OK today around 3PM I hit the RT17 Paramus NJ TRU & the Paramus Park mall KB. Anyway the TRU had a few CS15 figures along with most of CS14 including Sherri, Demolition, Warrior & LJN Austin (black box). I didn't see Rick Martel or Bob Backlund. They also had at least one case of all of CSTT6. (2 of each) They also had a bunch of the ECW series 2, DA9 and the newest TT sets. Anyway seeing I didn't need any of the CS nor did I want any of the modern era figures I finally broke down and bought the AD25 WGTT set...which was a set I did want but kept passing on. So after TRU I hit KB hoping to find a Rocky figure to do a lower leg switch on Haas with, because all the lower leg laced boots molds that Jakks has uses for their RA/CS/AD lines look like my Grandma's bloated ankles. Shelton -(mine has some white paint behind his right ear) Haas - KB had both of the last DA 3-Packs and all of DA9. As for CS I saw CS15 Lex, CS11 Windham, Shamrock & Moolah. They also had the Rocky figures with Tyson, Brigitte & Mason. So I bought a "Rocky Balboa" Rocky figure for the leg switch. After the leg swap - Anyway here's my question... Shelton's Kraken tattoo is the same as the design on his tights. But I noticed on mine that the tattoo is upside-down on his arm...So seeing I've never really noticed/looked at his tattoo on TV I was just wondering if his tattoo is upside-down in real life or did I screw up and pick up a factory error?

Well after seeing the real life pic of his tattoo it makes sense...As it looks like it's crawling on his arm. Too bad the figure's doen't look like it's crawling.

I like the Hass fix-up. Might I ask what is that Hass and Benjamin are on? Is it an UF ground?

Nice Haas fix up.. what did u use to pop the legs off? I wanna do that with a few of my figs, but dont wanna break them you know?
I wondered the same hing about the tat, but then I realized it was supposed to be like that. Most people I dont htink would have noticed that.

I wondered the same hing about the tat, but then I realized it was supposed to be like that. Most people I dont htink would have noticed that. I just heat the knees with a hair dryer for about 1-2 minutes...then once they are soft I just pop it off the pin with my hands. Then I swap the lower leg and pop the pin back through the holes. Would you be able to show me show pictures, I need to see the length. They would be good for a ramp. It's pretty much just a 6" X 6" square.

lol, Shelton was probably wasted when he got the tattoo, and from his point of view, it looked right

Just a little FYI...it's not a kraken, it's a griffin (or "gryphon," if you prefer).
Kraken's a sea monster...griffin is a lion with the head and wings of an eagle.
