Really wish my Elite85 back order would get in...That Liv looks great but holy crap shes tiny. How does she compare to the likes of like Io & Sane? same size as Io, Bliss & Kairi just checked.

Interesting. Their scaling is so off on the women now...at least they're not all getting the generic bodies though

got a bunch of stuff from Ringside & Target earlier this week Ringside Exclusive WrestleMania 12 Ultimate Warrior
Glad we finally got this version of Warrior. I was very surprised how different the material is for this duster compared to the first Defining Moments with a similar duster. This one is much more light weight. Triple H/Jeff Hardy 2 Pack
Honestly, at first I wasn't really sure why I ordered this, I'm good with the Ultimate HHH and have a million Jeff Hardy's, but after having it in hand, I realize it is different enough that I'm glad I ordered it. Legends 9 Ted Dibiase (chase)
I went to Target looking for NECA TMNT (with no luck) and randomly stumbled on the chase Dibiase. I had given up hope of finding it with Legends 10 hitting, so I was shocked to say the least. Legends 10 Vader
This came from Target.com the other day, love the V hands, probably going to put them on 1 of the other 2 Vader figures if somehow this version doesn't make the cut on my shelf. Series 120 Scarlett
I completely forgot that I ordered the regular in the full body suit AND the chase on two different orders. I meant to cancel the regular and just go with the chase once the pictures were revealed, but here we are, now I have both. I have not opened the regular yet, but the chase looks great.

was waiting to post these until I got my hands on the Ultimate 9 Flair and Austin, but I shipped them to my girlfriends house and haven't gone to get them yet, these arrived over the last few weeks from Amazon, and found the chase Toni at Target. Amazon Fan Takeover Randy Orton
I only got this because it's from WrestleMania 20, which was my first live WrestleMania, I opened the figure, but it needs to be heated with a blow dryer cause the arms wont budge, but I forgot to do that so I didn't get any loose pics. X-Pac
I think I voted for the 123 Kid figure, not because I didn't want this one, but because I never bought the WWE/NWO Hall or Nash so it felt out of place for me. It's still a pretty cool figure. ChristianI don't understand how the white gear WrestleMania 20 figure didn't win the vote, that gear was awesome. This figure is nice, but I'm 99% sure I have the exact figure from an earlier elite set (TRU exclusive??). Weapon nXt Johnny Gargano
I am a sucker for most of the gear Gargano wears, this was no different, I love it, really glad they were able to get this attire out. Series 117 Chase Toni Storm
I have the regular figure, but Toni is one of my favorites so when I saw this at Target I decided to grab it too. other pick ups, more pics in their respective threads!

Still think that X-Pac looks old.
I just got the regular Toni to go with my chase. I originally thought I only wanted the chase but when I realized that she was specifically sculpted for the regular attire I wanted that one as well.
Most of these are really good, very jealous about the D+ wave for ML, but...
I just noticed that on the chase Scarlett, they used the Full-Shirt Mold torso for her crop top. The wrinkles extend below her painted shirt. Wow. I'm glad I didn't get her now. That would have bugged the crap out of me! I'll happily keep my repainted bodysuit one.

Anyone mess with the X-Pac bandana at all? The knot in the back looks good but he looks like he's swimming in it in the front. My 'adjusting' days are pretty much done but I'd be willing to break out some scissors or something if there's an easy way to plug that in like on some of his other figs.
Also, same with the Kane mask...the hair makes sense but I feel like a mask with an adjustable/elastic strap would work better. Can imagine that probably would've been a pain in the neck to tool, though.

got a bunch of stuff I kept forgetting to post about the last month or so from Ringside, eBay & Walmart. Elite 85 Undertaker
had to have a figure to represent Taker's last match. Elite 85 Aleister Black
Mattel has always made great Aleister figures, this one is really nice, love the entrance jacket. Elite 85 Kama
Tremendous looking figure, I really hope we get a Nation Kama to complete that stable, but this one is really awesome. Elite 86 Triple H
I was so on the fence about this figure because the pants looked damn near blue to me, but in hand I like it a lot more than I expected. Elite 86 Sid Justice
Got it so I can display without the referee stuff on my WCW shelf, pretty solid. Series 122 Chelsea Green
I think the scan is pretty damn spot on for this figure, and it's pretty good for a basic. nWo 2002
After getting the nWo '02 X-Pac from Amazon I got itchy for the Hall and Nash that were released a few years ago, so I went back and grabbed them. Ultimate Stone Cold Steve Austin
This falls into the same category that Cena and Rock did, you don't think you need it, but once you have it, you're glad you got it. It's really nice and obviously the definitive SCSA Ultimate Ric Flair
could be 1 of my favorite Ultimates so far, the robe is fantastic, the scans are great, the 4 Horseman hands are great, easily one of the best they've done.

