not a fan of Dynamite - don’t think the head looks like him To each their own but I thought they nailed his look: If anything, I think it is Davey who looks just a little bit off. This set is really growing on me but I’m not sure it is a must at this time. Very tempting though…

I'm not sure about the likeness of Dynamite, tbh, but the mold is great and Davey looks really good. I could have sworn Dynamite was in a clothesline pose originally, and I remember his likeness looking dead-on. Either way, still a big improvement on the Chella version.

I'll definitely be picking the Bulldogs up, though. I'm tempted by PoP as well.

The powers of pain look incredible. I want to pre-order but received my Haku and am sorta lukewarm on it. Hmmm… do we have reason to believe the game is upgraded with Epic from chella?

All 3 tag teams are heavy hitters and will be a good value if you want to part with them. I see what you mean with Dynamite. People remember his face thinner that it actually was. The likeness is not better or worse than some of Hasbro. In fact the catoonesque look blends in quite good and he is definitely recognizable. So I give it a very good pass.

It's a huge improvement on the Chella version, but I remember either a rendering or a prototype Epic showed a while back and Dynamite was spot-on. Tbh though I'm just really happy to be getting the Bulldogs, they do look promising. I've actually got the PoP in my cart at Epic Toys's site, along with a loose Adam Bomb.

http://instagram.com/p/Cw5snKdsno- In case anyone missed it, Epic is hyping a mystery person for series 3. Just to stir the pot a bit, I took a look at who they are following on Instagram. Based on those findings, I split it into the following lists of possible future Epic figures: CLASSIC ERAMike Tyson Jesse Ventura Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff Abdullah The Butcher Barry Windham Cyndi Lauper Lawrence Taylor Don Muraco Ozzy Osbourne Nikita Koloff Ricky Morton Magnum TA MNW ERA+Billy Kidman Eric Bischoff Gail Kim Lance Storm Jushin Liger Tazz Mark Henry Vince Russo New Jack MODERNDoc Gallows Vikingo Ian Riccaboni Joey Janela Kenny Omega Mercedes Mone/Sasha Banks Mickie James Minoru Suzuki Penta Sami Callihan Trevor Murdock Ivar Marufuji POSSIBLE REMAKESBig John Studd Hacksaw Jim Duggan Roddy Piper’s daughter Bret Hart JYD Jeff Jarrett Kevin Nash Kurt Angle Koko B Ware Lex Luger IRS Jimmy Hart Big Bossman Ric Flair Sid Jake Roberts Tito Santana

They look great, but again, I hate it when a tag set uses the same exact body for both guys. Hasbro always used 2 different actions for a tag set, at least all the double card sets when they were really in their prime. Disasters were the same mold, but that's just due to the last minute change to doing Typhoon instead of Tugboat. And Headshrinkers had the same move, but at least they used some different parts to make them not identical. BTW, anyone have an update on King Haku that ordered from Asylum?

Arm is different on Kid and paintwork on lower body, the same body sort of works for these two though imo. Asylum have Series 2 in hand now I believe after the customs issue

I think they are similar but not exact. The arms look different. Bulldog looks like he has a double bicep pose, while Dynamite's looks more like Mr. Perfect's hasbro, one arm to lock the opponents head into position to do the suplex, the other arm extended out more. I ordered Haku from Asylum; it says it was shipped last Friday. It should arrive sometime this week. Horrible timing on my part, I was about to cancel my order, then I got the shipping notification. I'm not liking the look of it based on the pictures I've seen on the internet. I might keep it if it looks better in hand, if not, I'll probably sell it if I can. I think the head sculpt is good, but the rest is lacking - IMO.

Was/is Mike Keota up for order someplace? Hope I didn't miss him, looks like he's pictured on the back of the Cheslea card I just got.

Pre-order has not gone up yet, only had the Chelsea Green (which is in hands) and The Headbangers up so far.
