I searched the first few pages here, and couldn't find any thread for official Alabama findings/store reports. I figured I'd make one since even if there is one on here, it couldn't have been posted in since last year. So here's the new Alabama Figure Findings/Store Reports Thread. Post away fellow collectors.

Where do you live in Alabama? Hazel Green. It's right near the Tennessee state line, and it's about 15-20 minutes from Huntsville.

Nice to meet you guys. I have the I-59 area covered from Birmingham to Tuscaloosa. Nothing new other than WM Heritage 2 with the posters. I found those in Trussville, but didn't get any. Out of the whole bunch, only 1 Melina. And a couple of the Walmarts in the area are sneaking back up to the $9.88 price on Basics. Still looking out for Elite 8 at retail.

I haven't seen a thread for Alabama in ages, and I, along with many others, need the help with finding figures around here. Thanks, bro! And keep us updated!

Checking in from Birmingham myself. Nothing too new to report here. Here's hoping E8 hits soon as I only need 2 more. 2P9 would be nice also. Also want to take this chance to make sure none of you fellow WFers got blown away by all that tornadic craziness yesterday. Hope everyone is safe.

We got lucky in the fact we did not take a direct hit. The storm itself hit us but we avoided the funnel cloud. When I saw the horror of Tuscaloosa unfold live on tv ,I put the kids in the "safe place" then. About 20 mins before thw storm hit. I then proceeded to pack up ALL my mattelI/Jakks collection and put it in the safe place as well. Lol. I figured why not? I hid the kids safely. Why not take advantage of "first warning radar" and save all I could. Thankfully,it was all precautionary as our house was spared. But man it looks like a demilitarized zone in a lot of parts of town. Kind of like being in a centralized Hurricane Katrina. Its seriously that bad down here. For those of you in northern AL,I have family up there. I know Hunstville,Cullman,Guntersville,Arab,Albertvilile area weren't spared either. Hopefully jonjon and anyone else on here will check in and let us know they're ok. Although a lot of folks are without power right now.

We pulled through alright and didnt suffer damage in Hoover, family in North Alabama is still without power, but no damage and we're all accounted for. Went to Tuscaloosa Thursday to look for friends and try to volunteer. Its a disaster, so very sad. TRU in Hoover has TNA DI4 as of Friday. I picked up Hogan and Abyss. There was one Hardy left, I would have gotten it but it had an odd paint blob/scratch on its lower torso.

I'm not from Alabama, but I heard about the tornadoes. Are you guys ok? First thing I thought of was jonjon. Thanks for lookin' out, bro! Yea, my family is ok from the tornados. I was out getting my tux for prom when the real bad ones hit, so me and my dad got caught together in the middle of one But we made it out. The power at home got cut out and it's been gone since Wednesday night. We've been at my mom's right across the state line in Tennessee since they have power. I know this isn't an Alabama finding, but I went to the Fayetteville Wal-Mart here in Tennessee while I've been here. Here's what I found.. Elite 3 Cody Rhodes (x2) Elite 4 Finlay (x1) Elite 5 Vladimir Kozlov (x1) Elite 5 Chavo Guerrero (x1) Which I got, so there's no more Elite 7 David Hart Smith (x1) Elite 7 John Cena (x4 I believe) I got one, so, if I remember correctly, there should be 3 more still left. Signature Series Triple H (x1) Signature Series Randy Orton (x1) Signature Series John Cena (x1) Basic 6 Drew McIntyre (x1) Basic 8 FInlay (x1) Basic 8 Chris Masters (x1) Two-Packs 7 C.M. Punk/Luke Gallows (x1) I went back a second time, however, I don't remember seeing this the second time. So it may be gone, now. Two-Packs 8 John Cena/Randy Orton (x3) Two-Packs 8 Ted DiBiase/Cody Rhodes (x2) Legends 2 Terry Funk (x2) Legends 2 Iron Shiek (x1) All the Flex Force Smash Scenes Sets (x1) Then there were some other Basics that I can't recall the names of, Flex Force figures, Rumblers, Rumblers Breakdown Brawl Rings, Raw Superstar Rings, and some of the Flex Force Entrance Ring things. Pretty good selection, however, they haven't gotten in Basics past Series 8, Two-Packs past Series 8, or Elites past Series 7. It doesn't look like they've had any Legends past Series 2, however, Series 3 may have sold out over time, and the slim pickings of Shiek and Funk from Series 2 are still there. Hope this helps some of you down here in Tennessee due to the bad weather! Hope everyone is okay!!

TRU in Hoover either restocked early this week or I totally got beat out on Basic 10. All that was left yesterday was 3 Cena, Kofi, and 1 Dolph. I guess I'm gonna have to go online for Barrett, HHH, and Ryder, because this TRU is usually one and done.

I found a whole case of TLC figures on the shelves at Target in McCalla today. I picked up 1 each of Edge, Barrett, and Morrison. There was still a whole set, plus an extra Sheamus, Mysterio, and Cena when I left.

Dear god TLC needs to hit the Trussville location. And yeah I was gonna post about the Hoover TRU and series 10. Foiled out of that HHH again. Sure glad I got Barrett/Ryder online months ago. But I thought Trips would be a little easier to find at retail. Turns out he's 1 per case and just as hard to come by as the 2 debut figures.
