I actually bought a DM Undertaker over it when the Cartwheel deal was going on. I just can't pull the trigger on it. It's a cool attire from when he tagged with my second (maybe third depending on how many Roddy matches I've watched recently) favorite wrestler of all time, but I just can seem to pick them up. I think the similarities to previous figs is what gets me. The DM is basically Wembley Warrior with glasses and Macho is Macho King with less paint apps and a shirt. I love those two guys, but I gotta agree, these will be in clearance bins for a while.

No elite 32 & 38 Daniel Bryan is. His bandwagon popularity didn't translate well in figure sells till this day.

Definitely not. Yet. It's overstocked in a few stores in the US. I've seen a stack at Smyths disappear in a week or so, restocked and sold through again. I've seen the same in toys r us. If you asked me to go out and buy 5 today I'm not sure I could. If you asked me to out and buy 10 Sandows from the Bearer set I could, and that's been sat for almost 2 years now. Also hamleys still has Elite 32. The Warrior DM has only been out for a few months and I've read some people haven't seen it in their stores full stop. If it's still there in a year or more then ask again.

With smudged face paint and a yellow ic title added, that would be the ULTIMATE Defining Moments figure

Is this the most done topic of all time on any figure...
38 Elite 28 Big Shows still on the Toy Store, Dubai Mall. Don't mean poop.

is this figure the biggest shelf warmer OF ALL TIME I think the award should go to E39 Damien Mizdow - you could go to practically any Smyths or TRU here and still pick him up (Smyths have discounted him TWICE and he's still not selling). Sid from the same series is up there, but he was packed 2 per-box - so isn't quite as bad. With smudged face paint and a yellow ic title added, that would be the ULTIMATE Defining Moments figure ...that would have been such a cool figure - really wish they'd done that and put the UM Warrior in the same series as the UM Macho instead...

I dont think its the biggest shelf warmer, but maybe too over produced.
Ive seen them a ton of places, then they all disspear. Probably not the best attirr for a dm.
I still say the biggest shelfwarmer is tito. They are not budging at all. Maybe the first elite broud clay too. I still see that randomly.

I'm not sure that it is even the most shelf warming Warrior of all time. I still walk into stores that have dozens of elite 26 Warrior.

I honestly think it's a good figure. I would have made it a regular elite, not a DM but it's still a good figure.

Maybe its because he got fired before the match that was the reason for the formation of the Ultimate Maniacs. No one loves weird, obscure figures more than me, but the fact that this was released as a DM is almost offensive.

Tito Santana and the Horsemen almost killed the HOF line. They get my vote.
