Sami Zayn dying a quicker death than Ska did in 1998.

Ouch. I personally still think his debut Elite is best. I see no reason to upgrade Tnf. He had waaaay too much chest hair |

Seems this is a global thing, I visited 3-4 different Smyths Toy shops here in the UK recently and each just had a sea of Sami.

All of his figures look the same to me.
It's like they just re-release his generic ass.

I like this attire but I have his debut elite so I'm good with that one, which I think is the best one so far.

Haha my Walmart looks similar but just mainly cenas and tnf 2. If they would drop to 7$ I would buy most of them and give them away. But nope not my walmart.

Ermahgerd.... this is why modern figures dont belong in the line.... did you know you can find these for very cheap on amazon? Modern figures will be the death of it all. I still see daniel bryan on shelves..... Just messing around. Lol You forgot about the part where you talk about how Sami Zayn never did anything important and doesn't deserve a figure and how no one wanted or asked for this figure. I completely agree. It's always funny to read how some people have such a limited scope of what they watch so they assume we all must be like him. Remember when people were calling the Sami debut elite a white whale? |

That first Elite Sami was IMPOSSIBLE to find. His transition from NXT (super successful) to main roster (atrocious booking) seems to affect his figure sales.

Sami Zayn is great. I couldn't find his elites anywhere and had to buy him on ringside.

The death of the Elite line? No, but it'll be awhile before your Walmart gets any new Elite sets in. I get this is suppose to be a joke on my TNF thread, but the big difference is that the Elite sets aren't store exclusives. That line isn't going anywhere, but we all seen what Elite 39 Sycho Sid did for the line.Most stores didn't get any newer Elite sets in until 44-45. The difference with the TNF line, HOF line and even when TRU use to do the BAF lines is that if they sit then it'll be awhile before most stores get the newest set in, and in turn the line gets canceled. This is why we no longer have HOF 4 packs and TRU dropped the BAF line years ago. The HOF singles are still around but instead of getting two sets a year we only get one once a year. So yeah, store exclusives have and do die when the previous set sits on the shelf for too long because the store thinks it isn't selling despite it being old stock. Whether or not its overstock from ordering too much product the fact reminds that it's looked at by the store as a product that isn't selling which gets the line canceled.

I know this thread isn't meant to be serious, but there is unfortunately a big difference between the two. |

I think maybe more care/thought should be taken when choosing who the double-packed Elites are... there's no way Sammi should have been picked over the likes of Roman, Hall or Mankind. Same goes with the recent Apollo Crews Elite... I think the E53 Alexa Bliss will shelf-warm too.
