Today my brother and I went to Meijer, and they had Elite 16 CM Punk, so he picked it up. Minutes Later we hear this guy scream "WERE'S PUNK". We see this guy running through all the isles and wrestlers to find Punk. We about lost it. After buying Punk we were leaving the store and we saw the guy giving us the death stare over the Punk he saw in our hands. This made my day. Any other funny stories?

One time at Walmart I found a fresh case of E14 (well, minus ADR), but Rock was missing. I looked on the bottom shelf behind the Rings and found the last Rock As I leave out of the aisle, a kid and his mom go in the WWE aisle and she says to get the toy he had earlier. He looks behind the rings and then throws a fit saying he can't find it.

Why didn't he just take it with him? I remember back in the early TTL days, I found the first Kurt Angle and went crazy until I realized I didn't have the money for it. So I hid it in the clothes area under the bottom shelf where I knew no one would find it. The shelves actually raise up to pull off, so I hid it in there and it stayed there for another week or so until I went back and bought it. Good times haha

A good place to hide figures in TRU is the kids sports toy section. No kid these days wants any sports toys or nerf guns because they are all into computers. You could also try hiding figures behind puzzles and board games because no one these days buys those.

I don't have a funny fig story but back when I was younger I really liked the Care Bears and I had my entire room decorated like Care-A-Lot no joke. Well those new Care Bears came out along with something else I love, The Popples, and I made a rare venture to get them. Well they had a Noble Heart Horse which is the rarest Care Bear Cousin with the glitter stitched tummy symbol and all and as I was leaving there was this little girl who looked at the shelf and then looked in my hands and she just started to tear up with her mom right there and I just handed it to the little girl and she smiled and gave me a hug. That was worth it.

Unfortunately I don't have a story. But a good place I hide figures is under the whole cubicle thingy. I go get the money pull it out sweep off the dust and voila

I bought the wrestlemania melina and i was in the isle with it in my hands and this kid was pulling on his moms arm and she said to me "He really wanted that one" and I walked off thinking 'Well he's not gonna get it' Good times!

years ago, I was looking for CS Hogan (first CS Hogan) and it was the only one, as I took it someone saw me and said "I need this brother" I said "ok well so do I" he goes "I am a friend of Terry's" I go "wow, so am I! Well hate to cut this conversation short but me and terry are leaving the store" and he got pissed and stormed out of the store lol

Aha wow, great storys.
I would never harass someone for a figure I wanted, unless someone snatched it out of my hands or something.

If it was a Trent Baretta/Mark Henry two pack instead and the guy yelled "WHERE'S TRENT!" you should've looked him right in the eyes.

I dont understand if people find a figure and they want it, hold it in your hand or in your basket/trolley. why leave it there, continue shopping then come back for it at the risk of it being gone?
