Thanks for the great pics & info! As good as the entrance greats are i think they should have been elite style figures for the price they charge but thats just me. They look awesome i'm glad i skipped the Jakks ones.

Not that I would at all condone it or try it, but could Mattel have possibly made those Flex Force figures any easier for people to steal?

It has to kill you to know they have them and just won't put them out. I know that the ToysRus I grabbed my set of Series 1 from also had another case in the stockroom and they got in trouble for even putting out the 1st case that I grabbed so now they are waiting to put the other out until the 1st. My area Targets and ToysRus have all Jakks figures cleared out and are ready for the release on the 1st so I'm excited because at least I know that being there when they open I will be able to get what I want. It was weird seeing Zero wrestling figures on the shelves at all these stores today. Not that I would at all condone it or try it, but could Mattel have possibly made those Flex Force figures any easier for people to steal? Its hard to see from the pics but when you look closely they are all bound by clear plastic either below the waster or around the waste so that they don't just rip out of the cardboard. But yeah when I looked at them I thought that too. Its cool the way they have them if you are a moc collector because you can still check out the articulation and stuff with them having no plastic bubble.

So what happened to the HBK from Entrance Greats? As I mentioned above, Mattel took HBK out of series 1 and we don't know why but it could be because it was not ready for release, or it did not make the first shipments and could still be coming out or Mattel decided to push it back to series 2 so that each set of Entrance Greats has 2 superstars per set. There could be a number of reasons. But The case at my Walmart did not include HBK and the back of the packaging only shows Triple H and Mysterio.

I think it was because early they showed the figure and the stand and box said WM22.

Great new stuff. I didn't know that the entrance greats have a stand that plays their entrance theme. That is cool. I hope they plan to make more of these figs because 2 per series is pretty low.

I tried the entrance music sound button and it is pretty horrible to the point where you can't even tell what its saying and it only gives you a 3 second clip from the song. But I could care less as I didn't buy it for that. Just a heads up though.

Unless I'm mistaken, does that Entrance Great Rey Mysterio have pure black eyes with no iris around the pupils...?

DAMN IT! I haven't been able to find anything. If my TRU, Target, or WalMart doesn't have Mattel figures on the first I might have to riot. Sorry for the outburst. Good finds.
