Does anyone have any idea why Mattel sculpted those hands in the weirdest position possible, and then only gave them to Latino wrestlers? Also was it difficult fitting an old style hand in the new arms? Why? No idea. But they were simple to switch just heat the forearm and pop them in. Dunno, just seems weird that only Rey and Sin Cara have ever used them. And they look strange. But the pegs fit the new arms good?

Yeah I don’t know why they molded them in that pose. But yes they fit the new forearms without any modifications to either part.

I was gonna wait till retail for Balor but PJ's pics convinced me to order one with basic 100. That back Tat looks awesome.

Nobody got the E70 Balor title reference? I guess nobody used to watch Psych. That was from “Psych the Musical” UPDATED 8/17* This just arrived from Amazon. Loose Pics added to page 1.

Pretty annoying, that after waiting so long for that Balor - and requesting it every chance I got, it's finally available... and I still can't get my hands on it (custom fees stopping me ordering it). Hopefully it'll be in the next sale. Won't reach here for a while yet, as we just got (some of) E69 at Smyths online and in-store.

first off PJ, I know you only collect figures of wrestlers that actually entertain you, so I'm sad to know that you actually like Roman Reigns secondly - Roman never respects the belt to wear it around his waist; he always drapes it over his shoulder like a hobo.

Well, I don’t dislike him. 😃 When the Shield debut he was my least favorite of the three (Rollins, Ambrose and Reigns) but overtime he surpassed Ambrose for second place. He doesn’t even have the title now. Right after I took the pics I gave the title along with the t-shirt from the Top Picks 2019 Rollins to the extra Top Picks 2018 Rollins I purchased yesterday. lol Unless I find Basic 100 or the Basic Warrior and Balor this Roman is probably my last wwe purchase until September when these all arrive from Amazon.

PJ Do you know who's legs Ricochet uses or what they're similar too? Just so I can get an idea since I only have Ciampa right now. I want to gauge how big he'll be compared to others. Thanks!

Thanks! out of the box Ciampa is too short and Ricochet is too tall - so he'll be head & shoulders taller than your retail Ciampa - if that helps. Most people are cool with it, but a Ciampa fix is using either any Elite Bobby Roode or E59 Zack Ryder thighs, and a Ricochet fix is using E44 Sin Cara calves. To get them approximately around the heights they need to be.

Good stuff. Man, that new Miz figure deserves more praise around here, what an amazing fig.

I think he uses the Bret Hart thighs and Legends Pillman knees and calves. Not sure what people use to shorten him. For Ciampa I used the 4-Pack Flair thighs because Ciampa is cut but not jacked. Also if you look at my Ciampa comparison pic that will be about the size difference between Ricochet and Ciampa out of the box. Ricochet is slightly taller than my Ciampa fixup. (Not much though maybe the top of his head)

I really like the blue design on Reigns vest, really makes that figure pop in your pictures. That’s actually the first time I’ve even paid any attention to this figure, because I already have a Roman and don’t really need another. But your pictures may have talked me into getting this one. Interested to see how this one would look with the white souled shoes from the Elite a few Series ago.
