I didn't manage to get out to the stores today due to assorted personal dramas but I did manage to hit up one Wal-Mart that I have never been to before and I found these warming the pegs. Series 1 C.M. Punk x2 & a Royal Rumble Superstar Ring. The ring was on clearance for $13 and the Punks were $17 each. Not bad at all. I think I'm off to a good start. Can't wait til tomorrow to see what I find. Made it out to TRU and K-Mart today. TRU is having a shipping delay with WWE figures. The manager told me that they are having a hard time getting their orders filled by Mattel and that it is holding up their shipments. I don't know how all the logistics work but I'm disappointed to hear that. However they did stock some new Defining Moments figures. Triple H & Ricky Steamboat. On top of that they did manage to get in some more of the Best Of PPV figures and I finally got Bret Hart WITH the Michael Cole pieces intact. Then it was onwards to K-Mart to see if they had Elite 8 Evan Bourne for another member here who was unfortunately taken by that prick down in El Paso that I hope chokes to death on the figures and money he stole from many of the good members here. Bourne was rotting away on the peg and I picked him up. They had Elite 14 which unfortunately someone beat me to because all they had left were The Rock, PPV Cena and The Undertaker. No Alberto Del Rio, Bossman or Booker T. I even had them check in the back but they didn't have any more. I was very disappointed about that until I saw the Basic 12 Alberto Del Rio that was hidden behind some of the RAW Superstar Rings. I was told that K-Mart gets in new stock on Wednesdays so I will have to keep staking out the place until I get my Del Rio.

wow those Punks are great! I know! I am debating on keeping one for myself but I'm not sure yet. Maybe I can trade him for an Alberto Del Rio with the belt and briefcase if my TRU doesn't have one in stock. Do you know what the ring normally retails for? If it isn't pricey I am picking up a whole lot of basics from TRU and I'm going to have to open them to send away for the COO Triple H figures. I don't collect anything but MIB but given the situation maybe I could make a little display or something.

I asked the toy department manager if they had any more and they scanned it and said they had 144 more figures in the back but they wouldn't bring them out for me despite me telling them I would buy over a hundred dollars worth. Too much work I guess. There were 6 MVPs from Series 1 there as well along with a few basics with very damaged carding. When I saw the Punks I got to hunting to see if they had an Elite ring or something else of great value but no such luck. That's ok. I found a new Walgreens location so at least I found new hunting grounds for figures.

At least until I can figure out what to do with them. Half of me says to sell them away for shelf price + shipping to build good bridges here so if another Regal figure comes out I can get it because every single time I REALLY want a figure they just can't be found here. The other little guy on my shoulder, the one with the goatee and pitchfork, says to see if I can trade him away for Alberto Del Rio. Not sure yet. I'll sleep on it.

Wow! That's awesome, congrats! Tell me about it. I asked the toy department manager if they had any more and they scanned it and said they had 144 more figures in the back but they wouldn't bring them out for me despite me telling them I would buy over a hundred dollars worth. That is rediculous that they wouldn't bring them out despite you wanting to pay for them.

I bought an extra E1 Punk at Walmart on clearance........in 2010!!!! Back then my Walmarts were getting rid of Elites after series 2. They started selling them again when series 7 was released.