Woof! I did not realize that Flair robe was so big! Kinda makes me not want it now. I was never sold on the pink to begin with and with that much floof... it's gonna stick out like a sore thumb on my shelf. I think I'll pass on that one. Thanks for the photo though!
The stone cold ultimate, however, I must have.
I agree that the chelsea green figure is lovely and the purple stands out just the right amount from the crowd. Nice to know that we only got one of her (two with the chase) and it's lovely.
I also picked up that Black figure but, now that he's All Elite, I sort of want a suited Malachai Black figure more.
I got Boneyard Taker and immediately went to walmart to get the Slamcycle. He'll be sitting on his chopper on my shelf once it's built.
Finally, the more I see that Kama, the more I want him and I really have no interest in Kama as a character. At ALL. But the figure is just so nice that I'm feeling the need to get one somehow.
Loving the collection. Keep going!

got a bunch of awesome stuff for my bday last week between my family and girlfriend, posted all the non-wrestling stuff in the other figures board if interested! WWE Legends 10 DDP
The scan on this is really really great, I LOVE that we finally have Diamond Cutter hands!! BANG! Brutus Beefcake
I think this figure looks way better than the flashback, a lot more realistic, I never realized how cartoony the Barber figure head is until I got this one. My figure has messed up eyebrows, but thankfully the glasses kind of block it. Elite 87/Ultimate Rock/Series 123 OtisPretty unfortunate how long this figure took to come out, completely different gimmick and look. The selling point is the unique MITB lunchbox thing which is an accessory I didn't think we'd see. Braun Strowman
Another unfortunately timed figure, I also have zero recollection of him wearing this shirt? I admit I did not watch a lot of WWE in 2020 so it's probably something that slipped by me. AsukaReally nice upgrade for Asuka, not much to say besides that. Apollo Crews
Worlds better than his first elite, it's almost crazy to see them next to each other, I was always content with the first elite Apollo, then I got this and realized how terrible the first is. New US title is very nice. Santos Escobar
I don't know if it's my masked head or everyone's but it doesn't really sit well on the neck, which is a shame. Love the unique knee pads they went with and the figure overall is very nice. Also the updated NXT CW title is great. Candice LeRae
Big fan of Candice so I am happy to finally have a figure of her, the wings on the jacket make the figure a pain to put on my shelf in almost any spot, especially since she's so short, but a really great figure! Dexter Lumis
For a basic, it's actually decent, the legs were nearly impossible to move at first, but I got them to bend finally. Jake Atlas
The figure is kind of plain and obviously really bad timing, and it made me realize I'm not sure if I ever saw a full match with him in it. Ultimate Edition 10 The Rock
I passed on the Cena from this set cause I already have the Rumble Ultimate, but I needed this to replace my '13 Rock from a few years ago. It's really great, the scans are all nice, the hands add a lot and the articulation is obviously great. Macho Man Slim Jim container
I think this came out a few years ago randomly on Amazon (?), but was originally intended to be used at 7-Eleven or something, can't remember. I casually mentioned it in passing to my girlfriend a few months ago that I wanted it for my Macho display, and she found one for me!! I love it, so cool. still trying to track down Legends 11, was able to order Macho on the Target app, but still need Hall and Bam Bam, and potentially Studd.

got my order of Elite 88 & Survivor Series 2021 Elites the other day Survivor Series Bret Hart
not gonna say anything that hasn't been already said about the scan, we all know, however I always loved this attire for Bret and that match with Austin so I had to have it. Survivor Series Hulk Hogan
I love the new skin color for Hogan, definitely MUCH better than previous figures, the eyes on mine are even more cracked out than others so that's a bummer. Elite 88 KUSHIDA
The figure really came out pretty great, I'm not the biggest KUSHIDA guy, but it's nice to finally have him. Elite 88 MVP
Is this an entirely new torso for MVP? I can't place where it had been used before, but it feels different to me, I could be wrong though. Great figure and crazy to believe it's been almost 80 Elite sets since we've had an MVP. Elite 88 Rey Mysterio
It's new enough that I didn't feel bad adding another Rey to my collection, the colors are really nice too, and I'm glad it will match Dominik. Elite 88 Trish Stratus
I don't think it's as terrible as some pictures looked, but the scan is still not great, and it seems that she has a painted upper body because if you look close enough you can see the black paint underneath. Elite 88 Roman Reigns
Never thought I'd actually be excited for a Roman, but I love this figure, it's pretty much perfect, finally the gold gauntlet, love the Head of the Table shirt, great scan, excellent figure. Elite 88 Riddle
A HUGE upgrade over the previous Riddle. The other one is embarrassing next to this one if you take off the shirt and jackets. How that first elite ever saw the light of day is beyond me, but kudos to Mattel for actually listening and changing the SPrEAdSheEtz. Legends 11 Big John Studd
I already have the Studd from that Heenan 4 pack, so I haven't opened this one yet, only really want the robe, which I think is kind of crazy for $20, so I'm still debating.

Awesome pics! I was hoping the Hulk Rules shirt would look better when closed - on all the pics I've seen, the two sides never seem to match-up properly...

So if anyone wants to make a Nita Strauss custom to pair with their Ultimate Nakamura figure...

You're right -- the Roman is amazing. Those Hogan eyes are truly awful though -- are you going to seek a replacement/refund?

I used to also think that Apollo Crews first elite was really good but holy hell do those pics prove that wrong.

Awesome pics! I was hoping the Hulk Rules shirt would look better when closed - on all the pics I've seen, the two sides never seem to match-up properly... yeah I almost considered using the Storm Collectibles Hogan shirt to put on this one, I understand they want the rip effect, but I wish it was just a solid shirt. You're right -- the Roman is amazing. Those Hogan eyes are truly awful though -- are you going to seek a replacement/refund? na, it's brutal, but it's gonna be a hassle to send back, if I find one in store maybe I'll grab another. I used to also think that Apollo Crews first elite was really good but holy hell do those pics prove that wrong. couldn't agree more, I was always cool with it, and then when I got 87 I was floored by how bad it really was lol.
