady price established, the newer 1s are only popular because not everyone has them.
Unless your getting a solid deal on them, swapping for something that is just out, makes it hard to determine fair value.

Only thing I'm not looking forward to, is trying to bend Taker's hat back to normal. It's bend in the package because they didn't want to use older style packaging where that hat would keep its shape by being encased in a hole next to it. smh. Then again, makes sense because they had to have somewhere to fit the BAF parts.

Old figs are only gonna get more valuable as time goes on, while these are only valuable at the moment.

The key thing here is gonna be patience. I really need both Daniel Bryan and Dolph Ziggler from the Paul Bearer set but I am not paying crazy prices from international sellers. Same token, I need all of the Corporate Kane figures, and again, I'll wait. If this were a Hasbro toyline, I'd say don't hold your breath, but these will be out sooner or later. Still banking on last minute Christmas frenzy to kill some of those Sheamus and Del Rios. In fact, Sheamus has been selling, Del Rio is the one we have to worry about.
