I purchased this figure also. I think it's a very good one, representing Rey's WCW early CW era with his classic matches with Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, Ultimo Dragon, among others

Great pickup. I really like that Rey, but I couldn't take the height and had to swap out his lower legs. Now he's the main Rey in my WCW display.
As for Rey losing his mask, wasn't that the fault of the stupid, chaotic WCW booking? I mean, I prefer WCW cruiserweight/lucha Rey to WWE "littlest big man" Rey, but mostly because his wrestling style doesn't fit the typical WWE wrestling style. Seeing him in poorly staged matches with big guys doesn't really show off his in-ring skills. Honestly, from your posts, PJ, I always wondered why you seemed to hate Mysterio, but I'm glad you liked him when he was actually good.

Great pick up man. I have always wanted a behind the sceens view of your photo spot. LIke a wide angel look. It just a neet little set up you use. Is the floor a base from a UMF figure?

Thanks guys. Great pickup. I really like that Rey, but I couldn't take the height and had to swap out his lower legs. Now he's the main Rey in my WCW display. As for Rey losing his mask, wasn't that the fault of the stupid, chaotic WCW booking? I mean, I prefer WCW cruiserweight/lucha Rey to WWE "littlest big man" Rey, but mostly because his wrestling style doesn't fit the typical WWE wrestling style. Seeing him in poorly staged matches with big guys doesn't really show off his in-ring skills. Honestly, from your posts, PJ, I always wondered why you seemed to hate Mysterio, but I'm glad you liked him when he was actually good. I used to love the matches he'd with guys like Eddie & Dean and other lucha/CW's. But from the first time he came out with a pair of horns on his head I just couldn't take him seriously anymore. I don't know why, but I just can't stomach him anymore. Great pick up man. I have always wanted a behind the sceens view of your photo spot. LIke a wide angel look. It just a neet little set up you use. Is the floor a base from a UMF figure? Thanks. Yes it and UNF base. what is that on his lip? did they just mess up on the paint job? thats what it looks like. Paint chip (the head is actually molded in black with the flesh being painted on) They had 2 Rey figures the other had poorly painted tights so I figured this one would be easier to fix. I'll do that at some point over the weekend. |

cool buy.....I wish WWE would allow Mysterio to show off more of his ability....his match w/ Eddie Guerrero at Halloween Havoc '97 was the s***!
