Also anyone know if the Mattel stores carry the new WWE figures? If no one knows I may as well call before I go. Even if they dont have Hardy I would like to see what others they may have.

DAMN! The seller told me when he asked the cashier she told him it had been tucked away behind a huge row of MVP's since CHRISTMAS. I think this is the post all hopefuls should see. If its been there since Christmas, then it was with one of the first shipments, and as far as we know the only one found anywhere. If this fig was sent with wave one, and it was meant to be released, wouldn't more of them been found? This appears to be a slip through ths cracks fig and not a sign of release figure. Maybe in second or third shipments, he will show up. Who knows. I just think it looks not very likely. Good point. I think what may have happened is that Mattel stores were sent stock very early, before Hardy was cancelled.

Damn that is so tight!
That fig would be worth a ton if if was mass produced!
Being one of the only figs if the only one means it is supper rare and with 2 days and some hours left it is already at $232 + shipping!
Lucky bastard.

It is a cool figure, but I would never spend what people are currently bidding for it.
The most money I've ever spent on a figure was for the Jakks's WrestleMania 22 Rey Mysterio Exclusive and the Classic Superstars Series 11 Red & Yellow Hulk Hogan; both costing me $55 a piece.

Well considering some of the JAKKS 1/100's fetch this much.... this Hardy may be even more difficult to find than a JAKKS 1/1000 so a little over 200 isn't all that much considering the circumstances.
lol, no way I am willing to pay that much though.

DAMN! The seller told me when he asked the cashier she told him it had been tucked away behind a huge row of MVP's since CHRISTMAS. Gotta call bullshyt on the seller. If this was a figure canceled early in the run jeff would have been featured on the card back of not only his box, but early versions of the other 5 guys. Later production would have excluded him from the other 5 card backs. Not the other way around like we have. Only examples I can think of a figure being found later and not featured on any card back are late run figures. I'm a pessimist on these things usualy but theirs way too much pointing to the fact that this is just a figure that was canceled and then re added later on to coincide (production time wise) with the hardy DVD being re confirmed. How many of them get produced at the end of the run is another question entirely.

I agree when i called the lady at the fort worth store around 10:30 am where he found it at she told me they did have it in stock but sold it and they only just got the wwe stuff in less than 2 weeks ago. She was looking through everything on the pegs reading them off one by one and knew what she was talking about she got to mark henry and said i dont like how he sweats when he wrestles....lol...so she seemed pretty knowledgeable on the product and the wwe in general.

We need to find a member that lives close to a location and can check it out. How awesome would it be to get someone to grab some, and sell them to the board members for JUST cost + shipping. Say they grab five, and have a thread done like a giveaway. People sign up, a week later names are randomly chosen, and those people pay him, and he ships them out. Personally, I'm not a Jeff fan, or interested in the figure - but I was closer to Dallas (eight hours away) - I'd totally do it to help out my fellow WFers. damn there are 5 near me but none have them..yet

I think we should all start checking our local toy stores for any elite series 1 restocks. I am pretty sure by next week we will see tons of posts about people finding the jeff.

I agree with anyone who says in the next few week we will be seeing Elite Jeff Hardy popping up. If this is a rare figure though I think that's am extreme amount of money. But congrats to however wins. Cause that is a sweet fig. Kim

If anyone does go to a Mattel store, particularly the one where this guy found it, check the cardbacks of the other guys to see if Hardy's on there. I'd love for this to be added to a second wave of Elite 1, but it doesn't make much sense. He was never officially announced in the line and why would they add an unsigned, legally-iffy wrestler later? If anything, it seems more reasonable to me that Jeff was in some very very early shipments. But I hope you're right. I really want that figure.

This could have been an in-package prototype, developed for a toy show like Toy Fair. And then it was canceled before the production run, and this one was accidentally shipped out to the Mattel store.
MAYBE.

I would have been willing to fork over a hundred plus for that , before his epic TNA surprise "return" that just didn't sit right with me. So I'll pass.

If it does end up in stores, I feel sorry for the person who ends up spending $275+ on it.
