Mattel WWE NXT TakeOver Elite Series 4 (& 5) MEGATHREAD!

finally pulling the trigger and heading out to the target my old friend works at (about an hour away)
he said they get decent amount of stock especially for toys each day so i’ll check next week. I don’t want to bother him to hold them or anything but he said he’ll keep an eye out, wish me luck bois.

Uh oh.

The figs are still showing for me on the app, my mobile browser and my desktop browser.

The figs aren't showing up when searching for them using the Target search feature but did they ever? Not sure if I ever remember them showing up in the search results.

One employee asked me (yes, he asked me) “What’s a DCPI?” when I asked if he had any NXT 4 in the back.

Just got off the phone. What a lovely hour of my life.


First guy says to call another number and they'll "prioritize my address" so that the next Black in stock comes to me because I have it back ordered.


Called that number , first dude tells me he understands and had to call some other number. I sat on hold for 30 ing minutes and had to hang up. Something sketchy was up


I then called back and explained what happened and this other woman said that she knew of no number that anyone would've called to check the status, basically either telling me the guy before me lied and sat there and twiddled his thumbs with me on hold like a moron for 30 mins, or the lady was clueless and lying. At this point I had to go SJW and ask for the manager. She refused like 4 times until I got really aggressive.


I then waited 15 more minutes for a manager. He filed a case for me and noted himself how hot the item was, and wondered himself where they were getting these from and why so little at a time. So he said he was gonna try to get that taken care of, as well as make sure my order actually comes the next time they get any in stock.


But of course these are exactly the things a supervisor is supposed to say. So I basically got nowhere.

Also I'm sick of seeing people saying "you just gotta go hunting bruh". Luckily for you, you don't live in an area a few miles outside one of the most major cities in the world. Lucky for you, your stores haven't been sitting on the same case of NXT 2-3 that will not move for months now. Lucky for you, scalper Mania isn't running wild and people aren't camping out front of your stores when the ing popfindr goes up.

I honestly wish popfindr stops showing the Quantity soon just like Brickseek did.

Don't rub it in, don't show pictures of your 10 Drews Dunnes and Blacks just to make those that don't have them yet feel like $hit. Enjoy them, post IG pics , resell them for 4x what you paid on the bay, whatever.

Just please either help us real collectors get these for a decent deal or stop the toxicity. It really ing sucks when you're having the luck that someone like me and quite a few others here are having. And sucks even more to see people actively trying to make those who don't have them yet feel lesser than them.

Welp, we’ve got another one.

And yes, I have ALL of those things at my local Target. So stop crying.

man this thread went downhill fast.

seriously though, anyone who's gone through this thread should have an understanding of two things. 1. a LOT of people want these figures for various reasons. and 2. posting pictures of your multiples of each, or talking about how you've found a bunch and are basically going to flip them for cash is just sh*tty. i dont care if thats "murica" or "you put in the work". there's no real need to do it. (in response to others being too salty or sensitive about it is a different story. everything in context)

on topic, at this point im perfectly content with waiting for the 2nd Elites of both Black and Drew....you guys really think these are going to be the only ones? people were pretty pumped about the first elite Roode in the NXT wave, where it was selling for a good price above cost if you could find it, and a few months later his EG was announced.

There's going to be MORE Elite Drew McIntyre's ffs. And Black too. I think everyone is just getting caught in this ridiculous hype and letting the whole "i want it NOW!" thing take over your life.
