grrrrrrr I have so many guys that could use Paul Bearer right now. I even wrote him Into my storylines but that was almost a year ago.

They should just do away with the BAF wwe line. I mean it's just ridiculous, how many times are they going to put Bryan, Cena, Sheamus, Bigshow, and Punk in these lines? Naturally this creates people's desire to scam. My local TRU had the BAF Ross figures on clearance for 19 dollars. They were marked down because someone took the BAF parts out of the boxes, either they did it in store or someone bought them and returned them. I can't say I blame the scam artists because who in their right mind wanted another Del Rio? Another Orton? Another Punk? The only figure the majority of people would want from that line up is Curtis, which has been impossible to find for many. It certainly doesnt help that Mattel packed him 1 per case.
This next lineup is just as bad, who wants another Bryan? He was just in the Heyman BAF set and E28! Who wants another Cena? He was also just in E28 and the BAF Heymen set! Bray was just in multiple Basic's sets and battle packs, and 3 packs and E28, so of course it made perfect sense to Mattel to put him in a BAF set this soon. The only somewhat "fresh" figure in the set will be UT, but even he was just in E27.
My point is it becomes repetitive, boring, and redundant to buy these. The only incentive for a collector to buy these, aside from being a completionist, is the Corporate Kane. Im getting sick of Mattel forcing me to buy figures I do not want just so that you can get one figure you want. The BAF isnt even a free figure, it ends up costing you slightly less. Elite BAF at my TRU go for 22.99, regular elites go for 19.99. Do the math, im paying 3 dollars extra to get a BAF. So in total I just paid 12 dollars for a BAF figure, it wasnt free. You might say it's still a good deal at that price, WRONG. See im paying 12 dollars for one figure, Mattel just saved money by not giving you any accessories for that BAF elite. Mattel also saved money in not having to assemble the BAF, in not having to package the BAF, and in not having to ship the BAF. So where was the real incentive to buy a BAF? I didnt get anything free. The incentive was all for Mattel. They got you to buy another Cena, and another Bryan, all while selling you a Kane.
Thus I come to my point, just do away with the BAF, release the Corporate Kane/Ross/Heyman/Whoever on their own. I'll buy those figures and I'll be spared the aggravation of having to buy figures I do not want. It's to the point with these BAFs where, I wont lie, I've been tempted to Scam. I havnt, but I can see why people do it.
Luckily that Corporate Kane does not appeal to me so it is an easy pass for me.
In conclusion I'll say the BAF works for Mattel when dealing with DC because DC has a vast line up of characters so they arent releasing Batman in every other BAF set. But for some reason with wwe they seem to only want to make figures of a small select few characters so it grows old real fast and fails.

looking at the numbers they had available in uk. on both bearer/ jr. it can't be doing well. only toys r us (uk) retail it. i would say every shop had about 4/5 sets then never restocked. personally i don't mind the elite set if their are two of the figures with belts and the other two with t-shirts.

I've not seen that many JR sets Seen some Punks, Del Rios, one Irton & no Axels. I hope I run across some more of these before the next BAF hits ... I'm kinda pissed. I found Punk once, nobody else. After hitting several TRU's across months of hunting? Boo

This would be the line with WM30 Bray and Taker, correct?
