I preordered one in store today, I can't wait for the call, "Sir, your Elite Roman Reigns is available at your convenience, sir.". What kind of advertisement do they have for it?

this was a bad idea..lol.. ive never bought a figure at walgreens. (i know alot of you have) it just makes no basic sense as to why they would release this HBK in this magnitude..just boggles me. i guess we wait and see if this becomes a easy or rare find. What about this 'boggles' you? 1) That Mattel made this HBK? - That I can't answer. I think there are a lot of better options, but this was a last minute replacement, so I'll cut them some slack. 2) That Mattel chose to sell it at Walgreen's? - My guess is that when retailer with over 8,000 locations(more than Walmart) wants to carry your product, the smart thing to do is to do business with them. At least try it and see how it goes. Now Walgreens will not do near the volume that a Walmart does, but even if Walgreens can only sell one case of figures per store(not all stores will carry them though), how much money does that add to Mattel's bottom line? Evidently enough that they are trying it. 3) Why Walgreen's decided to sell a WWE exclusive figure? - Walgreen's wants to get as many people in their stores as possible. Marketing to a group of people that may not normally go into your store is one way to do that. I've seen a number of comments on here from people that don't shop at Walgreens, going to Walgreens to get WWE figures. Walgreens hope is to make those people repeat customers. Not only for figures, but for any number of other things that may have caught that new customers attention. - As said above, Walgreens has been reaching out to collectors for a couple years now. Selling sought after exclusives for the Walking Dead, Marvel, Star Wars, various Funko and other lines. It must be working because they keep adding exclusives. Well said.

They had a Hulk Hogan one that had him ripping his chest open like he rips his shirt. I was most excited for that one but oh well... Maybe we'll get it in a later series. That figure sounds amazing. As long as we get Hulkster back under contract, I don't see why not.

The true answer is that most of them scalp or "help out their friends". Personally, I think buying more than two of a figure is just obnoxious. But at the same time, it's their money (hopefully not their parents). I just feel bad for kids who go to the store with their parents and don't find what they're looking for because some guy bought 5-6 of one figure. Just ridiculous. Thaaaaaank you. The only time I've bought doubles was for making Hogan customs we will never get. It's glotony when people clean house when a new figure or series comes out.

I throw them away, so if I did care I would only care for a little bit until I open the figure. haha Thats how you do it right there.

Dude, I'm probably just as excited as you are. I thought I saw a picture with the release date on it that said April 2016. I don't know maybe I just misread. I can not wait to have a Mean Gene.

Just got back from 2 Targets and 1 TRU. Looks like they got some new shipments of the mixed 1&2. I asked the worker to look in the back for me, I guess some slob went there yesterday and had them grab 2 cases of hof3 and bought them all. She said she wished she didn't because she knew he was gonna sell them on ebay. I wound up picking up Warrior from 1 store and Hogan from another to keep in the package (slight wear). I was really hoping for a Macho King. Oh yeah also picked up this dude... Nice gets man. People like that make me sick. They don't need that many figures. Gluttony at its finest.

I'd sh** if it was Styles but he lost. I guess it could just be, "Aj Styles arrives at wrestlemania 32".
