Walmart.ca also added the wrestlemania 33 basics. I can't remember if we've seen moc pic yet of those. It's the set with Austin wearing the Dallas 316 shirt. Yeah, we have, sir. I've actually seen them for at least a month, hoards of them in fact, at my local TRU . . . and passed several times on every single one of them (will eventually get Taker maybe). They have come in, sold through, then re-emerged as if they multiplied. Because that's what retail stores do nowadays. Shelves become barren, then the starving collectors act like maniacs buying everything up when the new stuff DOES show up, and hence forth the vicious cycle of over-ordering begins/continues . . .

Here is a sincere, inquisitive inquiry for everyone: Did Neville ever actually wear grey knee pads with the red attire? Regardless whether he indeed did so, which I certainly do not recall — nor have I found any evidence surfacing in searches — I think it looks a bit "off" on the figure.

What belt is that that comes with Steve Austin? Looks like an unpainted Smoking Skull title.

Definitely getting the Warrior and Neville. Eventually might get the rest. Pretty sweet set!

Please pardon my passion, if y'all will, but I must say, I for one am not sure which will go down as the worst injustice between the following, unpainted accessories: the upcoming, essentially worthless TNF basic "Smoking [D]ull" belt or the (un)forgettable classic tag titles that came with BP 42 Edge & Christian! In regards to the latter characters, I would have gotten much better use out of oversized cowboy hats (green & red for E & C respectively) PLUS shades, despite the unlikelihood of such a dual inclusion scenario ever actually coming to fruition. Surely, it would have come down to one or the other, as budget would definitely not have permitted both hats & shades, thus that would reek of incompleteness at that point anyhow. But hey, heck, Matty could have gone extra funky & creatively silly/goofy by opting for some kazoos & streamers, for all I would have cared! Though I suppose some sunglasses would have been the most vital options, as far as pertaining to my few (well-after-the-fact) suggestions. Albeit the hilarity of those foam hats would have been a nice touch, no doubt!
Now of course, while referencing their shades I do mean in proper fashion, such as at least coming close to being color coordinated w/each attire, for instance. In fact, I would have even settled for less, so to speak, by way of plain ol' black lenses & rims for Edge. I cannot claim that such a thing would not have actually been fitting for figures representing that era of Edge, if admittedly a bit bland upon display. Granted, many of us probably have plenty fodder of that ilk lying around, if we felt so inclined to borrow a pair from among countless other figures. Nevertheless, yet another offering of the dark & tinted type (as per usual) would have been alright, I feel. In other words, not something ridiculous looking like red rims for Edge w/blue, gold & white tights designs, as was the unfortunate occurrence in the case of the still excellent E 13 Edge, whereas E 20 Christian's "peepers" looked pretty rad. And that last part there is not only basing a popularly shared opinion on overall accuracy either, as that also takes into account an entire ensemble. All of which indeed assisted in leading to a prime example of a stellar, standout figure, might I add, due in large part to the consistency in color choices throughout! Who would have thought: yellow working with yellow? Go figure!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like a new head/face on Austin.

I just saw that E&C set yesterday. Those tag belts looked horrible. Not only were they the block logo version, but they barely say tag champions on them. Why can't we get Attitude Era versions? They were a different color with a different logo! And I'd much rather have had the big crazy hats with them in that gear than any belts

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like a new head/face on Austin. They've used this head before on RSC exclusive Austin. It's a great looking Austin head scan.

Warrior looks fantastic. I'm definitely getting 2 of these. The head and accesories will look great on the Lost Legends Elite. That's a great idea... I might actually get this basic and a spare Lost Legends to do that.
