The bad news is I have an acute case of bronchitis-probably from staying home w/my daughter, who was sick last week....I finally went to the doctor today.....so as I left the Dr. office-I hit my TRU-which usually gets a truck shipment of new toys every Thursday...so when I got to the wrestling isle, I found this:
It was $24.95....there was also a Rock DM 2, but honestly, I just don't like it...don't like the shirt or the jacket....however this Warrior fig lives up to the hype when you finally see it in person...while I don't love the scan-the attention to detail within this fig is among the best ever. It is instantly in my top 5 figs of all time....however-most everyone has seen this fig by now and knows how great it is-just sayin that it is amazing in person.
I move on to WalMart to get my Z-pack and a couple of other prescriptions filled and while I am waiting, I find this:
This has been a tough fig for me to find personally (BTW, it was on sale for $11.50 as were all of the Elites at WalMart)....I did get the other DX Elite figs from Series 7, but I wanted this fig especially for a fix-up.......but not a DX fix-up, I wanted it for this:
This is a Hogan fix-up I did a long time ago, but never could find a decent helmet to match it until now. The first time I saw this fig-I just knew the helmet would make this complete. I will repaint the helmet green (the DX band does not come off) and add a Hacksaw American flag......and "BAM" I have a great WM VII Hogan.
I will post the final version on the Jakks board when I finish-please check out my freshly-updated classified page......as I added a few cool things and am in need of a Basic 8 or TRU WM Kane.
