PJ do you think that Piper scan with a few modifications like a van dyke goatee could pass off for a WCW Piper? I don’t think so unless you can age it some how and thin it out a bit. It’s too young looking for WCW Dang! I think my closest option would be to hair swap or wait for Mattel to possibly give us a mid-lengthed hair version. Btw, how’s the blue on this Piper? It looks darker than the previous Pipers we’ve gotten. I think it looks more accurate. |

I’ll say it again…I am loving this figure.    This may be the first Coliseum Collection wave to sell out quickly... It looks like you are going to buy up all of the sets just so you can have every look of Piper you need... |

UPDATED 12/16*My Basic Top Picks Cody Rhodes arrived today from Amazon. And I am very disappointed with how it came out. Especially seeing how good the Basic Series 143 Cody Rhodes was. This one uses some wrinkled up shins that are too short so this one is shorter than the B143 Cody.

I do plan on buying a third set on Jan 1 once my next pension check arrives. Maybe give it some time. The Jake/Rude series and the Hogan/Funk series both lasted long enough to make the BOGO sales. If they are still around when the Hart Foundation set comes out, maybe the Piper/Steele set will be a Buy One Get One Free. |

Sure that would be four more Steele’s than I need, but I could display Roddy with all three heads both with kilt/shirts on and three with the kilts/shirts off. lol I’m getting all tingley just thinking about it. 😋😛😀    Off comes the robe and Mr Wonderful looks like a Greek God! |

I havent bought a basic or battle pack from Amazon in years so just out of curiosity do they actually ship them in a box or do they just use bubble mailers?

Both the Cody and the HHH/Austin Set had either shipping bubble or shipping paper inside the boxes. But Hogan was in an over side box along with something for my wife without anything protecting them from bouncing around in the box. |

Did I mention I love this figure? Where did you get the awesome Pipers Pit back drop? Looks great. A couple years ago it was the box used for the Roddy Piper Mystery/Loot crate. |
