why is Kevin Nash elite 16 figure so hard to find?... you’d think after ringside released their exclusive that the original red outsiders Nash would be easier to find... but no... infact it’s getting harder to find and more and more expensive.

What made you think a short packed figure thats different from the exclusive would make Elite 16 easier to find?

Lol maybe because E16 was released in 2012 and we're currently on E53 in 2017, idk could be one of many reasons why its hard to find, but total guess on my part...

If releasing new figs magically creates more versions of older ones, get ready to see an influx of an Elite 1 figure

2 totally different attires and headsculpts. Also there were I think only half as many Diesel and Nash made because they were split between cases. Thankfully I got both loose and complete off ebay for $50 total a couple years ago.

The answer, as stated above, is that not only was it short packed. It was in every other case, alternating with Diesel. I remember how far and wide I drove searching for Nash Series 16.
And that was in 2012!! By now I'm sure they're very hard to come by. I recently sold off all of my elites, but kept Nash and Diesel,

I once saw an Elite 16 Kevin Nash at Kmart, but it was actually an old Jakks Diesel swapped in the box instead.
It's not an easy figure to come by.

I don't think the UK got any of him.

I don’t understand. The guy asked a simple question and all he gets a replies are smart ass comments. I see this a lot on these boards specifically with wrestling fans. Don’t get me wrong I also collect wrestling figures as well as other lines but it’s only on the wrestling boards that I see this kind of behavior.

If a member can’t handle the amount of backtalk here then maybe this isn’t the place for them. wrestleciz the answer to your question lies within your question itself

Why wouldn't it be hard to find?? This figure has eluded me since I began collecting 3 and a half years ago. I still want it but I'm not paying that much.

I just sold 5 carded Nash's not too long ago, bought every one i could find back when it first came out for customs but never did any. Was sitting on a mini gold mine.

I have mine it’s one of my holy grails
But to answer your question it’s from an earlier series and I believe they were packed very light

I had to buy my Nash online because I never saw the revision case anywhere and I only ever saw Kelly Kelly from the next wave one time and it had a smeared belt so I didn't buy it.

Even though both Nash and Diesel were .5 per case figures the Diesel was easier to find here. I spotted him on the pegs of multiple Sears, Kmart, TRU, Target about 15-18 times and picked up two for myself and two for other board members. Nash I only found twice.

Don't fret, Mattel will re-release it which will extremely piss off those who wanted it to stay rare for financial purposes or modify it a bit so it only slightly piss them off (HOF Booker T, Big Boss Man).

Even though I do enjoy having a hard to find figure like Elite 16 Nash, I do hope mattel releases it again. If someone collects to one day make an insane profit they shouldn't be collecting.

It looks like it's only going for $50 to $65. Seems normal. I'm more disappointed that Diesel looks have have come down after I splurged and paid big for him a couple years ago. I don’t understand. The guy asked a simple question and all he gets a replies are smart ass comments. I see this a lot on these boards specifically with wrestling fans. Don’t get me wrong I also collect wrestling figures as well as other lines but it’s only on the wrestling boards that I see this kind of behavior. Because this is WFigs. What thread wouldn't be complete without 90% of the responses being snarky replies about how the OP is an idiot and every trying to play the role of moderator?
