What the hell is going on with Drews neck/head? He reminds me of the big dude from little monsters lol. They left that piece of neck flesh between the jaw and below the ear. Many of us cut it off and it looks much better.

it , I tapped out and got a Drew on eBay for $40. Just $40? That'd be a steal for me.

There are a lot of Drews on there for around that $40 mark. A couple for $45 shipped and some others around there that are taking offers. His price has been steadily going down. I think Black debuting on the main roster has kept his value higher than the others though.

ill say for the record i have zero issues with Ryder and his collection and/or what he gets from Mattel. he's more famous than i'll ever be in life...whatever it is what it is.
i just disagree with his point that its "fun" to be unable to find a figure of a guy you want for a long time and then if you happen to get lucky and find it thats "awesome". i used to get really excited when i found the Jakks 1/500s at retail, thats because those were actual chase figures, limited to 500 and worth more than a normal RA. i get excited if i happen to see a chase sticker on a POP figure at a store
i shouldnt have to drive to 15 targets a day to hunt down a normal drew mcintyre elite that the look is based off his NXT run, and then get "excited" that i found it.

and also on the topic of "store exclusives"....again, these shouldnt be limited to 1 per case per store. if these retailers really wanted this whole exclusive crapthing, they should be doing what Walgreens, etc. have done and get FULL CASES of these guys. There should be a damn peg for Pete Dunne at Target in the WWE section. thats how every other store exclusive has been

It’s one thing to go to a store with knowledge they have/had a shipment of new figures and not find what you want, but it’s another thing when you know your stores have yet to even get them. Of 8 Target’s that show on Popfindr for my area of PA, I don’t think any have got new NXT stock. Maybe 1 did, but I’m not 100% sure. Some of them have been showing the same 2-4 qty for weeks. I don’t care who’s fault it is, but that’s a lot of stores within 1 area to not be getting the new stock at all.

The way they did the Rocky Maivia was a great way to do a Target exclusive.

I'm just happy I was mentioned in the time line. Might be my only contribution to this forum, but I'll take it 🤷♂️

Wow. That looks really great. Hilarious how the fans get these things more on the money than the team who makes them. Plus it’s not like this was a super crazy swap. They had this mold to begin with. Totally should have used it imo.

Live in a major metro area that has 15 Targets inside of a 20 mile radius. Only 1 of the Targets received these and they have been shipped 3 cases in the last 10 days. So, 1 store has received 24. The other 14 have received a combined 0. So... that one Target we mentioned that got 3 cases. It got case number 4 today. Now on case 6. The other Targets? Still a combined Z E R O.
