Is JYD under a legends contract? Well he's been deceased since 1998 & WWE produced a Classic Superstars figure of him in 2004, so I was almost certain they owned the rights to his likeness. I could be & am most likely wrong. Yes I should've phrased it as "Does Mattel have the rights to JYD" Was he in that legends poll a few years back

I would also like to send a big thank you to the Mods for letting this thread stay here as this is the board for current WWE products.

Hey guys, let's punch him. Scholar & Squid come out the corners. And Squidward starts to retreat. If he keeps flabbin, avoiding Scholar's Jabbin, He'll end up in a RANGSIDE SEAT! He swings with his left, Swings Squidy to the right Look at young Scholar carry the fight. Not to mention Squidy in a spin on his back. Scholar swings'em so fast, he'd give Cesaro a Heart-attack. He tears off his gloves, he kicks & he rants. He's such a foreboding sight, he makes Squiddy ruin his pants! Scholar wrestles like an Alligator, engulfs Squid like the ocean does a Whale. So fast he handcuffed LIGHTnin, thrown THUNDER in JAIL! So Scholar locks in his Toe-Hold like a crocodile's jaws. And Squiddy whimpers "Uncle" like a puppy with broken paws. You don't know how much I enjoyed reading that lol.

That's cool. It'd be even cooler if you made an announcers table out of legos.

I'm aware my projects aren't pretty at the moment. Those were just prototype photos. I always enjoy seeing progress photos, so I assumed others would also.

I officially finished my collection after acquiring all 11 figures in Series 1! My next goal is to buy doubles to repaint, fix up, & customize to create the various fantasy characters I've written over the years.
Pictures coming soon!

Over the weekend I bought a green-tagged Cena from TRU for $1.50. It was the last one that they had. It's too bad that TRU is clearing them out, as I rather enjoyed them.

I was just in K-Mart yesterday, and I saw that they had "gift boxes" of WWE Thumbpers, shaped like cylinders, for $10 each for each pack of four. The INTERESTING part was that not only did these contain the usuals like Cena, Taker, Mysterio, Kane, etc., but they ALSO had previously unreleased ones... Like CM Punk, Hawk & Animal, Brock Lesnar, Miz, Fandango, the Rock, etc.

A Raw ring with Cena and Mysterio, a Smackdown ring with Big Show and Ryback, and a Wrestlemania ring with Undertaker and Kane.
