So at what point did it say no international shipping offered? I attempted to pay via PayPal afterwards (before I realised it has gone off my Amex) and said it couldn't confirm an address and then said doesn't dispatch to the UK. I find the whole thing a bit of a mess but seems you've had no trouble. I never have before either though. I tried Paypal and had the same issue as you. I also tried checking out via the basket and it let me fill out my billing address, when it asked for a shipping address it said no international shipping for this order. I've ordered from the US TRU site before and im not doing anything different this time. Could be i'm doing it via my mobile phone instead of a desktop computer/laptop??

The debut John Cena is up for pre-order on US Toys R Us, and we can order it! Have you pre-ordered it?? When I tried it said no international delivery offered

Hi Has anyone seen the following seth rollins wrestlemania cash in figure in UK stores as not near toys r us? My lad desperately wants one but not sure whether to just wait or get the new elite instead? Anyone ordered from us toys r us before? m.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=71598926That figure hasn't been released yet. It's due for release in the US end of October, not sure how UK TRU exclusives release dates have previously compared to the Americans, and thats if we are even getting it at all. I'd like to think we will though as we've had most previous TRU exclusives. The new elite Seth Rollins is a really good figure, if your son isnt bothered about the WWE title it comes with I would just get the elite as you can pick it up now at Smyths instore and online

This Wrestlemania elite Rock was the first figure I got for myself. Before that I had been buying figs for my son, but this was the figure that got me addicted, still one of my personal favourites

What does that consist of and how much all together? It consists of two Arena Pop-Up's. I know a lot of people have been vocal about their dislike for them, but having built an arena once before, I had no desire to do it again, plus these look awesome. The actual item was around £59, which isn't too bad. The shipping was quite hefty because of the size, so it came to £121 posted. I know a lot of you are going to say that it was a waste of money, but it was something that I wanted and I was happy to pay it, so let's not get into an argument over it please! I almost pulled the trigger on the same arena pop-up set but in the end I couldn't justify the shipping price plus potential custom charges, plus I wanted the RSC barricade set more so opted for that. Happy for you tho pal I think they look really good. I ended up making my own for a fraction of the price. Got my bro-in-law who is a graphic designer to print it out at his work for me. Scales not right but it does for me.

Absolutely loving how the Bulldog figure looks but dreading the state of how some the paint apps will turn out on this fig

Ive been in and out of this thread a few times, and the more times I see the Sting figure I kinda like it.
I expect to be in the minority with that haha
I display my figures and it will make a good display piece.
If i played with, figure fed etc... then yeh the painted shirt would bug me

No way does Godfathers vest say "pimpin ain't easy" on the back So I wonder if it's blank , or says something else it's blank If someone can do a Pimping Aint Easy decal sticker for the back of vest that figure will be incredible

I'd blind preordered Sting, Sid and Bulldog.
Wish I'dd added Godfather too now - his figure is near perfect.
Bulldog is knocked out of the park too - cant wait for that it looks awesome.
Sting - the first picture looked odd like his head was squashed. The later pics look better, personally i'm not too bothered about the painted red shirt, mine will be displayed in his jacket so makes no difference to me.
Sid looks ok, good scan it looks like him a lot, but sort of wish it wasnt a goofy smiling scan. Would have preferred a more serious look - and not sure how many more, if any, Sids we will get. A winged eagle belt would have been nice with it.
Mizdow looks ok - nothing spectacular just what I was expecting
Dolph is ok, nothing more.
But Godfather and Bulldog....wow!!

Had my Seth, Brock and Steph figures delivered today to complete E37 for me.
Each of the figures had some paint app issue. Not bad enough to return but still annoying and that is the danger of buying online.
With the Smyths sale and updated Seth Rollins being a highly wanted figure I guess I did panic-buy online.
I wont be doing the same with E38 whenever that hits I will pick them up in-store. I could have easily picked up a full E37 set this weekend and been able to quality check the paint apps for myself.

What does your order status say ? Mine says 'Being Fullfilled' They better ing not cancel it! Mine says the same. Hopefully, we'll be OK. Mine had better not get cancelled especially as I went to Leeds Smyths and could have picked up the E37 figures from my order. Only thing that stopped me was I would have gotten some grief from the missus when I got home, I get the majority of my figs without her knowing! Anyway I got the Miz and my son with his birthday money got Cena and Seth from E37 and HOF Eddie and Hogan and the ringside battle playset. I'm now hoping on monday to get an order dispatched notice or I will be majorly pissed!!

And already E37 are unavailable to buy online with Smyths. Seriously, what are they playing at these days? If they cancel my order, I will NOT be happy. Could it just be that their online stock has sold out or could they be cancelled? Have they done this before? I'm going to Smyths today, if the figs I want are in stock im tempted to buy them and cancel my online order. Will save 20% then too.

I like it. A lot better than the current packaging.
My favourite packaging is still the original black from back in the day
