Very nice haul. Bushwhackers & Orton look like they are the gems of the set.

nice,in the moc pics i have seen before it looked like orton had black tights. im glad to see they chose a color that stands out a bit. the bushwackers are must haves for me. ill prob pass on the sheik/volkov pack and might pick up the orton/piper pack. all great figures though

Yes, I am glad Orton is in green. That was the color trunks I've wanted Orton in since CS8 (?) Piper looks much better wit hthe naked eye. But with the camera zooming in you can see all the flaws in the painting. (teeth & hairline)

I've always been curious PJ..... What do you do for a living? (If ya don't mind sharing that.) Always appreciate the pics. I was a UPS driver until I injured my back (I had surgery on L3, L4 & L5) since then I've been a Mr Mom. Thankfully my wife has a great job at Pfizer and didn't listen to me when I told her to quit after our daughter was born, because I took the month off to help out with the baby and my first day back I got injured at my second stop. That was Oct 6 1998. I had the surgery in Jan of 99 hoping to get back to work asap only to have the doctor tell me in the recovery room I could never go back because my back was so messed up. If I knew then whet I know now I'd have never had the surgery, because since then I've been in constant pain 24/7 and now they say the discs above and below the surgery are messed up. Anyway I'm an injured UPS driver/Mr Mom |

I got mine today also here in LI. My Piper's right boot is missing paint-one side of the shoelaces aren't painted. So mines a bit messed up too! Dammit!

PJ awesome pick-ups!!!! Do you ever trade or ship to Canada? If we don't get these 2-packs up here, you're only a state away from Toronto - and I really don't want to miss out on Volkoff, Orton and the Series 2 Legends 2-packs. LMK

I picked up the Foreign Legion set over the weekend because they didnt have the Bushwhacker set. Cool to see them loose. I contemplated getting Piper & Orton but something about that Piper i just dont like. Orton looks awesome though.
Thanks for the pictures as always.

I'm sorry to hear about what happened, PJ. But DAMN YOU, now I'm really torn about getting that Iron Sheik/Volkoff 2 pack. I didn't want it before but now looking at your pics, I'm changing my mind.

And with these there was only one person that I'd buy them for (and I did get him the Volkoff/Sheik set) that my wife wouldn't flip out over. But I'm not even going to try and push it, because I've gone crazy this month. |

Have you added the shirt to the elite Piper yet? No so far all I've done was take the Piper from the extra set and swap the heads with the custom Elite Piper I had made a while back. I'm hoping that Ralphs (LLD) makes a Mattel sized Panther tshirt for them. (I still need to order the "RAW is Jericho" shirt from him.) |
