I was at my buddy's toy shop and he had one Hulk Hogan Elite 34 mint in box marked for 70 bucks. As we were talking some guy asked if he could see so my buddy says sure and hands him the box, while that guy is looking at the figure another dude walks up and says I will give you 90 for it as the other guy was still checking the figure out LOL So the other guys says I will give you 95 lol and all of a sund a bidding war breaks out, long story short the dude that walked in bought the figure for 160 bucks! lol Any of you guys see anything crazy like this in regard to WWE Mattel figures and I'm not talking about the insane prices on ebay lol.

And that was one of the least popular Mattel Hogan figures. No joke, I just checked ebay and that figure in box is going for a hundred dollars or more. Hogan can still move merchandise in 2021. |

It’s like Mattel would capitalize on his popularity and make a ton of Hogan’s in a year instead of just one... Oh wait, that’s what they’ve done.

Thats outrageous money for that figure, especially since its not an iconic wrestling gear.
My story was a dad buying his son a Warrior elite in the store. I noticed someone swapped the elite with a basic Warrior in the packaging. His son didn't know the difference. I had to give him the heads up, before he made that mistake.

I ain’t getting into a bidding war if I have it in my hands and the price says $70. I’m paying $70 and keeping it or selling it to the other guy.

Yeah, either I'm buying it for the listed price or I'm never setting foot in the store again. Not great business ethics on the part of the store owner, imo. |

Reminds me of the MOC LJN Warrior story from last year.

Plot twist: The guy was hired to start a bid war with customers lmao
That Hogan wasn't even worth the $20 imo. His best figure around the time is the DM. I also likes the HOF elite too.
