Well, as some of you may have seen...he was on ebay. The seller claimed he got one early from a friend...I asked him if he'd get anymore but he said that was the only one he had. The auction went off a little over 100 bucks (a bit too rich for my blood, though I was tempted when it was at 50 bucks to have in time for Christmas)
That being said, do you guys think the DM Hogan will be out sooner than later? Maybe he will be out in time for the holidays as opposed to January?

It's a sign that we'll probably see them at retail in February. Just my guess. Congrats on the guy who wants to pay 75 or more over retail just to say "Neener-neener, I got it early".

Yeah I know, right? I mean, realistically that's what I wanted most for Christmas this year...but I'd never ask someone to lay that kind of cash down, especially when it'll be readily available in a few weeks.
I'm hoping That similarly to flair, perhaps other places might have them before rsc

Look at that seller's completed listings. You'll find a rare item that sold for over $2000 bucks. I wonder if it's legit or fake though.

I'll be getting Hogan definitely - mainly for the belt if I'm honest - Will be used as the TV title, closest we're going to get to it I think.

Crazy how close we were to actually getting that figure at retail. That's a crazy price though. Legit or not, I wonder if he got paid on it.

i have trouble understanding people who "need" a figure, which will be at mass retail, so badly they are willing to fork over 4x the sales price. it is mind numbing to me. happy for whomever wants to burn that extra money, but i just don't get it. i'm old. maybe that has something to do with it.

Mainly because of its rarity and the fact it's elite series 1. I can see that figure being worth a fortune later on.

It's legit but he didn't sell it. There were a crap ton of fake bids and then he ended the listing and last I saw it was sitting on Amazon for sale at like 11,000 hahahaha

Until he signs with wwe n they rerelease it I think even if he returns, which seems like a fairly reasonable possibility, we'll get a different look/figure for him. It'll drive the value of that E1 figure down some to have other figures of him, but I still think having that thing MOC is easily the rocket firing Boba Fett of the Mattel WWE line.

I was all ready to pull the trigger on this but then noticed the $5 shipping charge. Talk about a deal breaker!

Either way I hope he does. If mattel could do a glow in the dark one like the jakks one id love it.

I wouldn't have thought a year ago we would have Flair, Hogan, Sting and Razor...especially so soon.
I'd never say never about jeff hardy, especially with TNA swirling the drain. Hopefully one day we'll have every big wrestling name imaginable, even the ones once thought impossible.

And back on topic with hulk...Damn rsc and their prototype pic videos. I saw an insider video and immediately thought he was in stock, or at least was coming soon.

I was thinking this earlier. Even if he came back, I doubt this exact figure would be rereleased. The fact that it is MOC and the unreleased figure in the very first elite set, makes this thing a treasure. Especially when you consider who it is and the amount that exist in the world.
