Quick question - Has Goldberg had an Elite? Cheers, Nev Only the one that comes with the Raw ring unfortunately :[ That’s disappointing. My life wouldn’t be worth living if I brought one of those home! Cheers, Nev

Bought Summerslam Matt Hardy. The interchangeable hands are awesome. Elites seem to be warming really bad in my local Smyths.

Entertainer had Elite 51 in so I grabbed the only Scott Hall there for £10. Saw the set in B&M the other day but they only had Zayn, AJ and Mankind.

Battlepacks 53 were in Smyths Bolton. Considered Carmella and Ellsworth but didn’t need Ellsworth. They also had two of each of the Summerslam Basics, but no Angles unfortunately. Would have got Shane but the paint was bad on both

I think thats the case in most places mate The market is certainly slow...makes you wonder how some of the eBay resellers and the like try and make a living. Thing is toy prices are insane, us collectors baulk at £20 odd elites...I can't imagine many average parents buying them for their kids at that price. We also have to remember that in the UK the WWE is effectively behind a paywall...you either have a network subscription or a Sky one.

Cheers, Nev Your best bet is probably to get just the Goldberg figure from eBay (UK or US). There's quite a few that come on, so you should be able to get one for under £40 (I managed to get one from the UK for £36 and another from the US for £37 total). Having said that though, I'd probably wait until after the SDCC first... hopefully a new Goldberg figure will be shown(!).

NXT Elites are down to £9.99 in Argos, I thought it would be a nice touch if I finally found Ember and Bobby while the promotion was on...
But alas, two stores, a total of 8 in stock across the two, 5 Nakamuras, 2 Asuka’s, 1 Dawson (ironically I still need Dash)

Would love to get my hands on a Roode or Nakamura for that price.

Got the gold Elite Rollins today, lovely figure. Amazing details compared to the rubber figures I had as a kid!
Cheers, Nev

I think jason jordan could warm real bad cause of the deal with his bud gable. The fact that he's off TV at the moment doesn't help. Kids only seem to know wrestlers who are on TV right now. The elite 53 Jericho warmed because of that too.

Hate it when they take it out on the customer for working in the weirdest shop on the planet I try to avoid Argos as much as I can. The wife loves it, but I find the staff are rude. I used to work in retail in my early 20s, and I know it can be rough, but to take their frustrations out on their customers is just shameful. Cheers, Nev

I went to Argos last week with hopes of picking up a NXT Roode. Anyway after the whole "Can I view the figures your Grace?" and I'm left to wait for 14 mins (I timed it on my phone). My order was first yet they served around 6 other people before me. Apparently a mini fridge is more important than a wrestling figure. After the 14 mins I tell them "I been here for a while". So then they bring out a NXT Asuka. I ask "Can I view the other figures?" They respond smugly "Sorry, not enough time for that".
