E50 at TRU...Oooh YeeEAH! (Loose Pics Added)

Update on Page 25 with most Entrance Greats (minus Rey), Defining Moments, Flashbacks, All Legends, All-Stars, Most HOF (minus Trish) and various RSC Exclusives

Updated again. These hit fast at TRU! My TRU just got the E49 set within the last 10 days and they restocked them once last week. And today they had a fresh case of E50.




I picked up the DM Macho Man today at the Monroe NY WalMart.



The RSC Exclusive Balor Club Finn Balor arrived...
Finn Balor -

My Balor Collection - I think I am just missing the tshirt series and the SummerSlam Elite.



This arrived from Amazon today -
Elite Series 49 Brutus "the Barber" Beefcake -


I passed on this a few times over the last month or two, but decided to actually buy it today.
Elite 48 Cesaro -


I went to the Palisades Center Target today because I saw they had gotten a case of Elites overnight. Unfortunately Brutus was gone. But they did get a case of Basics Series 71 where everyone in the case had at least one figure with a Slammy. I picked up the Seth and Aries with Slammys.

I also picked up the Elite Series 49 "Legend Killer" Randy Orton today...

And this just arrived -
Figuarts Triple H

I picked up Elite Series 47.5 Goldust today at the Monroe NY WalMart.
Elite Series 47.5 Goldust -

This was the rest of their selection this morning. BP were 2 of the Bella's, a Bushwackers, Taker/Kane and possibly 1 Austin/Vince set.

At the Monroe NY Target I ended up picking the Basic Series 70 Flair with a Slammy up today and I got the DVD's from Walmart. I had almost picked up this Flair at the White Marsh MD Target Saturday without a Slammy, but decided to pass on it then. I am glad I did.


I picked this up at Target tonight. It was the only set from the assortment. I am not sure if Triple H is a giant or Road Dogg is to short or a combination of both. I will take loose and comparison pics tomorrow.
Triple H & Road Dogg DX Battle Pack
It is a combo of both. Triple H is taller than his Elite and Road Dogg is shorter than his.


I picked up the new Basic Series 70 Warrior at WalMart. They had everyone minus Flair.



(Sorry HeroesandMartyrs not the best title)
I picked this up at the same KMart I got Styles and Tatanka at last week. Very psyched about this find as it was the figure I truly wanted to find with a Slammy.
Basic Series 68.5 Sting

I found Elites​ Series 48 with AJ Style at the Westwood NJ KMart tonight. I picked up AJ and Tatanka.


4/08/17
I met Bret Hart tonight. He was very quiet but friendly.

This just arrived from Amazon. It arrived inside a box plastic wrapped on a carboard flat.
Elite Series 48 Cactus Jack

Got the Hall and Nash Battle Pack today at Target and WalMart. They need more glue on the BP card as it fell apart on the way to the registers. lol


This arrived today from Amazon....
Elite Series 47 Flyin' Brian Pillman -

I picked up the Retro Warrior and Undertaker today. Of the two The Ultimate Warrior has the most articulation. Four consisting of head, shoulders and waist. Undertaker has three points consisting of head and shoulders.


(Title for HeroesandMartyrs )
I picked this up today at Target across the river. And what a letdown it turned out to be. First I thought/ hoped he would have the EG head, but when we saw the proto pics I could have sworn it had the HOF series 5 head. So right off the bat I was disappointed because I hire this head sculpt. And when I didn't think it could be worse I pushed the button and it felt like I was kicked south of the boarder! Not only is it not Roddy's voice it is without a doubt The worst voice actor ever. I think Flair used his real voice although I am not sure as his was very muffled. So worst Piper head, no socks or kilt and not his voice made this the first Piper I won't buy multiples off. Very disappointing.
HOF Talkers Rowdy Roddy Piper

And I picked the TNF basic Warrior up yesterday at WalMart.

