I can post it tomorrow because I don't have both in front of me right now. Mattel's hammer looks better than Jakks. But Jakks handle looks more realistic than Jakks.

Very nice buys, i think the elite torso might actually be a better fit for trips than the basic as it suits his real life shape a bit better. The Matt is pretty good, hes not a very defined guy so its good his figs reflect it now. Are you intending to purchase the packaged varient of trips with the water bottle in different spots?

No I'm not really a Hardy Boys fan, but I do like Matt more than Jaff and I like the Elite figure more than his FlexForce so I picked it up. And this morning I found the Orton at the Bergen mall in NJ. Pics added on Page 1 Elite Series 2 Randy Orton - |

Nice pickups. All three of them are awesome, they look great. Did Triple H come with the water bottle?

Very nice buys, i think the elite torso might actually be a better fit for trips than the basic as it suits his real life shape a bit better Actually the Elite figures (HHH & Orton) seem to have their Basic torsos retooled with the extra articulation. that news on mattel is pretty cool!! i would go if i lived up there It's not open to the public. You need to either be with the media or someone who is a retail vendor with certain credentials and tax ID's. It's all on the website. You can see who is allowed and what is needed to attend here - www.toyassociation.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Who_Attends |

Probably not seeing I'm a loose collector. Fair call, just i know you get some figs MOC like trips i thought you might be interested. Actually the Elite figures (HHH & Orton) seem to have their Basic torsos retooled with the extra articulation. Orton seems to be that way and congrats on buying him. Trips look a little less defined though from your comparison pic. Thanks for the sledgehammer comparison as well, i reckon the mattel one looks better as its more like the type wwe have rather than the more 'homsetyle' one jakks has. One question though, does the sledge and bottle sit comfortably in his hands or are they a little tough to get in like with jakks? |

I think it's just the camera flash. Because in person the abs look just as defined. The handle of the sledge fits perfectly in his right hand and the water bottle fits perfectly in his left hand. but the bottle is too big for his right hand. And the handle is too thin for his left hand to hold. I just wish the handle looked like an ax/sledgehammer handle rather than a broom handle.

The Orton looks great. I was going to wait for the Basic, but I will probably get the Elite when I see it.

I would recommend getting it...it's a great figure. Maybe hit Target or WalMart on your way home before the snow hits.

thanks for the pics !!! i love orton !!! No problem. Yes Orton is damn near perfect. I'm trying to get my wife to stop at Target and pick up the DiBiase this afternoon when she pics our daughter up from drama. I decided even though I have him coming from RSC I'll want a second. |
