Going back to in hand, limited releases pretty much ends my interest as well. I don't have time or the desire to sit and wait, checking and rechecking, then battle the inevitable flood of flippers and website issues. But, that's alright I suppose. My cases are already full and I don't know how I'd find room for another one anyway... What cases are these, they look great. They're actually LEGO Mini Figure display cases I found on etsy. They came with a stud board on back and I added the 'shelves' myself. These particular one have a hinged front, so it's super easy to load and rearrange if needed. I love them. Only drawbakc is the figures on the bottom shelf do fit a little tight, but not so much that theyre squiahed. Wanna say I paid about $25 each, but that was quite some time ago, so don't know how much they'd go for these days.

I wonder why Rampage was aired tonight & not on Friday NCAA tournament I think. Same reason there's no Collision thus week.

Rock is 1,000,000% turning on Roman at WrestleMania. No doubt about it.

The Streak should NEVER have been broken. It was the wrong decision then and it still proves to have been the wrong decision. What's worse is that absolutely no one benefited from breaking the streak. It was done purely for momentary shock value. Brock Lesnar sure as he'll didn't need the accolade. The entire mystique of facing The Undertaker at WrestleMani was erased. And the aftermath reaction from fans was overwhelmingly negative. It was a bad decision done with zero foresight.

I feel like there used to be bigger cards There absolutely were. Triple H fielded a question about that during a post even press conference last year (i forget which one). Less amount and higher quality matches is a deliberate decision by Triple H and the current creative team to make PLEs feel like bigger deals and afford RAW and SmackDown more opportunities for important matches.

Does anyone have experience with Funko customer service? I received a "Pop Yourself" as a gift, but was sent someone else's custom Pop instead of mine. The person who bought the Pop for me is having an awful time getting a hold of customer service as Funko hasn't yet responded to an inquiry sent about a week ago and there doesn't appear to be a support number listed. I feel pretty bad for the person who bought me the figure as well as the person whose custom Pop was sent to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I recently had an issue with Funko where my package never arrived and the tracking never changed from the label created. Eventually, they did send a new package, but it took about three full weeks of back and forth messages with customer service to actually get that done and by that time, one of the items at sold out. Funko used to have great customer service, but it's taken an absolute nose dive in the past year or so. Don't get me wrong, they do usually rectify a legit issue like missing packages, major damage, or the wrong item, but it seems to take a long time to get replies to inquires. Best advice I can offer is if you have a problem, email them and be patient for a reply. But, also be persistent. If you don't hear back within five business days, email again. And be detailed with messages explaining the problem (including pictures if relevant), so you won't have to wait as long and hopefully not go through so much back and forth.

TKO Holdings is just the parent company of both WWE and UFC now. Similar to how Disney is the parent company of ESPN, ABC, Marvel, and about a thousand other companies. Until otherwise announced, WWE and UFC will be run separately, just owned by TKO. Then what’s Endeavor? As I understand it (and I could be wrong), Endeavor owns TKO Holdings (along with seveal other companies). So, I kinda misspoke in saying TKO was the parent company. Endeavor is the parent company of TKO. WWE and UFC are more like seperate brands of TKO. You may see something like a TKO logo during the little credits and copyright badge thing at the end of WWE shows and maybe a few other places, but not overly applied. As far as on screen product goes, as of now, WWE and UFC, while under the TKO umbrella, will be run and presented separately. Additionally, WWE stock is being converted to TKO stock, so in a sense, if you owned shares of WWE, you'll now own shares of WWE and UFC under the TKO name.

So are WWE and UFC gonna be TKO now? Will it be co-produced? TKO & WWE present: Survivor Series? What’s this TKO nonsense? TKO Holdings is just the parent company of both WWE and UFC now. Similar to how Disney is the parent company of ESPN, ABC, Marvel, and about a thousand other companies. Until otherwise announced, WWE and UFC will be run separately, just owned by TKO.

I'm gonna go get my lockdown long hair chopped off today. I've been putting it off for months, and trying to kid on that I wasn't losing my hair before I turned 30 but oh well, time to embrace the bald! I used to have long hair (to the middle of my back) and started graying at 17 and noticeably balding by 18. Turned 21 and broke a hair tie. Decided then and there to just accept the inevitable and shave it all off. Honestly, it might be one of the best decisions I've ever made. Kinda wish I'd have done it years earlier. Is a little shock looking at yourself in the mirror for about a week, but once you get used to it, it's so much easier to maintain.

I don't have the space or budget for multiple detolfs, so I made my own custom display cabinets with bookcases, PET plexiglass, trimmer, tape, and magnets.
It's a very DIY approach, but it keeps the dust out.
Been thinking about doing this myself... would you kind sharing some pics?

I assumed that’s just the Fun on the Run one. Is it not? Yeah, I think it is. Indeed it is. This was just the official announcement. BTW, she is available on the Funko Shop right now if anyone needs it.

What the hell is Funko on the Run? Is there going to be different stickers if it goes to Walmart? I misspoke a bit... it's Fun On The Run. Apparently some special truck will be making select stops to sell special edition figures. Apparently, along with said truck, Walmart stores will be getting some special edition Pop!s as well, the Liv Morgan being among those. According to the pics I've seen online (not super great quality), they'll have a sticker to reflect the 2023 Fun On The Run promotion. Other Pop!s shown so far are 10" Bumblebee and movie poster Pop!s for Jaws and The Big Lebowski.

It's part of the Funko On The Run summer release promotion. No word on exactly when she'll be released, but does sound like it'll be Walmart exclusive. Looks like a prominently black attire, no title, and in a different pose. Thank you! Not really familiar with funko but do they usually end up in all the Walmart’s? Usually, yes. Most modern WWE Pop!s end up being pretty easy to find in stores. Hit and miss whether it gets cancelled or not if ordering online (I've never had one cancelled myself, but lots of other people have). They almost always end up on the funko shop as well, though sometimes its a couple months after release.

I'm seeing all this stuff about omega vs osprey and them two being in contention for best in the world but they just don't have what danielson and okada have. They're good but they're not on that level. Completely agree. Omega is really damn good (when he has a good opponent to play off). Osprey about the same level, but a bigger upside for the future. Neither one is on Danielson or Okada's level.

I'm a big horror fan, but I've never seen this one or any of it's sequels. Considering buying them on dvd. Anybody any advice if these are worth buying? Thanks in advance! The first one... yes, absolutely. Should be in any horror fan's collection. The sequels aren't great films, but I thought they were overall pretty fun horror flicks and well worth watching at least once.

Kinda like the new design and think it does a good job of combining traditional and modern designs. With society firmly entrenched in an era in which instant brand recognition is vital, there was bound to be big WWE logo front and center on any new belt. Personally, I think the new design works perfectly in that regard while still paying tribute to one of the most iconic championship designs in history.
As far as what it means to Roman's lengthey reign as champion. See a lot of people saying in tarnished it and frankly, I don't see that at all. If anything, debuting a new Top title now is kind of an insult to everyone but Roman. Like say "okay, so Roman Reigns is the greatest human being to ever walk the planet earth and no one will ever beat him, so here... you guys can fight over this instead". It's their own fault though. The titles should never have been combined and they painted themselves into a corner by doing so.
Hopefully, a second world championship means they take the draft and brand split seriously again and keep rosters separate outside of ples.

Just seeing this now. I actually kinda like it. Do I wish they would have just brought back the big gold or a new, more traditional, design? Sure I do, but this is a new era in society. It's a social media era where instant brand recognition is incredibly important. Obviously there was gonna be big WWE logos on any new belt design. I think this one does a pretty good job of marrying traditional and modern designs.
