Thanks for letting us know mate. I am due for another order with RSC, but those prices against a weakened Aussie dollar are not ideal, sadly. EDIT: Did an order earlier on, which included a few loose figures, most notably DM Bret Hart. Such a great figure, still my favorite Bret Hart mattel figure, and in my top 2 DM figures too. The leather jacket is pretty incredible and if you ave your figures on display, him holding the Canadian flag really sticks out nicely. Enjoy it! I just got a Diesel for 50 including shipping off Amazon. Maybe try that? I saw that the other week. I wonder if he's still up for that price. I was going to get him but I went with WM XXX Bret and EG HBK instead. I feel like I should be kicking myself for that, but the EG HBK is just too good. |

Wow, happy I picked up an E6 Batista for 5 bucks last week, I couldn't bring myself to spend anywhere near what ringside wants.

Thanks mate, I have Pillman and Davey Boy so Bret is a logical addition - I have a Jakks Canadian flag I can use. Cheers! |

Confirmation that there is no figure tree from a locked thread: RingsideC2 said:You have to keep in mind Battle Packs 22 was released 12 months ago! When an item sells out and is no longer being produced, the only way we can carry it is by purchasing it on the secondary market. So we can either purchase it on the secondary market and charge around the market price or not carry it at all. Contrary to popular belief, we do not have a "figure tree" growing in the backyard.  So that's that! But the issue of reproducing figs has not been addressed. I'm mainly talking about exclusives popping up like Macho Madness, Cactus Jack, Matty Andre, SDCC Undertaker, etc... |

And im sure RSC can re-produce there own exclusives without any extra paper work. and they dont have to explain where they get the figs , as ur post somewhat blames them for not disclosing that..lol. Im also assuming you believe they did have a figure tree out back eh? |

Im also assuming you believe they did have a figure tree out back eh? I was simply showing they shut down the figure tree theory but not the reproducing figures theory. I'm not a fool, so no, I did not believe the tree theory. The reason I'm curious about the reproduction of figures is that SDCC Undertaker which was released in 2010, now nearly 4 years later they have an abundance of loose ones on the site which they have put on sale to help move it. Another issue with reproducing figures, if they are, is pricing. When pre-orders go up, the price is higher, then it's released and after a couple of months the price drops a little or they include them in all sales. Then when stock gets low the price goes up some and then it's sold out. After a few months of being sold out, they start the cycle again. To me it's a pricing issue and there is no sense of urgency for me to buy any exclusive because of this. So, now that I explained myself to the unofficial defender of RSC without needing to. Have a nice day and "lol" somewhere else, "eh"? |
