Would that I still had little more to fret over in life than the quality of my wrestling action figures on a day when the manufacturer of said toys just dumped a metric ton of highly demanded figures on the collector base. I'm happy as hell that we're finally getting a 2005 Eddie Guerrero. It's weird that, when comparing the feelings invoked by either figure, the one that resonated louder with you, enough to prompt you to make a thread, was your gripe over arms.

I actually get your rant. I think the old ripped arms look better for him. As for a current Randy, I believe they should update his mold for a more wider torso and thicker legs. He’s not as lean as he used to be. Those ripped arms they gave Randy would work well for the Rick Rude elite. Not sure why Mattel keeps giving him those super small arms. It’s similar to how I feel about the crow stings. Mattel keeps giving him those super ripped arms when the original proto (dm) had hawk/Bret arms. Those arms look great on Sting.

The arms are fine for Randy. I was glad when they started giving him the DM Steamboat arms with the Elite series 35 Orton. Now I agree they along with the thighs they’ve been giving Dolph since E19 are way to large for him, but I have zero issue with them being on Randy. Fair enough, I think they look alright on Buddy Murphy too. I think they work for Murphy, because they make his head look to be a better scale. I feel the Murphy head is a bit to large.

Yeah, he's nowhere near as lean as he used to be. But for a 2002/2003 Randy he should have his Elite 1-35 arms. The bigger problem is that whatever shoulders that go with those arms don't move very good. I've had a lot of figures with those shoulders and they never move right.

Some nice looking figures but nothing I want. Hopefully there is something I want before they are done with updates on Monday. What are you looking for? Legit question.

Have they said anywhere if the bottom of the Liz skirt is removable or not?

Just saw the reveals after getting home from work. I was popping big time for Superstar Billy Graham, Hollywood, SS Liz and the LJN homage Jake. The reveals were really strong in my opinion.

Wish Kane would just come with a third head with the mask sculpted on. The removable mask never looks right. Seriously. The second release of this Kane and we still can’t have the mask on with a goatee. I won’t even worry with them leaving the knee pads out again.

Duuuuddeeee .... SO MUCH YUUUSSS ! in these reveals !!
Man ... finally .... I’ve always wanted an LJN remake of Jake Roberts since I started collecting back in the BCA days ... thank you so very very much for making this 🤘🏻
The entire reveal day was beyond spectacular. I’ve already pre-ordered the 3 DoD S1 that I wanted, so I won’t have to track those down.
If there are more legends and flashbacks to come ... then I’m gonna be flat out broke lmao

I think it was more of where the business was heading after him. But he knew the business had to change. I don't think he did that many fan conventions either. I know he did one with Bruno because it was a big deal. But outside of that, he was done with wrestling and wanted to live a low profile life. You mean like he hated the cartoony stuff like Bruno? Yeah but I don't remember Pedro coming out like Bruno on the steroid thing. Pedro wasn't a fan of some of the over selling either. As far as the reveals, they are awesome but nothing for me.

I'm right there with you about having a mask molded to the head, but I'm willing to wait and see on this one. I think it could work.
