I'd love to get this figure but I don't have a Target anywhere near me and I don't want to pay secondary market prices. I feel the same way about Walmart exclusives though at my store it's just a general problem of them never ordering anything and the toy DM not wanting to stock things in that particular aisle unless she absolutely has to.

The current climate of "stores want exclusives that they still won't order" is making this whole situation worse than it has to be. Give ringside cases of these so they'll actually reach collectors since they are "collector's editions".

Have been looking forward to this figure since its announcement. Giving RSC the exclusives online like they did with Wolfe was amazing. I wish that could continue. I wouldn't even mind paying a premium for it just to save the gas and my sanity.

I'm stoked to get this figure as well. Aaaand pay $40 for it, as I'll never find it in a store, lol.

Wish they included her right elbow pad in the same print as the outfit (like her kneepads are). She wore it in every match I've seen with that particular outfit, and in most of her promo pics too.  Even the old LJN eraser had the elbow pad!  Good catch! That's interesting too cause that image is reversed and it seems like all images from that particular photo shoot are reversed for some reason. But she always wore the single elbow pad on her left or no elbow pads at all. I guess the sculptors of the eraser used that as reference. |

Wait... someone is actually excited for this figure? It was going to be the only reason I was going to get suckered into buying that three pack. As a classic collector, she ticks the right boxes: Rock n' Wrestling era, Rock n' Wrestling cartoon, Wrestlemania star... and her beating Moolah was a huge deal "in myyy day" lol. Been wanting to get her since she was announced, thanks to Mattel for finally getting her out there! |

I've seen everyone from the first Network Spotlight series (except Rey... but El Paso is big on luchadores) more than once, so I'm hopeful. Then again, I never found the Aleister Black NXT series or Ohno, Paige or Liv Morgan. I did find a Dunne by pure blind luck. Here's hoping anyway! Looking forward to Rumble Macho King, too. |

Aren't these four-figure sets 2 per case each by default? My local Targets are loaded with the current NS series. Hopefully this set is as heavily distributed.

I’m pretty sure they shortpacked Trish HOF and the George Steele HOF figures. Not sure about any others except Race in FB 3 and then Curtis Axel in the old BAF sets |

Not sure about any others except Race in FB 3 and then Curtis Axel in the old BAF sets Those were all before my time besides Harley. I would see some random HOF Piper, Steele, etc when I first started figure hunting, but not enough to know or realize what would be in a case. If they were ever going to short-pack a figure I think Richter would be a good choice, so we’ll see. |
