Sucks there was only the two figures for you, but if they are anything like what I saw today you got the one that will be a pain. I saw at least 3 of everyone except Yoko who they had none of.

Nice pickups. I still need to finish the first hall of fame series. Sometimes I feel like it would be easier to win the lottery then find hof series 2.

I might get the Hogan and Eddie (to display with Rey) at some point but Tito was the only one I felt was a must have for me.

U doing the matador custom? I might if I get another Tito and a El Matador. But if I do it won't be until next month as my next large purchase will be on the 23rd when Arkham Knight is finally released. That's $100 before the $40 season pass. So my spending is pretty much done for the month.

Hulkamania 4 LIFE, hey man just wanted to let you know, I opened up my second HoF Hogan tonight and decided to paint the little molded hairs on top of his head. If you get a spare (which I know you did, brother) I would definitely recommend doing the same if you want some variety in your Hogan collection. Like I said, I'm keeping one as-is because I like the total skullet look, but since I have a second, painting the hair was a welcomed change and it looks pretty neat! I'm sorry I don't have any pics to share at the moment, but I will try to post some tomorrow. As I'm sure you have seen, the hair is very faint, but their sculpt is definitely defined enough to be noticeable. I use citadel/games workshop paints, mixed some yellow and white until I got the proper shade and used a fine detail brush. While I had the right tone for his hair I also fixed up the mustache on both figures by filling in around the edges where the deco 'hit' missed. Some people complained that his mustache was too thin, and while I don't think it's that bad, this certainly helps that issue. I'm just very OCD and wanted these perfect

Thanks for the pics! I just found 2 myself @ Target yesterday but haven't gotten around to opening them yet. Thank you for posting the picture with the Jakks weight belt...I was wondering that myself. It looks soooo much better than what Mattel came up with which is just lazy IMO. I sure hope they fix these belts for the nWo/2002 versions.

I sure hope they fix these belts for the nWo/2002 versions. Agreed. The belt 100% needs to be redone. Congrats on the buys mate, always look forward to seeing your threads and the cool pics.
