Two different Wal-Marts, three Targets, and three Toys R' Uselesses.....
NO Elite 15. Sucks.
However, the one TRU I went to had a lone Rey Mysterio. I had one of the employees there scan the package to see if there might be any more in the back. Much to my surprise, she said that there WAS one case in the back, and that an employee would bring it out for me. "YES!" I think to myself! Finally, Sin Cara, Truth, the tag belts!
She brings it out, plops the box down, opens it up for me....aaaaaannnd.....
A nice fresh case of series 13. Are you.....effing.....kidding me? To go from such a high, and excitement-- to this low of lows? Damn it.
There was also a lone TRU Exclusive Stone Cold there, that I passed on.
Oh, and one of the Wal-Mart's, I saw my first case of swapping. An Elite 13 Cody Rhodes with a series 1 two pack in it's place (scuff marks and all. Fine job, Wal-mart employee!), and an Elite 10 big Show with no accessories. Wastes of space.

that mysterio could have been a return. maybe someone who bought the set in advance did a blind return for store credit.

I saw two Elite 15 Mysterio's at my TRU so i don't think it was a return. These are popping up everywhere now but i haven't seen any others.

Oh, yay. A 17 year old smart ass. Dammit, how'd you guess my age? Anyway, you should be happy that you're able to buy Elites, don't complain. |

Because most CHILDREN between the ages of 16 to 18 have the tendency to act like they know all the inner workings of the universe-- when in all actuality, they're just ignorant, cynical morons. They add nothing of value to any conversation, think it's cool to be ironic, or to go against the grain, and really are nothing more than a leeches to their parents, and a burden to society. Plus, you get boners for no good God damn reason. Control yourselves. And who complained? I merely shared my experience from the day. |

My TRU went from E15 back to E13.
I just checked the figure findings thread, I found E13 at TRU on Feb. 10, 2012 and TRU is still shipping them in August. I live on the east coast so the west coast must have had them weeks before my first finding.

They do returns without receipts still, but for store credit. But it could have been all that was left from a case. The cases I've been finding of Elite 15 at my TRU all have been - 2X Rey 2X Cara 1X Yoko 1X Truth 1X Bourne 1X Henry So someone could have bought a set and an extra Cara or They could have bought the set and somone else could have bought the second Cara leaving Rey |

I can understand your frustration. It happens to me all the time. But that's just what comes with being a collector. Some good days of findings, some bad.
One time, I spent 3 days, going to about 24 different Targets looking for the newest Elite Ziggler. None of them had it. I ended up just ordering it online.
