LET THE HUNT BEGIN..... my first time finding something first on these boards and man is this a great thing to find first, at least I believe I am the first to find this at retail. I had been hunting all day and Meijer (mid-west chain) was my last stop and it was pouring rain outside, water up to my ankles. Went down the toy isle not to expect much cause they had restocked E16 two previous times before with the Diesel case, and BAM they restocked a 3rd time and this time with the Kevin Nash case and he was sitting right on the end of the peg! They had totally restocked everything, all 3 pegs of elites were full of E16, 5 pegs of basics full (signature series and royal rumble), newest rumblers, and 2 packs fully stocked of battle packs 17. Absolutely nothing had been touched so I got first pick. Grabbed Nash and Rock to finish up my E16 set and grabbed Henry/Trent Battle Pack. And for people who want to see pics they are posted below of me in the store with the figure and a picture of the receipt. Also for those who ask where I live....Indiana! I'll be happy to answer any questions that you may have. Hope you all enjoy and hope this helps some people to find Nash in their area! P.S. Yes I know I look like I am 16 but I am actually 24 lol. Hopefully when I am 40 I will look like I am 28 haha! You know when there is only one of something and you lick it real fast so no one else wants it.....quick lick DIBS!!

Excellent find! Lucky you! I only found Diesel and I've never seen that Kevin Nash before in person!
I see a couple of E16 CM Punk on the pegs there at the background.. Surprised to see that, I thought that Punk figure would be sold out everywhere by now... What a steal to get it at that price. The Elite figures sold here in Singapore are priced at around US$40.. Darn...

Wow I wish we had those stores in California. What are they like walmarts?? Yeah they are exactly like walmarts but much nicer and cleaner. I always say its more of an upscale walmart lol! Reason meijer tends to get things first is since they are only a mid-west chain it doesnt take long for it to go from distribution center to warehouse to stores!
