Found some new Superstars at a really crappy Walmart that has a really small figure aisle. Nice surprise.
Saw Perfect, Piper, Hogan and Bigelow. No chase Hogan. Was worried that Quake and Rude were skipped since I haven't seen too many sighting reports for them. But surprise, surprise, they were on top with more Machos and Rocks.
I picked up everything except Hogan and Piper since they're shipping in consecutive waves. Had to limit myself because with all the new MOTU Origins releases, Snake Mountain and new WWE Retros, it's been a rough month on the wallet.

I have been out of collecting for a bit over a year now. I was in Walmart and figured I would look. Usually, the Walmart's in my area are either 100% empty of figures or they have like two Basic's. I was so shocked to see dozens of WWE and AEW figures on the shelves. I may even go back and get more.

Finally found my $20 set at Marshalls tonight, I'm thrilled! It's deals like this that keep me collecting!

Back to the Codyverse traded me his NHB Hogan, loose, for an elite 35 Orton with no boots or knee pads in what some might call THE DEAL OF THE CENTURY.

Picked up Edge today...was on the fence but the Dom figure changed my mind on it because the upcoming JD Priest will be good & you know we will get a better Rhea soon...I love a good matching faction

A few pickups from the last week or so... I've always been a no basics guy, but Cody on Amazon for $12? Yeah, I'll bite Elite 101 Cody, damaged package from Ringside...box was pretty beat up but the figure is fine And finally, a figure I have had my eye on and been outbid on numerous times. One popped BIN for a price I was ok with so I grabbed it in a flash.

Wasn't planning on picking up any of the Legends 19 wave but after seeing all of them at $6.89 I couldn't resist lol. Now's the time!

Just got my latest Ringside order in of Royal Rumble Vader and some Ultimate Edition Defender cases
But also in this order I decided to go ahead and pick up some CM Punk figures from AEW that I’d been holding off on, because I don’t watch AEW and don’t collect their stuff
But with him getting fired, I said I better pull the trigger because I do really like Punk
The LJN style figure is f’n awesome for those who appreciate LJN type figs
And the Blood & Guts 2 pack of MJF & Punk. Might be the coolest looking set of figures in my collection. I absolutely love this set
I might honestly go in and buy some of my WWE guys like Jericho, Christian, DB now, because of this pick up

Found Commissioner Foley for under 20 shipped, also finally committed to the R3 Tech Tajiri just cause I doubt Mattel gets to him.

I hope the figures I want to ask everyone about aren't considered 'frauds' in the way that the forum rules described 'frauds' because that is certainly not my intention posting here. I was just wondering if anyone here took a chance and spent $35 to $40 on the TOP RIGHT TOYS set of 12 generic but obvious rip-off figures sold by Crystal Deals on Amazon? This set popped up in my feed for the first time about a month ago and now they are appearing every single time I visit Amazon. They call this set the "Pretend Play 7 Inch Wrestling Warriors" and in one other sentence they are referred to as boxers as well as wrestlers. I am interested in them simply as fodder for building my own figures but not if they are super cheaply made like I suspect and fall apart after being touched once. Anyone own these? If anyone else is interested at all I might be willing to be the guinea pig we'll see. It's only $40 with S&H so not a huge investment but I was just curious if anyone else reacted to them at all like I have. I am not posting a link but will finish by listing which wrestlers are being presented: Sheamus, Batista, HHH, Taker, Kane, Edge, Cena, Mysterio, Lesnar, then the remaining three are a toss-up but I lean towards RKO, Y2J, and ROCK. Thanks for humoring me and if nobody cares just ignore this LOL.

Thanks for humoring me and if nobody cares just ignore this LOL. This is a very interesting first post. I haven't seen these figures nor have I bought them but I will say this much. You aren't going to have much luck with using fodder from one toy line to another. Parts are meant to be used within a line and that's about it. Whatever these knockoffs are, they are very unlikely to work in conjunction with WWE Mattel figures. So if you're looking for custom figure fodder, try elsewhere. Look on secondary for lots of fodder or used figures or hit up FB groups that deal with customs. Figure Giant is also an option. Really, speaking as a customizer, the best hope for knock off figures like that is if you want to use them as audience members for an arena set up. Which, if they're in the WWE scale, might be useful for. But outside of that, I'd say don't bother.

It had been a few hours since my last Cody haul so I had the shakes and cold sweats. Luckily Saturday was good to me. Found Top Picks at Target in the morning... Then came home to a mail haul from an enabler friend in Houston... Then Sunday a nice man parks in front of the house while I am working in the flowerbeds. My head whips around because immediately I can smell it. The sensational aroma of something cooking.

Small joy. My Ollie's had around a case of E93 at $9.99. Picked gladiator Kross, Seth, and finally a Raquel after her figs have been glaring at me in the WM aisle for the past year.
Decided to run back and get the Cesaro too. Jacket is worth that.
