Thanks for the update. I can also report no TNF3 elites in any other Wal-Mart I visited today. Those being: WM Hudson, NH WM Tewksbury, MA WM Walpole, MA WM Bellingham, MA It was a 1 for 5 today. Gosh do I spend too much time in Wal-Mart's. Holy hunt!..... thats sweet you didn't strike out completely Thanks, there was a trip to visit my mom in southern MA sandwiched in there yesterday in which I stopped at many Targets & WM's in a 130 mile radius in the the Northeast. I may have gotten the only 4 available TNF 3's available in MA & NH yesterday.

I can report a finding of TNF3 elites today at the WM in Chelmsford. They had one of ea. (none after I bought them all). No new retro's yet but at least 3 of every character from E51. Of course, this was as of 7AM today.
Hopefully the TNF's start to roll out in full force soon.

Interesting news.
Maybe I got lucky. My card was charged for it yesterday & Amazon tracking is stating it is arriving on Tuesday 9/5.
Oh well, I guess we'll see.

Greetings,
I picked up "The List" Jericho figure from the store called Think Geek on the second floor of the Rockingham Mall in Salem,NH about 1/2 an hour ago. $22.99 & it was the last one.
I heard from employee that the Gamestop on the 1st floor also had some but I did not check to confirm.
Thanks.

Super awesome. Thanks badguy! I'm perplexed as to if he ever did wear red like his LJN figure. I recall his Hasbro having red knee-pads as well.I wonder if all his figures up to Mattel were inaccurate?
Kind of off topic, but that match reminded me of when Dr. D David Schultz attacked a television reporter over wrestling being fake. Anyone else here "old" enough like me to remember that?

Could somebody please post a photo of Rowdy Roddy Piper from his 80's WWE(F) run in wrestling gear (after he took the t-shirt & kilt off) that is NOT his classic blue trunks and blue knee-pads if there is one? Always remember that his LJN figure had red trunks and red knee-pads. I'm his WWF debut he wore green trunks with green kneepads. Thank you badguy. I don't suppose that you could recommend an avenue where I could find a photo of it? Thanks again.

Any sign of Retro 2's or new TNF elites? Haven't seen them in southern NH yet. Checked the WM in Hudson, NH last night - they had the shipper but no TNF Elites or new retro's (did have the new TNF basics though) Checked the WM in Salem, NH this morning - nothing there - however; they are in the process of re-setting their entire toy section so it could be soon - lots of empty shelves with plan-o-grams hanging up. I have to go up to Manchester this afternoon so I am going to check that WM as well, maybe Derry if I have enough time. More to come. Update: came up with more of the same at the Manchester & Derry WM's as well. Manch did have some WM Shawn & HHH elites left on clearance of which I grabbed two HBK's and one H for customs for a total of $39 bones.

I third it. I never want stop to STOP. That '98 Foley is sweet.
BTW, Vandam is that a Mega Powers Macho in your Avatar, I've been working on one for a few weeks but the yellow paint is kicking my but both in terms of accurate shading and application.
May I invite you to PM me a larger version of that photo if available for inspiration?
Thank you.

Ducked out of work for few and backed into a nice haul at about 10:15AM today courtesy of the Salem, NH TRU and TRU.com. Grabbed 2 SS Finns (they had 4 & 4 with Mankind - thinking that is a case - 2 Finns left after the 2 I got), 1 of the new Andre's w/long hair & brown vest, a Network Spotlight basic Sting (they had the whole set) & a random old ADR basic with gold knee-pads no idea what series-lol. They also had about 5 DM Macho's the usual shelf-warming Network Spotlight elites, DM UM Warrior, as well as Big E, Tugboat, and a few E50 Cena's in the "reg" elite category, several of the battle-pack set with Miz & Maryse, the SS two packs, all the SS singles, several B72's, and that's about all I can remember. After I returned to work I got a TRU notification that the SDCC Isaac was available for order (limit 1 per customer) I ordered it and the basic Owens that has red graphics. I hope I get the Isaac - if not, still happy with today although my wallet is very angry.

Count me among the folks who have mentioned the BATB 3 pack.
I see it at WM all the time and I keep telling myself although I want it I'm not paying $50 for it.
I continue to play the waiting game for it to go on sale, clearance, or I come into a gift card to offset the cost.
The wait continues.....

Sorry Gore I know the feeling.
One of my New Years resolutions was to start in on the "fix-up" & customization game and in my learning I have ruined a few figures as well.
Every time it happens it hurts but I keep telling myself the old adage "if you want to make omelets, you have to be willing to break a few eggs".
Good luck.

Dear all that is holy TheXtremisT that Jericho made me audibly shout with joy. That is everything I hope to create when I grow up but I have a long way to go - lol.
You have a new follower on the gram btw. Thanks for sharing.

They must have recently got Savage in, as I was there on Friday 6/23 & they did not have him yet. I did buy the last E38 Bryan that did not have the shirt stolen for 15.99. I wonder if Vince & Taker will go on clearance next? You bought e38 Daniel Bryan then you are a hero! I wish there was someone like you around my woburn tru because they don't get elites anymore since Bryan already owns all the shelf space This part of the Mattel distribution game is so interesting to try to figure out. I barely see that E38 Bryan in southern NH any longer and he is good for the shirt and parts so I picked it up while it was on sale. Being a mass resident for about 40 years, I'd love to help you all out but I just can't stomach the sales tax. I hope the stores you frequent go with out with the old in with the new philosophy soon.

Grabbed the last Randy Savage WM3 DM at TRU in Manchester, NH on Friday. They had nothing else really new, lots of Network Spotlight Vince and Taker still as well as Ringmaster (clearanced to $13) and HHH (clearanced to $12). They must have recently got Savage in, as I was there on Friday 6/23 & they did not have him yet. I did buy the last E38 Bryan that did not have the shirt stolen for 15.99. I wonder if Vince & Taker will go on clearance next?
