My dad and I were in the US for the past few days and in those few days, we tried to fit in as much figure hunting as we could. We ended up going to all of the Targets, all of the Wal-Marts (except one), all of the TRUs, and all of the K-Marts in the Buffalo/Western New York Area.
3/16/2015
First stop on this day was a Target...
Target on Niagara Falls Blvd. in Amherst
This set was actually really easy to find in the area. I pretty much bought it for the COO Triple H. This Target also had the HOF series minus Slaughter, I did not pick any of those up from this location because they had decent size dents in the packaging.
FYE in Boulevard Mall
FYE had a pretty good deal going on: buy two used items, get the third for a dollar. I paid almost $12 total for those three Blu-Rays, which I thought was great.
Wal-Mart on Sheridan Drive
I really wanted the Ultimate Warrior, but it came at the cost of getting another Cena with it. I bought it anyway.
TRU on Sheridan Drive
I wanted HBK, Rock, and Hogan from the WM basic series. I was able to find Rock and HBK at this location.
Target on Transit Rd. in Williamsville
I felt like this Kane is different from all of his other figures, so I picked it up. I think it's a pretty good figure overall.
Wal-Mart on Transit Rd. in Williamsville
This Kane is the flesh armpit version. Obviously, I'd rather have the black armpit version, but I thought that I may not see the figure again. This would actually end up being the first, and last time I saw this figure, so I'm glad I bought it when I had the chance. I also picked up the Batista since I like the blue attire.
3/17/2015
We ended up doing most of the shopping on this day. Actually ended up going to about 80% of the stores in the Western New York area.
Target on Delaware Ave.
Found the HOF series at this Target except Trish and Slaughter. Targets in Canada never got any of the US Target Exclusives and now that Targets in Canada are actually closing, we probably would never get them.
K-Mart on Hertel Ave.
I picked up the Thumbper simply because it was only a dollar, and it was an error. A Rey Mysterio Thumbper with a Ryback Card.
I also got the K-Mart exclusive Los Matadores set. I like the way the packaging looks, and it was on sale at $27.99.. saved a few dollars there.
TRU on McKinley Pkwy.
This TRU had the entire E32 set. E32 is a relatively weaker set, but I like the Mark Henry figure, plus it comes with a bunch of accessories too, which is always a good thing. The price was good as well.. TRU's have elites at $16.99, compared to Wal-Marts $19.84 and K-Marts $21.99!
Wal-Mart on Southwestern Blvd.
Hey yo..
Target in Orchard Park
Not really a Titus O'Neil fan, but his figure seemed hard to find. Every time I'd see the set he is in, both he and Goldust would always be missing, so I picked him up.
Wal-Mart on Transit Rd. in Lancaster
Just like the WM Elite Kane figure, this would be the first and only time I see the WM Elite 'Taker figure. I picked it up along with the signature series Batista. I like the red attire, but not so much the beard. I ended up price matching Target's sale and got Batista for $9.89
Target near the Walden Galleria
I really like the Usos so I picked up their two-pack. I also ended up finding the New Age Outlaws from this set. The cashier held the figures like they were nothing and made a crease in the NAO two-pack.. kinda irritated me, but oh well.
3/18/2015
Family Video on Colvin Blvd.
WWE Studios' movies usually suck, so I do not plan to watch this. It was only $2.99 and since its a WWE Studios film, I bought it.
Wal-Mart on Niagara Falls Blvd. in North Tonawanda
I had actually found Mankind the day before, but the cards were messed up so I passed on them. I found Mankind again and picked it up, along with a Steamboat. All of the Mankinds had some sort of card issue, but I picked the best looking one. Price matched with the Target sale and got them for $9.89.
Target on Niagara Falls Blvd. in Amherst

So I did not end up finding Trish at a different location with a better box, so I went back to this Target and picked up Trish. I did not want to pass up the opportunity of getting her figure, even if the box isn't that great.
FYE in Boulevard Mall
Also went back to the FYE and picked up more Blu-Rays. Spent $22 for the 6 of them. On top of the buy 2, get the third for a dollar promotion, they had a promotion where if you spent $25 or more in WWE merch, you'd get a free Roman Reigns foam fist. My total was under $25, but the guy gave it to me anyway:
TRU on Sheridan Dr.
This TRU actually restocked on Elites. They had the entire E33 except for JYD. I picked up Seth Rollins, and I actually now have the entire set of E33.
3/19/2015
Wal-Mart on Transit Rd. in Williamsville
Every signature series Hogan I saw had card damage, but since I really like the figure, I bought one anyway, along with a Bray Wyatt.
TRU on Transit Rd. in Williamsville
Picked up the Triple H/Roman Reigns two-pack at this location.
K-Mart on Hertel Ave.
I picked up a shelfwarmer here. We don't have K-Marts in Canada, so I bought the K-Mart exclusive Orton here.
And that brings me to the end of my trip..
Thanks for looking, and here's one last shot of my haul:
Thanks again everyone!
