I've been on the hunt for Ultimate Hogan at my target for about two months now with no luck. I check at least once a week.
Is it safe to say the only way to purchase him will be ringside or the secondary market, or could we expect further shipments?
For reference, I'm in upstate NY and we currently have Elite 82 and some basics

If you've been on the hunt and cant find them, why not just order them and whatever extra cost your spending chalk it up to your time and gas money spent on searching for them at retail at this point?

I’d strongly recommend ordering him off ringside soon because he’s starting to go up in price and I don’t see retail getting any more of these

Possibly even going $200-300 or more after a year or 2. Warrior, HBK, and The Rock are all going up more in value practically every day. Bret Hart and Triple H are as well. I'd definitely get it now before it goes up any higher. Retail won't be getting these back. Obviously I'm not 100% sure of that, but usually once they're gone, they're gone.

UE Macho Man is for sale on Walmart.com for $29.99. Makes me wonder if Walmart will be getting UEs in-store now.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Yeah, I think I'm going to pull the trigger before the price inflates even further. While it has its flaws, it's a great figure and one we've been waiting on for years now

As I continue my exclusive quest to find a Hollywood Hulk Hogan in the wild I had an unfortunate experience. I was at a near by Target when I saw one of their workers putting out merchandise in the toy dept. I took a chance and asked the guy if the Mattel boxes on his cart had any Ultimate Hollywood Hogan figures. The guy turned around and said " look, I'm tired of hearing about this Hollywood Hogan toy, if it's not on the shelf we don't have it". I was stunned at his rude response but having worked retail myself in the past just chalked it up to him having a bad day. Anywho, any of you guys had similar experiences asking retail employees about their stock?

$42 on RSC or $41 for a damaged box. Ridiculous, but most likely less than secondary market. Unfortunately RSC is probably your best bet.

I waited too long on the UE Warrior and UE Rock and paid more than I wanted to for those figures. I won't make that mistake again. If you want the Hogan, grab it now while the price is reasonable.

I never saw it in stores, so about 3 weeks ago I bought him from ebay for about $46.
Seller was spam81 if you're interested

Isn’t he back in stock at RSC? I thought I received an email about that yesterday or the day before.

I wouldn’t sleep on this one. Look at every Ultimate released so far. In a few months this will be a $100 figure. Code 4Life save you 10% at Ringside 😉

Another Hollywood will get made. Then the prices on this one will level out a little. Still probably best to buy now
