has anyone found elite adam rose in stores? i noticed on walmarts website he isnt listed There is one in my pic flipped upside down. Figure is good but the head is pretty bad IMO. His Basic is much better. you don't like the head? I love it! I think when I find it I'm going to paint his lips. I think it will help the scan a bit.

I compared heads. i prefer the basic face but the hair kills it for me. On a side note - I just purchased my tix for smash's anniversary show. unfortunately they only had third row left. hopefully i dont feel stupid for spending the extra few bucks because it really makes no difference where you are in there. last time the "wrestler in the ring" pic that comes with the vip ticket was actually a pic with jimmy korderas by the the entranceway, so I'm hoping this time its actually with drago or pentagon because theres not much room in that little hallway for a good shot.

Had one of those interesting hunting days... I haven't been too motivated to get out and look for stuff lately as I am all caught up for now (with my last purchase being E37 Rollins a few weeks ago). But decided to stop in at TRU this afternoon as I had some time to kill. And I found these little treasures...which weren't really on my list, but grabbed anyway. Love the Booker scan, and since I had a $5 off coupon I figured why not (hadn't personally seen this set in Canada yet). He looks a lot closer to a late WCW Booker than the King Booker figure I had standing in the WCW section, so I'm happy. And then as I'm walking past the clearance table I spotted the Taker figure. Don't really need another Taker, but since he was only $5 figured I couldn't really lose. Even still had the BAF Corporate Kane head in there. The tag said "Broken Hand", and here is where it gets a little weird. The hands were not broken, but they are clearly basic hands and therefor pretty loose. Would this have been someone switching the hands and returning it? That makes no sense to me. Or was it how the figure came/an error? Either way, got both of them for $15 plus tax. Seems decent to me. Which tru has that taker? Do u knoe where theres more?

I think when I find it I'm going to paint his lips. I think it will help the scan a bit. The Elite head with the glasses looks perfect but without, the face just seems off. I never thought about painting his lips before. If you do it would you mind posting some pics?

Forgot to mention that I went to the Mattel outlet in Mississauga on Saturday. Complete crap. Had some flex force and that gorilla cage thing.
Also booked my flight to wrestlemania this morning. Hotel was already booked. Now just need mania, axxess , and hof tickets which I'll grab as they become available.

Went to TRU in Vaughn Mills and they had nothing new. I decided not to go into Toys x3 because if I found something it would have been over priced.

Thanks to JHTB for the tip! Just picked up the only Faarooq & the only Bradshaw from Walmart at Steeles & Markham. Left behind at least 1 of the rest of Elite 38 (incl. Macho Man).
BTW, also saw a B50(?) Sami Zayn but passed on it. Happy hunting!

Found E38 at South Edmonton Common Walmart. Only really wanted Savage but I nabbed Reigns too for the sake of my display. Lol. Anyways, there's 2 Bryan's, a Reigns, Rose, Bradshaw and Farooq still there.

It's a shame that i wasn't able to find anything new at TRU the past couple of days while all the WWE figures were on sale. I bet there will be a cases of DM Stings appearing this week.
