Mattel has done a fine job with the WWE line. And they'll only get better. That being said, the American Sting DM figure was a huge disappointment on so many levels. A rare foul ball from an otherwise competent hitter. (and I'm not even making a cryptic reference to Sting and a baseball bat)

SO, is this a WCW Flashback series? For some reason I thought it was going to be the horsemen, in some form.

It's not new. That scan first debuted in Basic 10. They just made him clean shaven this time. It's definitely new. Basic 10 has an entirely different, angrier, teeth baring face and molded on beard. The only time I can think of Mattel painting over a molded beard with skin tone is E30 Batista, though there may be more. My bad. Looks like you are correct sir. I suppose I was just looking at the hair.

I like the new hhh head. I wish it was an attire I wanted. Heenan is the attire I want but something makes me not excited when I see it. It's not new. That scan first debuted in Basic 10. They just made him clean shaven this time.

Edison Walmart - some of E54 remains This is the Walmart off 287? Been looking all over for that Syxx. Sees like everyone here got one shipment of the Flashback, and I'm gonna assume they'll restock. Also, you remember which E54 they had?

I'm getting frustrated with the lack of Elite Flashbacks. They seem to have swarmed the Walmarts closest to me with the basic set, and almost none of them have received the Elites. Where are you located? Staten Island, so closest to Woodbridge I guess.

These were on Target's site? I found DIY at Target about 2 weeks ago, but it's been dry since.

The only place I ever saw Elite 53 was Walgreens. Just saw alexa there yesterday that's it, still need KO,Big E I have an E53 Big E and an E53 Owens that have been sitting on ebay. If you want it, send me a message and I'm sure we can work out something quite reasonable. Boxes have no shelf wear.

I don't think it'll perform any different than the first Entrance Greats series or either of the two Defining Moments runs. I hope I'm wrong, but I will be checking stores like Big Lots if they shelf warm.
TRU near me is selling them for $34.99

Don't waste your time at Staten Island Target or TRU. Both are a barren wasteland. I learned that the hard way tonight. Actually, I found DIY at the Target by the Outerbridge last Wednesday, and a Rich Swann elite the day before. Also found Entrance Greats Angle at TRU.

Rotate the black plastic ring under the torso so that the slots are perfectly aligned with his sides. The slots have two small matching tabs on the post of the legs that have to fit together. I’ve found if they aren’t aligned, it’s enough to cause the legs to easily separate from the torso I was just about to lose my crap because the same thing was happening to me RIGHT NOW. Your suggestion just worked like gangbusters. All set. Thanks, man. Damn, I sill can't get mind to align. After shelling out money for 4 figures at a higher price than normal, and getting...this... really sucks.

I can't get the legs to stay plugged in to the torso. They pop right out. Anything I can do? This is EXACTLY what happened to me with the Booker T BAF. I had to tape it together from the back. Annoying...

I found DIY Wednesday. I went over to the toy section and they must have just unloaded a case of Takeover Series 1. I was about to walk away when I noticed Gargano and I almost pooped my pants.
I also thought it was worth noting these are the old style of basic figs.

A few months back I found someone selling the first Austin defining Moment (the beer truck street attire) in a buy it now auction for $16.99 plus shipping. And when it got here, it's was basically in perfect shape.
Good finds!

Did every Walmart in the country get this series in over the last few days, except mine?
If you did find them, where? Anyone in the NYC area?
