Just curious what everyone else thinks I was gonna title this "most life like figure" but let's face it, almost every single current figure looks damn near life like so let's just leave it to the legends and flashbacks Which ones do you think are near perfect? Kamala has always been a figure I think that looks nearly perfect The brain busters are really close as well And now the new Big John studd figure, wow, I'm not a b.j.s fan although I love bjs haha but that figure is nearly perfect. Studd fans must be over joyed Any other figures you guys feel are nearly perfect? I'm with you on Kamala! It's a flawless figure as far as I'm concerned!

Would have to be Elite Flashback Jericho. Now, if you would've asked "which figure are you mad that we didn't get?" My reply would have been Magnum TA!

With Mania in Dallas, WWE should do an episode of Rivalries: Freebirds vs Von Erich's. Induct the Birds in the HOF, and give us Hayes & Gordy vs Kerry (repaint in red) and Kevin (repaint in yellow).

One Man Gang was one of Kerry Von Erich's greatest foes! I've been needing him for my collection for a long time! Chain accessory would probably be a given, but we need a recycled triple h defining moment denim, sleeveless jacket (sans the trips logo, of course)!

Luger as the Narcissist is long over due. I'm thinking he should be basic in Royal Rumble or Wrestlemania heritage.

Are all of the customs going to be from 1994 Rumble? That Mo is awesome, the detail is incredible! Seeing that logo that I grew up on makes me wish mattel would make new generation stars like that. I always loved that era, even though most didn't. I can't wait to see..."Mo" from you! Sorry, I couldn't resist!

First off is theaxehennig tells you to do something, Do it! While making this green Kevin Von Erich, I let acetone run down my hands (thinking it was just water cause I did just do part swaps) and it got all over the green trunks. It left horrible white residue behind especially after I removed the logos... Axe told me what to do and I followed his instructions and this thing is perfect now! This is what I was talking about people freaking out cause I pretty much took a highly wanted Macho Man figure just to make another Kevin Von Erich, but hey...It looks awesome IMO and its an accurate attire for what he wore in Japan. Also since I had parts left, started working on a red trunks Macho Man and I had a spare AJ Lee I was trying to remove the yellow shirt from, which left the horrible white stains, which I could now go back and fix and work on another random custom.. Amazing Kevin in neon green! Would fit in nicely with the 10 Kerry fix-ups I have . Great work, man!

Patriot using Create A Superstar Hogan body and Jakks head. Simple, but I like it. Great idea! I Really like it! Is he in scale? Yeah, he's pretty close, I would say.

Thought this was going to be a video of Stephen Amell touring RSC.

elmsrock I know I said I love the baby blue KVE, but the yellow one with the yellow rose of Texas is amazing!! I absolutely love it!! And your General Skandor Akbar is simple, yet perfect. I really appreciate that!

My latest Kerry Von Erich fix ups! Trying to get him in every color he wore in the 80s. The one in Carolina blue has Tito Santana boots, partly because sometimes Kerry would wear boots with lightning bolts on the side (black, not red, though). Big thanks to Apocalypse for the torso switches! You're the man, brother! All of my other Kerry figures and Kevin fix-up in the middle. Took the Eddie HOF rose and painted it yellow for the Yellow Rose of Texas he got after beating Flair for the NWA title! My Kamala fix-up with Barbie gold bracelets(fit perfectly)! And, his trusty spear. He went all out for entrance attire in the 80s. Kamala is my favorite Kerry rival!! Also, my Akbar fix-up!

NP! What were you looking for specifically though? I have Hogan and it's the only one I'll likely get. At least for now. They are shockingly in pretty damn good scale with the other mattels. I actually like the corporate Kane so much that I was hoping that these had similar articulation. I found a Hogan body for cheap, so Ryback your analysis really helped me decide to go ahead and get it. I couldn't pass on it for the price! Nivro, I have thought about the Luger parts as well. But, I stink at painting so I thought this would be a great alternative for the Patriot!

Looking to buy the Hogan one for a Patriot custom. Was wondering what sort of articulation these have?

I might be in the minority, but they should really upload more World Class episodes. I could see if they had never put any at all on the network, but it started strong and was a huge selling point for me. So many classic bouts between the Von Erich's & Freebirds plus all of the Star Wars and Parade of Champions shows could be added. If promoted correctly, younger fans may get into it! I just want some consistency with things like this. I also really enjoyed the Old School shows! I won't even get started on the lack of AWA, Mid Atlantic, and Mid-South/UWF. I just don't get it! Ok, the most watched is NXT, fine! I too love NXT! However, throw something out there for all types of fans! I am a fan of all eras, I love everything from Harley Race's title reign to NXT. The network should cover a broad spectrum of eras, IMO. I'm hoping that a new season of rivalries will feature the Von Erich/Freebird feud and thus force them to load some more WCCW. Plus, Mania will be in Dallas this coming year! What a perfect time to start hyping some World Class (the promotion that really revolutionized wrestling on television)!
