Anyone could have bought one before really. They were mass produced and given to anyone who bought 4 figures from Toys R Us so a lot of ppl got him then. Some people even bought 2, and they were up on ebay and i'm sure ppl had them in classifieds to even. So it wasn't like he was a rare hard to get figure. RSC just helped provide it more for international customers and people who don't trust buying from ebay that missed out getting him last year.

I think it's a very decent price considering what these have been going for, and it's awesome to get a second chance at something like that. I do wish Mattel would see this and know that people are obviously willing to buy guys in suits though lol...they could easily be placed in the normal line and do just fine:)

I THOROUGHLY DISAGREE WITH THE MAJORITY HERE.....!
$50 FOR A SINGLE WRESTLING FIGURE WITHOUT ACCESSORIES IN PLAIN SMALL PACKAGING IS ABSURD...!!
NOT GONNA BOTHER ARGUING FOR AND AGAINST FOR THE RETAIL ONLINE COMPANY WHICH DOES WHAT IT PLEASES (LIKE SOME OF YOU TEND TO DO).....JUST POINTING OUT THE BRUTAL FACTS...
VINCE IS NOT WORTH MORE THAN $30....!!!
AND EVERYONE WHO BOUGHT THEIR INITIAL 4 FIGURES ......NOTHING BETTER THAN A GOOD OLD FASHIONED FIGURE HUNT HEY?

How much was it at retail? Oh that's right it wasn't available at retail. I think considering where most are priced on the market, 50 is fair.

Well, I would have bought one, but the cheapest shipping to UK was nearly $30 for 1 figure. I don't care how much care is taken into keeping things MOC, that's a joke....

I really want to get him since my TRU seemed to never update during the whole promotion. But I think I should use that 50 bucks towards some other figs instead.

Cheapest figure available for the Promo was the Legends at $12.99. You buy 4, that's 51.96 before tax. After taxes, it's 55.02. Add $5 for shipping and a few cents for stamps and your over $60. Hmmmm............

Hmmmm............ ok people who say vince is worth the £60 is missing one key fact. $60 for ONE figure online .. . . . . . $60 for 5 figures (includes this fifty buck vince) in stores. vince was free, not $60, the sixty dollars got you 4 other figures.

Point is understood. I guess I didn't explain mine too well. My point is that this figure was not a mass retail figure. Is was a promotional figure that could only be obtained within a window of a few months. Yes, it may have been free, but you had to go out of your way to get it. It has been over a year since that promotion started and now, you can't get the figure through the promotion anymore. If a figure is not easily attainable anymore, it's price is going to go up because other than finding someone who has it, checking on eBay, or now, buying it from RSC, there is no other possible way to get it.

Hmmmm............ But how many of you bought four of those figures, and sold (or at least a part of them) afterwards? And if you didn't sell them afterwards, then you actually needed those figures for your collection anyway, am I correct with this theory (I am assuming nobody bought or kept doubles)? So in the end, Vince was still only USD 5,- for most of you. At least, this is my humble opinion, agree or disagree!

Considering the prices RSC usually slap on "rare" figures, this is an excellent price.

Thats as cheap as its gonna get for you international ppl though. Vince was $80-$100 plus shipping for the longest time here through ebay, and he is not sold in stores so idk how much of a joke it is considering this figure will not be sold at retail and Mattel doesn't think they will be making a Vince again in a suit at least. If ya want him in your collection its either buy now or just never own. The brutal truth really. Glad I sold mines for $100 about a month ago. Tempted to order some more. This dude. I always see your stuff on ebay. 3 times what its retail cost is. I think if you bought a bunch more Vince figs, you wouldn't make anything now cause if anyone wants one there going to get it off RSC for $51 shipped.
