Ok so I started collecting three weeks ago
First pack i bought was Santino/Beth cause i wanted to update my Beth, cause i hated the jakks one.
then I updated Orton, Then Micheals. and then it kept growing
So as of right now, the only figures i am missing is Kofi and Bourne from Basic 1
Stone cold from Heritage
Kozlov from Basic 2
and Miz and Morrison from Two packs 2
I dont collect elite. So thats it, Kozlov, Miz Morrison and Austin will be easier to find then Bourne and Kofi, since Walmart, Kmart, Target and TRU never restocked the first series.
although HBK, Jericho, and Batista are Warming shelves here in PA.
Wish me luck with the last six. then i will be happy until Basic 3 and 2 packs 3 come out.
Im just replacing my jakks figures at this point.
however. I still think my Undertaker, Kane, and Orton are too tall. Taker and Kane are about as tall as Big show. is that correct?
and rey looks like a midget compared to taker

Kane and Big Show are both billed at 7', so them being roughly the same height is correct on Mattel's part. And, Rey looks very small compared to them in real life too. Enjoy the collecting though!

I saw a bunch of Koszlov at Toys R Us yesterday so he should be hard to find. I saw 2 Miz & Morrison 2-packs at Target yesterday as well.

The heights are correct, kanes only a small amount under big show and the fig represents it pretty well. Taker/rey may seem startling but look at their recent SD contests, rey really does look that small next to taker. Either way congrats on all the buys so far and best of luck with the last ones.

Rey is a way small figure. Doesn't bother me too much because he's proportioned the right way. I like the different sizes.

I was going to go to the Bergen Mall Target this morning but I went up to the Rte. 23 Walmart and Target instead. Walmart had all of Basic 2 and Target had all the new 2-packs.
Stopped in at the Wayne Hills Toys R Us on the way home, they had a lot of Basic 2. I found a 1/1000 Kane there on Tuesday. Then exchanged a CS LJN Rock for CS27 Barbarian at KMart.

Did they have Elite 2 at the Rt 23 stores? Because I was going to go there this morning, until my wife told me there was a Target in the Bergen mall now. I didn't know anything was there since Value City left, but one of her co-workers said they opened a Target there. So I decided to go there instead and found my Elite 2 Orton.

No Elite 2 in any of the Toys R Us locally to me(Rte. 17, Rte. 4, Wayne) or the Targets (Hackensack or Rte. 23. The only store I didn't check between Tuesday and Today was the Bergen Mall Target and I had planned on getting there tomorrow maybe.
Rte. 23 Target had nothing good for single figures but multiple 2-packs of Finley/Hornswoggle, Miz/Morrison, and Primo/Carlito.
Everywhere else was filled with Basic 2.

Thanks. So I'm glad I made the right choice. The Bergen Mall still has 2 of everyone else minus the Orton and one HHH. At least they did when I left at 8:40

I'm only looking for figures with the 1/1000 belts.
On a side note KMart has discounted all the Classic Superstars to $11.
Thanks

They only had two Bourne and a Big Show. None were 1/1000's and according to the scanner there wasn't anything in the stockroom.

PJ, youre talking about the Bergen Towne Plaza, the Target next to Baskin Robbins and Wetzel Pretzel, Nike and such? In with the Century 21? I was thinking of heading up there this evening. They had everyone left this morning?

It's on Rt4 it used to be a Value City. I think there's a Nike there. But they had everyone except Orton left from Elite 2 when I left this morning.

The only height imo that has been off so far is the miz. he is as tall as jack swagger and orton. other than that, it's been fairly accurate so far.

Well in Altoona PA the target just had Bourne there the other day. I was surprised to see it because he hasn't made to many appearances here. So they still pop up every now and then so keep checking.
