E7 Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Tyson Kidd & DH Smith. Hart Dynasty warmed the shelves for a while and I was waiting for DX, when they finally popped up, I decided not to. I wasn't a very serious collector at the time & I figured there would be plenty more made of all 4 or they would still be at the store If I ever changed my mind but I was wrong.

And now the prices for it are crazy.

The Honky Tonk Man! I saw him at Target on a trip to South Dakota last summer. I passed him up and never saw him again. Damn!

Flashback Edge. Saw it at Target, put it back though thinking maybe another day, went back three days later and it was gone. That's my only real "one that got away".

DM Macho Man, Elite 13 King Sheamus, Basic 5 Hurricane, Basic 5 Mike Knox and 2-Pack Series 4 Christian and Tommy Dreamer. I didn't care about the Christian but I was tempted to get it just for the Dreamer, I passed thinking that they might make an Elite Tommy Dreamer (I didn't know he got released) but about 3 or 4 days later I heard that he was released and rushed to the shop to see if it was still there. It wasn't, and I never saw the figure again

The first Uso 2 pack. I saw it at Walmart, it was the only two pack on the peg but I had no money at the time. I still regret it, especially seeing prices for them now. But now I try not to go out without money. same here I wish I had went back to get it

E9 Luke Gallows. I bought it when it first came out, but sold it when I moved. Elite 9 then got a CRAZY shipment at what would become my local Walmart - and I mean crazy, like 10 cases. Needless to say, E9 was a mainstay for a LOOOOOOONG time. By mainstay I mean no other Elites ever showed up there until about a month ago when they got Wrestlemania XXX and E26, of which one figure still has yet to sell besides Warrior. About 6 months ago I bought the last two MVPs, leaving 2 Gallows, 6 Kofis, and like 14 Ortons. Every time I passed the toy aisle I could rest easy knowing that E9 would still be there. I really started contemplating buying the Gallows again, easily one of the best Elite figs ever released, but I could never really rationalize it. I never saw myself displaying it, but I still couldn't shake the feeling that I wanted it. Every time it was "maybe next time". One terrible black day I go to the toy aisle. Lo and behold, all of the rest of E9 had vanished. I searched high and low like a crazy person, thinking "there's no way they're gone. Even if someone bought them up, there would still be Ortons." Nope. Every time I go, I check. No avail. It was the worst day of my life and I have had night terrors and broken down into hysterical crying fits ever since. Best part, that very Walmart got like 10 cases of Wrestlemania XXX Shawn and Bret that I will probably have the exact same moment with in another 5 years. Why is my Walmart so back assward?
BTW I was lying about the night terrors, crying, and worst day of my life parts, but I AM actually very upset, and the rest is all true.

E12 (Flashback) Kane is mine. I only ever saw him once at retail.. it was Target... I didn't have the money and my girlfriend talked me into waiting. HUGE mistake! That's one of my most wanted and most expensive figures... even loose that figure is a wallet ripper. One day I hope to find it at a decent price... hell, I'd even take it loose as long as it was in mint condition.

On eBay not too long ago, someone had e13 flashback edge and e20 flashback Christian, both mint, complete but loose for $60 buy it now. Had it in my cart.... Held off for a day, it was gone when I woke up. Soooooo bummed.... Because now I can't find e13 edge complete and mint less than $60 by itself I saw an e13 Edge on the bay today for 40, I've got one i'd never part with, if the bids aren't up to high on it by the last day or two i'll probably snag it to have an extra one on card.

It will not end that low. And the one that's showing $40 was showing $35 yesterday. So the seller is already upping the starting bid, no bids yet because it's a 6 day auction and the smart people bid in the last 2 minutes
