Looked everywhere....haven't found them, is there a retail release date? Does anyone happen to know what the retail price will be? I have noticed that where they are currently available (on line), there is a significant price range depending on what fig you are looking at.
I knew they would be available the first of June, which happened for dealer sales, but I never heard or read when Legends 1 would be available for retail.
-Thanks for your help.....peace out,

No idea when it will hit retail here in America. I saw in Australia it has hit though... A store by me (not A chain retail store) has them in and they are $16.99 (Hawk, Animal), $14.99 (Slaughter, Rhodes) and $18.99 (Austin, Steamboat). My guess is they are the same price as elites considering those prices.
Amazon also has them up for $15.99

there not a retail yet, but my local tru and target both raised Elites to 17.49 so there nearly 20 with tax I just ordered them online to save myself the hassle of running them down in the stores and saved 20.00 and gas and aggravation of looking in the stores.

So Target and TRU raised the prices of Elites? That's insane! These are only toys not gold.

Seriously? I wonder if that is something that they are all doing. I would guess that means some people get a little more picky at which Elites they pick up. Either that or they just keep going to Wal-mart which is where I have gotten virtually everything I haven't ordered off line anyway. If this is in fact something that starts happening, I would guess that price change is coming from Mattel. Changes in prices will probably be coming for the Basics as well if we (consumers) are receptive to the price change for the Elites. Tons of people were already bitching about price so I don't see this helping that situation.

Yeah they are already at retail here in Australia, a few people have already spotted them at Targets here. They are priced a couple of dollars more than the elites at this moment but i dont think thats the proper price.

It won't happen for a while and when it does they will be gone so fast. The one thing I learned from mattels distribution is that you HAVE to know your local stores routines and when they get shipments. Otherwise I would never find anything
and WOOOOOOOO I love your sig. Imagine an Elite entrance great nature boy from the 80s. Wow

Yeah dont think converting it will tell you the actual price of legends in the states because our prices are not proportional. The differ in each of the stores here plus their is international freight charges in that and so forth. If our prices were any indication, a more proper 'conversion' would be like $16 or $17 in the USD.

My area is pretty much the last to get EVERYTHING so unfortunately I can't help you. However all I can say is no, I have not seen Legends Series 1 in any retail stores around me as of yet.
I'd say within the next couple of weeks they should start popping up.

Still expensive but not as bad as $29 lol.

Theres so many things that make up the difference in price though, our prices are never a good guide to what US ones will be. But the legends figures are due to go on sale in a couple weeks here, im kind of waiting til then to buy any.
