Awesome custom man! Good job on the torso. I tried to crack one once...ended up cracking my own in the process lol! Thanks. I’ve been practicing with already compromised figures. Getting better.

I know where to place it! Give us a tommy dreamer Elite!! As much as I would love a TOMMAY Elite, he's not possible. Even when he wasn't in WWE he didn't sign any concrete deals with them because he wanted to focus on his promotion House Of Hardcore. I think the best options would be a Matt Hardy or Christian. Oh boy if they ever release a singles version of Matt hardy it best be his ecw run or version 1

This is amazing! Absolutely love it. I do wish they made it a 6 pack and threw in the ECW (silver version). Bill keeps saying he can’t figure out where to place it, this would have been sweet! Oh well, still awesome haha I know where to place it! Give us a tommy dreamer Elite!!

I had such high expectations for the USO’s. Like was really excited for them. Now that I’ve seen them I can’t believe my eyes. I mean what the hell are they wearing. The legs look horrible! Was hoping for black attires. And totally could have used tj Perkins lower legs. What a flop

To me I don’t see it as a financial gain. When you put it up for 20$ ebay/pay pal take couple dollars each and the 3$ to ship one figure. And then you get the monthly seller fees it all adds up. Now to just sell off a couple is worth it.

Test and Albert are clean as a mo fo. Although test seems really short. Could have gone with a undertaker WM 32. But it's still a very nice figure.

I've found a new love for TNA marvel and toy biz figures. Trying to collect as many as I can I'm glad to hear it, be sure to post what you find, I can never get enough of that line. I just recently discovered that the Sonjay Dutt and Senshi accessories actually attach to the rings and it made me want to pick up extras of those figures. I'm trying to buy all the big elite style I can find. Like the Samos joes and styles. Got s lance hoyt and two kip James. I'll post a pic of one of the kip James I put a new head on.

You saying the r3 tech had a lot of articulation? No I'm saying they were awkward and gross looking. Like the bodies are weird as f That they are. Worst looking figures ever.

That Traci Brooks though! Tbh, I wasn't into these period. I wasn't a huge TNA fan anyway but I had AJ with the ring and Chris Daniels. The amount of articulation and statute of them made the bodies look weird. They reminded me too much of those god awful R3 Tech figures. Too much articulation is sometimes a terrible thing. They were too hard to play with. Sometimes they moved way too awkwardly. Some of the headscans were on point! You saying the r3 tech had a lot of articulation?

Wish I was into them when they were in stores. Now 'm looking to collect all the elite styles. I've got two Aj aand two Samos joes. Getting lance Hoyt and kip James. They are scarce. Yeah, I don't think the people who have them necessarily want them, they just don't bother putting them up. You would have to actually search a bit to see they're worth something. Which two AJs and Joes? Pics? Nice, I still need Kip and Lance but lately I've been obsessed with getting the X-Division guys. The Aj and Joe that came in a two pack. I have two of each. Articulation wise I love these figures. But with the age of them. The joints are either super duper loose or really tight.

How much were these guys at retail? toynewsi.com/news.php?itemid=6256&catid=15Amazingly priced for their Elite-style quality. So upset they didn't make more. I wish Mattel was slowly changing and improving but when I look at Series 1 vs. Series 74 Cena... Wish I was into them when they were in stores. Now 'm looking to collect all the elite styles. I've got two Aj aand two Samos joes. Getting lance Hoyt and kip James. They are scarce.

My first Mattel Elite figures where grey attire john Morrison and dolph ziggler in punk trunks with show off jacket. I had just those two for a while. Was so out of the loop I didn't even know who ziggler was. I just thought he looked cool. Now I'm up to 100+ figures most of them are customs or fix ups
