Well...RSC is running better now so I broke down and placed another order. This time I ordered both DM5, PPV10 Del Rio, PPV11 Big Show and a back order set of 2 Packs 10.
I was real hesitant on ordering the basic style figs but when with everything I put into the order it comes out to be about $14 per basic figure shipped which I guess isn't too bad considering they are $11 each now at retail. And that was me looking at the 2 DM figs costing retail at $25 each. So I figured it was a good enough deal to pull the trigger. Only problem is I have to wait until late Sept to get them since I have to wait for the 2 packs 10 backorder. But who knows when the 2 packs will hit retail and I'm not risking stores skipping on the set and missing out on them. So I'll just have to suck it up and wait for the others until the end of Sept. Still should have everything a good month or so before retail.
Now that I dropped $270 on RSC today I guess it's time to pick up some overtime at work to cover it all...lol.

DAMN DID RSC GET SCREWED FROM THE LEGENDS LINE. THOSE GUYS ARE COOL AND TRUSTWORTHY!!! MATTEL HAS TO CONSIDER THREE LEGENDS INSTEAD OF ONE EVERY OTHER MONTH THIS IS LUDICROUS!!! I'M ALL FOR LEGENDS ITS WHAT GIVES VARIATION, NOW I GOTTA SIGN UP WITH MATTYCOLLECTOR THIS IS BS, OVERALL NICE FIGS THOUGH CAN'T WAIT TO SEE SOME PHOTOS RSC YOU GUYS GOTTA GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS!! At least We can still buy legends even if they are not on RSC I have signed up at Mattycollector just to see what happens but nothing like a login with information and password...I'm hoping things GO SMOOTHLY WITH THEM

So Shango is 0 per case, but how hard do you think it really is gonna be to find him retail? Otherwise thats the only one I will pre-order the others im sure in time I will be able to find around me. That one I worry about. Any other examples of 0 per cases figs? It's 0.5 per case. Other examples are Regal in series 8, and both members of the Hart Dynasty in series 7. Thanks! I really didn't have a problem finding those 3 so hopefully I won't have a problem with Shango

Just to be safe and avoid price inflation I ordered E12 Kane. Already placed orders with E11 Punk & Miz. And another order for DM5 Bret
So thats $110 for me. All great buys but my real prize will be getting that WM 27 Rock!

The (battle pack) Cody on display on the RSC pics has a different head than the one on the slideshow... I think the one on the slideshow (the elite 3/two-pack 2 & 11) head suits the Grotesque gimmick better. The one on display is smiling, which Cody hasn't done a lot of since he started wearing the mask.

The one on display is smiling, which Cody hasn't done a lot of since he started wearing the mask. I just noticed that as well. I'll have to do a triple head swap now as I think his 2 packs 8 scan would look cool with the mask on. If it fits that is. If not I'll definitely be swapping his 2 packs 11 & 13 heads.

I really want to order Bret and maybe a Miz, so I'm hoping I have a decent check tomorrow.

To those asking if the debut Kane mask is removable...why WOULD it be removable? He didn't remove his mask at that time period in his career. I honestly think it would be very stupid if it were, in fact, removable.

Trevor said earlier that Christian is the shortpacked figure. I know but at one point I checked it said back-ordered and it was $23.99. I check again and its $29.99.

CM Punk mania continues to run rampant. Crazy dollars being thrown around here. DMs at $25 a pop is robbery.

I find it strange how the most popular figure, (MiTB '11 Punk) is only $19.99, while all of the other Elite 11 figs are $21+

DM's are $26.99 at Walmart (at least near me they are), so $25 for it, AND getting it before retail is a pretty good deal. Different topic: It might be better to wait on Elite 11, because Ringside has a big Cyber Monday sale normally every year, by that time, E11 will be around $14-17 a piece.
