Yeah, I mean if you have the money to spare, and trust that this guy will properly ship them, I would definitely go for it. I found a guy on eBay selling the first Austin Defining moments for $22 shipped. Funny thing is, I had just sold off the same figure, brand new, for $135. So it kinda paid for itself.

Well, I got it in the mail today. I should have mentioned I plan on keeping it MOC. It's 2/3 of a great set, but you guys are right, Sting is really off. Is that the same torso they used on Elite LOD Animal? The lack of neck also annoys me, but the other two figures are good enough to offset each other.
Thanks again for your thoughts!

now its crazy considering wwe mattel is the number one selling action figure. Are they really the top selling figures? I've been collecting on and off since 2010, but I didn't know they were that hot now.

The Wrestlemania 27 Elite is one that gets over looked I think. That's when he reffed the Lawler/Michael Cole match.

The going price for an elite is 20 dollars. Anytime you can get an elite for less than 20 it is well worth it. Very good point. I just wanted to make sure that Farooq looked as good in person as it does online. Thanks!

I stopped at Target in Miltown and they had... 4 Tito Santanas and 2 Sting HOF4. Nothing else worth noting.

Since I found out Mattel had the rights to make both Billy Graham and Sherri I have been surprised that we have still not got those. I didn't realize this at all either. I feel like WWE doesn't like superstar very much and wouldn't want to put money in his pocket. As for Sherri, that's a BIG one for them to sit on and not make . .. interesting It's more that Graham has been really damn hard on the WWE product based on what he's posted online over the past few years. He recently write something about how much of a silver spoon kid Shane O is, because he gets to take this huge bump, and doesn't have to worry about hurting themselves or not being given time to heal. Gotta say, he has a point. But he also commented on the Adam Rose character insinuating that the lollipop was code for a certain kind of sexual interaction. Kids get your parents permission before reading this post!

Thanks for the psychoanalysis. Thing is, I work hard for my money. And while you may be in a place where you burn $20 bills like cigarettes, I'm not. But thanks for taking the time to respond. It was a legitimate response. The figures have been available for nearly two years and you haven't bought them. They've been available for around $20 for at least a year and still you haven't bought them. If after two years and a 50% price cut you still can't decide whether or not to spend your hard earned cash on them, then you clearly do not want them.
Look, there are a lot of things I'd like to say here. It wasn't a legit response. I asked an opinion on a specific toy. Instead, you responded with a post explaining how I had already made up my mind. Followed by a more detailed response on how I actually made these decisions last year. I'm sorry. That's a load of malarkey. Your comments were snarky and backhanded. You had no intention of simply answering my question, instead, you, for whatever reason, seemed to attack me personally for not having bought the figures yet. That said. You've made your feelings known and I don't really care to hear anymore. If you want to talk about this 2 pack more, write me here. Otherwise, I'm done with you kid.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to answer, even the ones who reminded me why I don't post on or deal with melodrama from internet trolls who have to find something to fight with.

If you have to ask, then the answer is no. If you're on the fence on paying $20 for two elite figures consisting of two all time greats that also comes with a belt that does not get released too often, then you really don't want it. Thanks for the psychoanalysis. Thing is, I work hard for my money. And while you may be in a place where you burn $20 bills like cigarettes, I'm not. But thanks for taking the time to respond.

NOD standing for Nation of Domination. What's the general feeling on this? Is it worth $20?

Aside from the big sting head nothing wrong with it. May be hard to find in stores now most Walmart’s Had them clearanced down as low as $20 a month or so ago. Haven’t seen them around in awhile. Good luck! I found one on the bay last night for $25, which was what made me post this. I bought it earier this morning. Thanks for the help!

To help with Sting's oversized head. If you pop it off and put some cotton inside the head and pop it back onto to torso it raises the head giving him a neck which helps hide the size of the head. Thanks PJ!

I wasn't paying much attention to collecting when this came out. I was wondering if it's worth picking up. Does the face paint on all three figs look decent in person?

Nitro debut would also be really cool especially if it was cloth for the denim he wore. They could use the denim looking cloth that was used on the old Triple H defining moments.
