I was wondering why does Ringside get figures before Mattel's online store? I mean Mattel is making them why ship them out to RS be4 they have any to sell?
Ringside had DM3 and L5 for over a month before mattel had them in stock. Just curious if anyone was wondering the same thing or had an explanation.

Ringside pays to get their 1st shipment overnighted from the factory-that's why they get stuff first, and also why their prices are a bit higher than Mattelshops as well. That's the trade off.

I'm just glad they have been getting some of the newer series lately. I ordered Sheamus and Regal from Elite 8 and Savage, Martel, and Akeem from Legends 5 from them recently. They put them online roughly the same time they show up at retail or a little before from what I've seen (still haven't seen Legends 5 in stores). It sures beats driving around looking for them for hours, days, weeks, etc. Their prices are the same as retail too (plus shipping of course). They ship them quick as well. I ordered the Legends on Saturday and received them on Tuesday. Personally, I don't like to pay double or in some cases triple, just to have them a few weeks earlier. I don't play with them, so I don't see the need. Hopefully, they keep putting new stuff on there in the future and I can save some on gas money!!!!

The only thing about Mattel Shop that irks me, and it's a very minor thing, but they don't seem to put up the whole set up at once. When E8 went up they waited a couple days to put up Undertaker, and when I ordered my Savages they didn't have DM Steamboat up or I would have got him too. The had HHH up, but not the Dragon. Of course he's there now, so I'll wait till E9 goes up to get him.
