Looks like I’m preordering a buttload of figures today where they will hold my funds yet hold me in limbo on whether or not they will ever send my items.

Still preparing. Hopefully mine ships. It would go a loooong way building confidence in Walmart.

Okay, I know someone HAD to have asked before but I’m going to now, why the HELL didn’t they put Hart Foundation in their Heel ‘86-‘88 attires like the original LJNs were? Been asked a number of times but never answered. It's a strange mashup between 1988 thru 1990 Hart Foundation. Oh, I happily ordered it, and I have resigned myself to another not great Bret scan. I just wish this was a set they would have stuck with the script for LJN era look, which was Jimmy Hart’s Hart Foundation.

Just a heads up, the Ring is actually cheaper if you order it on Ringside despite being listed as 10 bucks more depending on what state you are in. Ringside for whatever reason doesn’t charge sales Tax, and you get free shipping if you order more That 60 bucks worth of stuff with a SHIPFREE60 coupon.

Hell has frozen over. Just got my shipping notices for Brock and RVD from Walmart. Hopefully it isn't the wrong product. I remember when I ordered my 4 classified retro card Crimson Guards and they sent me 4 Lady Jayes, all beat up cards and clearance stickers all over them. And they gave me grief about trying to return them…

This thread is about to make me bring back my GME-era "DeepFigureValue" handle. I like the figs. This is not fignancial advice. I'll have you know good sir, I was a certified AMC Ape during that time AND I made money off those stocks. So I'm pretty qualified to give stock advice...but not collecting advice. I let the experts in the thread handle that. I sold a bunch of my big cards during the Pandemic. Of course watching the behavior of the card companies during that time period turned me almost completely off of the hobby. But I got out and made a lot of money on people paying way too ing much on basic ass cards.

Recieved Airborne last week. Opened him over the weekend. Really nice figure. Charged for the Vamp. And Quick Kick, Big Boa, and the Techno Vipers should all ship next week according to Pulse’s desktop site.

Apparently I bought the set on eBay half asleep last night. 😅 More than I would’ve liked to have paid, but at least I don’t have to keep going into my Walmarts anymore. One good side note. I hit Walmart after a movie last night. No shipper…but did pick up a blaster of Prizm basketball. Ended up pulling a Silver Wemby. I always end up trying to get a silver Prizm of the big rookies every year. Saved myself 275 bucks by pulling him from a pack.

So…no shipper at my home Walmart…but there was a stabbing there this morning. There is more of a chance of me being involved in a violent crime at my lovely Walmart than there is of finding the figures I want. I’m glad they switched the Classified Retro Card Duke, Scarlett, and Recondo to fan channel exclusives instead of just Walmart exclusives.

With the rvd being shown are they doing ecw as a brand in the war? No, its in his 1997 Raw attire against Jeff Hardy. Although he DID wear that throughout Spring-Fall of '97 on ECW TV. You just have to add wrapped Hands or Compressor gloved hands from other RVD releases. Because he started wearing Wrapped hands and Compressor gloves around that time.

WHy do I get the feeling that THIS is going to be the line where they throw in the '96 Face champion Shawn Michaels in a regularly worn (not just a one or two off) attire that I've been begging for for years?

This is exhausting. Sorry our little plastic men depreciated in value. I’ll be getting the Cena. Although, isn’t there a part of you that KNEW these meltdowns were going to happen the minute you saw these listed? I knew it was coming and I’m not disappointed.

It looks like there only one or two full sets of the MNW on the displays so you pretty much got to be the first one to get there or you miss out. Then they won’t usually get anymore of them. These stores should really start working on loading shelves back up once they go empty. What a useless display. No fense mattel, but that will be empty after the first 2 collectors notice it. Man i remember these shippers being at least 4 deep back in the day. Seems pointless. Might as well just put them up on pegs. You’ll start seeing in toy groups pics of guys just posting pics of the display they bought from the store with only the MNW and Paul Bearer chases on it. With #Earlybirdgetstheworm and #HustleHarder tags.

As someone who started collecting on Elite series 1 and owns every main line figure from 1-39, this is very good, they should keep doing this Every single one of these had single joint arms, stagnant hands, and many had bad face scans (some of which unfortunately still do on the Vault releases). The argument that they should never release these again is stupid EXACTLY. Also, I’m getting the legends themed figs from this series, but I think I’m going to keep the originals too, because, they are just different enough for me to keep, and they have another place in my collection now, so I can pose THESE better, and leave the other ones more static posed…if that makes sense. IIRC that is the first Phenom-era attire (Survivor Series 1996) I always thought it looked great…it eventually involved into his 1997-early ‘99 look. And ‘97-‘99 IMO is PEAK Underaker. That is my Definitive era, and with the MNW, The Legends, the Ultimate, the old Network Spotlight, and a better rerelease here. We kinda have that whole era covered.
