I’d have thought the ultimate edition figures would be slow movers considering they are relatively expensive as they are considered top of the range figures from mattel. But it seems like they are selling like hot cakes. A week back ringside got back the ultimate warrior ultimate edition I think they priced it at around $70 not sure if it was an error but within days it’s gone from the site again. I see Bret Hart ultimate edition has sold out again online. And there’s still not sign of a John Cena Ultimate edition restock online. Next to sell again should be Triple H.

Grab series 4 and Becky while u can. They won't be hitting retail(pretty sure) and once they are gone from RSC they will shoot up quickly like the rest of them. Brock was already pricey before the restock.

The ones I have (Ronda, Nakamura, Bret, HHH, HBK, Lesnar, Cena) are all great figures. Hopefully this line continues.

It’s funny how it’s turning out. I remember when they first came out people knocked them and they were somewhat slow to move at shelves. Now we don’t even know what will make it to retail and everyone’s racing to get them before the online stocks are permenantly sold out. Great series that I’ve always dug from the beginning. I just hope that with or without retail release that the line keeps going

The line got off to a shaky start but I think with figures that will be massively in demand (fiend, Hogan, edge etc) then the line should be able to go from strength to strength. Still not a fan of the torso but for a customiser like myself the extra heads, arms etc is great.

This line got me back into collecting wrestling figures again. I really, really like only having two figures per series. It sucks that distribution nose dived. I mean I buy a majority of my figures online anyways, but online shopping isn’t always a guarantee. With The Rock and Charlotte being exclusives, I’m getting mixed feelings on how easy it will be to collect these. I have relatively short list of characters I’d like to see in this form.

I can't imagine recent demand skyrocketed this much, just due to character choice on its own. Especially if LESS retailers have these available now than before.

Are they making less of the later waves? I recall Warrior, Bret, Nakamura and Ronda warming the pegs at Target before the pandemic.

I have to think that the HBK/Brock wave has a lower run if no brick and mortar retailers picked it up. I'm assuming Rock/Charlotte will be low as well, and then probably jump back up for Fiend/Hogan once they return to retail. |

I snagged HBK off Ringside when he popped up last week and got him in 3 days (nice). Still haven't seen that wave at retail.
Looking for Cena, but not sure he will pop up anytime soon either.
Preordered Rock already and will be looking for Hogan.

I have all but Balor (not buying) & Cena (will buy). I really like these figures. Some problems here and there but nothing major. Hope they come out with more.

Brock was already pricey before the restock. I thought they just weren’t hitting retail here in the UK... is it the same case in the US too then? |

Ive seen pretty much all of these that have been released rotting at some point. The only one I have the slightest interest in is Hogan

I'm glad this line seems to be successful. I've always wanted a WWE figure line similar to S.H Figuarts as far as swappable parts go.

I believe Cena and Becky can be ordered from Entertainment Earth.

All mine have are Nakamura, Ronda, & HHH. Warrior didn't last at all. Bret hung around until a couple months ago & Balor was still visible until last month.

IMO the Ultimate Edition is the best line I even like them more than elites
