I gracefully woke up from sleep that lasted for the duration of eight hours, thirty-two minutes and twelve seconds. In the afforementioned, I could see him in my dreams. Rather, I could see "it" in my dream. There is stood before me. The sweet plastic. The sweet, articulate plastic covered in paint that would make Picasso realize that he's just not that good. Red... black... white... it was a masterpiece. Following this dream, I got on my laptop and hurried over to Ringside Collectibles. "Elite 41" was what I saw and joy was what I felt. There it was. At long last, Finn Balor was there. The pinnacle of plastic. The Demon has ascended and my bank account has descended! Finally... Finn is coming home. I didn't buy it, nor do I plan to. |

If you make a stupid thread, you should expect some sarcastic replies.
This is one of those threads.

It's called the Finn Balor figure. Once there was a Finn Balor figure. It was so cool that everyone bought it. The end.

I was only 9 years old.
I loved Finn Balor. I had all the shirts, watched all of his matches, and loved his theme song.
I pray to Finn every night before bed, thanking him for the life I've been given.
"Finn is love", I say, "Finn is life".

A time honored tradition in these parts when a huge pre order finally becomes a reality. You know the drill ... Tell us what happened, what you were thinking, and how you celebrated your pre order of Elite 41 Finn Balor. Take us through your own personal story. I'll share mine after a few... Aren't you worried about the fact the last time he did the demon, it was different than the Elite 41 deco so now the figure is outdated? We don't know the final paint application on elite 41, therefore we do not know that it is yet outdated. |

I think what he means is that is a computer rendered image. They can change the paint apps in a week if they wanted to. |

They can change the paint apps in a week if they wanted to. Im pretty sure they have to be set on paint apps. Something as complex as demon paint vs the outdated Cena colors, etc. It probably takes them awhile to get the deco to come out how its supposed to. Theres a lot to transfer from design to finished printed product. Even with flat printing. |

The figures are being release in late January, which means that they are already WAY too far into production to be making entire paint application changes. They're likely putting on the finishing touches now, and we'll likely get proto images in a few weeks. |

Yeah a week was an overstatement lol What I meant to get across is he's saying that it is still a remederes image and technically could've been changed at some point in development. |

Not sure who Balor is. He must be really good. Everyone seems to like him.
