Did any U.K. collectors manage to get Brisco & Pat Patterson elites that came out a while back? Yes, I picked them up on Amazon for retail prices. Also picked up Jerry Lawler and the new Fan Takover Steamboat recently both for $19 each. Got the Fan Take Over NWO X-pac on the way in April. No customs charge with Amazon, so now and again you can do well if you keep your eye out on Amazon US. Also got Sherri and Bob Backlund at the time for retail. It’s tough, I had to become a loose collector and try to get fig bros in the US to ship stuff for me loose. MOC was getting far too expensive, just ridiculous and to be honest they were rarely truly MOC anyway as they often had scuffed boxes or dented in some way. The exclusives that come out of Targett and Walmart especially always seemed banged up. When I went to Mania 33 in Florida, I did some fig hunting in Target and the state of the figures is crazy, picked up the TNF natural disasters at the time and had to beg the lady to find some in the back that luckily were fine. The ones on the shelf looked like they’d been booted around the store all day or sat on. Recently had Rock UE come in a Jiffy bag from the US. I’m lucky enough to be able to afford to collect the legends/flashbacks that I want but I’m not a mug, I wouldn’t be a U.K. MOC collector of I was a millionaire to be honest, it’s just either not possible or a complete rip off.
