Here are some pics of my pick ups from the last month or so!
SummerSlam Heritage
Ted Dibiase
I was hesitant about getting this at first because of the boots, just didn't look right to me, but its been forever since they released a Dibiase so I caved and bought it anyway.
The Undertaker
Again, I REALLY don't know why I bought this figure, maybe it was impulse because at the time of the purchase I hadn't bought anything WWE related in a while, and the excitement of finding Hitman Punk suckered me into buying more than I should have.
Triple H
Man how awesome would this have been as an elite? I saw someone in the fix up thread make an elite version of this and it was sick.
CM Punk
Much like Triple H, this would have been incredible as an elite, but I'm still very happy to be in possession of this great figure! Thanks for listening to us Mattel.
Basic 42 Batista
Probably should have just waited for the Elite since I ended up buying that too, but I was impatient and got this from eBay before my Elite 30 order shipped.
Macho Man Randy Savage "Superstar Entrances"
I was finally able to find this figure at retail, I hated the jeans on it so I refused to pay more than retail price, but once I found it I grabbed it for my Macho collection.
Elite 29
Damien Sandow
Don't care for the headscan, but the updated attire and custom briefcase were the things that roped me into buying this.
Andre the Giant
If this figure were just a re-release of the Matty exclusive I would have passed, but the wig and attire under the singlet once again got me, damn you Mattel!
CM Punk
Really liked the hoodie, and the attire is pretty nice as well, its sad to know this is probably the last CM Punk figure we'll ever get (right?.. don't remember any shown at SDCC)
Goldust
Much like Batista, I jumped the gun and bought the two pack with Goldust & Cody which was regrettable knowing I had E29 on pre-order, oh well!
Erick Rowan
The movement on the elites arms are slightly better than the basic, although still an issue, really love the mask and its cool the rocking chair is a different color.
Luke Harper
Mattel did a great job with Harper just like with his basic my lantern doesn't glow, anyone else have that issue?
RUN.
Elite 30
Batista
The colored tattoos are truly amazing, Mattel did a great job on that, not a fan of the boots, wish Mattel wouldn't have rushed and done a better job of making them look accurate.
Hawk & Animal
Is Animal too big? Perhaps, but I was beyond thrilled to have this version of the LOD in my collection, thank you Mattel for finally making this happen! Only thing that would have made this better would have been a set of classic Tag Titles.
Amazon Exclusive Mankind
Jeez, took long enough for them to release this, but I'm glad it got released. It was worth the wait, very good looking figure!
here are some birthday gifts and other pick ups through out the month!
Ladies & Gentleman, My Name is Paul Heyman blu-ray
this was the best WWE home video release since CM Punk if you ask me, great blu-ray!!
The Walking Dead comic series 3 & Ezekiel (more pics in TWD thread)
Star Wars Black series
X-Men Marvel Legends
Matt Harvey McFarlane
Jesse Pinkman bobblehead
TMNT 1990 Classics & Legacy MMPR Lord Zedd
Power Rangers (Sword of Darkness, Armored Black Ranger figuarts, Green Ranger communicator, plus my MMPR display)
thanks for looking!! won't be getting anything (as far as I know) until my order of B42 El Torito, B44 Kane & E31 Uso's come in from Ringside... still need to get my hands on Lex Luger also, really regret not pre-ordering that!!
