FOR THE LAST TIME , a superstar has many defining moments in his career... anyone who says WrestleMania 7 wasn't a defining moment in the career of both Macho Man and Warrior is either too young to truly recall the events leading up to the story, or inept when dealing with professional wrestling as a business.. dont forget that Elizabeth / Randy emotions that exploded at WM7 in 1991 began on WWF TV in 1985.... i dare todays industry to give us a story with characters that evolves slowly..like JR always says ..its the slow burn that earns the interest and $$$... did fandango and summer have to break up that soon... you might respond they both are not important, but they would be if they just slowly kept on building...
anyway that HULK figure is AWESOME.. i would have prefered a 89-90 look with bandana and HULK RULES or Python Power Shirt.. BUT the body mold is soo perfect for HIM and the face scan is crazy good... the chain looks perfect and that headband does remind me of HULK HOGAN walkin down the aisle in 87 with rent-a-cops crowding him and every fans hand stretched out toward him!!
this will look great posed face off with ANDRE or i might take shirt and headband & chain off , place the winged eagle on him and pose him face to face with WM6 Warrior...
my other sdcc thoughts commments rants:
really looking forward to that BASIC ANDRE THE GIANT that comes with SHOW, u heard mattel mention he has new face with the side burns, so it should look better maybe a navy singlet maybe black, dont care... as long as his face scan is better than previous figure and i think his body would look better in basic form..
WOW da Bad Guy... oooozing Machismo, " hey something happens to this Gold chico, something gunna happen to you!".. RAZOR RAMON.. awesome gear choice... NEEDS intercontinental belt, maybe ladder, DEF BELT and with vest gold chains good detail like correct elbow pads and body hair he will be a MUST BUY for my LEGENDS to pose... he would look great if i could find something in arts & crafts store to replicate that gold firework/sparkler behind him goin up in air & fallin down...!!!
STING.. cool respect, but i couldn't care for it... i was only a fan of 89-93 STINGER..
looking forward to seeing what 1997 HBK we will get in that battle pack with Undertaker.. DAMNIT...why, would have been perfect time to make a 97 TAKER.. oh well... MATTEL GIVE HBK KNEE PADS.. he did have a match at inUrHouse month before their HellinaCell, forgot what he wore there...any1 have a pic of it?...i would prefer the KOTR 97 gear with "candy stripes".. would have said DEC 97 inurhouse green DX broken heart logo but we got WM14 which was same logo but red tights..
WHAT HBK DO YOU GUYS WANNA SEE???
i didnt understand the talk of wm3 based DM HULK being associated with ROyal Rumble, Razor w/ WM, Sting w/ summerslam..
can some1 explain the connection to the ppvs or do they plan on launching EACH DM the day of that PPV ( SPECIAL EVENT!)
FINALLY any1 who has read my posts and rants knows how bad i wanted a ROYAL RUMBLE 91 ULTIMATE WARRIOR... and we are getting it soooner than later..i'll offer my cena to GRIM so he can mutilate it... not mad its a basic, i like the ripped upper body basic look... wish this came with a purple strapped winged eagle.. the flag will go in my drawer.... i plan on posing this with sherri on her knees beggin like
X-pac Looks cool, will get him and cool that he comes with Euro....
JYD... sorry as a kid i wasn't interested in him, i knew he was a fun babyface but his in ring work was what i call " VERY DINO BRAVO"...so boring, so weak, so fake... i respect his earlier career more, whish i could put one more dog collar on his accessory so i could pose some of the best Dog Collar Matches ( piper/ valentine)
i noticed that new box set with basics incl. purple trunks Macho, Green Trunks WARRIOR.. could any1 tell me who else was in there and what gear and if Randy is a re-release from that battle punk, and warrior from the basic wave champions..
overall i will be buying WARRIOR/CENA BATTLE PACK for my FAV WARRIOR ATTIRE EVER!! RR91
DM HULK HOGAN
DM RAZOR RAMON
HBK vs Taker battle pack for 97 HBK mad its current taker
surprised no new Macho Man 92, or wm13 Bret pink on black, or a good AUSTIN with shorts and WHAT shirt...
and we need a BAF BOBBY HEENAN...or in some other way..WE NEED HIM... i know mattel worries sales will be low since he last appeared but on wwe tv in 93 minus WM17 and HOF.... but he helped sell out the Silver Dome..
oh yea i like that white tights steamboat, and the basic mankind ( FOLEY) gives us another chance to get him since his elite is wayy over priced...
still hoping for a long hair RICK RUDE, BRUTUS BEEFCAKE, MORE TEAMS LIKE HARTS, 90 rockers, a 92 heel HBK...
fav sdcc item... seriously stuck between HULK, RAZOR, and RR91 WARRIOR... prob HULK HOGAN.. but happier for WARRIOR CAUSE I KNOW ITS COMING SOONER.... oh maybe posing macho king rsc exlc. smashing him over head with his royal sceptor would look cool...
what say you?
