When was the last time anyone has seen series 1 in stores? I haven't seen any of those around since series 2 came out.

At this stage I believe Ringside is the best route for Retros. Less stress. Quickest release. One bit of good news for in store hunters, Series 6 was spotted at Target in MA yesterday. Agree 100% Ringside shipped series 4, 5 and 6 months ago. And they still haven't shown up anywhere around here at retail.

Does anyone know if Enzo figures were actually produced for series 4, before being replaced by a KO repaint? Or is the proto all that exists? Would be kinda funny to see that figure become this line’s “R&B Greg Valentine”.
It did look pretty sweet, though. Should’ve just released it.

Wasn't there also a #2 Warrior jumper and a Ryback that nearly saw the light of day? There was even a time when we were told of a Rock #2 and Cena #2 (repaints)

I'm actively checking for that Enzo to pop up. I want it.

Trying to find the Macho Man retro figure. How long since it came out? My wal-mart used to be great for these but now that I actually want one (only collect Macho) they have zero on the shelves.

You're not gonna find these at Wal-Mart. They have pretty much stopped carrying the Retro line. Your best bet is Target.

Lol I want to know who had the bright idea to split the first series into two waves. If not for that, I think everything would have run a lot more smoothly.

Or at least they could have packed less cenas and lesnars in those later cases. But idealy, if they were doing 6 per wave, they should have been in cases of 12 (2 of each guy).

I feel like they were trying to be cute coming out of the gate...like, "Hey! Go store to store and try to collect us all just like the Hasbros!"

And yeah, Cass is surely scrapped as well at this point.

Finally found Series 4 for the first time. No Flair though damnit. At least I know they actually exist!

Target has S4 on their website VERY briefly... They had the pics for Sami & Flair switched. I took a chance and ordered a Flair-description (with Sami pic), and the Sami-description-with-Flair-pic sold out fairly quickly. I got Flair! The Flair & Devitt sold out not long after I'd ordered, and Owens is all that's left.
I can't imagine how many people ordered the Sami fig because it had the Flair pic.

Asked him exactly this on Twitter, he said he has Zero interest in the Mattell Retro Enzo figure. So let's hope the 2 somehow get taken and stored away in an attic, so we can bid for them in 30 years.

This isn't like Greg Valentine when we all stared at those ads as kids.

Happy to report that I checked my local Kmart and they had about 2 full sets of Series 6!
