So had to go into work(TRU) at 6am today...bummer, but passing by the WWE figs I saw the entire Series 1 Mattel figs with a 1 of 1000 Batista that they just put out. I waited until my break and then picked up the Batista. I haven't collected in YEARS, partly due to lack of quality in my eyes, but moreso lack of interest. Just wondering how much the series is going for right now, I was thinking of going over to a local collectibles show and selling to one of the vendors, didn't know what to try and get though. Is the rest of the series worth anything right now? Just the 1/1000s? BTW the series is pretty great, coming from a guy who had a glimpse back at paying way too much for RA Series 1 Lesnar and Mysterio at that same collectibles show. Might even pick up some figs now and then...the quality is worth it. (Again, I haven't even been in these boards in forever, but I didn't see any discussion like this for the Mattel line, I apologize if I've broken some new fig discussion rule)  |

I've seen a few 1/1000 on eBay for about 80 bucks. I think once the line actually hits ALL stores, the demand will be bigger, as will the price people are looking to pay.

I might be out of it seeing as I've had a long day, but isn't that kinda backwards? They've only hit TRU so far right? Wouldn't them hitting all stores diminish what people are looking to pay? But yeah, I'll just check out what those guys at the collectibles show are selling other 1/1000 figs for. I just don't want to give away that I've become a WWE figs noob. thanks for the help  |

If you have the chance, I would sell them NOW. The belts aren't accurate to anything, and there have only been a handful purchased in the whole country right now. In a few weeks, all SIX THOUSANDS of those belts will be on the market, and you can bet most of them will be on ebay and selling for $20-$25 if that.

Everytime Mattel releases a first time wrestler in Basic Series that wrestler will get a 1/1000 belt. So there will be plenty of those belts released throughout the year. But I'm sure depending on the wrestler and number on the belt people will throw money at them.

What a bad time for Batista to be having roid rage on Smackdown, kid's don't won't be begging their parents for poopy face Batista this Christmas  |

The most valuable time to cash in would probably be now or in many many years when series 1 becomes what RA1 was but with extra benefits for being 1/1000. Not sure as to how much you are out of the loop but these figs arent even out legally yet so you did very well to find mattel let alone 1/1000s.

I will most likely get a 1/1000 Triple H, just have to wait- but I have sources to get one very soon (before street date).
