I was fine with the previous figures, I’d love to see new ones by anyone though, always interested to see a new take on wrestling figures. I think they’d need to really try to pump out the main guys as fast as possible then try to come up with variants or hope new people keep coming to really make it work.
I’d love to see whatever made them available on Amazon and RSC, if stores are a stretch.

This is brilliant.
My favourite thing they’ve done in a while.
It’s extra good because that sign hangs from January to April and it looks like creative types could do their own signs!

I don’t understand a lot to do with WCW. I never had a problem with the figures themselves, just the lack of selection.
The rubber OSFTM set had nWo figures but no Hall or Nash, that was probably the weirdest set-specific omission.
For the plastic OSFTM figures with action features, they had Rick Steiner but he wasn’t available full size. Super weird.
For the entire OSFTM line, no referees.
None of the sets had War Games playsets, entire PPVs dedicated to War Games but no playset.
I thought the line specific omissions were bigger than missing certain wrestlers entirely.
Also, no Arn Anderson after Galoob. He was on TV a lot but not included.

I’d like to see them in a full setup if anyone has pics they want to post of that.
I love stuff like that.
I love NXT but I find by the time they get figures they're at the tail end of their time there.
So every time I think about a ring or guard rails, I don’t have anyone I’m that excited to put in there.

I picked up an awesome NXT Target Elite Nakamura and the RSC Bálor from a guy off Facebook. I have done very little shopping that way but the deals were too good to pass up.
I’m now just waiting to see if they release a steel cage or other playset here or for the new(er) Elite Orton, Jericho, Miz and Maryse.
I don’t buy any Basics usually but the new Rhyno looks pretty wicked, so I might get him if I see him.

I’m loving the game, I find I spend more time editing move sets and attire and Universe Mode than actually playing matches though.
My only complaint is that you can’t delete computer-generated promos in Universe Mode. It’s just not my favourite feature and it’s a lot of loading for not much fun.

Yeah I ordered from Amazon (doesn’t hurt mentioning them if I’m disparaging them) and my Kane and 2nd Finn were too rough upon arrival to display in package.
They both gave me the vibe they’d been returned.

I do a bit of both, if they’re posed cool in a different package like Roman Reigns from when he won the WWE Title at WrestleMania, I’ll keep him like that. I’ve been debating if I want Chainsaw Finn Bálor because it’d specifically be MOC, no interest in playing with him.
But now that they come with stands, I can confidently say they look better displayed with those out of the package.
The poses always leave a bit to be desired in package compared to how they can be posed outside of it.

I’d definitely pick it up.
I was left wanting an NXT ring after watching it but then realized all the Elites I’d want are nowhere near out and will probably be on the main roster by the time they’re out.
One of the issues with NXT if you’re into the toys and games, small window to enjoy those before they go up to the main roster...if any.
I do want to make a custom clip to put 2 WCW OSFTM Cages together though.

I love that it comes with Goldberg, the announce table and chairs and is electronic but...I just don’t like how big it is.
It looks like it could fit 50 Brauns or more.
I collect a lot of Big Men figures and I want them to look huge in my rings.
Hope it sells well and leads to a matching entrance. Now that’d be worth over a hundred bucks!

I would love this figure.
Great for a display this time of year.
Was actually debating on a Boogeyman this past Halloween, he has come back enough times that he’s good for any era just like Santa Mick!

I have noticed a ton of movement issues with my Elites recently but it’s not consistent.
I think it’s just a figure to figure issue that Mattel needs to think of a way to fix on a mass scale.
Might be time for some new parts.

I often ask questions if I’m going to be that picky.
Also surprised he asked for a full refund, sometimes if there’s an issue I’ll just ask about how to handle the situation and gauge the seller’s response.
Plus buying online comes with a certain set of risks to but to be that uptight about it...crazy.
The real way to play it safe is to be very clear about your return policy if any in the future.

Watching WWE I wonder why they choose to go to some places especially for big events.
Some of their usual venues have the worst audiences, loud inappropriate chants, while Toronto is usually awesome and watching the Houston shows was such a nice change.
It used to be pretty unique and special and cool for the heel to get cheered and the face to get booed but now it’s far too common place. And the profane chants in an era of naked ladies and barbed wire ropes had their place but nowadays I just think of bringing my nephews to a show where their favourite wrestlers are having thousands of people yell that kinda stuff...I think people might get a little more with keeping it somewhat PG and not trying to overtake parts of the show if they knew it was going to have an effect on how often they’re on the schedule and for what.
There’s just something more enjoyable to me when I hear the crowd enjoying the show and getting into following along with the stories and characters.

Really loving all the new NXT stuff though I wish they would have done ten people.
Velveteen Dream, Adam Cole, so many I can’t believe are a year away...if they ever come at all.

A free purchase...with my season pass...but still a purchase.

Picked up DM Jericho today. Sale starts tomorrow, but I'll get a price adjustment over the weekend. Also, I was looking at the TRU ad again, and if the prices in the ad are right, the sale should actually say 33% off, instead of 30. For example, the sale price listed in the ad of $19.97 down from $29.99 is a discount of 33%, rather than 30%. Assuming those prices are right, the sale is even better than it first sounded. Did they get new stock?

I wish Chyna was around right now, reffing the women’s matches at Survivor Series.
