Hmmm. Sorry if some of the pics are a bit blurry. Too much light + Droid apparently doesn't make a good combo.

Got some stuff from RSC, a few things I grabbed at TRU, some divas and my first wfigs trade. Got Legends 5 from RSC and already have them on my wall: A friend of mine who lives in Illinois actually found Natty at her local Target and grabbed it for me, and I grabbed the Melina figure since it was 1/1000, but I'm really holding on to it only for trading purposes: Grabbed these two Michaels figures at TRU as I hadn't seen them in ages and needed them. Series 10 HHH from RSC is hanging out in there as well: And got the OTL R Truth in a trade with D3STROY3R: Pretty satisfied overall.

The Jesus scan is amusing, but it looks NOTHING like Punk. I'd love to have seen his reaction when they first showed it to him.

Thanks PJ. I got mine yesterday and I think they look great. I leave my Legends and Elite MOC/MIB, but opened the HHH. Definitely the best headscan of his thus far, and one of the best overall. While I'm sorry they cut down on the number of Legends per series (though my wallet's not), I think all of these look great, including Martel.

No offense but I think you are missing the point. I'm specifically talking about the Legends line and the events that are in BOLD. DH Smith is a current wrestler, not a legend in which mattel is recreating a particular look of a legend's career. Was just an example at how asinine it is. Slaughter in AWA gear = not many memorable moments for example, so naturally you go with an actual memorable moment. If that attire happens to be from when there was one, then sure, go with that.If BOLD lettering is such a big deal, I'd question my priorities personally. Besides, see the DM HBK figure. Now THAT'S an error! THe HBK error annoyed me so much that it's the only DM figure I took out of package.

Search out some ended ebay auctions. I've seen it fetch a pretty penny.

Funny that's EXACTLY the order I placed with rsc the other day. Legends 5 and HHH Basic 10. Can't wait.

Ummm...EG Debiase wears a suit, and the upside to cloth instead of molded suits is that they're removable, so you get ring gear in the same figure. Mattel did a fantastic job with DM Rock on both ends. Like someone mentioned, since Mattel figs are actually scaled in size (unlike Jakks), the bottom line is that they're not going to dish out the money needed for multiple suit molds. Although I totally agree with you on how its been way too long without a Mattel Vince (or Bret for that matter, especially with all the times he was on Raw last year after being gone for over a decade after Montreal, I'm amazed from a business standpoint that Mattel didn't capitalize on what would of been a golden goose. I know they'll produce multiple Brets eventually, but the perfect timing is long gone.) Anyway back to Vinny Mac, I don't want to spend the money on two figs when I can get a suit and street/match gear in one figure. As far as Bret, it's been stated by Mattel on this board that the reason we haven't seen a figure of him is because he played hardball with them and only RECENTLY signed on. The cloth accessories are hit and miss. But i'd prefer that over a molded suit. I'm thinking back to the CSS Hunter Hearst Helmsley figure Jakks made where, rather than have his suit jacket come off, they gave him a black rubber vest, which when removed, left him with two black arms and a white shirt torso. This just looked terrible. And with all this talk of Cole, am I the only one who would love a figure of him in that stupid organge singlet with the headgear?

Well, great timing. Every TRU in my area has had bare walls in the WWE section for weeks now, except for the All Stars sets, and obviously the Legends 2 Packs which i think they're charging rent for now.

Kane has never held THAT title so I guess use common sense. Well, not the spinner belt (why do they still use that hideous thing?) But he's been WWE/F champion.

Actually, I went to my local KMart and brought the M$M figure up to the register, and it still scanned for $19.00. Needless to say, I passed.

That Batista figure is nearly flawless. One of the best looking action figures I've ever seen. Very detailed and highly recommended, even if old Dave has moved on to other pastures.

I seem to remember RSC posting a few weeks back that the ENTIRE Legends 6 series is delayed until Mid-June, which means the backorder figures probably won't ship until mid-July.

I'm an MOC collector and I opened this one. Don't really like the EG packaging.

Mine are MOC except for Michaels because I basically crushed the packaging by accident.

I actually picked up a Melina last night for trade purposes. It's still MOC. If you're interested, write me. If not, I may just return it.
