So I got a nice check this week and decided to treat myself to a figure. I usually by one elite every few weeks or so, and I've decided to buy strictly elite, because of the detail and playability. My last figure was Tyson Kidd, which was an awesome addition to my collection. Anyways I go check out a target and they don't have much of anything =\, So I got the TRU near by, which had more stuff out on display, didn't see any elite 9! But I did see Legends Bulldog, was tempted to get him...until I saw the All Stars display. They had Orton Roberts and Punk Austin, but no Savage Morrison! However I have been trying to replace my only basic Mattel figure (CM Punk) with an elite version. So I picked up the Austin Punk 2 pack for 25 bucks. I have to say this CM Punk is one of my favorite figures so far, the detail is on point, and the choice of attire is perfect for the figure. My only gripe was the headscan as I felt the smirk wasn't the right mood for Punk. So I did as head swap with his Basic counterpart and I think it looks great! Anyone else have this awesome figure? What's you're favorite Punk figure?

Good pick-up and fix-up. This one was my favorite of the All-Stars packs and I'm glad to own it as well. The headswitch looks pretty good, but a little on the small side, though it's not your fault. As far as my favorite Punk, it has to be the 2-packs series 7 or Elite 6. I know the 2-packs one is very plain, but I love the pink, white, and black combination.

i am a fan of that figure. i also like the headswap you did. i think that head is underused and if i find a cheap series 2 punk, i'm gonna jump on it for the head. i'm gonna hold out on a punk until they do his chest tats. i've done extensive work on my punk and i refuse to pay for a new elite until he's up-to-date. also did the mask when he wore one... oh, and for the record, it's an elite 1 punk. it's been compeltely re-painted twice now, and the head i used for the mask was a modded RA edge head, i added the mask and beard after removing the hair....

Allstars is my favorite one, its really good. I like the head that was on it though, I think it looks better than the basic, but its a matter of opinion I guess. Good pickup. I'm surprised you didn't mention how perfect the Austin figure was!
