Yet another 1/1000 score tonight! I picked up a 1/1000 Survivor Series John Morrison #525! I like the figure other than the head; which looks terrible. I am done with Survivor Series now and am on the look out for Basic 3.
Check your Wal-Mart's for Elite 3 as it looks like they are out now in full force. I got a chance to see all of them in the series and they all look good! Probably the best series so far in the Elite collection. I didn't pick up any, but the John Cena figure is tempting to pick up...
@ Juice: Sadly, you are probably right...

Awesome you got that 1/1000 Morrison. I agree, they need to fix that head. Still a great figure though.
Went to Walmart and they finally got in Elite 3. They all look really awesome. Picked up Christian and Im glad I did. Very nice figure., and looks much better in person.
Will probably get all of these except for Cody Rhodes.
Still looking for Survivor Series and Basic 3.

Thanks man! I am glad I got the Morrison as well. This is the first series that I was able to find all of the 1/1000's that it offered (lol, even though there are only two in this series). I have 10 1/1000's, yet I can't even find a damn C.M. Punk...the one I want more than any of them... I agree with your opinion of the Elite 3 Christian. I thought it was going to look horrible, but it is much better in person as you said. What does his tights look like (if you have opened it) as the entrance attire covers it up in the package. Check all of the Wal-Marts around you for Survivor Series as one of them should have the series in stock. Most of the Wal-Marts around my area have them in stock now...some even have more than one case for once...

Christian's attire looks awesome. Perfectly painted.. no smudges whatsoever. I was a little worried about buying a figure where I couldnt see the tights. Honestly, this might be my favorite Mattel figure now. It's just really well done.
I think Im gonna get The Miz or HBK next.
I'll have to check the other Walmarts out tomorrow or Monday. Thanks for the headsup. I really want The Miz (Survivor Series). And hopefully I can find a 1/1000.

Good luck with the hunt, although I would get the Survivor Series Miz over the Elite version (unless you plan to get both). The Survivor Series version is one of my top favorite Mattel figures so far. Plus it is his updated attire!

Found Miz 1/1000 today at Walmart in Durham. I think it's 954/1000. They also had Elite 3 but only Santino. Found fresh case of Elite 3 and PPV at another Walmart in Morrisville but no 1/1000. I really don't buy basic but I pick up Miz. Might trade him for some Jakks figures. I think this is like the 10 1/1000 that I found in stores but only bought like 5 of them. Sold the rest and only have 1000 Cena

I was off on vacation this past week, so I didn't get to go figure hunting around here. So did anyone come across Basic 3 since I was not able hunt?
On a side note, my sister picked me up one of the WWE All Scale John Cena sets at the TRU in Winston while I was gone. She was able to take advantage of the door buster deal and got it for $7.99! If I would have known that they have Shawn Michaels in that series, then I would have got her to pick up one of those as well...

I'm not sure if you would be willing to travel, but there is a Big Lots in Albemarle that had what looked to be a nice selection of Unmatched Fury figures (from what I saw) when I was there last week. I do know that they had a few Bobby Lashley figures in stock. I can also tell you that there is at least one Big Lots in Greensboro as well as Asheboro and Burlington. Good luck!

Finally picked up an Elite 1 CM Punk after waiting for months. I went to pick one up that was supposedly at the Kmart in Clemmons, but when I got there it was gone. I don't know if it was purchased before I got there or what, but unfortunately I did not score one there. They have a sale on Basic and Flex Force figures, however, there is nothing on the shelves at any of the local Kmart stores, especially that one. The sale that was listed in the paper also said that WWE deluxe figures are on sale, so I figure they have made a mistake and possibly meant the Elite figures are on sale? At least that is what I was hoping would have happened when I arrived there today. Anyway, I got frustrated as I have been wanting that figure for a while, so I decided to make the usual stops in Winston. I found one at the Target on Hanes Boulevard and left behind one more Elite Punk and Ted DiBiase, Jr. as well as four Basic 2 Punk's. I have finally picked up an Elite and more than likely won't pick up anymore for a long time. Nothing to note except the fact that the TRU in Winston has a ton of the WWE All Scales (minus Shawn Michaels...has anyone seen one at any of the TRU's?) and re-release Classic Superstars figures. No sign of Basic 3 at all around that area... mankind: I thought I would also add that I stopped in at the Big Lots in Clemmons and they had four Bobby Lashley Unmatched Fury figures in stock.

I went out and done some decent figure hunting yesterday since I haven't got to do so in a few weeks. I scored a Basic 3 1/1000 Mickie James #624 at a Target in Charlotte! I noticed that the TRU in Concord has the Ruthless Aggression figures on sale for $6.99; they had a few of Hornswoggle in stock (on sale) which was interesting. Any other exciting finds lately?

Hey guys, hope all of the NC boys here are doing well I had to run down to Winston this morning for a doctors appointment. After I was done, I stopped by Wal Mart on Hanes Blvd. They had a few PPV 2 Morrison's, and a few Elite figures. They had Rhodes, Cena, and a few MVP's I picked up the Elite Cena. I also checked Target on Hanes Blvd. The had one each of Elite series 3. They also had an Elite Punk and MVP. Earlier this week my Wal Mart here in Wilkes restocked with Elite series 2 but it was a split case of Batista and Triple H only. They had the remains of Basic series 3 too. Undertaker, Khali, James, and the 1/1000's were all gone. Take care guys

Wal-Mart in Mocksville looked like they had just put out a new case of PPV 2! I picked up a Kofi and #916 of 1000, John Morrison! I also picked up WrestleMania 3 from another Wal-Mart for just $3 Dollars. BDK, Did Target have Christian? I have looked everywhere for one.

Only thing I want from what's on shelves now is Elite John Cena. I saw him a couple times but didn't really care for it at the moment. Now I cant find him! haha oh well.
