I went to TRU today for the Vince thing. I already knew I wanted to get British Bulldog and Vader to use for customs. Found Bulldog but no Vader. I was disappointed when I went and they didn't have any display. Rather they had their usual setup with a card attached to the shelf explaining the Vince promotion. They didn't have too much special. I grabbed Bulldog and a Jim Duggan (Duggan ended up being a good grab cuz I found some good uses for him). Anyway they did have some figures from the TLC set, DM 3, and some from Basic 11. Unfortunately, there was no Daniel Bryan which I was really hoping to get (even though he isn't a qualifying figure.) They did however have tons of Skip Sheffield. So I grabbed one.    This figure is pretty sweet. The face is really accurate. I'm going to hit up a different TRU tomorrow and see if I find anything else. |

I got him & Eve last week and I couldn't be more impressed with Skip. Mattel did a fantastic job on his scan & the torso choice works perfect. Congrats on finding one & good luck looking for Bryan.

I was really surprised with how many Skips there were. There were like 2 pegs full.

That third picture is awesome.
Which uses do you intend for Duggan?

That third picture is awesome. Which uses do you intend for Duggan? Well I grabbed him just to have a guy with that kind of body. I thought I might go with a slightly thinner Bossman custom rather than the fat version I'm planning on getting Vader for. I ended up using his calves for a flair fixup with tall boots. I used the body for Nikolai Volkoff. I got sick of the Volkoff I had not moving right. You can see both in the fixups thread. |
