Who all did you get in the bubble wrap? I really want to get the series 8 Hogan that you got. Did you get it for a decent price? Worked with a great seller and All were MOC but opened to ship and Ill flip the boxed ones Its was a bundle deal but $15 on Hogan , $20 on dogs and $25 on RD LOD all others were $8 but brand new and mostly extras , Shango , muraco , mountie , harts bought for painted Tag Team belts have 3 sets now , hammer and Tully hairy for $5 a piece , Vince and my 7th Iron sheik lol . Just missed out on Zeus but I found a boxed MR T for $15 I bought a second round and have 8 Ace ortons now , Kaufmann and lawler and lawler for a Steamboat mod and I got Johnson and atlas as i figure I can tag Atlas with Andre , a MOC in box real hair hairy chest Earthquake really MOC card for $15 . Also got a ton of fodder to orton and roberts HTM chest mods man I been working 14 hourts a day on this but man Its almost like I got it for free after I flip a few pieces as I love to wheel and deal Stay tuned for my Giant John Studd leg surgery to make him 1/2 to 3/4 inch taller without paint knee pads or andre legs and hopefully it will be my masterpiece

I would like to make a pre 1990's Jakks collection but I can never find figures for a great deal like you got! Anything I can find has individual figures at $25+ each.

I would like to make a pre 1990's Jakks collection but I can never find figures for a great deal like you got! Anything I can find has individual figures at $25+ each. Its getting tougher but 90% of my figures other than Hogan or tough ones I never paid more then $4 to $10 display only quality and I also contact sellers and do bundle deals and even my crowd was more expensive to start but I kept them around $10 to $13 a piece which wasnt bad when most went for $20 plus . I also set up a feebay search on items I need but some figures really are like stocks going up and down as Deluxe Beefcake and Valentine were had for $8 shipped and now in the $20 and Greg has slowed down to around $14 with those Mattel big head mods .I do think Mattel mods have much to do with it but Ill see when I try to sell LOD RW as they were always expensive but now that mattel did um maybe their stock has dropped and the bulldogs are always steady but have dropped to $40 boxed . Maybe its different in The Great White North since USPS and Canada post raised shipping ? i mean i used to sell so much up north and even my Hockey Jersey sales have slipped ? You might try to look for figure lots in display quality condition and then take what you want and flip the rest I mean I get all these figure for almost no cost by flipping and wheeling and dealing but many MOC just dont sell and shipping on them suck so most are un boxing to control shipping cost . I had a Danny Davis boxed I got for $15 and I flipped it for $40 but it took a month to sell and my bagpipes I got for pipers emerald society figures was a flip and I made $15 bucks and also got those 2 free tiny flags man I gotta sleep and then get up and do a MDM Tully hairy chest mod next .

What in the world are you going to do with 8 Ace Orton's and 7 Sheiks?! I have issues as Im going for my 12th Hogan I guess I watch all the old WWF stuff and then wanna recreate it ? like I said I never had so much fun with a hobby though I may slow down when the video game MLBTS comes out the 31st but I guess since Im on the IR maybe permanent its filling the gap that playing Hockey did ! Not liking the Orton chaps I ordered though so I can always unload some on feebay and I couldnt never have enough sheiky baby and the whole thing is I never bid more than $7 shipped on him new and I always win the auction and its actually how I win most of my bids .

Since SpiderJune went on the witness protection program I value your opinion even more so what do you think of these two sheiks ? I really like to have all the same torsos for each figure so what do you think as I cant do a sheik chest mod on this size figure , Thanks and Im not feeling the pants either ?

The Skeiks look great. The problem with Ralphs is that the clothes aren't tight enough and look too bulky. The Skeik's pants look good though since in real life they weren't that tight fitting. I always preferred the shorts look for the Sheik though.

I always preferred the shorts look for the Sheik though. Yeah Ralphs work for the Iron Sheik but I dont know ? I feel cheap kinda like when I see a fake head or like my Mattel Steamboat head on a Jakks figure so thanks for your help as Im gonna unload my Savages and Miss Liz figures as they just dont play much of a roll in my SNME universe at this point . Im looking at my Ralphs steamboat robes and just so much bulky material even after I ask for tight ? so I bought a mattel RS for $13 and kept the Jacket and Camen/dragon and resold it for $17 lol . Their stuff would really be amazing if they could form fit better ? I mean why not just use a stretchy material when making the trunks for MM so they form fit instead of like a diaper . I normally try and order for a size smaller torso so its less bulky but its not always possible but they do great robes and shirts but pants and dress shirts are out of scale especially collars and on the gold shirt blassie above I had to cut off half of the collar and its still huge . Dont know how I will do pipers emerald society bagpipers as I will use a Buddy Roberts torso but I think I will order the kilts for a mattel figure scale and the hats like my Jessie beret but I dont know how Ill do the jackets shirts and ties but I think it will have to be jakks

Again, the shirts should be skin tight but I realize that would be hard to do. I always thought that the Buddy Roberts body would be perfect for a Heenan head. Throw on a one strap singlet and you have a Heenan ready to wrestle with a member from his family.

I like the Jakks Heenan heads as the buddy roberts head would be to small and the wrong hairstyle IMO and the with the rips on Hogan shirts it effects the tightness but trust me I could barely get them on Brother ! More Match coming soon ....
