It was easy to find here except for Punk. I bought the only Punk I ever saw in stores from that set.

My Wal-mart got flooded with that set. They were hard to find for like 2-3 weeks and then all my WMs got slammed with them. Good set for the time but nothing I would go back and buy again or feel like I missed out on.

There were tons of E11 in my area. Every Walmart was absolutely flooded with them. There was still a few Barrett figs on the shelf nearly a year later. Most of the stores in my area never got series 12-14 as a result. Walmart goes way overboard when ordering at Christmas time. They did it again this year with E24. I don't expect to see much at my local Walmarts for the next few months.

I remember getting lucky and finding 2 E11 CM Punks at Walmart in December 2011 and it was about 2 weeks after my first surgery for colon cancer and it was on my birthday when I found them. So with all that happening, finding a good hard to find figure such as E11 Punk at that time felt pretty good.

I never had a problem finding them.... Cause I was the first guy to find them! They didn't last long here though, I think maybe only 1 case & I was lucky enough to snag Punk.

I saw them at TRU, Target and KMart when they were first release 2 years ago or whenever it was.

I only saw elite 20 once.
Never had a problem with anything else in the elite series.

I saw the set many, many times. The Barrett, Cena, Mysterio, and Christian were warming for quite some time at several Walmarts. This was a Christmastime set, I believe, I recall the converted Lawn and Garden section having a huge plastic shelf/table filled with E11 cases.
E15 was the scarcest that I can remember of any Elite series to date for me.

I had no trouble finding this set. I found like six E11 punks at once at walmart.

Does anyone else feel Mattel should put this back up on their site at a fair price so we can actually have a fair chance of getting their product? Yeah, that will happen.

I never had a problem finding them at stores. I found and bought them all in December 2011 and buying an extra CM Punk at my local TRU in September 2012 since they inexplicably had a bunch of figures from Elite 8 and 11 again, which was weird.

How I feel with Elite 22. I still want The Rock. Bought Sandow at a mall stand for $35.

Ya Elite 11 I only saw once and it is a set that was really hot and hard to find for a while and was the favorite Elite set of alot of people but that has since tapered with all the better re-releases of those characters and at the point we are at in the line no longer is a favorite of many. I think I only saw Elite 9 once and some of Elite 12 was tricky to find. I had a helluva time finding Kane from Elite 12 from around this time as well. My area did not get alot of Elites in late 2011 early 2012 other than a crapload of Elite 10.

Only found Punk & Miz once, and that was all I needed to grab them. Didn't really care for anyone else in the set TBH

This series must've avoided California because I barely saw these and I'd hunt every few days. I can honestly say this is one of the scarcer elite sets that I've encountered.

My stores started getting good after Elite 17, although no Elite 16 or 20.
