I never got over mattel using the balloon headscan with the wrong hair for this figure. The balloon headscan doesn't look bad on basics, but on the scrawny elite body, it just looks comical.
Glad I waited for elite 56.

When i heard it hit i went to TRU immediately, was able to get the last AJ figure in the store. A little over a week later all the AJ's were gone from the majority of TRU's in the city. Same. All current NS figures seem to sell well outside of Ambrose, and that’s probably because people feel like they’ve bought that figure 3-4 times already... In my area there's a ton of Finn Balor, HHH, Ringmaster Steve Austin, Undertaker and Roman Reigns NS's warming the pegs.

My area only has Ambrose, Vince, Taker, Austin, HHH. Everything else has sold well. Hell people still wont buy HHH and Austin at $13

Mine has (had) at least two pegs each of Vince, Taker and Ambrose last week. This week Taker and Vince were down to a peg and half peg each. Ambrose is still two + pegs and Virgil was restocked to 3 pegs.

Only time I saw AJ was when I went to TRU for the Nakamura POP. Debated getting AJ for a few minutes and declined. Mistakes were made.

Unforanetly the 23 ministry takers that haven't been clearanced with the Austin's, hhh's are rotting on my shelves.

Probably my favorite AJ figure until I get Elite 56.

Glad I bought it online, I had no clue of its secondary value.

He was pretty limited, yes I'm shocked at the value now

It isn't that expensive.
Those are the highest and most absurd prices dude could find.
Still wouldn't pick it up at retail price. AJ only wore the attire once when he wrestled the boss' son, in a typical Shane match.

These Spotlight figures have surprised me. Figures I thought would sell well didn't. And figures I thought would peg warm have sold.

Sadly was a victim of poor distribution. Never seen the figure in stores. Only Hunter Hearse Helmsleys and Dean Ambrose and a tjp with a missing belt.

I feel like my TRU suffers from jacked up distribution. They only saw 1 case each on Bossman, Michaels, Bayley, Finn, TJP and Styles. THEN they got multiple cases at once of Vince, Ambrose, HHH and Austin. These 4 are still there and on clearance. Seth Cashes In, Debut Cena also sold quickly, getting only 1 case each. Virgil has sold out the first case no problem, the restock case is mostly sold out also.

I’ve seen three cases at each of the TRU around be but AJ only sit on shelves for 1-2 days max. Current wrestlers just sell better, Ambrose will still sell out before Undertaker & Vince.

When I bought him I found like 4 on the pegs, and this was right about the time they started popping up everywhere. Picked him and Vince up and haven't seen that Styles since.
