Everyone's been doing threads about their E39 preorders coming in, and I'm proud to say my flashbacks have come. 
At first I thought that Sid was going to be somewhat of a disappointment, but I'll be honest, aside from the lack of a Winged Eagle belt, he's spot on. Godfather and Bulldog are perfect as far as I'm concerned. All in all, I'm happy that I don't have to hunt for these guys at retail, but I'll surely pick up Ziggler despite the shirt botch. |

It's very nice to get so many flashbacks at once.
E38-e40 is amazing and then the HOF series will be out soon after.
It's such a feel good time of year.
I got those three flashbacks yesterday.
Godfather and bulldog are spectacular.
Sid is ok. The smile alone makes the figure go from a 9/10 down to a 7/10 imo

I actually don't mind the smile. I would have preferred a more neutral scan, but it grew on me. Plus it does look like him.

I was hoping for a serious kind of angry Sid scan but hey, it's still far better than Jakks Sid sculpt so no complaints from me
I'm not crazy about bulldogs head but what can you do

Great pickups. Even with minor flaws, I'm still excited for Sid and Bulldog.

Having just unboxed these guys, they exceeded my expectations, especially Bulldog and his cape. I thought it'd be a situation with a solid steel plastic cape, but instead it can be posed with aside from having his arms out.
Godfather is beautiful, and all he needs is a gaggle of hos but alas, I have no diva figures. (Ba dum tish) Sid is magnificent, even if I would have preferred a scan similar to the pic on the side of the box, if not that psychotic grimace on the back. I'll give you guys some action shots in a bit. All in all money well spent and I'm looking forward to E40.

All 3 turned out great. Awesome wave of figures here. Very colorful.

Are Sid and bulldogs skin tone the same? I'm thinking about giving bulldog SIDS torso I want to say yes, but Bulldog might be a little lighter. On first inspection though, it's pretty much a match, but like I said, Bulldog looks somewhat lighter, but it might be a case of lighting. For a simple kitbashing job, I think it'll work, but then again, I've never customized (Though I will try my hand at Hollywood Hogan soon once I get the necessary parts) so take my advice with a grain of salt. |

Anytime buddy. I know a common criticism with Bulldog was his build, and while I'm not a stickler for builds, I figured some folks would mod their Bulldog to their liking.
Like I said, I'm not a big customizer, but I might start with making Hollywood Hogan to go with my slowly but surely expanding NWO collection, but that's another topic for another thread.

I've learned to preorder whichever figures I really want because, while the price is a little higher than retail factoring in shipping, I barely see any in retail to begin with and I'm not one to feed the scalpers, especially since I live in a pretty scalper/collector heavy area. It's worth it in the long run to just order online, though finding stuff on a toy hunt is an indescribable feeling. That's how I plan on getting Malenko, unless I find a good deal on eBay or during RSC's Halloween sale.

Yay little boxes! I think all the toys that have recently downsized to small packages look fantastic. WWE boxes were always so wasteful in the past. Admittedly too, the Sid figure looks a sight better as finished products.
