Hey guys,
I thought I would share pics again of some of my most recent receivings in the mail.
I'm still awaiting one small lot from eBay of older Jakks figures, but I'll update the thread once I receive them.
The reason why I've bought a lot lately (mostly current RA) is to update my collection after deciding one day that I wanted to have a near-accurate representation of WWE's roster across three brands. I'm not a devoted Divas collector, but I'll try to add a few here and there to go with the male wrestlers if I find any good deals.
Thanks for taking the time to look, and enjoy the pics.
First off, I bought this lot of four MOC Superstars Series 4 "Bad Boys" BCA figures on eBay for a little over $8 shipped. I opened Vader and Hunter for my loose BCA collection, and the others I'll keep MOC for now, although all of the cards are in fairly bad shape.
The following purchase is a pretty big one, but one that I've wanted to add to my collection again for many years. It cost me a few dollars extra to get it shipped faster to me using Priority Mail, but I think it was worth it. I paid a little under $22 shipped for this MIB Raw Is War Monster Ring, which is a variant re-release with BCA ring attire Vince McMahon figure included.
MIB
Loose
Bagged Vince McMahon BCA figure (a re-release from previous singles/doubles sets)
Completed ring with various HBK figures to show the scale of the ring
I also recently added pictures of the original Jakks Monster Ring repaint from 1996 to the LJD boards, which can be viewed here:

Now, as for some current Jakks buys, here are two MOC figures I bought on eBay for a little under $22 shipped total, with loose pics to follow.
I passed on the Noble before while it was in stores, but I've wanted both he and RA37 Santino for a while now, so I'm glad I was able to get both at the same time.
And, finally, I made a nice sized purchase from RWB on eBay for these figures to continue updating my collection (AD30 Balls/Kelly was marked down in damaged packaging so I bought it, specifically for a current Kelly). Everything total cost under $77 shipped, but they provided a great service and I can't complain.
Adrenaline 2-packs are solid and I never thought I would buy a Miz lol, but he has vastly improved in recent months, so I'll give him that. I actually really like the Kelly figure and love Balls' detailed tattoos, as well. I hope another Morrison repaint is planned in one of his many other colored attires, since the figure I was replacing was from the debut MNM AD set, and the ECW4 attire is not much different (which I still knew when I bought it). I suppose his DA18 figure is the best available right now, though.
MVP is excellent from top-to-bottom and I could live with this being his final figure (if it is). RA40 Edge, Jericho and R-Truth are all great and I would definitely suggest buying them all if you're looking for current versions of each. Jericho is one of the best figures produced thus far this year, in my opinion, but I'm very pleased with every other figure I bought recently.
If anyone has any questions about anything I bought, just post them and I'll try my best to answer or, at the very least, help you out.
Thanks again for taking the time to view this thread, and I hope the pics didn't take too long to load.
Take care, everyone.
