Guys, new member. I've been lurking as a guest for a bit now.
I got one of the DM Hogan's last week on first day of Target sale (Thurs) at Queenstown Rd Target in Hamilton, there were 6 more at the time, hadn't bought a new figure since LJN days as a kid in 80's! This figure IS my version of Hogan takes me back to being 8, love the title belt!
Anyway, I decided I wanted another so I could keep one in pkg and open the other, went back to the target last Sat and all the Hogan's were gone.
I work all over and found some at the Heartland WM in Mississauga yesterday, as I was working next door, so I got one. Didn't like spending $29.99 vs $23 but figured it could be my last chance seeing them.
Has anyone else noticed that the WM version has an annoying "NEW" sticker right on the front of the bubble? I think it's a huge detractor for their version.
Went to the Target in Ancaster today and found 3 more so I bought 2. Funny thing is, they weren't with the other wrestling toys, but rather in the Marvel section in a different aisle.
Will likely be returning the WM version with the ugly sticker on the front now.
Hope to post more from time to time

The Warden and Eglinton Wal-Mart had the elite tag at $24.97, but they didn't have any actual Elite figures. I looked at the date on the tag and it said "1/21/2015".. makes me wonder if they've been out since then. I plan to go hunting out west on Saturday, hopefully I find some.

@86belt Welcome to the boards! ARUN That sucks! I think most stores should have Elites out next Tuesday, cuz I think that's when they put out new shipments, right? It seems like that what they did this week...

Thanks for the welcome to the board guys!
I mainly used to look on here to see upcoming autograph signings, but that DM Hogan hooked me in!
I'll let you know if I see anything of interest when I'm in stores.
FYI there were two Batista elites at the Ancaster Target when I was there yesterday as well (sorry don't know the series) but one had him backwards in pkg to show his detailed back tattoos.
I think the key with Target now is to walk the entire dept and area, as there's no structure as to where they may have particular things.

Signage for Elites just went on the shelf at Walmart here. I'm stoked! Gonna check back tomorrow to see if they have.

www.target.ca/en/support/returns/"Returns on purchases made prior to February 5, 2015 will be accepted in accordance with Target's policies in effect at the time of purchase." Just found that today in case anyone was interested in returning anything then buying it cheaper.

I tried calling two Walmarts near me here in Vancouver asking about the DM Hogan and neither store had any clue what I was asking for. One customer service woman said she had one left in stock and went to go check. When she came back, she said "We only have one left. Captain America." To which I replied: "But I was asking for a WWE wrestling figure named Hul-" "No, only Captain America ok?"
I then proceeded to hang up.
GG Walmart staff for being so useless. Try hiring people that understand basic English and maybe have a tiny understanding of what products you carry and you'd be leaps and bounds better than you currently are. Sheesh.
The hunt for DM Hogan continues..

The hunt for DM Hogan continues.. too much hunting you guys.. i woulda shipped you one for cost + shipping.. probably woulda been like $15-17 to ship.. but probably worth paying that instead if hunting around wasting time and gas for one lol
