It is amazing how far this figure has fallen in value. I remember when I found mine this figure was selling for close to $100 but now you could get it for under $40. He wasn’t easy to find so you would have thought he would hold his value. Three things. 1. Haven't watched nxt in a while, but if his character is lost in the shuffle, figures tend to go down. Let him win a major title, I bet his value goes up like Drew McIntyre. 2. As this posts suggests, he's been popping up frequently at ollie's. More availability usually equals lower prices. 3. Last but not least, he has another figure recently in elite 75, which looks great and comes with a belt. Not only that, compared to other recent waves, this one has been readily available at both Walmart and Target. I've seen Dunne and Hurricane at least five times, but I've never seen Aleister or Jim Neidhart, and only saw Andrade once. F#%k Walmart! Lol He isn’t lost in the shuffle, he is stuck in the UK due to the pandemic. He was actually involved in one of the top programs before he got stuck with Matt Riddle against the Undisputed Era.

I went to Ollie's right up the road form my house today and they put out two fresh cases of Elite 64. I walked out with both Chase and Regular Hawkins and Exclusive Pete Dunne!! Such a good day too after finding the Trish and Lita Battlepack and a case of 107!!

I just saw the international carded one at Ollie's yesterday. I was tempted to buy him for trading on here.

And yet we still can't get this in the UK - and I still want one. Apart from the belt, I prefer this version to E75.

Are these truly the SAME figure if the packaging is different? Even if the figure inside the package is exact, I feel like the original one should still be more valuable and should hold a greater mystique because of how difficult it was to find.

Get that funko pop bs out of here. It’s the same figure, if I bend the card of either one a MOC collector will cry regardless of which one I pick The last thing this hobby needs is ANOTHER way for people to inflate prices even further

I’d say that’s up to the individual collector. In terms of the value of buying/selling, I don’t know. In terms of my collection I would personally put more value in having the standard carding that I purchased at Target as opposed to finding the international carding at Ollie’s.

Funko Pop figures are the ones with large heads. Are these truly the SAME figure if the packaging is different?

I sort of feel the same way. I looked at a picture of the back of the card and as someone pointed out, it's very plain. It just seems a little weird. However I'm happy that collector's and kids can find the actual figure now.

He wasn’t easy to find so you would have thought he would hold his value. I think it has a lot to do with him getting a more wide-released figure in E75 more than anything else.

Took the chance to swing by mine last night with a 15% discount card. No sign of anything outside of a lot of Sasha Banks merch.

Funko release the same figures in multiple places but people will charge hundreds of dollars more for certain packaging versions even if it’s just a sticker on the carding. That’s the last thing we need happening here

I got one off Amazon which came in today and it's the original Target packaging with FTITL and CE text. For some reason I thought I'd get the Ollie's version given the price.
Still, happy to see this one's value more accessible to those (Like me) who missed the initial batch.

I haven't watched nxt in a good minute, but I do notice figures are in higher demand when the character wins a title.