So Friday night our microwave shorted out so we needed to get a new one yesterday. So seeing we had to go out anyway I checked the Target Tracker to see if any of the stores had gotten more HOF figures of the HOF Tough Talkers. No stores received the tough talkers, but one store (Closter NJ) got a case of HOF. So we went there although I knew they wouldn't have a microwave because the store is tiny. I jokingly refer to it as a Target Express because every department seems to be one or two aisles. The Toy Dept is two aisles (one half boys/girls the other is baby/toddlers) Anyway funny story I get to the aisle and see a case of HoF 4 on the pegs. So I got myself one last Sting and a Booker T. Lawler's card was messed up so I wasn't getting it because the person next on my list to help wanted it MiB. But next thing you know this guy reaches in and grabs the Lawler. Then an Edge followed by a Booker and finally a Sting. I mention to him the Sting he grabbed has a paint issue on his face.(Black line across his nose) he says to me it is OK as they are for his son who will open them up anyway. I had my doubts about this, because...

1. He had used that same line on another collector at another Target I saw pick up HoF figures at about 10 days earlier.

2. He was very young looking that his kid had to be under the age of five and chances of him buying four $20 figures of guys the kid probably didn't know seemed slim at best.

3. I had gotten to the store at about 8:05AM because we had to be back home by 9:30 (to take our daughter to get her nails done before she goes back down to collage today) and this guy came flying into the aisle a minute or two after me going right to the WWE figures so it seems likely he had used the tracker.

Anyway back to the story I show him the other Sting with clean paint apps. He looks at both and says it is better and then proceeded takes both. Personally I think he was taking them to resell because why else take the extra messed up face paint Sting also if they are for his son? He could have been a collector picking up for a fellow collector, but I don't see grabbing a poorly painted one to help someone else out. I just find it funny that people use the "it's for my kid" line instead of just owning up that they are a collector or scalper.

HOF Series 4 Booker T -

HoF Sting with "BaF Cole" Hitman arms -



I picked these (Elite Sheamus & Finn vs Joe BP) up today at the Middletown NY WalMart and Monroe Target.



I picked the Elite Series 46(?) Demon Balor up at the Monroe Target this morning...


My Finn Bàlor Collection -(I just put them there for the pic)
I got this at the Middletown WalMart. Unfortunately no Cactus Jack in the display


I forget when I picked this Basic Sheamus up, but I think it was before I found E46 at Target


I picked up two of the Network Spotlight Finn Balor figures today for myself and JokerFC.
Network Spotlight Finn Balor -


This morning I picked up 3 of the HOF Sting figures (2 for me 1 for JokerFC) and a Jerry Lawler from the Riverdale NJ Target. I still need to find a Lawler for JokerFC.
Hall of Fame Series 4 -

Jerry Lawler -


Sting -

Sting Fix-up - I wanted to give him the E30 Hawk arms, but the spare I thought I had are on my Kevin Von Erich so I gave him the e39 arms with the sleeves removed.

And most of my loose Mattel Sting Collection - There's a GAB Sting in the center of the ring with Flair (plus 1 GAB and DM Crow on my legends shelves) A basic Starrcade '90 and the Sting from the Sting/Warrior bp behind the ring (As well as both on my Basics shelves) and an E39 on my elites shelves.


Edge - I wasn't going to get him at first, but someone had picked it up for me and from the HoF 4 ones I had seen this one wasn't nearly as bad so I kept it.




Some Call Him a Martyr, But to Me He's a Slammy Worthy Hero!

HeroesAndMartyrs text me this afternoon asking if I needed the Basic Series 68.5 Sting, a Slammy AJ Styles or a Seth in white and when I said I did he hid 2 Stings, a Styles and Seth for me as well as a Lego Joker. I didn't need the Joker though as I had it already.



