So yesterday afternoon at TRU the manager stopped me and told me they'd be getting a truck in this morning instead of the usual day. (Thurs) So I went there today hoping for TDK Rises or the new Power Attack Batman lines (Without any luck) But I did ask the always helpful employee if they had anymore Elites and BoPPV elites in back (I swear if it wasn't for this man I wouldn't have half of what I have in my collection) He said there wasn't any BoPPV left in back, but they did show Elites. I was hoping for Series 14 so I could get another Booker, but he came out with a case of Elite 13 So I got another of Edge and Cody. I'm not posting pics of them as I already did that with the first set. And here's a quick fixup on Cody- Nothing major I just gave him the small knee pads (I know he didn't were them with the gimmick, but I think they make huge legs a little better) And removed the hair strand from his forehead.    |

Awesome figure and a great fix-up. Too bad he's so expensive here  |

Cody is an awesome figure. I also put the smaller knee pads on him. I'm not confident enough to try and remove the hair strand, I'm afraid I'd ruin the figure. It doesn't bother me that bad.
The accessories are also very cool, even though he doesn't use them anymore.

How'd you remove the strand? I wanted to try on mine but it seems molded on his head. Lol

I did the same exact thing with the tongue on my BP Cody's Boots.

I've had that Rhodes figure for a few weeks not and I never even noticed that little strand until I read this post. I keep the mask and hood on him though so that's probably why. No way I'm trying to cut that thing off. I'm about as steady handed as Michael J. Fox having a convulsion.
