[The Dave]

The TRU near me seems to be well stocked on these. Well, not so much anymore. Found two more complete sets today.

It didn't when I was there on Thursday

Thanks HNH and Scott for the heads up on E29, still some Andres and Sandows at Metro.

^ Nice! I haven't seen Erick Rowan at retail yet. He is probably the hardest to find out of the set. Thank go I ordered him off of Amazon!

I was very fortunate in that I was able to pick from a freshly cracked case which figures I wanted. But I tell you, both Harper and Rowan are must-own figures. Mattel absolutely nailed them both. Not only are they properly in scale, but their accessories make them must-haves in my opinion.

Yeah just be persistent with your TRU's. I had to ask three different people at Metrotown TRU if they had more of E29 (all that was on the pegs were one Sandow and one Andre). After three people told me "that's all we have", as I was walking out of the store, I noticed an open Mattel WWE case at customer service with a raincheque of mine on top with all of E29 inside. I guess someone found a case in the back and was going to contact me to come back which I thought was really cool.

I attended the Destiny show at Santino's gym today to get Colt Cabana and Colin Delaney in my encyclopedia. A few days ago, I looked through some PWI magazines to see if I could find any pictures of Cody Deaner. I was able to find two, and so I brought them along so I could get them signed as well.

Did some figure hunting first, but I'll save those till the end. We arrived at the gym at around 4:40. Some of the wrestlers were there signing autographs towards the back. Cody Deaner and Colt Cabana were already there signing and selling their merch, but Colin Delaney was not. Colt Cabana had a line-up, so I went for Cody Deaner first. I showed him the magazines and he said that he never knew his pictures were in them. I told him that it was nice to meet him again and he said "you too, brother!" I mentioned that I first met him at the Oshweken show back in the summer with Rhyno and he responded, "oh yeah! I sat beside you and you had the belt!" It was pretty cool that he remembered me! He signed my stuff, and posed for a picture all for free. I thanked him and he thanked me, then I moved on to Colt.



Colt still had a line-up. Maybe 10 people in front of me, but when I got up to him, he was really nice. He was charging $5 for autographs, which I paid. I didn't really speak to Colt that much, but he was really nice though.. just didn't have anything to say. His merch pricing was also pretty funny.





After I met Colt, I found a seat, hoping that I'd get Colin Delaney at intermission. I was wrong. At intermission, he still didn't come out and sign autographs, so I asked one of the workers there, and apparently, Colin didn't cross the boarder. Oh well. I left after I found that out because I was only there for autographs.


As for my pickups, not much luck at Value Villages, just one VHS tape at the four I went to:



Picked these up at Dollarama:



Picked up Drew at Wal-Mart, and Rey at a Goodwill:



Picked these up at the Mattel Outlet for $6 each:



That's it for today!

^ Great stuff! Lol Punk questions for $500

[Mr. PerpetuaLynch Motion]

My RSC Punk came in yesterday and the Seinfeld complete series box set that I grabbed from Futureshop.ca came in on Friday but I forgot to post about them. Happy days though.

Went to the wal mart at agincourt mall. They had 4 basic Torito figures!! I have him moc but grabbed another to open up. Can't go wrong, especially with the ten dollar sale. If anyone needs him, there were still 3 left as of this morning.

Who's planning on goin' to the Chris Jericho signing at Woodbridge Heroes on Sunday?? I'm pretty sure me and my buddy are going. He wants to get his Undisputed replica belt signed and I will probably just get my WrestleMania X8 magazine signed.

Hey man. Are outside items allowed to get signed??

[Mr. Old School™]

He told me he contacted them and they said yes about bringing your own items to get signed.

[yeetman13]

^ interesting.. they must have changed it then. When i asked them about it during the Dream Team signing they said nope....but still.. $75 for Jericho's autograph is really pricey..considering u do not get the book with it, or an autograph in the book...

Elite 32 has landed at Toy Traders in Langley out here in BC. They have multiples of everyone (and thanks to the Superstore $5 coupon we can snap up the figs for under $20.



Just D-Bryan for me. It was tough to find one without paint defects (hating that they are painting his face instead of his hair/beard). This one was the best, but does have some defects on his kneepad. Adding the shirt helps with the noticeable difference in skin tone between face and body.



Love the scan, wish the tone matched better. Looks great in my current roster.

Love that I managed to get the jumpsuit to fit Rowan as well. From the moment I saw the Rowan figure I disliked that they didn't do a cloth jumpsuit. Then, when I saw this Bryan figure I was hoping it would fit, and it did. Pretty sweet that his new suit on the show is almost EXACTLY this color. Was a little tough to get it on (was pretty worried that I was going to wreck it to be honest), but I think it looks decent.


That's it from out here in the WEST!!
