I picked up King Booker T from the HoF set finally and it got me to thinking: Has he had a bad figure? Not if you ask me.
Elite 14, Basic 22, BOPPV BAF, Basic 48, Elite 46, and HoF 4. All great scans and attires. Also, 4 headscans to 6 figures is a pretty diverse ratio.
I would be close to inclined to say Kane has all perfect releases, but the reissue of Corporate Kane with the flesh colored glove hand and Elite 31 and 47b have the wrong masks. The number of re-releases also bugs me with him but he has some consistently killer figures.
Who do you think has had no bad releases yet?

Booker has had some great figures yes. I really like Harlem Heat and King Booker elite figures quite a bit. I hope we get a. Harlem Heat Battlepack in black or blue

My issue with Booker is that until Harlem Heat they have never made an elite figure that I wanted. King Booker was entertaining but never wanted it and definitely do not think that character warrants two different releases. No desire for GM/Announcer Booker either. I'd buy a WCW TV Champ or a 5 x WCW Champion Booker in a second. If I see HOF Booker, I will leave him on the shelf just like I did every time I saw E14.
**Side note** A DM of Booker on Raw 7/30/01 when he won his 5th title with five Big Gold Belts would be visually appealing.

Agreed.
I feel like every Balor has been on point, I'm not a HUGE fan of him, but i do have all of his elites and they're all ridiculously perfect.

I only have HoF 4 Booker and he's a great figure, but I too would love a 2001 elite Booker myself. For the time, King Booker will suffice.

Man that DM idea is awesome. I'd buy multiples just because. |

That's how I feel. I have no need for anything after his WCW run, but I would probably buy an NWO Booker. I would love a blue Harlem Heat maybe in a two pack if/when Stevie Ray is inducted in the HOF and then a battle pack of them in black as well would be awesome. |

I never cared for Booker T. If I wanted any Booker T, just the invasion angle. The whole King Booker act was cartoony and it threw 3 WCW guys together. What else did the King and his court have in common?

Has there ever been a time when more companies have been making wrestling figures at the same time?

As of right now, I would say that there have been no bad releases of Finn Balor.

I agree. I have all his mattel figures except for the BAF and they capture his likeness. I wasn't a huge fan of his king gimmick but Mattel nailed this design so much that I had to pick up his first elite figure for being such a kick ass looking figure. It was an over the top, loud, cartoony gimmick and I feel like it fits well with other flashbacks of the same nature. I have King Booker proudly displayed with my other flashback figures.

I wish I could pick from many examples but it seems like there's always a bad one unless there's only one and it's good.
I only like e46 booker

I feel like all of the Stone Cold Steve Austins have been pretty good. They aren't very different or exciting but none of them are outright bad.
