Congrats man! I was asking for this aswell but was way out of my league. I was really hoping for a cheap recaster to get this and offer some even cheaper copies for a few hundreds a piece. Anyway... Enjoy it! Is this the broken one? Has the arm been fixed?

Whoa! Congrats man! Any idea on how many of these exist? The first one to go up for sale years ago (the one that sold for $13K) that one was a Protomold, basically a test shot non-resin. This one was originally owned by Zack Ryder, it was the one with the damaged arm (which I fixed) and he is pretty beat up, but still damn cool. My friend spoke to Ron Rudat, one of the main designers at Hasbro yesterday, and he said that this Greg is the one that matches the 2-UP and he'd bet that it's a First Test Shot from Asia, so the Employees at Hasbro could see how everything fits. Speaking of the 2-UP, Zack Ryder has the only one in existence along with the only existing Resin Greg from the Toys 'R Us Ad, so as far as current tally goes: (1) Hand Painted Resin 2-UP (1) Hand Painted Resin 1-UP (2) Protomolds/Hand Painted Test Shots 1-UP's

Enjoy it! Is this the broken one? Has the arm been fixed? Yes, this one was the one with the broken arm. Right now, I just have a bit of non-hardening modeling clay to hold it in place while I find a proper pin that will hold it and make the arm movable at the same time.

Why not use a pin from an orgiginal Greg Valentine or the newer WWE Retro Steve Austin body? Any other figure that use the same move such as Anvil and Knobbs should work aswell. The Hasbro pin has the advantage of being more "authentic". The Mattel one however might be a little more flexible amd therefore better on second thought. Of course you can always just throw it away. Just a broken figure.
