Hey all, I thought I'd just drop in with some Elites I got in the mail today including a custom Mattel Elite Sting!
I also got an Elite 14 Booker T which was actually second hand but there are no words to describe how perfect it's condition is in. Pretty much as if it were brand new.
But, I can't say the same for the Elite 2 Batista which was also second hand...a little disappointed with the condition I got it in, in which it had a sort of loose left leg (That would be to your right). Previous owners beat the hell out of it but it's still playable.
I love the articulation on both Booker and Batista. Extremely pleased with the condition I received Booker in, including his accessories.
But let's talk about the figure that stands out here... 'The Icon', Sting. I absolutely love it...It's my first custom buy. Had it delivered within 3 days. The torso may seem small to some but I think it's fine. I love the paint job on it too...Especially the face paint.
What are your thoughts?

Oh man am I jealous. I want that Booker T & can't find him anywhere. And the Sting. I have been a fan of his since the beginning in PowerTeam USA. Very cool receivings my friend. Even the Batista, though I think E6 is his better elite.

I'm getting that Booker off eBay for £12 I was pretty happy and surprised, and thought I might as well grab a bargain. It's loose and is unfortunately missing the scepter, but it looks excellent and I can't wait to get it! Good lot of figures, I hope I find a Batista.

Nice grabs. Booker is a solid figure and that Sting looks great. Is it playable or do you display them?

Nice grabs. Booker is a solid figure and that Sting looks great. Is it playable or do you display them? They're all fully playable, even Stinger. But I shelled out £27 on Sting which is roughly $41. I might just keep Sting on display. Batista I gotta be careful for too. Booker is in beyond perfect condition even for a 2nd hand fig.

Well guys looks like I got a new fig to add to this thread..
It turned up at my front door 45 minutes ago.
Btw, I'm from England and this cost me £42 ($62) altogether.
I do have a reason why I spent this much:
- It costs like around £30 + for Elite 3 or Elite 11 Christian now in the UK. - Hypothetically, If I ever did manage to get my hands on either of those two Christians, I'd end up wanting to do a head swap from Basic 22 Christian. So in the end, I'd be spending at least £40 any ways to get a Christian with the ideal head scan.
This BOPPV Christian was pretty much advantage I suppose seeing as it came with the new IC and had the head scan I wanted.
The main reason this cost so much was because of imports & international delivery all the way from Massachusetts.

I have to admit...that 'Classic IC Title' looks pretty good on Booker too...
