I wouldn't have hated if they put the RSE scan on it to get that back out there. I agree, but then I'm sure people would have whined that it devalued their RSC exclusive. I dunno, if you're collecting wrestling figures to make a profit and not for fun, then what's the point? I do hope they make a new Austin head eventually, I believe they've only made two. The RSC one and the same one they've been using. Someone correct me if I am wrong of course. I REALLY wish that we got the RSC Austin scan on this figure.

Yeah. Not surprising honestly. It's where I found Razor, Sting and Undertaker first.

Stupid question maybe. I never owned the original, does Austin come with a cloth vest?

I'm pretty happy with Mattel lately, and I know this was a quicky but my god, this is a bad figure. In 2010 it was fine, but we've had a better Austin figure and if they were gonna just throw a re release in there why did they pick a figure that's already been made like three times. That head is really bad. They should've used the RSC head. This is basically just three belts. That's the only reason to get it. I really want those belts too but not enough to buy the same Austin I've already bought twice before.

They rereleased it because a lot of collectors and kids missed out on him before and quite honestly, stone cold sells. Its also a way to get both belts out to mass retail. You'd probably complain no matter who it was.

But nah, this one's great.

It needed buffer arms and the RSC head. They have all the parts they just for some reason don't want to use them.

If people are paying nearly $30 for a figure they should be getting the perfect parts.

These aren't stocks. I have the rsc stone cold, cactus Jack etc etc. I don't care if they release old figures that are sought after, ie diesel, mankind Kane whatever. The figures are good, I want those. I don't care if I can no longer sell my figure for a hundred bucks.

But nah, this one's great. Because this place would be in an uproar if it was an exact re-release. Figures great and is a great move buy mdt to release this.

Is this the first mass produced widely available Austin elite in the UK? About bloody time.
Shame I've already imported the HOF fig about 6 months ago. Pass for me but glad others in the UK finally have a chance at getting an elite Stone Cold.

I'll tell you exactly how this will go for my state..... Every other state gets the new Dm Austin first. Then cases of defining moments start shipping to my state but it's the undertaker figure from 2010 still.
