I've been calling a lot of toys r us stores for about the past 2 weeks and still have had no luck at all with finding daniel bryan boppv. I live in the Chicago land area suburbs and for the most part i've always fiund the figures i want. Last week, I called a toys r us about 40 minutes away from me and they said they had all the figures except for bryan. I didn't go because that was the only figure i wanted and then i find out someone from my area bought daniel bryan from the toys r us after i had called. I guess the lady did not see him. Its just frustrating. I called a toys r us near me this morning and the employee says he is looking for daniel bryan as well so if he can't find it, how will i. Its just frustrating and im just venting!

You know what's really frustrating....living in a country that doesn't sell even ONE Mattel WWE figure (like me). In other words....chill, eventually you will get them  |

Sorry guys. That is very frustrating. I have been fortunate enough to come across Daniel Bryan on four different occassions. Im sure if you give it some time he will be everywhere. I know its frustrating because you want him now. Im going thru the same looking for the Exclusive Triple H. Problem is I am like a chikd. Lol. Once I saw it posted on here that some peolpe found him, i wanted him immediately. A fault of mine I guess you can call it gots to have its. Good luck finding him. I hope it works out for you

I'm from Chicago too. Try calling them on Thursdays at 10. Thursdays are usually when I found the good stuff. I called tru in south Elgin last Thursday and they had Bryan.

I call tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays. I called the south elgin store last thursday in the morning and they said they did not have bryan but then I saw that you bought him so it just makes me question the employees when i talk to them on the phone |

People just need to chill. I'd say 90% of TRU's in the country haven't even gotten the Series in yet.
It's going to be just like Bret Hart and Christian....eventually there will be revision cases and they will be more than 1 per case, and in 6 months everyone will be bitching that this Series is "clogging the shelves".
I really don't understand how at this point in the game people don't realize that EVERY Toys R Us exclusive ends up shelf warming after an initial period of being hard to find. TRU's are STILL restocking the John Laurinaitis BAF set...so people who in DECEMBER were bitching that they would NEVER find it....yeah, almost a year later you still have opportunities to complete this. Paul Heyman will be the same,
Sorry everyone feels like THEY should be the first person to always find the new stuff, but some times you just have to wait a little bit.

They've been out for about two weeks but I've already wasted a lot of time looking them. Yesterday I couldn't get to my TRU until 10:30, of course Bryan was gone by then. I have three TRUs nearby but I could find them at only one store.

I suggest actually going to the store, not calling. Not everyone at the store knows what you are looking for or even really looks for that matter. If you want it bad enough, go to the store and look.

Yea this set has been tuff I mean how can you make a build a figure But short pack a piece to build the figure what the heck kind if bussiness is that ,yea consumers go buy the build a figure but you won't b able to build it cause the case has 2-3 of each part but only 1 fig with the leg ??really?really?....really?? I've Run into this problem I have a half a Heyman no legs please mattel do even case counts or whatever for these build a figs it makes no sense to short pack and to shirt pack one of the most popular guy at the moment ..OK rant over  |

This set is going to be so easy to find come Christmas time everyone's going to be complaining About it. What I'm not liking is the lack of e23. Taker should not be this hard to find.

Mattel is hoping that you will pick up another figure (or something else that is made by them) every time you're there. |

Let me say this..... Stop the rant. Right now were bugging about the Wmania elite set and e23. When we get that, we'll bug for e24. So please people, lets just ease off. Yes, we will keep up predictions, but the complaining about how it's not there, you'll get it |

A single figure or doll to get an increases in store traffic, fine. Finding three out of four figures makes me want to snap Geoffrey Giraffe's neck. Just kidding about the last part. |

Yea true I understand the concept but when there's pegs of Cena ,big show and rumblers I won't buy anything I spend more extra on gas that goes to gas companies than extra unwanted figs but yea it makes sense what your saying but what about the parents that buy for their kid and can never find the last piece because the collectors like me are on the stores like hawks lol it's al good the hunt continues no big deal but it's gotta be only toy r us exclusives that are short packed my daughters toys pet shop or ponies have exclusives but they aren't short packed like these but aye were all at the mercy if "the man" so just keepin my eyes and ears open in my area!! |

I have 2 CM Punks 1 Brock and 1 John Cena for sale. I'm asking $30 shipped each. They cost me a little over $22 each with the sale and I'm just trying to make a few bucks for gas and time spent if any1 is interested hit me up. They are $26.99 in stores so $30 shipped isnt too bad.

Considering stores are now flooded with the Big Johnny set, I'm fairly certain patience is the key, kimosabe.
