So June 9th, I was primed for a toy hunt, but my tire goes flat moments after I start driving. Ended up costing nearly $100. I was so bummed as my disposable income went to $0 because priorities lol. June 10th, it's my 33rd, my parents gave me $100. I go out for a 5K race, then went to Big Lots. They had a full case of E43, but only picked up Del Rio. Then went to Toys R Us. Elites are still stuck on E41 (none of the good ones), but they had a fresh case of basics 72 and basics are $8 atm. Picked up Nia Jax and Shinsake Nakamura. These are great figures. Imo, black pants with the red shirt looks better than the DM Elite.   |

Nice grabs. I keep missing that Nakamura. I have seen everyone else from that case multiple times.

Nice. I cannot find b72. Too much of b66 and the last few sets.
Want Ryder and Shinsuke & Jax of course....

Only $100 for the flat, consider yourself lucky....
Quick story.
I took my family on a Disney vacation last December and at the time my wife's Audi station wagon had a slow leaky tire (we flew to Florida). My dog was put in a kennel and when we landed back in the northeast I had to rush to get my dog before the kennel was closed or they would charge an extra $40. My wife's car being the dog car, I got in and rushed out not remembering her tire would be flat and 5 miles later the rubber goes flying off and I'm stranded roadside with a dead phone battery and it's 18 degrees with no functional spare tire. I walked home nearly frozen and had to drive back to the car to get the wheel off to get it fixed. It was $175 for the one tire plus the $40 extra for my dog. I used to have a sports car and it was $1000 for four tires when I replaced them.
Lucky you got the cash right back. Happy birthday!

Just figure I would mention this, but if you have a Discount Tire near you they fix flats for free as long as the hole isn't on the sidewall.

Damn dude, if you don't mind me asking, what u do for a living to drive a sports car with tires that cost $1000 all the way around?? $250 per tire Let's just say I live in a state where the income level is quite high and I help manage my family's successful business. I make just a little on the high side of average salary. Oh and also...never buy a sports car |

Using the extra DM shirt on the basic nakamura was a great idea & really looks great too!

And the tire that got flat had about 4k miles on it. Then 3 days later same tire gets another puncture in the side wall. They took care of me that time, because they felt bad. Lol. |

I love the red pants Nakamura with the black jacket more. I can't wait till they make an Elite version with his red pants and red kickpads like he had in NJPW.

Oh and also...never buy a sports car My family has a successful business as well, but i went to college for Bachelors in Elementry Education and became a teacher. Family restaurant isn't exactly what I imagined for myself as a career lol. Still, I come back to help my parents during the summer. I live in a state where a lot of ppl move to because cost of living is cheaped compared to coastal states. I only complaint about the tire because it was a cheap used car and I hate putting money towards responsibilities, especially when my mindset was on fun hunting adventures lol. Thanks for the birthday greeting. |
