Been collecting for many years, and this truly is my holy grail, may not be for others right now, but it will be, not a huge variant collector and honestly not even a moc collector, but this is the exception š

I might be in the minority here, but the goatee on that head, in particular, looks so goofy to me. I know the idea is to tilt toward a more accurate representation of when he has the mask on, but that particular expression to me is just signature, bald, clean shaven Kane. From certain angles, it almost looks like Austin if he were a little thicker in the jowls, like he just got his wisdom teeth done or something.
Good find if you're happy with it, though. It's always cool to come across something you've been after. I kinda got the same rush when I found my regular issue Kane, especially after Wal-Mart cancelled my original pre-order.

I can't unsee Austin in that face now.

I'm a big Pats fan, and even when he was just "rumored", and even at the render stage, I figured there was no reason I'd ever need a Gronk WWE figure. Then the actual thing was revealed, and it was just so ungodly stupid that it made me laugh every time I looked at it, and I had to have it. I wound up buying two, just because I knew my best friend would have the same reaction when his arrived in the mail, sight unseen.

Iām a big Kane collector and pretty much buy anything classic Kane related, this figure is tough enough to find non variant, just happy to own it

The thing is, at this point I don't think people know for sure how rare this really is, or if it's more common than people think. That being said, this very well could be a holy grail in a year or two when it'salmost impossible to find anywhere. Almost reminds me of the Hasbro Kamala with the moon belly.
Mind if I ask what state you got this in? I heard they were mainly being found in the Wisconsin area..

Mind if I ask what state you got this in? I heard they were mainly being found in the Wisconsin area.. When I seen this the first thing that came to my head was the moon belly lol I donāt think it will be that rare but Iām expecting it to be pretty sought after soon, Iāve seen them show up in lots of areas, some in California and maybe 4 or 5 other states, this one was found in Washington, Iām hoping to at least get 2 more š so if anyone has anymore Iād be happy to work a deal

I look through every display I come across to find one of these. Doubt I will, but it's kind of fun.

This might be one of the only figures down the line to be rarer then Harley race.

Race will defiantly be hard to top in price, but rarer should equal worth more, but like I said hard to top races value My question is whatās the deal with this figure? is this a 2nd wave variant? If so why is it being shipped with the first wave and in such small quantities and only in some places? I have too many questions about this figure but glad I got it

This might be one of the only figures down the line to be rarer then Harley race. Yeah, thatās one of the reasons why I just caved in and bought him for $42 now vs having to give my left kidney for the fourth time for one in the future.

If so why is it being shipped with the first wave and in such small quantities and only in some places? I have too many questions about this figure but glad I got it IMO itās more about why/how itās rare. Like, this Kane figure is only a secondary head that comes with the figure that isnāt the main selling point of the figure. Harley Race, the entirety of the figure is what people want. Thatās how I look it. Hundreds of dollars, hypothetically, for a painted on goatee sounds wildly insane to me.
