Hello to all my fellow Mattel-chasers! I just wanted to clear up the rumors that the mysterious unmarked/un-named series that we think are preliminary Basic figures are NOT Target exclusives. I saw the set yesterday at Wal Mart:
-Chris Jericho- purple -Batista- black -John Cena- blue arm/wristband in blue jean shorts Basic 1 re-release -Shawn Michaels- 2pack re-release
Again, I saw these at Wal Mart, so this clears up any thoughts that these are an individual store exclusive for Target. I purchased Jericho and will upload pics of my updated Mattel collection. ;D

Thanks for confirming that. I don't really like how they are doing re releases because they suck and remind me of Jakks. .

Yes, I do agree, but there are only 2 re-releases and they are of Cena and Shawn Michaels, which will be some of the hardest to find, and will sell no matter what. So, I don't mind with that, and you know that series 1 will fly off the shelves anyway.

If that HBK is a straight re-release. Where did the DX HBK come from?

The John Cena is absolutely -*NOT*- a re-release.
The Basic series 1 Cena has black highlights on his shoes and an armband. The unmarked series has pure white shoes and no armband.

This is good news, I suppose, but the thought of store exclusives was fun while it lasted.
Then again, I wouldn't want to have to track down figures in so many different stores.

I dont know how anyone can complain about the rereleases or repaints. They werent ever listed as being in the series and they arent taking up the space of other figures in a different series. They are just extras.
