where is everyone at, like who needs what superstars wise? I have everyone in the first three waves. I have Savage and Rock, but have never seen Typhoon or Mr. T. I have Quake and Rude, but have never seen Perfect or Bigelow. I have Piper and Hogan, but have never seen Albano or Vader. I have Hogan, Andre and Doink, but none of the ones after that wave.

My favorite KotR is King Harley Race. For some reason, I was a huge mark for him in that gimmick as a kid in the 80s. I was (probably) the only kid who cheered for him over Hogan when the two squared off! Anyway, was really disappointed when his first Elite was so limited and hard to find (feel the same way about Muraco, to be honest). Was beyond thrilled to get the re-release, even if I never saw it in the wild myself, and had to get it off eBay for MUCH cheaper than his first. Fingers crossed for a CC version!

Saw two pegs' worth of the red Hogan at my usual WM this morning. Glad that I looked through 'em, because there was a Doink in the very back of the bottom peg!

I'm having the same problem that some of y'all are, up here in the PNW. Usually just DiBiase and Shango, and lots of 'em (which is a shame, because in my opinion, those are definitely two of the better ones). Every once in a while, I'll see a Rock in addition to those two. Now that I am typing this out, one of the way-out-there WMs still has HTM, also.

I can't believe they've put out this many figures, and we still don't have Sheik, Volkoff, Studd, and Hillbilly. In addition to those, it's mind-boggling to think of how Hart and Austin have been omitted (so far).

Not that many. Ahmed Johnson, Billy Kidman, Torrie Wilson, The Miz, and Jake Roberts.

Went back to the Walmart where I saw S1 a week ago, and picked up the Rollins. Not sure as to what the case breakdown of these are, but they had 2x Cena, 2x Reigns, 1x Rock and 1x Rollins.

I saw all of S1 at one of my local WMs this past weekend. No peg or shelf tag for 'em, they were just kinda hanging out on the shelf below the Superstars figs. Looking back, I regret not picking any up. Really looking forward to Cody and AJ.

Found Andre at a local WM this past weekend, and scooped him up quickly. The paint for his stubble is kinda janky, but I figured a beggar can't be a chooser at this point.

In addition to those mentioned here already, I'd like to throw the Honky Tonk Man out there. OH MAN, did people ever hate this guy. Nuclear heat, no matter whom he went up against. In fact, during his IC reign, I'd put him up there with Flair's title reigns, in the fact that he put butts in seats (as in when he was on the card for a show, people would buy tickets with the hopes of seeing someone, ANYONE, beat him for that title, no matter if it was Steamboat, Savage, Roberts, Beefcake, etc that he was going up against that night).

Yeah, a year or so ago I got a lot of LJNs off of eBay. When they showed up, not only did they smell terrible, but they were also sticky.
I dumped 'em in the kitchen sink with warm water and Dawn. When my wife got home from work, she asked me "Why is my sink full of your dollies?"
Anyway, they smell better. Not perfect, but better. Still slightly sticky. At least, they were as of a year ago. I haven't got around to attempting to clean them more since then.

The Sy-Klone that I ordered from MC the day that it went up showed on my doorstep this morning. Complete surprise, as I hadn't received a shipping notification or tracking number for it. Not complaining, however! Stoked that he's here.

My Hart Foundation set showed up today! I got the standard blue cards. And Hitman's sunglasses are firmly in place on his face! Just wondering, did you place your order on the release date? I'm still waiting for my set to ship over two weeks later. Not sure if anyone else is having this issue. No, I didn't place mine until 3/21, as I waited until the MOTU Origins Sy-Klone went up for order (to save on shipping).

I voted for the Killer Bees, but my top want is King Harley Race paired with either red 'n yellow Hulk, JYD, or Duggan.

Kinda irritated with the distribution in my area (PNW). Most of the WMs in my area still have remnants of S3 (DiBiase or Shango, which are both spectacular figs in my personal opinion) that they refuse to clear out. I have not seen S4 anywhere around here, and the most recent wave that I've seen was a far out-of-the-way WM that I went to on a trip through that area months ago, and they had S5. I went out that way again with high hopes the weekend before last, and all they had was DiBiase/Shango again.

Got my Andre (black singlet) and Macho yesterday! I was personally tickled pink that these two were paired together in this wave. Why?! Because the main event of the second WWF show that I ever went to (summer of '88) had Savage defending his world championship against Andre. Very special memory for me!