I found one each of these today mixed in with the 4 pegs of the Network Spotlight Vince and few E41 Lita figures. WrestleMania HBK, Triple H and Network Spotlight Undertaker


I picked these Basic Series 68 up at Target today for $2.98 each. I originally was just buying two Finn's, but they didn't ring up so the front end person scanned one on her hand held computer and said $2.98. She said they had them in their system as clearance items. I told her that it was wrong because they were new items and should be $10.98 each, but she said they were on clearance. So after I purchased the two Finn figures I went back to the aisle and purchased DDP, Bo and Neville. I left two each of Brock and Kalisto as well as another Neville, Strowman and Dana Brooks. This was at the Monroe NY Target.

And this ML Cyclops was the reason I had went up to that Target. A friend had picked it up for me. I mentioned to him what happened at the registers and he said they must have been put into the system under the Zombies line because they were on clearance for $2.98.



The title was solely made for @heroesandmartyrs

Network Spotlight Vince - I picked Vince up yesterday and the Nanuet NY store. There was a full case out.

Then, Now and Forever Sami Zayn - I picked up Sami along with another Typhoon for a friend at the Monroe NY WalMart on Wednesday night.

And I picked these two figures up at the Airmont/Suffren NY WalMarts yesterday.
Basic Series Triple H - FYI Triple H has the new styled arms under the elbow pads.


And here is myElite series 48 AJ Styles order. I ordered it on Wednesday and it shipped on Thursday. It was supposed to arrive Saturday, but UPS missorted it and it didn't make it to my hub until Saturday. It would have been nice seeing they missorted it causing it to miss my delivery date if UPS delivered it to me yesterday instead of turning it over to my PO to deliver today. But it is what it is.

And the Second Slammy goes to...Me Again. This time like many others I ordered the new Basic Finn off Amazon and he arrived being the Slammy version. And I noticed Finn can't hold the Slammy because he has two closed fists...So my question is has Mattel ever released a figure with two closed fists before? I am drawing a blank on it. Also my Elite AJ order status changed as it shipped today instead of next week like they stated in my order. Also thanks to Old School Collector I received my second BatB 3-Pack today.

And after removing the face paint from the Lex here are my WCW Lex figures. As you can see the eyes didn't come out like I had hoped. lol
I still need another pair of white boots.




...ME! I found my first Slammy figures at Target. They had Goldust and Luke Harper.


A Real Macho Disaster in DC!
* Title credit goes to @heroesandmartyrs *
So we had to take our daughter back down to DC today for the new semester and we stopped at a WalMart down the street from her university. I was hoping to find another BatB set, but unfortunately they didn't have any 3-Packs. They did have one each of the The, Now and Forever series 2 figures. I ended up passing on Sami.


Update 1/9/17-
I picked one up today.


The first thing I did when I got home with the WalMart Exclusive TNF BatB 3-Pack was pop Sting's head off and add some cotton to inside the head to give him a neck.




Lost Legends Wave at WalMart Today (12/14 Update)
I went back to WalMart this afternoon and they had a full case worth of the lost Legends set. So I ended up picking up Jericho and HBK. I thought about getting another Magnum TA, but the one that was there had a huge blotch on his face. It would have been easy enough to remove on Christmas, but not worth the possible fight that would have taken place at WalMart for spending $60 on duplicates.




I hit Target this morning for the Suicide Squad Blu Ray then I went to TRU where they had a e39 Sid, 3 Basic Renee Young figures, 3 DM Cena a couple each of Various Network figures (Austin, Roman & Hunter) and 3+ pegs of the network Bailey. They also had a display box with a bunch of Basic waves (pre B61). They also had three of the new Talking figures. (Seth, Roman and Wyatt) I picked up the Talking Seth. ($15) And for TWD fans they had a lone Daryl with new motorcycle but the handlebars were broke off.





I picked up Tug Boat and Strawman at Target and then I went to WalMart were they had the basic wave with Crews, Strawman, Ziggler etc..they also had one Lost Legends figure on the pegs so I picked up the Lost Legends Warrior.



