A COUPLE OF EXCELLENTLY EXECUTED ADDITIONSJust thought I'd update with a couple of my latest gets. As I mentioned on the first page, I was always a Warrior fan growing up, but after his hiatus in late '92 I found myself switching my allegiance to The Hitman. The original Hart Foundation were always my favourite tag team and he definitely stood out as "something different" during his singles run so I was on board with Bret until he jumped ship in '97 (I was never interested in WCW). After trawling around on the 'net and spending more than I really should've done I managed to get what are in my opinion the 2 best Elite Hitman figs to go with my existing Hart Foundation version....       One thing that really stands out is how "premium" the Defining Moments figure seems. It's the first time I've had one of the original run actually in my hands as they were never released in the UK; I don't know whether it's the slightly larger box, or the quality of the accessories, but it just seems a lot more special than more current DM releases. The Wrestlemania X throwback is great too, I remember watching at the time as a kid and thinking there was no way he was leaving with the title after losing to Owen in the opening bout. That end scene though with all the other babyfaces holding him aloft with the title in his hand was a great moment for a 10 year old Hitman fan though!

That dm Bret hart is like the 2nd or 3rd figure I ever bought and it is one of the main ones responsible for getting me hooked. One of mattels finest examples. That one and dm macho man were the best of the original defining moments run imo.
Great additions!

Was that a bloody Kevin Schwantz Collection at the top? And was that helmet autographed? Hi all, I'm a long time lurker from the UK and thought I'd sign up at last and share what I have so far. Nothing staggering by some of you hardcore guys' standards, but it's steadily increasing.  |

I am still waiting for them to make more elite bret harts in different attires (still waiting for the pink top, black bottom attire) . hope that hart foundation one wont be the last one we get |

I'd like Survivor Series '96 and Royal Rumble '94 attires at least. |
