I need your help New York City!

Hey New Yorkers,

I am a native and only collect Diva figures, so don't know as much about find the superstars.

My little cousin (11 years old) from Massachusetts is coming tomorrow to visit with my aunt and other cousins. His birthday just passed, so I want to get him figures.

His correct collection is sad and consist of: Alberto Del Rio, Dolph, CM Punk, Brock Lesnar, Chris Jericho, Cena, Orton, R Truth, Miz, Big Show, Riley, Triple H and Ray.

So far I got hime: AJ Lee, Kelly Kelly Elite, Santino Elite, Christian Elite with Intercontinental Belt, Drew McIntrye and The Rock

I am hoping to find Ryback, Cesaro and Eve tomorrow, but I highly doubt it. I'll check my usual spots (Kmart on Astor Place, Kmart on 34th and Time Sq Toys R us). Any other places I should be looking? Especially those not so well known. I know of the targets in the BX, but don't want to travel that far (though I did get my Alicia Fox there!).

And what other figures do you think would be good for a 11-year-old boy? He really wanted The Rock and Christian, so can't wait to see his face. The divas are fine with him, but me getting them for him is more fulfillment for me, I'm sure! lol

You can't go wrong with Undertaker and Kane - it adds to a collection. This coming from a biased point of view

And I saw Kane today in Kmart (Championship Series). Didnt even think about it! Hopefully he's there tomorrow.

Keep those suggestions coming

Kmart has been stocking up on 2 packs 20 and elite 17. Maybe grab him clay/Hawkins and zack Ryder and Kofi?

I would say he needs a macho and snuka, but thats coming from a 80's collector

FUnny thing is that this store by my house has the Mattel Snuka. I don't think he'll know who he is though

You can also try Century 21. There's also a Toys R Us express in the Manhattan Mall on 34th st. They never have anything but you never know.

may be a good way to get him to learn who some of the legends are. Everybody should watch atleast one snuka match with him flying off the top of the cage.

It might be worth trying Midtown Comics, there are a couple of stores in the city. I find the best one is on Lexington, the corner of 45th Street. It's only a small sign and you have to go up a flight to stairs to find it.

Thanks everyone!

Does Century 21 usually carry WWE figures?

[MrPerfect25]

I never saw figs at Century 21

[Deleted]

I would say Edge, but there's not any current figures of him. Lmao!

[JDP]

Attempt at getting him a Justin Gabriel.


Everyone loves Gabriel, I hope.

He's a smart kid to have Dolph and Punk already. I would pick up a battle pack for him. Prime time players?

People have this idea that the Times Square Toys R Us has everything all the time, but that's not ever the case about 98% of the time. I've had more luck at the Toys R Us in the towns no one has ever heard of than the one in Times Square. It's the most crowded Toys R Us in the world, everything gets cherry-picked immediately. They no joke have about 300 Cenas and Reys on the walls, and more often than not, those are the only guys they have. I will say, there has been maybe two instances I've gone and they are loaded to the gills, and you can pick up about 12 Eves (if she's still considered rare), but that's about a 2% chance.
