Kind’ve ridiculous WWE and Mattel never bothered to give Chyna recognition until she died! I understand everyone’s opinion of her choices of entertainment after wrestling is going to be different. I personally did not think anything of it other than what it was....grown woman doing what she wanted.
What pisses me off about it now though is WWE is profiting off her name/character with merchandise (like figures) but they refused to do anything while she was alive! Makes me sick! Loved the last two figures though!
There’s been “superstars” that have done a lot worse in my opinion....Jimmy Snuka for example.

I love the idea of the two pack but hate the idea it’s basic I never buy basics but that’s just me. Depending on how it looks I might get this one to keep MOC but I don’t know.

Got two of the Warrior when I found him along with Road Dogg, Bill Gunn and Paul Bearer few years back. I kept one MOC and opened the others. One of the better Warrior figures they’ve made for sure.

Preordered 1 Macho Man and 2 of the Ringside Exclusive Ultimate Warrior 12/31/2020 Hoping to get an email soon about Macho! Thinking of ordering another...but I’ve been finding series 7 around lately so I might just wait a few months to find it on the shelves at Target to get another, but there is no guarantee that I’ll even see it on Target shelves either. 🤨

I just can’t believe we get a “nWo” Cena figure but can’t even get a figure of REAL nWo members like Steiner or Bagwell or an Elite Kevin Nash that’s NOT an RSC exclusive or in street gear! Or a Scott Hall with accurate Knee pads....What a waste. Took years to get a Hollywood Hogan figure from Mattel John Cena puts on an nWo shirt for 2mins and gets a figure months later.🙄

Elite Bash at the Beach Sting was the first I remember. Still bothers me to this day! Would’ve been a perfect figure had it not been for that!

It hasn’t for me yet, totally, but I feel it coming... past few months I’ve been on the hunt almost every weekend. Going 30miles or more to the two or three biggest cities close to me, Two targets in one city, And A Walmart...Not 🤬, Next city One Target, One Walmart...Not 🤬! Farthest city 30+ Miles away One Target, One Walmart...Not 🤬! Some with shelves almost completely bare or might have 3 Bobby Heenan’s in the weasel suit.... Not to mention my local Walmart 🤦♂️ which is about 12miles away! They’ve had the same 3 lonely basics on the shelf for months! Never stops me from looking once or more a week when I’m in there for something though. I’ve gotten fairly lucky on great finds in the past. Last weekend at my last stop at a Jackson Target I found an Ultimate Edition Hollywood which I already ordered one from Ringside months ago but decided to get it for my Loose Collection.
I only collect Classic WWF/WCW Legend figures but have yet to find any of the Royal Rumble set with Warrior and Austin and never found the Decade Of Domination Kane(Walmart exclusive) which is another pain! Obtaining Store exclusives seem to be a real struggle around my area. Target and Walmart are the only places to look for figures now to my knowledge and the ones around me seem to never have much of anything anymore.

NEVER been interested with the current roster. Anytime I buy a figure of anybody from the current roster I buy for parts to use for customs!

I’m glad they finally decided to make this era of Macho Man! I hope we get a helluva lot more of these “neon cowboy” Macho Man attires! I preordered mine yesterday as soon as it went up! I’m really hoping the shirt is not like the Retrofest Macho and more like The Elite King Mabel we got. Not sculpted together shirt tassels but single pieces and hopefully the shirt is not removable. The rubber shirts make the figure look bulky. The shirt isn't removable, it's part of the torso sculpt. If it was a rubber shirt, it wouldn't have the butterfly shoulders or the diaphragm joint shown in the prototype render. I noticed that as well but since we’ve only seen the prototype picture So far I was hoping it stayed that way. I know some of the details are likely to change. That would be a pretty big change though....

I’m gathering parts and pieces to make an Elite Scott Steiner custom What would be a good body to use? I was thinking of using an Elite Rusev (can’t remember the series) it’s the one with the short boots.
I’m afraid of damaging the plastic torso with Acetone when removing the back tattoo and body hair. Is there any other elites with a similar body that would work that wouldn’t involve the risk of damaging the figure?

Either is fine with me but the fabric shouldn’t be to thick cause it’ll look bulky and off scale with the figures. The plastic has done the justice over the years but I wish we would get fabric tassels for the upper arms even if we never did for the boots. I usually replace my Warriors arm tassels with neon colored yo-yo string I order online. Makes the figure really pop!
