Hello folks- Today, I went to Walmart to gather supplies for my classroom. While browsing the toy aisle, I found these guys... Yes, your eyes are correct. That's twelve 1/1000 Mattel figures (6 Michaels and 6 Goldust). I did not have any interest or need for them, so I left them (they were only placed in the cart to take the picture). Enjoy!

Holy mother of ass dude! I've only found 1 1 of 1000 in stores, and i found one at a toy show at the mall. That's absolutely crazy man, it must've taken a lot to leave them there huh? I hope to find at least one more 1 of 1000 in stores.

This just makes me sick. I've been hunting for a 1/1000 HBK like you wouldn't believe.

With series 4 it was a common occurrence for the stores to get cases with 2 1 of 1000s as there were several cases shipped out without the 1 of 100's
The asst were MVP/Regal, Matt Hardy/Ziggler and Goldust/HBK.

Wow, that's crazy! I got the exact same thing a few nights ago, you just beat me by a Shawn Michaels, heheh!
I see you put them back (Lucky you had a camera on-hand!), I wonder if we did go to the same store?

I went today to a Kennett Square, PA Walmart.
It didn't take much for me to put them back. I've had SO much luck with the Matty 1/1000 figures. I don't collect them though.

I really congradulate you on not buying them. Sure you coulda bought them and and resold them or traded but you didn't need them and you will prob. make some kid or another collector real happy when he finds them.

Reselling 1/1000 figures long after they have been out is not a profitable. If you are going to resell them....you need to get them right as the series hits stores. Its your only chance to make any money. I was able to sell my 1/1000 Melina for $36.
