It's been a very good week of finds for me, considering I live in Canada and the WWE figure drought is seemingly never ending this year.
Hopped over the border and found this guy. I plan on getting Bluetista when it is released in a few months and using parts from both to make a custom (loved the tattoo's on this one, like the accessories and tights on the other, but not liking the blue paint covering all the tats, even if it is accurate to the attire). Always hated that they used this fairly weak scan and didn't put any hair on it (his skin looks really weird as a result) so I added my own (and tried to be as accurate as possible...sorry Big Dave, but you got some serious Male Pattern Baldness happening). It actually looks a lot better...almost tempted to keep this head on him now.
Also found Los Matadores at Walmart in Bellingham, so I snapped them up. Ever since I got my very first LJN Figures (Strike Force) I have been partial to tag teams for some reason, so finding these guys was pretty special, even if they are basically enhancement talent on the show. Then, this morning I stopped by Toy Traders in Langley and found El Torito. So I gots all three.
Should have Lex and the Usos by next week, and then I'm basically all caught up for a while...although...that really is such an empty statement for us collectors isn't it...
Oh, and I found this too while down south....which is sweet as well.
Cheers guys. Gonna spend some time playing WWE 2K14 this evening...even though the version I am really excited about is still 3 weeks away...should be fun playing around with this one for a bit.
