Has anyone found a case with three Brets and one Piper? I found 3 Brets and 1 Piper on the shelf today but am unsure if that Wal Mart may have received multiple sets and a few sold. You're store got two cases. Each box has 2 each of piper and bret.

Just found a fresh case of piper and bret. Two are going to zen411. Brets heads are rough but I can tell with glasses on they won't be as bad but woof.

I got elite 107 finn balor today in the mail. First off amazing figure. But holy crap on the hips and knees. Go back to the smooth ball joints.

Sometimes you need to get an edge over those people. At the end of the day these are going to homes of collectors. On the flip side if he didn't get to them, someone else perhaps a scalper would have. Look, I work a part time time job at target, 1 day a week. Do I like working at target? Absolutely not. But I chose to work there to support my habit. Doesn't interfere with my main job at all and I get piece of mind knowing I can get a figure I'm after from them. Nothing is stopping you from doing the same. Yes, let's all get part-time jobs at Walmart & Target just so we can buy the exclusive wrestling toys out of the back room. I'll share that info in the interview "oh I don't really want to work here. I just want first-crack at all your toys. When do I start?" I miss the 90's when you could collect figures WITHOUT having to take a job at the store. I agree, your brother is a saint for rescuing these rare figures from hitting the public shelves & risking them falling into the hands of a scalper. He's a regular Robin Hood! All jokes aside, I'm glad you got what you wanted. And I'm jealous. I'm also incredibly discouraged at THE WAY you got them. As it means this is going to be just as difficult (or worse) for those of us without "connections" or "anomolies" to get these into our collections. I'm being honest here but definitely look into making a hot wheels guy a lookout guy. They hit multiple stores a day.

Brock should have literally been anyone else there was no need for a UE Elite Brock when they basically released the same figure in RA 1 but that's Mattel for you cut cost wherever they can, would have been cool to have a HHH representing the Era What's weird is ue brock lesnar would scan as Shawn Michaels. Makes you wonder if they had an awesome ue hbk in the works or just a weird glitch.

Yes! He'd be a great addition. I would buy a few different looks.

I can understand both sides of the argument here. I'm happy to get a second chance at a few of these (kane,cena,taker). But it would be cool if they switched up attires/heads here and there on some of these rereleases.

This line is just becoming more of a joke.
1st wave is bad besides Austin. Let's make hall 5'10. Now let's get rid of a awesome rey mysterio figure. But I'm sure their buddies will get samples of.

It’s crazy how long he was on TV and how few elites we got. Elias did well for bringing this character in 2016. He tied Zack Ryder in elites. Who was there when mattel got the license. And is buddy buddy with sweaty bill.

No I don't feel this way. More so on the slow reveals. I cherry pick my figures nowadays. This just another opportunity to save some money. I don't collect retros, or superstars unless it has a decent accessory I can put onto an elite or ultimate then I basically give the superstar figure away. Mostly legends, with an occasional Seth here a Cody there etc. Target has been getting 90-95% of my money for the last couple of years. You must have a very good target. Mine is awful.

What a letdown. That hall was a top priority but idk now. Taker looks awful. Austin is a definite pick up and maybe hogan. Kinda happy I'll be saving some money I guess.
