Fred Meyers is a diamond in the rough, a very limited number of stores in the Northwest. I found an Elite Chavo Guerrero back in June, an Elite 5 Ziggler not long before that, and countless other old Elites not found elsewhere anymore. Yesterday I was lucky to find that there was a buy 2 get 1 free sale on all action figures. As a result, I finally picked up that Swagger with the singlet on in the package as well as another Finlay. Very surprisingly however I also found the Elite 5 Kozlov with the logos on the jacket.

Nice! Which Fred Meyer? I haven't been there lately, but I remember the one in the Salmon Creek district of Vancouver having the Guerrero, Swagger and Kozlov for the longest time!

At first I thought "for ffs, who's bumping old threads?", but yeah, those are sweet finds, Koslov looks to be the later variation with the writing on the sleeves too.
