Wait, there is already a “picture“?! Thanks! Definitely looks like Strowman upper body. Lower body could be either Ambrose or Strowman with new lower legs. Just like Ambrose and Cena share the upper part of the lower body...

I know people are probably going to hate the whole Goldust have knee pads and whatnot but I sort of love the touch. It was one of those things that Hasbro did. Mix and match body parts to put a figure together. Well, I mean, Goldust wore kneepads in this time. Underneath the attire, sure, but he still wore them. So it's attire correct. Who knew. Thanks.

I posted this in the UK findings board, but I thought some others might find this interesting too.
We have a discount store here in the UK called Home Bargains and yesterday they had a ton of series 3 retro figures and I mean a ton. There had to have been at least 10 of each of the four guys. What is interesting about this is that here in the UK, people had a really tough time finding this series when it first came out. I wonder if Mattel had a ton of series 3 in their UK warehouses, but it was the stores that said they did not want them and that is why they have ended up at Home Bargains.
Home Bargains have sold WWE stuff for years, but I have never seen this much of one series before.

When they cleared them out all they did was just restock with more of Series 3. Now they are almost out of them again with the Christmas rush. But now with Series 3, 4 and 5 popping up at the Five Below discount stores, I'm not even waiting out for Target anymore if I can get them at half the price now.

I have the smallest bit of hope that series 4 and 5 might show up here in the UK at a discount store Has the discount stores in the USA that have gotten them in had all the figures in each set? I only wanted Flair and Savage, but I am sure that is the case for most folks into this line.

It looks like others have found all of the figures in Series 4 and 5 at the other ones in diff. states. I'm hoping they will show up soon around here too if they restock since they are going fast.

I don't know if its been brought here yet but Zack Ryder said on his podcast Mattel are done with the stands that come with the retros. That's great news and should bring the price back down to $9.99.

I have the smallest bit of hope that series 4 and 5 might show up here in the UK at a discount store I wouldn't hold out too much hope... I'm pretty sure stores like Home Bargains buy in remaining/overstocked figures from larger retail stores - and Series 4 and 5 have never been available here. Still, stranger things have happened! I don't know if its been brought here yet but Zack Ryder said on his podcast Mattel are done with the stands that come with the retros. That's great news and should bring the price back down to $9.99. ...or it could mean that due to rising costs, they've had to ditch the stands in order to keep the figures at the same price-point...

Home and bargains now have series 3 for £4.99 each

GET THE PITCHFORKS! WE ARE STORMING MATTEL’S HEADQUARRERS!!!So because I have been sick for the last couple days (and my wife says I have to many things to wrap) she gave me a few things today. One of which was my retro Balor and this is what I was greeted with when I opened it!!! This is unacceptable!!!! Seriously though it sucks that it’s not glued together, but it’s a simple enough fix. Although I think it’s actually a nice thing for customizing as it’s no fuss torso splitting. lol

I love this line so much and I don’t even really collect figures that much. Maybe because I’m not as invested in collecting as most of you, the issues brought up in this thread aren’t big issues to me. I hope Mattel releases tons more series because I’ve only picked up a couple so far with the crappy Canadian distribution but I hope to be able to grab more.
