Basic 8 at the last stop of the night. Been stuck in the house ill the past week so I figured why not go out to a couple stores and see what they had. Hit up Meijer and another Walmart first, nothing at all...though I did finally find Basic 4 Goldust after buying Elite Goldie a month ago...FML...
Anyways, went across town to another Walmart to see if they were still open, luckily they were. For a second I thought I was out of luck until I saw Christian who had a cheesy headscan by the way. I love his Elite figure, no way I'd pick up this one. I'll get a double of him when Heath Slater shows up in stores.
Kane is AWESOME. I have yet to buy a double of anyone but I considered it just because of how cool he was.
Ended up getting the only Maryse they have and Chris Masters. Now before you say "no pics, no proof" first, this isn't a "look what I got" thread as much as it is a conversation thread. Here's why:
Chris Masters is probably at the moment my favorite figure to date. I'm not fully sure why but I'm a faithful guy and I dig the cross tatt on his arm..the figure's joints work perfectly. As many on here know, sometimes we get unlucky with our figures. And his build is perfect. He looks like...well, a Masterpiece. Plus I've become a fan of his on T.V. bravo to Mattel on this fig. What do you guys think of him?
And on to Maryse. I think this figure is horrid. I think it's the worst Diva to come out so far and it does the beautiful Maryse no justice at all. She's one of my favorite divas on T.V. right now, and from pics of her, I was excited to get this fig. Now that I hold it in my hand, the scan is well...ugly. And what's with the Divas chest size? Now, I'm not some perv who likes feeling up his toys or anything but...
These women pay a lot of money for their enhancement work, the least Mattel could do is respect that enough to endorse it in their figures. I will say this though, minus the bust size ( a problem ALL Divas seem to have, but from pics they may be fixing with Natalya) and the horrid face scan...the figure is the best Diva's figure I have. No loose joints, no bends on any of the body parts. Mattel seems that they may be upping their QC starting with this Series.
Tomorrow, I'm off to find DM Macho Man, the Punk/Gallows 2 pack, and Warrior and The Rock and I'll be officially caught up on everyone I want except the Legends line. Wish me luck on my hunt!
