Nice finds. I'd love to find these in stores one day... but I'm in Canada, so that's not going to happen lol. The last Elite series we've seen is Series 8

Nice! I hit my K mart up too, which is an hour away from where I live, and luckily they just sat the floor display out today before i got there so i got first picks at things. I only took 1 Nash because i'm really trying to save the rest of what i got to at least pre order a couple E19 figs when they go up next week hopefully so I can get them in time before X mas. Was really awesome finding nash at retail though after seeing how "hard he was to get" there for a while, and seeing everyone scalping him online for $50-$80. This was the first time I actually found a decent figure at retail that made me excited and made the hunt enjoyable in a long time.

I really think they will be easy to find soon....I am not going to sell-but just thinking I would trade one for something I really wanted. Personally, I am slowing down at buying figs since I mainly want/buy Legend type figs....but I want this one, Tully and the upcoming Mankind/Lawler figure.Nice!

disclaimer: Great finds!!!
now: everyone buying 2 at a time will make it harder for others and more depending on how many locations hit. i do suspect a bit of the pot calling the kettle black with these cubes and buying up the hot fig. everyone complains when people do it, yet are jumping all over itwhen they get the chance. Dont get me wrong, i dont care. id be doing it for fixups and trades myself if i got there first. I already got a nash for display awhile back. I Just find it ironic about people whining about this practice but do it when they actually are able to lol

everyone buying 2 at a time will make it harder for others and more depending on how many locations hit. i do suspect a bit of the pot calling the kettle black with these cubes and buying up the hot fig. I gotta say, nothing is sadder than one of these cubes after it's been devoured by the vultures. Full of stuff nobody wants, taunting you with the emptiness which once contained cool figures. Why can't they just put more of the good stuff on these things and less of the bad? But I guess it doesn't matter, because all it takes is one scalper to come along and ruin things for everybody else. I found no cube today - but that at least gives me hope that I might find it another day - though I'm not really too optimistic considered how much junk my local K-Mart had. I found the cubes recently that TRU got, but both of them had been ransacked before my arrival - thankfully, they had nothing on them I didn't already have (luckily I found Nattie once cuz otherwise I'd be bummed about those cubes).

Great Stuff Bro! its because they are not part of a regular case. its a promotional shipper. widely distributed. but due to its demand, still hard to find since when one collector finds it, they buy both, then proceed to next kmart. so a handful collectors in an area will get them all. part of the game lol

I have never whinned or complained, those that do have "sour grapes" because they don't have one......folks who really want these figs-spend huge $ at RSC to get them, which is cool-however retail is a different story. Why did the Legends fail?-not enough were sold at retail....so anyone buying figures at retail is only good for business.disclaimer: Great finds!!! now: everyone buying 2 at a time will make it harder for others and more depending on how many locations hit. i do suspect a bit of the pot calling the kettle black with these cubes and buying up the hot fig. everyone complains when people do it, yet are jumping all over itwhen they get the chance.

He was not in the first shipment back in Sept that went out, but he is in the revision case. The revision case has been spotted a few times by members on here at there local retail stores, and also those shippers are made up of cases of figures. So yes I think Nash is going to be easier to find now as long as people look for him since the revision cases are being shipped out. Wal Mart, K mart, Target, and Toys R Us will probably all have them soon enough.
