Hey guys. Here are my pick ups for the week.
First off i went to TRU today looking for CSDA. Although i don't like da due to the height i had to get beefcake for that great head scan. I was surprised to see the new AD sets so i picked up this gem!
Most laghable thing form CSDA4 is the sheik. Sad they they didn't release him in the pants he wore later in his careare but he came with a wM 2000 ring skirt. ARe you kidding me! They could have atleasete done wm 17 since he won the gimick battle royal.
Rohds 2pack:
Great set and i couldn't be happier. Great ra debut for cody and nice current style Dusty. Same head scan but i can deal with it. I lvoe the atire. They used the fat manager lower body like on paul bearer. Each come with signatuare single elbow pads. And the bull rope is amazing. Actual rope. the bell and straps are a rubbry type material. Dusty has a painted on single knee pad and they even painted under the knee joing. Dusty has the small arms mold and even has detialed cowboy boogs! OVer all an ace job by jakks.
CSDA Million Dollar Man
Nice fig. The face is a bit weird but it doese capture him duriing hs famous laught. great detail on fit figure. The belt is a brigher gold than the past belts. My only gripes are that the $ on the back is a bit off centered and he's gargantuan b/c he's a da. Came with WM8 logo ring skirt. Another inacuarte ring skirt by jakks as wm8 just had the palne wm logo on black and not the curved 8 logo.
Since seeing the other great post about the fix up. I followed suit to Make Debiassie RA
TNA Kip James
I figured since he was onsale at kb fr 4.99 and i wnated a long hair style billy gun i would pick him up. I also realy wanted that ring bel since i first saw it. Hight is pretty good compared to RA. Love the extra sholder articluation. But the legs are realy hard to play with if you ask me. Talk about crapy paing. When moving the legs white paint was flaking off all over the place. Also they put the knee joint on upside down on the back you can see it. I love the hands for doign a great DX crotch chop!
RA comparison pick
Ring bell: very detailed and the hammer is held on by a little peg so it's also removable! I bit to small tof it in anyones hand well though.
CSDA4 Beefcake
Great fig. Love the new head scan and atire. They remembered the bowtie and even the clippers. They are a slightly brigher red than the original set. I would argue that this is not a "dream team era" beefcake. Since his hair is all deshevled it looks more like an early barber gimick post wm3 version. Cuase when he was in the dream team his hair was slicked back and not all crazy cut. My compliants: 1 it's da so too tall and to beefy, 2 i was looking forward to using this skrit as an event banner. But due to the packagign it was glued to the plastic so part of the logo got torn off! Very dissapointed with atthat.
My pick up of the week. Went to FYE and they had Rocky 2 figs on clearance for 88 Cents!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah so got some figs for annoncers and another REf. you can always use refs.
