I doubt many of you will actually read all that I'm about to type. Ha-ha.
After I got out of class on Tuesday evening, I went over to TRU to buy Gears of War 3. I got an email about a promotion that if you bought the game you got a figure 2-pack on Marcus Fenix and a Locust Grunt. As I was going to buy it anyway I figured I would go and check it out. I saw the figures and absolutely loved them! While I was there I, of course, had to see what figures they had to maybe take advantage of the BOGO sale. Sadly, the only one I really wanted was Defining Moments Series 4 Triple H. I have been wanting this figure for a while now. I remembered reading about TRU and their policy about price adjustments within 7 days, so I went looking for the manager. She told me that I could go ahead and buy the Triple H, then come back on Friday and see what the truck brought. If I found any then they would be able to adjust the price as long as I had my receipt. Either way I left happy knowing that I at least finally had DM Triple H.
I went back this morning after class around 11:30. I was disheartened to see that there was nothing knew on the shelf. To my surprise, I turn around to see two boxes with the Mattel logo on them. One box read "WWE Elite Collection Series" and the other read WWE WrestleMania Collection Series or something to that effect. I have never done this before while hunting for figures but I grabbed both boxes and proceeded to open them. Honestly, it was a very exhilarating feeling! I opened the "Elite Collection" box first and found it to be Series 10! Next, I turned my attention to the WM27 box and was surprised when I saw the brand-new WrestleMania 27 series. I guess I've been slacking on keeping up with the releases and didn't know about that one.
With a few moments of deliberating, I decided that I would go ahead and get three figures and not worry about the whole receipt scenario. As you can see by the accompanying pictures I choose to buy Elite Series 10 Kane and John Morrison, and WM27 Undertaker. This week resulted in me spending over $60 in wrestling figures, not counting the $60 I already spent on the video game. But hey, it's not a regular thing for me. Typically I buy a new one every month to two months, so I'm not too worried about it. Now I just have to stop being lazy and make a video for YouTube channel so I can open the damn things! Ha-ha.
