Good grief this just delays Dr.Death and who knows who else is in that glorious wave!! The suspense is killing me Luckily the Dr Death won’t face any delays because of the show, it really is a delicious line up for series 4 though |

Usually I’m not either…Vader would be the exception and I would buy multiples. The only other thing that would make that better would be if Epic were to make more than one Vader in the WM line. I’m probably equally as excited for a Loob Vader as I am a Megastar. Part of that is due to the PTSD of the Mattel. Getting my hopes up too much that it’ll be as good as I imagined just isn’t healthy lol. I like a lot about the their version (it was my favorite Mattel Retro of 2023) but it was a big letdown in terms of size and pose. Epic has been on fire as of late but I don’t want to be disappointed again like I was with Mattel. As a result, expectations are limited. So the Loob feels like it is a guaranteed home run and can do no wrong. For years I’ve had this loose NOAH Vader in my collection (giving him the WCW title of course):  Scale and look-wise it blends in fairly well. |

However isn’t it a little tall? |

For years I’ve had this loose NOAH Vader in my collection (giving him the WCW title of course): Scale and look-wise it blends in fairly well. I love that Vader, although I don't own it. His Charapro figures are generally all exceptional. One of my favourite Vaders is his OSFTM, which when I first saw a grainy picture of in the early 00's online had me thinking it was a long lost Galoob figure, which sparked my imagination. I'll definitely be buying multiple versions of him, too. He's up there with the Bulldog in terms of being a figure I'll happily buy way too many of! |

However isn’t it a little tall? Not by much. It is close to Sid but far enough away from El Gigante. I believe Gigante was billed as 7’7, Vader at 6’5, Sid at 6’9, and Sting at 6’2.  |

Damn. I’m realizing I typed the wrong address. Someone else has my ddp and I’m just out of luck. Did you guys get a shipping confirmation or did it just show up out of the blue. I haven’t gotten a confirmation so I’m hoping it hasn’t been shipped yet and the address can be corrected.

I haven’t gotten a confirmation so I’m hoping it hasn’t been shipped yet and the address can be corrected. I had tracking info in my email. Maybe double check your spam folder or try reaching out directly to FC in case they have any additional information. |
