I'm on the fence about posting these, as the forum is flooded with pics of these guys already.... but I think these might be my last significant pickups for a while, as I feel pretty caught up at the moment, so I'm just going to dump them & then you guys probably won't hear much out of me for a while! God Bless The Target Tracker! Saw that 8 new HOF figs were added to my local Target overnight.... had to wait until after work to go, but found one full set still on the pegs when I got there. I passed on Guerrero. The face scan is just too ridiculous for me. I might pick it up at a later time, but since I was already dropping $60+ bucks for Tito/Hogan/Yoko, I decided to give my wallet a break & not buy a figure that I don't want that much.... Let's get to the good stuff! Tito Santana - For now, I'm keeping this in the box.... I'm thinking that I probably won't display it loose, and I might actually have a chance to get it signed.... so, for now, Tito, in the box you'll stay.... I may decide to open it later, though.... Yokozuna - the detail they put into this guy is amazing. You can tell they really tried hard to properly capture his large posterior.... and the face scan is fantastic, much better than the original (which I passed on when I saw it at retail several years ago). And now I finally have the original World Tag Team Belts! Thank you, Mattel! Hulk Hogan - this may be one of my newest favorite figures. I'm a huge Hulk Hogan fan, and I enjoyed this era of Hogan's career.... I'm glad they gave him the smaller torso, as he did drop some significant weight during this period of his career. Awesome figure! Welcome to my collection, Brother! If anyone was wondering how he looks with a different shirt.... And, the Tag Team Belts now have a home! I was surprised that the belt just barely fits Animal, though.... I might need to find an extension.... Thanks for looking!

Super Flair fan who's also a Hogan fan? Does not compute! There were two distinct camps back in the day, it was a PWI dream match

Congrats on your purchases. I wonder if Tito still owns (or goes to) his hair salon? If he does I wonder how many from Morris county NJ will just stop in with their figure for him to sign? Does your Yoko suffer from the mixed upper arms that many have been reporting? It looks like his right is smaller. As for Hogan that lifting belt is a joke. Both Toy Biz and Jakks released better lifting belts. Other than the belt it's a very nice looking figure. Does the bandanna come off? Super Flair fan who's also a Hogan fan? Does not compute! There were two distinct camps back in the day, it was a PWI dream match Is that an El Matador in your Sig? If so whose head did you use for it?

That Hulk Hogan figure is amazing! The belt could have been better but it still looks great!

Great pickups. I like the shirt with Tito but I bet he ends up warming pretty hard over time.

Great pick ups and great pics. That's exactly who has my only set of tag titles too. Seeing I picked up 3 Arn and 2 Tully. I have one set on the e30 Road Warriors and one on Arn and Tully. The last belt is on my custom Hitman. (RRH head, arms and lower body and Bushwhackers torso)

Its great to see Hogan has the smaller torso.....as you say man he was smaller in 1993 when he returned. This figure is DAMN close to being a BATB Hogan too.....DAMN close.
I wonder will we ever see Strike Force from Mattel since they have both guys under contract? Would make a GREAT Battlepack. For some reason I don't see them getting elites.

I've seen Tito advertised for some indy shows that aren't necessarily out of my driving range, so I'm keeping him packaged in case I decide to go for a signature.... I'm really stumped trying to figure this "Yoko Arm" thing out.... I think mine is okay? Sometimes, I look at it, and think they're different, other times, I look at it, and think they're the same.... so, I figure, if it's that hard for me to tell, I guess it doesn't really matter....
