£33 to order it from Ringside on its own. You'll get it before Smyth's sticks it aswell. ...so the only alternative to Smyths is to order it for the same price off RSC - at least with Smyths we get the option ofgoing in the store and choosing the best one (paint-job and box condition). Not to mention, this £32.99 at Smyths might be a one-off/experimental price (similar to the £27.99 for the DM Macho Man, before they went back down to £24.99). I can see future EG figures leveling off at something like £27.99/£28.99. Another issue is that at $27.99 + $19 shipping this will just be over the threshold for customs and we'd have to pay another few quid plus £8 royal mail handling fee. Smyths it is.

Went to Home Bargains after work, they had one of those cardboard display units filled with that Signature Series from a few years back with Cena, Wyatt, Hogan, Bryan, Ambrose and Batista Cheers, will look out for the Hogan as I prefer t-shirt figures as basics. £6.99 odd I assume?

Wow the prices are insane these days! I really feel for you guys trying to make a decent collection. Collecting back in the days of Jakks was so much more....well...cheap! The prices on eBay are even more eye watering!

These are £4.99 I think, £6.99 is usually B&M Basic price

Anyone who pays £33 for Kurt Angle has no right to complain about the price of collecting again imo. If you are willing to show Smyths you’ll pay that then you’ll pay anything. There is no way to justify it so don’t try. The solution is quite simple, don’t pay £33 for a simple looking elite figure. It’s not even difficult to do. People moaning but saying they’ll pay in the same post. Madness. I hate the price and think it's very expensive - but what's the alternative? If Smyths didn't stock it, we'd be looking at paying £35+ from RSC (plus Customs fees if you ordered anything else). And then people would be complaining that no stores in the UK sell them... Do we need an alternative for a simple figure with 2 medals for £33? I don't lol I hope Jeff came at least with towel and shirt like the e1......

First time seeing that AJ basic too. £28 For a DM Macho Man 😒 So when it comes to Entrance Greats you're paying a extra fiver for the music box & over sized packaging. When did plastic become so expensive to produce ? You'd think these figures are made of gold. 😝

Ordered a couple of belt packs from RSC during their Cyber Monday 1.0 sale. Still haven't received them even though according to the tracking they have been in the country since 1st December. Not too worried at the moment, as shipping did say it could take between 7-21 business days. Just wondered if anyone else had ordered anything and whether or not they had received it?

I was in there yesterday when they were putting out the figures, there was around 6 Kofi’s. Not bad £11 for elites, Macho Man DM is expensive at £28, but they usually drop the DM’s pretty quick, surprisingly the had Nakamura DM before anyone else, usually the lack behind the rest, but I’ve picked up DM Cena, Flair & Surfer Sting in there for between £10-12 so Macho may drop soon. Not bad for battle packs £15 but unfortunately old ones like Charlotte & Ric Flair, Vaudevillians etc. Looks like B&M have stopped with there stock of WWE stuff, been scouting round and no elites left bar the odd Ambrose & a couple of Reigns/Bryan battle packs, such a shame I was hoping Elite 50 might come up, desperate for the Shane & Rhyno

They only had one battle pack left from what I could see, just Charlotte/Naitch. Didn't bother checking Liverpool One's store, it was far too busy. Thought I was done shopping for the day, but remembered I needed a padlock for my suitcase so I headed back to Home Bargains in St John's. Ended up walking out with the Paul Bearer BAF set - they had loads of Basic 50 and DM Surfer Sting for £4.99. Was gonna pick one up as well but had to talk myself out of it haha.

Has anybody ever found anything good at Car Boots and Charity shops! Usually if i'm out I will pop in to them to see if there is any treasure. A mate of mine found a box full of Hasbro and Jakks figures and asked the woman how much for the whole box and she said £30. Total bargain

Where does it say it’s at on your tracking? Apparently it passed through Langley on 1st December. That was the last update.
