I SAID-UH ... ARE ... YOU ... REEAADDYYY !?!?! . . . . . . . Then ... for the thousands on this board ... and the millions trying to buy up all the stock to flip for cash instead of actually having a job .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Luuuuuuuulllllllllllllleeetttsss GET READY-TA SUUCCKKKK ITTTTTTTTTT !!  Huge thanks to Nikk, for helping me out in getting this awesome set. I only collect to enjoy it, I don’t care what they go for on the secondary market. I’m thankful to have a small circle that helps each other out like collectors should. I don’t have a TRU anywhere near me within an hour or so drive from my house, so their store exclusives were pretty hard to come by for me. However, with this set just hitting store shelves at the same time TRU is entering it’s final days ... it’s sadly become almost impossible for those that really want these to get lucky and find them in the wild. The ones that are in the know or have someone at the store grab these for them ... are almost always are the ones that only want them to flip for a profit 🙄 I also got the Walgreens Triple H, that not a single store anywhere near me stocked, so I was glad to finally add it to the collection as well. Shout out to the true collectors on this board that help out fellow colectors, it’s good to know that there are still some of us left 🤘🏻 Thanks for looking and I hope that everyone has an awesome day ! |

That’s what this board is really about right here, helping out one another. I was able to grab the Big Show off the bay for pretty cheap and I gotta aay, it’s one of his best figures

That's really cool!
I've still had no luck finding these figures.

A scalper stole my chance at these.
A whole case was reported at a nearby store with a pic to prove it and less than one hour later all were gone. The rest of the section was still untouched compared with the pic. Those figures are being sold on the secondary market for between $40-$60 by a member here with same eBay user name who typically only posts in my states findings board.

Those figures are being sold on the secondary market for between $40-$60 by a member here with same eBay user name who typically only posts in my states findings board. This is exactly what I hate to read 😡 ... Scalpers are the lowest of the low, imho. I’ve never made any $$ by selling someone something on this board, that was currently available at retail. All I’ve ever asked is cost + the actual shipping. I have numerous members that will attest to this. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with making some extra for your time and expenses and all that, but I’d much rather help out a fellow collector than for someone to do what happened here and basically all but take away the chance of anyone else finding what they’ve been searching for. I get it, supply and demand ... but we’re all collectors in a very niche hobby. Kids look forwars to these as gifts or rewards and when some assclown takes that away from them just to make some money, that pisses me off to no end. My 2 local Walmarts get hit by the same scalper nerd all of the freakin’ time ... it’s pathetic. The lady that is over the toys dept at one of them actually knows who he is and she purposely puts out partial stock at random times and never fully fills the pegs because of it. I’m thinking that’s why I only seen Hardy/Tye//Rollins the other day and not the rest of the others, because surely the Hardy would've been the first ones gone over them all. I’ll shoot you a pm and see if I can help you get what you’re looking for, brother 👊🏻 |

Nice gets. I've only seen Henry and Show on the shelves, wasn't out for them so I passed. Never saw Heenan and HHH, bit the bullet and took the pain on Evil. Not as bad as it could have been but bad enough.
