I was just curious as to why all the figures in this set are so over priced...was this set a super short printed set or something? It was before I started really getting into it so was just seeing what was up with the set, thanks guys.

It's down to it being elites of DX, I think. It wasn't produced in fewer numbers than any other elite set, as far as I know. This series popped up in pretty much every Toys R Us in the UK again this time last year, strangely enough.
Hornswoggle and Shawn Michaels were really popular figures. Triple H and Cena, not so much. And nobody wanted the Hart Dynasty.

This was a popular set, all except Cena but all Elite Cenas sell unless you make two different versions of him like E14/TRU PPV.
Even Hart Dynasty was sought after since they were either one per case or every other one case.
I seen this set multiple times at retail, I should have bought more.

This set hung around my Walmart(s) for seemingly ever. I didnt think they'd ever get rid of it but they finally did. Hornswoggle was the only thing that sold out of it and thats because I bought it and resold it on here.

Ya, this is the only set I've never even seen like the remains of, that being Cena I'd imagine. I have only seen hornswoggle up close, since I bought him lol, but the rest just disappeared

The only figure from Elite 7 that I bought were DX and Hornswoggle.I didn't particularly care for the Cena in that series, but I kind of wish that I would have bought Smith and Kidd during the times that I saw them hanging on the pegs.

One of the worst sets, imo.

I honestly ever saw only a few of these figures in stores. The DH Smith that I bought, and I think a DX Triple H might have been it.

I wasn't collecting mattel back then. Wish I was though as the HBK and Kidd from that set are awesome. That's why I'm making sure I don't miss out on any good ones nowadays. Lol

I remember Walmart having this set shelf warming everyone except Horns. Now they are pricey.

^ You could make some good money on the HBK's. Not sure how the HHH and DHS are doing now though. But I know I sold my HHH for $25 loose.

My Walmart usually gets 3 - 4 cases of Elites. But they must have restocked E7 8 - 10 times, I couldn't believe it kept selling out.
I customized one of my HHHs into an Ivan Putski.

It is because the DX elites are in that series!

In Hamley's in the UK This is the set they around about July and they around 20 of each figure except they had no Tyson Kidds.I picked up a Triple H and a John Cena

this was also one of the hardest sets of elites to find for me. between my friend out of town who gets for stuff for me I was only ever able to get the hart dynasty. I never found the DX members that I would still like to get at some point.

Around me, that set was a bit of a mystery. The only place I ever found it was Walmart, and it did sit there for a while. I sold off almost every figure I had from it and would agree that it's a weak set.

jnavo217 Where are you located? I would love to get my hamds on an elite 7 HBK. I missed him when he came out & the prices online, as you noted, are insane. I got Hornswoggle, Triple H & David Hart Smith. Wish I had gotten Kidd when I had the chance, but i really didn't want him @ the time. Don't think I ever even saw HBK. I wouldn't have picked up HHH if I knew i wouldn't be able to find his DX partner.
