TRU by Fox Valley Mall has some of the Teddy Long BAF. I saw Ziggler, ADR, and Orton. Not sure if they had Brock. They also had Cena for the John Laurinaitis BAF set and I believe a Sheamus. One E20 Cody, a few E20 Punks, and a few E20 Cena. I picked up the only E20 Christian, Santino, and Jericho I saw. This was as of 12:30 today.

Wow. Elite 20 came out fast. Anyone know if they've shown up at Walmart? Or just TRU so far?

I love what Mattel has done. There's no perfect toy out there, and Mattel has to appease various collectors. Those who collect MOC don't worry about loose joints. Those like me who collect out of the package but simply display them, can get away with loose joints (and some super glue), and others want to play with them and have full mobility (which they nailed with E19 Kane).
Looking back on what Jakks had done, and what we have now, is a HUGE leap forward. Although we have many Rey's, he's in scale! There can always be improvements, and I wish (like many) that the legends line was still around, but at least they give us Flashbacks.
So I say bravo to Mattel! No hatin' from me!

Meijer in Oswego (off of rt. 34) had an E17 Kelly Kelly, E18 Brodus, E18 Barrett, E18 Sin Cara, E17 Zack, and an Alicia Fox. This was yesterday about 4:00. Also had the Cena Fruity Pebbles. They have an end cap of figures plus some down the aisle. Only one each of everyone I mentioned.

I like it. Especially because I love it when tag teams actually look like tag teams. Now if they would only drop the dancing gimmick . . .

If anyone is still looking for the Brodus / Hawkins two-pack they have three of them at the Walmart in Montgomery (off of Douglas). This was as of 3:30 yesterday. They also had one HBK (main aisle) from the Wrestlemania Heritage series.

Great figs. I did the same thing with my Jakks Crush head, but I couldn't stand the huge melon.

So how's that new WWE Championship doing? oh that's right we didn't even SEE the belt on live TV last night. what a ing joke. Punk/Cena was pretty damn awesome to be honest. It was a perfectly worked match, the two guys trying to wear each other down in the beginning....realizing that didn't work so they literally busted out as many power/finishing style moves that they could and it STILL didn't work. Plus the crowd was apecrap by the end cheering for pretty much everything. The finish was fine, because essentially it became "who can hit the next finishing move" and in the end they had to let Cena have this one. What it boils down to is Punk/Cena is pretty much this generations Austin/Rock. Without the repetition of matches. Each time these guys have squared off it's been different, and it's been damn great. They haven't over-exposed either of them and all the matches they have had have been 50x better than their matches with Rock respectively. All I want in life is good WRESTLING and last night we were treated to that. Well said. There were elements of the Cena vs. Punk match that reminded me of how I felt watching Steamboat vs. Savage. The match had a PPV quality feel to it, with both men delivering big time. The hot crowd made a huge difference to the vibe, and the multiple kick-outs and false finishes were great. In the end, although I'm not a Cena fan, I found myself cheering for both men.

If it's a no brainer then it must be: Headshrinker Fatu, "Make a Difference" Fatu, The Sultan, and Rikishi.
It simply must be.

I need some advice...should I open WM heritage Macho Man? I want too cause I don't have one but idk if I should. If you collect for money or you're a MOC collector, then don't open it. Otherwise, open it and enjoy your figure.

Just won an Elite 13 Edge on eBay for $39.99+ free shipping. Considering these are going for much more I'm really happy with the deal. After seeing ckhybrid post his pick ups with photos of Elite 13 Edge with Elite 20 Christian, I knew I had to pick him up.

Thanks for sharing and for the pics. Because of the Edge and Christian pics you posted, you pushed me over the fence to bid on an Elite 13 Edge on eBay. Hoping I win it! Great pick ups!

Anyone find anything at Big Lots lately? Or Ross? Wondering if it's worth hitting any of them.

Anyone seen B25 at TRU? I'm looking for Otunga. I haven't yet, but I have seen him at the Walmart in Montgomery. He's since been bought. So you may have success at a Walmart. I'll keep my eyes open.

I just want to know how to get the elbow pad on Kane with the glove hand Boil and pop. You need to put Kane's gloved hand in very hot water for about a minute so it softens the joint. Right after you take it out of the water, pull the hand off. The glove sleeve will then come off. Put your elbow pad on, put the sleeve back on and pop the hand back on.
