So I was poking around some of the threads here last night and I saw someone reference the "Granite Lightning Warrior" fig. "What the he'll is that?" I asked myself. After a few minutes I found some pics of it and, wow. What an awesome fig. It looks frickin great. I managed to find some MOC pics and zoomed in to read the story on the back of the card, also incredible.
What is the story behind it? Why was it made, did Warrior himself request it? His daughter? A contest or something? I couldn't find much information about it at all. I know not many were made, thats about it. Does anybody here have it?

I'm not too sure about the story, but the quote is something Warrior said he lived by, and instilled in his girls. I have read that the figure was cancelled, and there are only a couple of them MOC not sure how true it is. But it does appear to be the rarest of the limited edition exclusives. Here's mine for the hell of it! ; ) Live Strong, Act Bold, Be Brave, Nothing's too hard to do. Do in your life what will live Forever!  |

Thanks for the replies so far, y'all. Wow speaktomewarriors, that's a sick Warrior collection. I assumed you'd have it MOC, then again, it looks awesome loose.

I have all the standard releases MOC and loose, plus the 3 loose exclusives and the 2k14 Exclusive MOC. I have only ever seen one of the Granite Warriors MOC for sale, but too rich for me right now. One day I'd like the 3 MOC too |

I think I read the Granite Warrior didn't get released like the other 1 of 15.

In my two or three years of collecting warrior, I have only seen 1 MOC, and 3-4 "prototypes" go on eBay. A guy had a loose one listed for $2,000 the other day, but it didn't sell. I will say, of all of the warriors, this one is the crown of my collection. I had no idea they didn't release 15 MOC ones.    First off nice pics. Yeah, I think 1 is all I have seen MOC. I just found out a while back it didn't get a release of 15 too.  |

Id pay legit price for a MOC one, but it would be ao hard to prove to me that it wasnt some resealed box.

Collection looks great |
