Great! Should see more sets of BAFs on eBay at a bazillion dollars, or worst, on RSC at a significant mark up to "help" our international friends. They dont need help! Theyve had it for 2 years almost! Good point, I retract my statement. That aside, I went to a local Wal-Mart and asked if they would be getting the BAFs in soon. He's reply, "I don't have enough for you?!" LOL, the Wal-Mart stores I've been to are littered with old figures. However, they still managed to bet Royal Rumble Cubes up (be it 2 weeks ago) with E39, Ballas, and Balor set. Do you know how Wal-Mart distribution works? They are in the process of doing resets, but no Now, Then, Forever tags, no DM Austin tags, etc...

More people having these means there will be a race to the bottom in pricing these. Look at the Heenan set. People alresdy offering Andre and Perfect for as low as $15 with free shipping. Some guy has Boss Man MOC for $31 with free shipping from Cali; basically losing money after fees. By this time next week, Bearer will be readily available on ebay for $40 or less. Bank on it. Still see Heenan set sell for a significant value. You can cite Andre's second hand loose value, but it's a skewed argument considering you cannot say the same for the others. That said, I know that once these figures start hitting retail in full force the secondary market should level out. $40 or less is debatable, but I glad you are optimistic. Someone needs to be LOL. Between you and me, I don't make a habit of buying figures on eBay without them being nearly retail with free shipping, unless it was a figure I missed out on. IE: Charlotte.

Between you and me, I don't make a habit of buying figures on eBay without them being nearly retail with free shipping, unless it was a figure I missed out on. IE: Charlotte. Give it a couple of weeks. Right now, there are a couple people on eBay who are undercutting everyone else. At this rate, even Heenan will be in the $25 range with free shipping soon, which isn't awful if you're not interested in the full set. Bearer was going for close to $80 within the last week. Now $60 seems to be the new "set" price. A ton of people probably took advantage of the set being available online, so I'd put money on Bearer being down to $40 very soon. There seems to be an upswing in people selling the newest releases on eBay, and there's some rampant undercutting going on. Excellent news for collectors who can't find in stores; kind of pointless for the sellers, who I assume are oblivious to eBay/PayPal fees. I mean, look no further than Boss Man. Hitting stores in the last day or two, and the race to the bottom on eBay is already nearly complete. As of this post, I see one guy selling MOC Boss Man figures for $32 with free shipping from the West Coast. Unless he stole the figures or had a ton of Reward coupons, there's no way he's not actually losing money once you factor in fees, shipping, and retail cost. TL;DR We seem to be in a time where the majority of new WWE Mattel figures are barely going for above retail on the secondary market. Quite a time to be alive for collectors.

Could anyone tell which part comes with each figure? I see Rusev comes with the torso.

I want this figure but there's no way I'm buying 4 basics just to have it. I'll just continue to be patient like I have been all this time and just wait until he is included in a battlepack with undertaker.

I already have Bearer so I just want the Jericho. Sucks that I missed him on their site. And I was checking their site every morning.
