Found all of E43 at Big Lots in Derry, NH today for $10 ea. I grabbed the last Bret & ADR along with a KO. Plenty of Joe's and KO's left - one Kofi - one Anvil remaining as of 2PM EDT today.
They also had the whole basic series 68 minus Dana Brooke for $10 ea. (same price as the elites - lol).
Off to ROH in Lowell soon where there may be a Jay Lethal autograph in my future....

Walmart in Bedford, NH had some of the new Basic Series 71 figures. Saw Austin Aries, Charlotte and Undertaker there. Nothing else new that I noticed. Totally did not know there was a Walmart in Bedford. I thought they only had a Target, I will add it into my regular stop list - lol. Thanks for update and the report frantik

Hello All, New Hampshire resident here wrapping up a business trip in New Jersey today. I'm staying in Swedesboro, might any of you have any suggestions on where to figure hunt in this area? Thank you. I would hit up as many Wal Marts, K-Mart, Walgreens, Toys R Us & Target stores as possible. The "Official South Jersery Figure Findings / Store Report" hasn't been updated in months, though. Good luck. Thank you for the assistance. I ended up stopping at a WalMart & a Walgreens in gosh knows where I didn't find much. I did see some nice farmland though. I also had to make one stop in W.Deptford so I searched out the WalMart and Toys R Us - the WalMart was pretty empty and also included a TRU Ringmaster re-packed in an elite Bubba Dudley box. TRU had a decent amount of stock but nothing special - lots of E45, the aforementioned Network Ringmaster (this time in the correct box-lol) and HHH among some of the other standard TRU shelf warming fare. I'm home now in Southern NH. Thanks again for your help.

Hello All,
I am fairly new to the world of fix-ups "customs" (not collecting, been doing that for years-lol). I'm not much of a painter/sculpter (I dabble a bit with painting), but more I like to focus on swapping body parts, adding pads, changing boots etc. I try to stay away from torso cracking
I mainly focus on using elites torso (and usually legs) and work from there.
Lately, I have been picking up some of the lower priced and on sale figures for this purpose. I would love to petition this group for some suggestions/ideas on who to create from these 3 figures:
Network Spotlight Ringmaster Network Spotlight Hunter Hearst Helmsley Elite 1-2-3 Kid.
I'm open to all suggestions, even if it is creating another version of the same character.
Thank you all for reading, and if this is not the correct thread for this subject, mods could you please move it?

Confirming the appearance of the Wrestlemania shipper at the Salem, NH Walmart.
I arrived there about 8AM and there were two guys already going thru it and they bought both of the Cactus figures but they were nice fellas who I shot the breeze with for a few minutes. (there were only 2 of Cactus in the whole shipper, just missed him - lol).
The rest of the shipper contained all the rest of E48 (based on inventory, it looked like possibly Cactus, Boogey, & maybe Rowan could be short packed but it was hard to tell), tons of HHH & Shawn WM elites, and some WM basic battle packs.
$73 later I walked out with 2 of Ambrose (1 for custom), 1 Rowan, & a basic Finn and Brock. (from the regular pegs also for swaps and customs)

No dice in Derry & Salem on Friday either. Here's to hoping they will hit soon. Update: I stopped at the WM again in Salem, NH before work this for morning and they had 1 each of Sami & Macho on the pegs (which I purchased). There weren't any Natural Disasters to be found. I'm guessing that some cases should be making their respective ways a little further north to some of the aforementioned locations by frantik2k3. I stopped at the Hudson, NH WM this morning groceries and they had 1 ea. of the single TNF series 2. I was able to complete the set by purchasing the Disasters leaving the Sami & Macho behind. Of note, I also grabbed a B69 Cena & HHH with slammy awards. I'm going to attempt to hit the "pause" button on my figure purchases for a few weeks now. Let's see how long I can actually hold out - lol.

Wtf man I was randomly in Salem last Monday and it was completely barren Agreed, it was strange to see these two randoms among all the Nasty Boy sets. I hope what your looking for comes your way soon.

Anyone in southern NH have luck finding the TNF Series 2 Elites yet? I struck out this weekend at Hooksett, Bedford and Manchester Walmarts. No dice in Derry & Salem on Friday either. Here's to hoping they will hit soon. Update: I stopped at the WM again in Salem, NH before work this morning and they had 1 each of Sami & Macho on the pegs (which I purchased).

I stopped at the Target in Salem, NH this morning before work. No HOF 2 packs, a small smattering of E44's (Big E, Macho, & Tugboat), plenty of battlepacks with Vince & Austin, the usual handful of Tito's & a few basic 67's.
My pickup was a B67 Harper with Slammy award (only one I saw) for $6.26 after the 40% off Cartwheel app & 5% savings using my Redcard.

I went the Hudson, NH Walmart early this morning and a little less than $90 later-lol I acquired the whole set of the retro's and 1 Shield TNF 3-pack (they didn't have the Bash TNF 3-pack).
When I left they still had 1 Shield pack remaining and several of each retro. Aside from these new finds, the cupboards were pretty bare save for the standard shelf-warming fare.

I stopped at the Hudson, NH WalMart on the way home from the WWE Holiday Tour show (fun show) in Lowell, MA last night (12/10).
Of note, they had several Basic series 64 on the pegs, several of each 2pk from Battle Packs 41, as well as what looked to me to be at least two cases (maybe more) of the Elite Lost Legends wave. I picked up Jericho (last one I needed - thanks Amazon) and I'm inclined to think that they put them out pretty recently as there was no price in the system for them - the sales associate slapped a 17.97 price on it when I checked out.
This is definitely the 1st time I've seen the lost legends wave at retail.

Heenan family is on Tagets website for $28.49 It's the first time that I've seen it there I check quite often (a couple of times a week) being that I have never seen it at any of my local Targets I hope this helps anyone else who has yet to seen them at their local Target Thank you so much for this. This set has not been seen in my area at ALL, I have been searching for months, and this is the last thing I needed from retail...for now. Seconded, thank you for the information. I have never spied these at retail either so I placed an order. My final cost after %5 off using my red card and free shipping $27.07 ($6.76 per figure - not bad at all) Thanks again.

Confirming a sighting of E45 at Wal-Mart in Salem, NH today. I checked about 5PM today and there was 4 or 5 Reigns there - everyone else was gone.

Saw him mentioned earlier in this thread but I second a Stan Hansen.
Also a Bob Backlund with blue tights and winged eagle title. By my count, the last guy that held the winged eagle title that has yet to be released at least once in the line.

Had a pretty satisfying day today.
I stopped at the Wal-Mart in Salem, NH to pick up my site to store order of E43 Bret & Anvil which I paid about $30 total after using my $5 in Wal-Mart credit rewards.
On my way to the pick area I noticed some E43's on the pegs
A few Joes (which I already have so I passed) 1 Kofi (also a pass, may get him eventually) They also had a few ADR's one of which I bought for $17.97 (No KO's or any extra Harts to be found)
I then took a stroll to the back of the toy section and found a bunch of DM UM Warriors on clearance and I picked one up for $9.
Not a bad day at all.
