I've been trying to get this figure for about a year and it seems very hard to find for a decent price. Both versions are going for a lot of cash no matter where I look. Is there a reason that even the standard version seems so rare? It is a very underrated figure for sure, I should have bought it on Ringside when it was first available. Anyone else miss out on this figure who wanted it?

Series 72 and 73 for some reason had a lot of difficult figures to find and they also came out just as the secondary market boomed for figures.

There was a time when Ringside had him for under 20.00 and the chase at 20.00, I got the chase when it was at 20.00. Had pre-ordered the regular version originally. The sets from the beginning of the pandemic had some really good figures and now are getting a bit harder to get. It's the first and only figure of gran metalik as well.

Such a good figure, I need it. Maybe one day.

Metalik is basically a job guy in WWE, but i knew it was likely my only chance at getting him when he was released. He’s great.

I’ve been trying to get the regular lince because somehow I missed that one, the prices are ridiculous as well.

I was able to find both Dorado versions, but none of Metalik's

Goodness.. I had no idea. I had mine preordered. I figure there is a good chance it will be his only Elite unless something huge happens in the landscape of WWE.

Jesus Christ this secondary market is out of control. I was not expecting it to be $100+. Completely ridiculous
Metalik and most of E73 was so easy to find before the pandemic. Every Walmart was full of Bryan, HHH, & Elias, and Metalik was usually there as well. I bought the black one but never got the blue one or Elias. Not too interested in them now to complete my set if this is the price range either.

Yeah, I passed the one time I saw it at retail. It was the chase version and I really wanted the blue attire. Never saw it again, never saw the figure on Amazon, and no way I'm ever paying about $20 for it. It's absolutely absurd what some pretty recent figures are going for right now.

I don’t think he necessarily was suppose to be champion. They may have very well have asked him, but TJP and Brian Kendrick were the only two guys who had to ability to take all Wwe’s dates right away. The other guys had to finish commitments before house shows etc. That’s why TJP was the first champ and Kendrick was the first feud. |

I grabbed him because I wanted Lucha House Party. Never expected he'd become so expensive, but I will admit I knew what some of Kalisto’s previous figures were going for so I wasn't taking any chances. For $16 at Walmart, it was an easy decision.

Most of those elite series from 70 on except for 74 we're hard to find in my area.