I received my two Sting figures yesterday and while I am happy with them part of me is a little upset with it only because the WolfPac Sting was done in the opposite. The WolfPac figure they cast the new head in flesh tone and painted the face red and black so I was hoping this would be the same. But this time they did it like the DM. Cast it in white and painted the ears. Which I wouldn't mind if above and behind the ears wasn't still white.
Basic Series (?) Sting


My Black Friday order for Harlem Heat just arrived. I also got two DM figure defender cases for my two Sting's.


Updated 11/23
So this morning the Spring Valley NY Target had the Heenan family set. It only took them almost a full year before they got it in stock. I found mine at the Hackensack NJ store back on New Year's Day.

I received the Ric Flair & Charlotte Battle Pack today from Amazon. I ordered it Monday for $14.99. Those knee pads need to be placed correctly unfortunately it will be in the closet until Christmas...so that will eat at me until I can open it and lower them. lol




I had a fantastic time meeting Sting tonight. He was very friendly and accommodating.

My wife and I didn't stay for the matches because the ring wasn't up yet and my back was bothering me already with my leg going numb so we left as we had to stop at WalMart on the way home. And while there I purchased this.... Ultimate Maniacs Macho Man

So now I found this wave at Walgreens and WalMart and have yet to find Tug Boat.



Glad I am not not a MIB collector. That's right not in a padded envelope or any padding in the envelope. Just a plain Manila envelope that the figure was tearing halfway out of the back when it arrived.


I picked up Lord Steven Regal and another Seth at WalMart Thursday morning.


I just picked up The Narcissist at WalMart.


RSC Exclusive Wolfpac Sting -This arrived in today's mail. The painted flesh tone on the torso looks much closer to matching without the camera flash. On the plus side this head looks to be cast in flesh tone and painted red/black unlike the DM that was cast in white.

And I picked these up at TRU this morning -



Bow Down to the King -




I picked this up at WalWart this morning. I was originally going to pass on his Elite, because I felt the basic I had was enough. But seeing they didn't have the ML exclusives I drove up there looking for I figured why not?


I picked the TNF Bam Bam Bigalow up weekend down in the DC area. They also had two Breeze and a Rusev, but I have no desire to own them so I left them on the pegs.


Beach Blast '92 Sting - He should have pink boots, but trying to paint the black boots pink would look horrible so I just kept them black. If I ever get another pair of white boots I will pay t those pink.

And a friend picked up two of the Walgreen's ML Punisher this weekend. And I met up with him today.

"SAY IT!...SAY IT!"..."NOOOooo!"...
Introducing the Challenger to my right from Virginia Beach, Virginia weighing 242lbs the vastly popular Magnum TA...Finally we have this figure in our hands. I can't believe it took close to 30 years to get our first Magnum TA figure.


Loose Pics -

The NWA -


Starrcade '85 "I Quit" Match -




Today I picked up another Anvil at the Airmont/Suffen NY Walgreens. They had 2 Anvil, 2 KO, 1 Kofi (?) and 1 Samoa Joe. And not to beat this dead horse, but I just looked at Anvil's upper torso and it is molded in flesh tone and painted black...so why was Bret done in the opposite?
I gave him smaller biceps.

I'm Cool...I'm Cocky...I'm Bad.


Time to get Funky Like a Monkey...I've Fallen on Hard Times.
I picked up the Dusty Rhodes w/ring set today at Bergen mall Target in NJ. There were still 3 more when I left.

With my NWA/WCW doubles (forgot my doubles of Malenko and DDP)

I received 2 more Basic series 62 Sting figures yesterday so I did some more work on my Clash of the Champions 1 Sting...

The Clash of the Champions 1 Sting

Here was my local TrU this morning. They still had 4 of the Renee Young figures, but received on today's truck 1 case of DM Warrior, 2 cases of DM Sting (laced boots) 1 case of E41. I didn't get anything.

And here is Triple H with the DM Sting torso. I am thinking if the skin tones match the Sting torso would look great on a Warrior.



GAB '90 Sting - with Triple H torso and basic Brodus Clay boots.
Found these today at the Airmont NY WalMart. Passed on them.



