Who doesn't enjoy a mass debate now and again?!
I prefer all figure related info in this thread, including customs charges etc...as well as whats on shelves or on amazon. This is the 1 single thread I bookmark for information.
The ordering thread is general UK buying/ordering so covers dvds, games, clothes whatever.

Bradford Entertainer has the latest Summerslam elites in priced at £20 and basics £10
Cheaper in Smyths, not sure if Entertainer will adjust their price

Cass too! I know he's E55 but he's hanging around like a virus. Same with Alexa. I don't think I've ever seen a figure warm so hard. Just wait till Smyths gets fully stocked with Giant Machine. 😂 Talking of Giant Machine - I couldn't see him on the Smyths website... has anyone seen him in store? (or has he Walked With Elias)? Yes I saw a Giant Machine in Bradford Smyths this evening

Nope... unfortunately Smyths has only been getting 5 out of 6 Elites in a series lately - and for some reason, the figure not included in E60 is Elias. Why have a popular first-time Elite when we can have more Cena and New Day figures to clog the shelves and get reduced? Cass too! I know he's E55 but he's hanging around like a virus. Same with Alexa. I don't think I've ever seen a figure warm so hard. Just wait till Smyths gets fully stocked with Giant Machine. 😂 People werent buying E55 Big Cass when he was still part of WWE, Bradford Smyths has at least 15 of them rotting on pegs I picked up E60 Triple H today, not really interested in the others from the set apart from Elias bit will have to pick that up online

Most fish n chips in Yorkshire are amazing to me! 😋 the Wetherby Whaler in Wetherby, Guiseley, York, Wakefield and Pudsey. It's ironic that the Wetherby version is by far the worst one of them all been the namesake! The York is best. Living in Wetherby you knew never to go to the whaler, better to go down the road to the frying pan, so much better. Murgatroyds in Leeds is up there as best for me now. At school was Drakes in Harrogate. Yes Murgatroyds is nice near Leeds Bradford Airport A local one near me called Towngate Fisheries is very nice, they've got several national awards too

Bought Summerslam Matt Hardy. The interchangeable hands are awesome. Elites seem to be warming really bad in my local Smyths. I think thats the case in most places mate

Smyths is your friend for most new elites If you are lucky you may be able to find WM9 Brutus Beefcake and Berzerker in Smyths for £5 each We've had Warlord recently too Like has been said above, look at the checklist for older figures and it is likely you would have to use the secondary market to pick up most of them I love that era, here is a selection of my Federation-era elites, I keep changing it around but it currently looks like this:

Smyths reductions, as always, subject to what’s in your store: Elite 52 Xavier Woods - £5 Money in the Bank playset (Rollins version) - £20 Hype Bros Battlepack - £5 Basic Tye Dillinger - £5 Basic 76 Sami Zayn - £3 NXT Authentic Scale Ring - £15! Dean Ambrose Retro - £3 Elite 53 Chris Jericho - £10 Wrestlemania Basic Bayley - £3 My local Smyths never usually has much in of figures that get reduced. But they have a few Hype Bros battle packs so think I will be tempted to pick one up, cheers

Let’s play guess the future AWOL fig. E61 I reckon will be Kevin Owens based on how poorly e53 sold. Based on the last couple of missing figures my money would be on Tyler Breeze or Fandango Only time will tell but I wonder if the likes of Entertainer and Home Bargains will get the missing figures when they finally reach these sets?

Puzzling why Elias would be the one missing from the E60 set at Smyths, regardless of whos choice it was.
Elias is a current member of the roster, and first time in the line.
Entertainer cant even shift the New Day elites for £10 or even the Bootyos 3 pack elites for £15. I can see E60 New Day hanging around on pegs a lot longer than Elias would have.

Aye just jumped on to report that too about Elias not being on the Smyths site! Bad do that. Could be an oversight but it’s looking more likely that this is a recurring theme Looks like Sarah didnt have a clue!
