Distribution. It's only been released in Canada. The US hasn't even received the Bearer series. I got a set, but it was from a mate in Canada. The ones on eBay are all from there.

Piece of advice, get there as early as possible. VIPs get in early, so it gives you a chance to get in your line early, whether you are going to your VIP superstar first or another wrestler, it will allow you to get more autographs. Awesome tip, thanks for that! I hear you get a scheduled time to meet your VIP so hopefully I can get some others in before the VIP. It's just always impossible to know who will show up at what table. |

I might be the only one but I find him extremely boring and lacking in character, talent and charisma when compared to Harper or Wyatt. None of Rowan's stuff has been able to stick and I serioisly struggle to see him as any kind of significant player even in the mid card. Despite their efforts, he's not someone I could get behind and it seems like most of the audience hasn't either. I don't see him staying around for much longer at this rate.

Congrats, it's an awesome figure. I don't know how you all have the patience to wait this long! It's agonising!

Well that was a complete letdown. I wish they would have given us rock in pants with the just bring it shirt even if moulded on. Lame. Pass.

Awesome, thanks mate. I don't want to be greedy so I just to get an idea of what the norm is. I might prioritise one item and just have a few others in case I can get more. I'm meeting Triple H! Anytime my friend. I'm meeting Triple H too! Awesome! Should be good, bring it on!  Typically it's supposed to be one item, but some guys in the past have been very nice about it. Just don't be surprised if they limit you to one Yeah I'm going to go with the mindset of just getting one but hopefully he will sign a few more. Just going to have to see how it works out. Thanks for the input. I've been to axxess before but this is the first time I have a vip ticket. I'll also be meeting hhh his year. There is a limit of one per person but I guess you could always try for two. Sounds like we are in the same situation mate! |

Nice improvements on the Kanes. The colours on this version definitely make the scan better. Awesome skit too haha.

It's only one item but when I met John Cena and Sheamus last year, Cena signed two things, and Sheamus signed three things. I didnt even ask them. They asked me if I wanted anything else signed which I thought was really cool. Who are you meeting by the way? Awesome, thanks mate. I don't want to be greedy so I just to get an idea of what the norm is. I might prioritise one item and just have a few others in case I can get more. I'm meeting Triple H! |

I've been to axxess before but not to a VIP or Premium Session. From your experience, how many items do the VIP's let you sign? Also, what have you taken to get signed before? Just doing my prep for WM31! Thanks  |

Has anyone here managed to find the new BOPPV series? A few months ago ● kaneisdaman ● reported about seeing the figures in a toy shops computer system. Anyone had luck? I haven't check TRU in a while but it seems like nobody has found them yet. It's disappontjg. The person I got actually sounded really competent (unlike most) so it's a shame to see that whatever showing hasn't actually made it in here. |

Ummm, its all part of branding. Every company has branding standards which include logos and in this case inverted logos. It can be black, it can be white. Its all under their brand. So the logo actually is NOT wrong. This precisely. As a designer I'm fully aware (and appreciative) of the inverted logo which forms part of the corporate identity guidelines that would have been made for the new wwe logo. It has many variations to use it different environments so it's not 'wrong'. |

Thanks guys! I wanted that lesnar but tru didn't get it last year thanks to Triple H. I can't believe they didn't even put it up on the website at least! That box is messed up...lol Haha yeah it is! Shame you didn't find Brock in stores, being overseas that was never possible for me. But I bought this from TRU.com and I'm pretty sure its still available if you want to purchase it! |

Thanks all! Nice! If you don't mind me asking, where did you find/get that 'Taker? I've been scouring eBay every day for the past month looking for it, with no luck. I bought them from a board member on here as the ones on eBay were a bit pricey at the time. Australia got the bearer set but not this elite set as we don't get any elites and haven't for years. toysrus always ships in one extreme or another. surprised they didnt try to jam all 3 in an envelope. Oh man, it's like that huge-ass box is the only size they have to ship things out in, I always feel like a weirdo carting a box in that'd been left on the doorstep just to find three World War Z figures or whatever inside of it. OP should consider himself lucky it all came in one shipment; mine are almost always fragmented and keeping my UPS guy busy for a whole week thinking I'm some deranged shopaholic. Yeah true, I am glad. I know postage normal goes on weight but it just seems ridiculously inefficient to send something this huge particularly overseas when it goes by air mail where real estate is expensive so to speak. |

The Hulk Rules one is better. Had they used the yellow writing on red shirt for the Elite, I would have gone the elite. But I think Im going to have to go for the basic and add the elite accessories. The Hulkamania one is a little bland if I'm honest.

Much like Brock himself, you don't see his streak figure around too much. No doubt it was a figure I had to have since I was there at WM30, so I put the order in. I wait, not too long, and then this beat turns up at the door, no not Brock, but the beast being THAT HUGE BOX. Given I want to keep it MOC, Im happy tru.com got it here in good shape, I just didn't expect it to come in a box big enough for a literal animal or beast, no pun intended of course.  Batista was to add to my WM30 collection which is a WIP as figures for that period continue to release, just a few more to go. This is probably the most detailed batista thats close enough to how he looked at WM30 despite the inaccuracy of the boots of that the attire has no green. E30 Lesnar was picked up to feature in my WM30 display. I hate the boring attire, so this was always destined to become street gear lesnar in what I feel has become his most iconic shirt ever. A switch of the hands and a not so crazy headscan turns out nicely. Just wish I could find some white shoes to swap onto it. E30 Lesnar is the perfect commemoration of the event. The most shocking moment in history, I still remember the eery silence in the arena when it happened. This figure just looks too good MOC and not as good loose, so an easy decision there. No WM30 collection can ever claim to be one without this version of the beast.  What did it look like inside? Something like this (having deflated what seemed like enough air bags to keep this thing afloat in the ocean).         My street gear Lesnar   The showdown that marked the beginning of the end...    And lastly, an update on my WM30 collection which has grown and will continue!  |
