Wish Mattel would give us another Martel...maybe in pink or strike force to match Tito Don't forget pale blue with the sweater and puffy hair: Wish Mattel would give us another Martel...maybe in pink or strike force to match Tito I’d like a Strike Force version. Yep, definitely need a Strike Force Martel. Even though Tito could be used for Strike Force, I still see that more as singles run Tito from 1989 - 1991. It would be nice if they could release that Tito again, and a Rick Martel in their strike force gear: The t-shirts would be cool too:

PJ , that is still my favorite Sting that Mattel released. I wish it were an elite. Also, that Beefcake is another one of their absolute best figures. Hammer is great as well, though he needs thicker legs. And that Slaughter is fantastic, I like that you added the red elbow pads, makes the figure even better. Great Model figure, like my posts above, we need more from him. And that Tito gets a bad rap because of how long it sat on shelves, but it's a great figure. Is that the All-stars 2-pack Jake?

Yes, that’s the All-Stars Jake. Yeah the elbow pads were needed for Sarge. Yes the hammer can definitely use thick thighs. So should Sting, Austin and Orton to name a few.

I think that's my biggest issue with the GAB Sting, the legs were too skinny.

What did you do to get GAB Sting's jacket arms to bend? First time I did it I used a clear rubber band that the use to pack the figures with. Wrapped it around both coat wrists. But the one pictured I decide to superglue the tassels from the left sleeve to the back of the jacket. Then I superglued the tassels on the right sleeve to the left sleeves tassels. And even with the sleeves superglued to the jacket the jacket still slips on and off the figure without any hassle.

Love that Macho, Warrior and Stinger too. Though I think they could have selected a better head for Warrior. His '92 style mushroom haircut doesn't really fit that event.

Is that a colorful cowboy era Macho Man on one of your lists??? I think you're becoming a fan of these looks... I was going to go with the WMIII DM figure first even though the trunks aren’t WMIII. But the figure is in the trunks color I think of when I think of Macho Man. But because the trunks were a fail for WMIII I decided to give you the treat of me picking one of his clown…oh I mean his long tights & neon cowboy hat looks. And an FYI the DM WM VII figure will be featured soon.

Another cowboy-hatted Macho Man... I think you're becoming a fan...
All these figures are favorites of mine as well, though, I do like the Legends Brain Busters in their black trunks more, but the HOF figures are great too. The Macho King and Ultimate Warrior DM figures are still my favorites from that line, just ahead of Bret Hart and Ricky Steamboat, hopefully we get an Ultimate Edition of the figure soon.
