I bought a general release WWE case of 12 from Amazon when they had gone down to $45. I received it yesterday. Not only had the case been opened and taped back up, but also all four blind boxes had been opened and taped back up. Here's what I got: 01. Nakamura (1/12 red pants) 02. Nakamura (1/24 black pants) 03. Sting (1/24) 04. Undertaker (1/12) 05. Reigns (1/6) 06. Savage (1/12 purple trunks) 07. Balor (1/12 red) 08. Styles (1/12) 09 (blind box). Cena (1/6) 10 (blind box). Cena (1/6) 11 (blind box). Lesnar (1/6) 12 (blind box). Lesnar (1/6) None of them have the build-a-ring pieces. You sending it back? That's pretty bogus everything was opened. That was my fear when I saw those cases for sale. It's too easy for someone to order and return them and for Amazon to just sell them to the next person. |

Nah, I could do a LOT worse than both 1/24s, all 5 1/12s and just two set of doubles. When I saw that the case had been opened, I was expecting the worst (which would be 4 X Lesnar, 4 X Reigns & 4 X Cena). |

One of the TLS chaps posted a photo of some of the new figures in packaging mockups. Looks like we're getting multiples of almost everyone.
Hogan in red bandana / yellow shirt or yellow bandana / no shirt
Flair in red, blue, or purple
Rock modern with shaved head and tribal tat or throwback with flat top and sideburns
Andre in singlet or vest / trunks
Ronda
Stone Cold
No word on odds or exclusivity yet though. I'd wager they'll split the colors between store cases though. Probably some for Walmart or Target and then general release.

Nice! I was disappointed Rock wasn't an AE version. That's great news.

Very nice good too see those horror ones too. Also saw they have a big trouble in little china set coming out too. Figures after I told the wife I'd be scaling back on collecting.....

Red Flair doesn't come with a Robe??? Probably not. They probably wanted a variant in just trunks. |

Ugh... I like Hogan with shirt and Flair with robe a ton better than the other versions. Hopefully Flair in red is rare and one of the two robe figures is the 1/6. The purple is my favorite so I’m hoping that’s the base. But old Jack Burton?! Have to have it. Plus David, ESH, and Lydia. EDIT: I guess I just full-blown collect these now. I pre-ordered Beetlejuice, David, Lydia, Buffy, Angel, Spike and Jack Burton last night. I picked up Ripley from Aliens this morning at Walmart. So yeah...  |

FLAIR, HOGAN, ANDRE all back up for pre order on spam. Just ordered those 3 and the 3 big trouble in little china figures. Debating on horror but those always seem to show up in stores at least. On the fence about uncle Rico from napoleon dynamite but I know I'll eventually order him too.

I'll get Napoleon and Uncle Rico on those haha. I ended buying the 6 base Ghostobusters figures on ebay last night. So I can't wait for those. I also grabbed Street Fighter Guile from eBay.
Does anyone know of any kind of display shelving for these? Something with like a 4x4 cut? I want to get these displayed. I only have Warrior, Sting, and Macho up in my office right now, and that's simply not enough.

I did find clear ultra pro cases on the bay that it these perfect though. The card is the exact size as the case to so it makes a nice display piece. Maybe check those out |

I know there was some speculation, but Piper is a real thing. A guy on Facebook got one in his ding and dent box and posted the picture yesterday. So fingers crossed those Target boxes end up getting put out here soon.

Surely that means a decent amount will pop up. I think that black shirt version was 1/96. I’m just settling on the L right now on that one but good luck. It’s bound to show up eventually. |

So a guy on the LS Facebook group got cases of the Piper boxes on Wednesday and I ordered one. Came with 2 of everyone, so Brock in the red/black, Cena in red, Piper, and Reigns in blue. They came today and getting the Piper made the collection I’ve put together of these really worth it. I might actually try and get the 1/96 now because I love this thing so much. The guy’s name was Figure Freak and he’s on eBay. He’s apparently getting more boxes at the end of the month. So check on eBay now for people who got the cases and are selling extras or keep an eye on his eBay over the next week or two if you’re desperate for Piper.   |

Would u mind posting some pics of the other figures in there besides piper? I dont recall seeing that version of cena before so I'm curious what other alternate attires may be there. Thanks |