I keep putting off buying the SummerSlam Undertaker until the "Next Time" I see it. Well, the Next time finally arrived yesterday...


And a few Fixups. This Sting is as tall as the GAB figure. I used the E30 Hawk with Pillman's knees and shins. I just need to add the scorpion.

and a larger NWA Road Warriors. I still have to add Warriors to Animals tights and give him knee pads.


Thanks to heads up in the other thread by fredphred15 my wife and I took a drive down to the Bergen county mall Target and sure enough there was one Heenan Family set on the pegs. Unfortunately Studd had a huge paint blotch on his nose, but an easy enough fix if that was the only one. I scanned it and it showed more in back and asked an employee if they could see if it was this set, because of the paint blotch on Studd. He gladly went in back and pulled out a fresh case off Heenan Family sets so I got the best one. I then stopped at the TRU next to the mall to see if hey had the Suicide Squad figures. They didn't, but I bumped into someone I am friendly with at my local TRU who said he saw them at the Rt17 store last night. Seeing I had to pass in on he way home we stopped in and found 2 Batman and 3 Headshot figures left. So I got the two best painted.



I just found these at TRU today. They also had a case of DM Sting (laced boots) and another case of the Ringmaster.


After learning Sunday that B62 was on Amazon I had my Brother-in-law order me two more B62 Sting figures with his Prime. And these arrived crushed by them today. The box was a make shift box cut down to the height of the bubble. Hell the sides of the box slid out as they weren't even taped shut. Luckily I am a loose collector and these were just to finish off a couple of customs.

Here's the two customs Sting figures I was waiting to finish. I didn't have anymore Bulldog torsos and I did like the look of the Basic on Triple H's torso...so I used what I had laying around. (E30 Hawk and a Luger torso)



I found the Ringmaster today at TRU. They also had the SummerSlam Battle Packs, but no singles.
I picked up two of the Ringmaster figure. I just added the loose pics. Yes his trunks are green. I would say they are a pine green.


Speaking of the Ringmaster I was watching an old match from RAW where it was the Ringmaster vs Jannetty and Austin must have already told Vince he was going to be Stone Cold, Because Vince mentioned a couple time how "Stone Cold" the Ringmaster was.


And these two DC Icons came the other day.


So yesterday I decided I will remove my Elite and diva collection to make room for the FB and HOF that have been piling up since Christmas without a spot on my Legends/DM/FB/HOF/EG/Heritage shelves. So I removed all these and as I buy more FB I will combine the Modern Elites I kept out with my Basic collection keeping my favorite attire for each regardless of it being an Elite or basic.

So this is what My Elite display turned into...







And here is an old pic of my Legends setup. There has been many figures added to this such as the GAB Sting, RSC Jericho & Hall, Network figures, Horsemen set to name a few. But this display needs to be dusted off before I take updated pics of these shelves.


Terminate the Nasty Renee Young Warming Hard at My Local TRU
You know who that title is for.


Nasty Boys As I mentioned a couple weeks ago these were going to be my Father's Day gift, but I finally got around to taking some loose pics of them.


I picked up the Triple H with corrected knee pads at Walgreens this morning.





Starrcade 1990 Sting -

Found these today at Target. But they will be a Father's day gift. They also had the Woods and an E41 Funk, all placed behind a couple of e36(?) Bo Dallas figures.



Seeing I was updating my Hart Foundation pics I figured I would just add the Triple H pics here also...


My Hart Foundation just arrived from RSC. When I preordered them they were supposed to be a late anniversary present from my wife, but turned up being an early one as our Anniversary is tomorrow.
23 years and I never won a fight. lol


My 2 Basic Series 62 Sting figures arrived today and what I was afraid of was true. He is to short...I was hoping it was just the angle of the pics, but the legs are very short.
The plus side is the face paint on both of mine is very clean.
Basic Series 62 Sting -


And here are figures I never got around to posting pics of...
