Congrats on the purchase and props for you to opening it and doing what YOU want despite whatever preconceived beliefs or unspoken rules people have about opening rare items. It's a cool exclusive, good headscan. Definitely looks much better with jacket on and now stands as a true centerpiece of your warriors, awesome.
Also props to you on your awesome work. Checked out the site, you have a great style! I can respect that for sure!

AWESOME! It looks amazing loose, I can safely say mine will be staying MOC though, unless of course I convince the Missus to let me have another one, whats the odds on that? lol!
Cheers for posting the loose pics, you tempted me, for about 10 seconds until I looked at my setup again, but, I will open one if I can do some serious sweet talking!!!
I'm a MOC & loose collector, so know where your coming from about collecting loose. Haters gonna hate, Fu#k em!

Haha I definitely feel you if you are able to get doubles then open one up haha. Not sure what the wife would say tho haha, she may snap at you. One time is one thing but 2?? Haha she would probably go nuts. Thanks though for checking out my post brotha. Enjoy your Warrior exclusive also. |

@iamjpierce love your posts as always! This figure is brilliant. I love the detail on the jacket. I think it is also awesome you opened it. I tried to MOC collect once, but it just wasn't for me so I have mad respect for you opening such a rare figure. The only ones I generally keep in packaging are RSC exclusives just because I designed RSC logo many years ago which Mattel prints onto the packaging. Thanks man. I appreciate it. Yea I couldn't see myself getting into MOC collecting. Especially with all the box changes. It's nuts. I love collecting loose. |

its too bad something like that cant be enjoyed by a LOT of collectors. why do they have to limit it? why not make more, charge less but still more than a regular figure and the profit goes to the same place?
either way, congrats man...excellent figure & nice display!

Thanks man. I actually have one other Warrior collector who opened his also. I won't do MOC lol. Yea that is a custom of me made by @zombieapocalypse Now that I looked more closely I think the hat just says your name, but from a quick glance it looked like a throwback Phillies hat. Either way, awesome collection. Lol yea that is my signature hat that Apocalypse created for me. |

Just wondering ...the certificate in your pic, did you photocopy the original , or does it come like that? Its an original not a photo copy. Just a printed certificate and signed by the manager to claim its official. Nothing crazy tho. |

I think the figure has a botch at the back of the packaging... it says the Warrior returned in the WWE 2K13 videogame... Can you see if I'm right? One of the main reasons why I didn't care opening the package. You are correct though. It's supposed to be 2k14 |

I do feel for those who won't oWn one, but, I like the idea of exclusives and Limited Editions, I think it adds to collecting, I'm glad Warrior had this deal struck with Mattel and Jakks previously, I like the idea of figures I can't just stroll into TRU or Smyths etc and find, there should be special pieces in collections, my one of these is certainly my centre piece. Warrior's family will probably earn less from this figure than they do from the general release figures, so I'm not sure how much money they'd make was at the top of Warrior's list when striking this deal, not from what I've read anyway |

I really love that jacket, because each time he came back his face paint and jacket had gotten exponentially more impressive and intricate. The WM12 one was nuts, all of 96 actually, same with the oWn stuff, he was blossoming and working on the gimmick and appearance in his off years with no where to show it. It showed real dedication in making a big effort to make his appearances memorable on a visual level, and it worked, I just wanted to see him and his amazing gear more in 96. Rude and Savage were like that too. There's so much hate thrown at the guy for no reason, like the comic book, so what it was kinda weird and drawn by a Liefeld wannabe. Look at that bad ass comic art on the 1/15 jacket. I don't see anyone making fun of the old WWF or WCW comics or Austin, Taker, Mankind and Nash comics as much, as if making Ultimate Warrior into a character for comics and cartoons is some weird idea that no one else was trying, it was a perfect idea. I often think he would have gotten great in the ring if his career wasn't so start and stop and I don't put the blame for that on him. I dare anyone to say Summerslam 89 vs Rude isn't a really good match, Rude does a damn ganso bomb on Warrior. I can't even imagine the overwhelming awesomeness of a Warrior who was able to continue honing the in ring part of the package.  |

Sweeet! I wasn't sure if somebody was brave enough to open up their million dollar figure or not. Thanks for sharing, man. It looks waaaay better loose! lol I was curious myself if any others opened it. I am stoked I did tho. |
