**** UPDATED 8/23/14 **** I get home from getting some meat to grill this afternoon and this had come in the mail : BUT, I hit the jackpot today, while I was at East Gadsden Wal-Mart !! They had JUST put out a fresh case of Elites and Basics, so I snagged these gems right up They had all of E29, but I left Harper & Rowan for these kids that recognized them on TV, plus I didn't really want them anyways. I NEVER get this lucky and catch them stocking the shelves, but they have a new Dept. Manager so at least now I know that they'll be stocking up on Elites because before they didn't have anything except a few Zack Ryder Brawl-n-Buddies and Basics from 5 or 6 series back. But anyways, here's a pic of them all together : **** Original Post 8/22/14 **** I had a sudden kidney stone come up last night, so I had to come back to Gadsden to see my urologist this afternoon. Welp, that's about a perfect time to open up all of my new receivings Firstly, I ordered these off of Ebay and they all showed up in amazing shape ! Now, after seeing the previous Jakks pickup, then you guys that have followed wrestling for as long as I have can tie in this next receiving to that particular gimmick. Poor Bob "Spark Plug" Holly was the jobber to my next pickup, on his debut with the WWF waaayyy back on April Fools Day '96 ! This figure is just amazing ! The pictures that I've already seen of this online do not do it justice at all ! Once you get to see this in person, it's amazing detail really stands out. I was SO WORRIED that this would come all bent up or damaged in some way, but I guess I was one of the few lucky ones, because mine showed up completely MINT This is easily one of the best releases by Mattel to date ! Here's a pic of them all together : I'm glad to have added all of these latest pickups to my collection As always, enjoy and Happy collecting !

I always thought that he should've come with the Tag Team Title belt instead, because that's the only title he held under that gimmick, with the 123 Kid. I know he won it as Hardcore Holly, but it's just a small pet peeve being a MOMC Collector.

With all of the ugly cards that have been reported everyone getting, it was pretty much almost a sure thing that the card would be bent in some way or another, but I'm glad that it showed up mint I hope that you get a mint one too !

Lmfao you didn't even have to explain, I got that, that clip is too hilarious. Even though amazon didn't add anything to protect the figures and CD I purchased, mankind came mint!! I'm so happy haha the other was a tad bit bent, but that's the one to open. I want to eventually get a third one so I can do his Hell in a cell attire , so get on it dude this figure is too fantastic!
