Got some new pickups thanks to mmondrag96 An ECW Ariel to to add to my Brood collection, right up there with my TTL Gangrel and DA Kevin Thorn. A pair of TTL Litas for my girlfriend, shes a huge Lita mark and these go well with the personalized, signed pic I bought her from Lita a while back And the another major addition to my growing CSDA collection, the Eddy Guerrero/Rey Misterio Halloween Havoc 2-pack, complete with mask and Cruiserweight belt! He made me a killer deal Eddy was a big inspiration to me as a wrestler, not ashamed to say I cried when he died and when I watched the tribute show on Raw, still do even to this day. Just got these today from the Bay, truly a massive pickup, Hardy Boyz CSDA Exclusive!!! Less than 30 bucks, no tall ladder but no biggie, they are in mint condition AND came with tag belts. Im thinking of taking my painted tags off my CSDA Bulldogs and putting them on the Hardys and painting these ones all silver for my Bulldogs

Very nice additions! I love the two Litas and that Eddie/Rey set is awesome! Wish I would have picked it up off RSC when they were on clearance about a year ago

Still cant get over how big that rey is. The attire is awesome no doubt, but thats just an issue of Jakks scale

Still an amazing amount of respect for Eddie, I too have gotten teary eyed when seeing tributes to the man.
I like that ECW Ariel b/c of the corset and skirt, but underneath is that same cracked out bulimia body that they used on too many of the divas. I think it's interesting that the TTL figures had inferior body sculpts except for the Divas which still look pretty darn sexy for a toy.
Anyway, congrats on the pick ups.

Oh yea, I was on that auction like a vulture, eating with one hand, watching the countdown on my phone with another. I put in a crazy maximum bid with less than ten seconds left. I took one shot and nailed it, Sniper Wolf-style heh

I took one shot and nailed it, Sniper Wolf-style heh Nice! I had to stop myself from doing that. I was getting far to drawn in to getting caught up and going to crazy bids. If it gets to 2 mins to go or thereabouts I've got my max bid and that's that. If I lose it in the last 30 secs or so then that's me out!

Ive tried bidding early one, and it seems to send up a flare lol. If the price is low enough by the end I make my move in the closing seconds, especially if theres only a few bids, no one else thinks to set a high maximum their loss is my gain aHA! lol

That's why I go for the high max bid and if it's above then so be it. Although I missed out on a perfect 10 set by not upping my bid after I was the high bidder. Got one in the end though

Nice pickups but has few have said the Rey has scale issues.. that is why it is best to get the RA verisions!

Scale isn't really an issue for me, plus I like the playability of DA figs, I'm still a kid in some ways lol
