that is a weird choice. When ur spitballing elite 2pack ideas....u would think Rocky & Faarooq would be somewhere at the bottom of the list. the figs don't look too good either. I want to like that Faarooq, but he still has the too dark skintone. And he looks so small next to rock. But maybe there are more pics that make it look better. Because Faarooq seems to have a new torso mold which is good. So i doubt they'd make a unique mold for just him and make it as skinny as it looks in the pics. And those chicken legs. i dunno....as soon as i saw that rocky/faarooq i instantly said "MUST BUY" there are def some things i like about that faarooq. The removeable belt and hat. The arms. the skintone, long neck and thiqueness are what throwing me off. it looks very much like the old BCA Faarooq from series 4 bad boys Chicago

Will be purchasing two Sasha Banks figs. One to keep MOC and one to display.
I'm kind of stoked to buy my first figure in 13 years.

I'm not a Flashback collector, but holy sh*t, I think I might have to make en exception for Umaga. He looks fan- ing-tastic. Other things I'll be getting include - Elite 40 John Cena, Sami Zayn and Tyson Kidd - Sasha Banks - Bayley - Neville - Adam Rose and The Bunny

Only thing that worries me is there seems to be a lot of exclusives, RSC, TRU, Walmart, Target, Walgreens. It's hard for international collectors to get these. Hopefully stores like Smyths may carry some of them.

I know it's just a figure, but damn, look at those abs on Sasha Banks. Not digging how brown they made her though.

Surfer Sting is his most iconic look. Lets not get into the "Iconic look is the only look I remember..." discussion again. Sting was 1000% more successful as Surfer Sting & wore the look for many years longer then dressing as Brandon Lee. i'll agree that its the more iconic look.....but i know for me personally, we did not get NWA or WCW on the east coast. So i imagine a ton of ppl mostly remember sting from the Nitro era. But also...i feel like they've had sting under contract for at least 15 months, and we don't have a surfer sting yet is silly. just like how they waited 20 months to make NWO hogan. What if Sting gets arrested or is fired or something. POOF Which east coast are you talking about. Here in NJ/NY we got it on TBS every Sat and Sunday. We would watch it every weekend at my grandfather's house until my father decided to get cable. I think going to his In-Laws every weekend got to be to much for my father, because my grandfather always suckered him into helping him with home improvements while my aunt's husband just stayed inside watching tv. lol So once our dad got cable for our house we just went to my grandfather's on Sunday nights for dinner. But we did get the NWA/WCW on the east.

I'm amazed people can even FIND something to complain about, seems to be the trend of the forum since e39. HOF3 HOF box set DM Austin Ringside Nash DX HBK All TRU exclusives Elite 2-pack WM32 Elites All of these are MUST buys for me, hell, I might even buy my first series and get all of e40. Who cares. If you're going to have Owens on the panel you better have something better to show than a skinny basic no one wants

Hopefully stores like Smyths may carry some of them. exactly what i said few pages back.. any of these store exclusives will be 2X the price + the 15\20$ shipping international wallets get burned even worse than yours.

Sorry. Bill forgot you're the only customer that matters. Grow up Stupid, no logic involved in any of this. They're simply stringing people along because they know that's what they want most so they will hand job these two guys as long as they can to build demand and it will backfire bc then those guys won't even be relevant anymore. Stupid no reason not to see an elite Owens yet and that basic Owens was brutal. Just call a spade a spade buddy It's been not even a year yet since Owens debuted buddy. Basics are basics. Not sure what you expected

I've seen a few people say they want it.

And was confused about it what it was.
