The Hasbro fan in me is super pumped to see that Beefcake in Mattel form.

Nothing bores me more on here than people complaining about articulation. I somehow survived growing up with Hasbros and Galoobs just fine, and they weren't exactly the most flexible figures in the world.

These are my favorite New Day figs, I'm gonna sell the Blue/White elites now that I've got these. Still hoping for a pink/blue elite set but I really dig the orange elites.

No need to get excited about incorrect info from 1993. They're flat out wrong about carded Rhythm and Blues, we all know that by now.

I'm not exactly the target demographic for these but they actually look really awesome and I may buy a few?

Spent a little time to really look at that picture of everything and man it is such a sight to see. To see the differences in those hand-painted protos ... my god.

Also, I fully understand if you want to keep the details private, but I am so interested in just how something like this is acquired. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

That's sweet man! And just in case anybody is curious about the signed figures. He sent them back to RSC and they are sending them out at random. Ooh, thanks man! Gonna send him a message! Crazy thing is I've been binging '98 WWF lately and he's all over it, one of my favorite workers of the time (binging Attitude Era for the first time properly after skipping most of it as a kid).

Just Taker for me. Like a lot of others have said though, I'm really fine with that. It's been nice to not have to worry about buying as much lately. And I'm cool with modern collectors getting their fill.

Thats pretty cool but at the same time I would be annoyed cause as a loose collector, Id still have to buy another lol The funny thing is I am mostly a loose collector (except for autos mostly, lol) so I will be buying another one to open up.

Hey fellas. Had been a little while since a big order for me so I made a massive order with RSC over the weekend, probably 10 figures in total to catch up amongst the new Elites. I get to the bottom of the package and I notice something unexpected ... my elite D'Lo had come in one of the protective cases, which I hadn't ordered. I look a little closer, and what do you know, it's a special autographed D'Lo! Came with the RSC certificate of authenticity and everything. Looks like it was a random treat. As someone who has surely spent thousands of dollars at RSC over the years -- and someone who collects autographed Elites -- this was an awesome, awesome surprise. Thanks, RSC!

First figure I've immediately pre-ordered after seeing the proto in a long, long time. Fantastic. (Not sure about the box art but it'll probably grow on me.)

Like most on here I'm actually glad to be saving some money. I know the line is still going strong but man it feels like it's winding down on here (and I'm currently in that boat with it). I still need a Charlotte so I may get her, but I'm waiting for one with the full robe and everything. And then probably Swann cause I like to have one of every character. If Usos are amazing maybe, but that's a big maybe.

TJP at Sheridan TRU. I picked one up and I don't even know if I want it, lol. Stupid habits. Have a feeling he's going to shelfwarm like crazy.

Legends 3, without a doubt. Unless you want street clothes version, then DM.

50-100?? You'd be lucky to get 50 for both. As Chicago said, that's more in the $30-35 range total.

I have really high hopes for the Epic Moments line. Eager to see more pictures.

I moved three years ago and now live right by a TRU, walking distance. We've lost too many toy stores already. Hope this is just a restructuring thing cause man it would suck to lose TRU.
