Okay so when I got off on Saturday, I stopped into TRU to see if they had anything different than the last few weeks of a handful of random basics, a few Elite 6 guys, and a few basic 2 packs. They did, shockingly. They had a DM2 Ultimate Warrior, which was on my wants list since it was revealed. But I didn't have the money to get him then and there or I would have. And they didn't have signage up then for the "Spend $25, Get A Free Legends 2 Pack" deal, but Monday they did. I didn't even remember about the deal starting up, so I was definitely surprised when I went in on Monday and saw the signage, and I remembered hearing about the deal. So for the $25 purchase, I grabbed the DM2 Ultimate Warrior since he was still there....

...and since I didn't have any of the 3 sets yet, I had my choice of any. So for my free Legends 2 pack, I got the "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and "Cowboy" Bob Orton 2 pack. I decided on this one because I like Piper, he's one of my favorites, and since I already had Legends 4 Paul Orndorff, I got this one so I could have the complete heel team from the WM1 Main Event.
Both guys
Roddy Piper
RP on Piper's boot. Same on the other.
Piper's kilt and belt. Nice to see the belt is a separate piece and not attached to the kilt.
Bob Orton
"ACE" on Orton's boot. Same on the other.
Orton's vest and hat. I like the frilled ends of his vest. That's attention to detail.
...and yesterday, I decided that I'd take advantage of the deal again, and I grabbed another DM1 Macho Man for the $25 purchase. I had one already, but I decided to grab this 2nd one to leave MIB and put him on display.
DM1 Macho Man
...and this time, for my free Legends 2 pack, I decided on the true tag team, The Bushwhackers. I never got their Jakks counterparts, so this was my best choice since I never had them before. Actually, I had the Hasbro versions but those are long gone, LoL.
Both guys
Bushwhacker Butch
Bushwhacker Luke
...and today. Wait....WAIT! That.....THAT'S GOTTA BE KANE!! THAT'S GOTTA BE KANE!!! ;D My order from RSC came today, and it was the RSC exclusive Kane figure. And my, what a great figure it is. Micro has set the bar WAY TOO HIGH for pics of this guy, so I'll just show what I could do with my iPhone.
Kane
Close up of the top
Straps on the right leg
Scan unmasked. Same as the Basic headscan. Glad for that. I don't like the original Elite headscan.
The mask
The hair. You can, if you look closely at the pic, see the mask straps running through the hair. That's great detail.
Unmasked with the towel
Unmasked, with towel and chains around arms, legs, and waist.
