Swung by TRU tonight and was pleasantly surprised with E36 sitting on the pegs along with some random X-Pacs and Paige's. Picked up Bo Dallas, Dean Ambrose, Goldust, and Stardust. Have no use for a 2nd Bray or DDP since I have his first release. I must say that they look good MOC but Mattel needs to stop posing them in the box. I don't usually have a problem with warped legs but Dean, Stardust, and Goldust are pretty warped but I'll fix them tomorrow. I really wish the would just pack them in basic carding posed straight. Bo Dallas Very simple figure but done really well. I like the cloth shirt but I have no need for it. Dean Ambrose Face scan is awesome in person but the hair is done terribly. I really like the vest and cane. I might pick up a 2nd to make a nWo Eric Bischoff. Goldust Kick ass attire, kick ass face paint, and kick ass jacket. Love the detail all around. No complaints with this figure at all. Stardust The gem of the set. Perfect scan and attire choice. 2 tag titles is a nice addition too.

Great news, thanks for the heads up buddy! Just need Bo and Goldie since I got dean and stardust from rsc. Just a note about dean...I fixed mine up by carefully painting in where the deco shot missed and it's miles better.

Awesome finds... but damn. $21.99 + tax...
That's reaching almost $25 for a single figure... I can get a full tank of gas and a dinner for 2 at that. Ugh...

That's where I found mine today too. I didn't find any Dean though, but they also had Pac and Paige.

I usually find most of my elites at Target so I didn't realize TRU raised the price again. I'm patient enough to wait til figures hit retail but I'm too impatient to wait when I see them in a store. Haha. Cost me $105 for the 4 figures and a Transformer for my son.

Toysrus near me (indiana) had them today as well. didn't get any because I already received my order from Amazon,stardust and 2 DDP's. All boxes were mint too like always. I mostly just order off amazon anymore mostly just because it saves so much time effort and money.

See what you mean with the warpage on Dean's legs. I really don't get what they were going for with the pose they placed for him in the package. It looks like an old Toybiz marvel Legend. Those things were always posed with all the joints in mid-air flexes, however they actuallybhad a good reason as "super-articulation" was new and not the standard. It was to show off essentially.

Damn where do you live that you can get a full tabk of gas and dinner for two for under 25? More importantly what car are you driving and where are you eating? Ha On topic...I hate DA's hair. I think I'm only picking up DDP from this set.

I think I'm only picking up DDP from this set. Well... gas is a little over 2 bucks a gallon in NJ. I stand corrected- maybe not now, but a few months ago I was able to fill up for 24 bucks... Dinner? I've gone out with friends and we could get a few apps, or a burger each, drinks and even a dessert for under 25 bucks at different restaurants... And of course, I meant $25 for each thing... not for both of course.

Such an awesome set! Bummer about Ambrose's hair... Hopefully when I find these ill find a good one lol They're all pretty much the same from what I've seen. What makes it so odd, when you look at the figure up close, is that the paint mask doesn't match the sculpt, so you've got strands of sculpted hair that were left unpainted. The MDT must not have liked the way the pre-production samples looked and intentionally had the paint mask changed. It looks just fine from arm's length though, so it's not a dealbreaker for me. It will be interesting to see how the upcoming basics that use the same sculpt turn out.
