This has turned out worse than the brown Mankind debacle When I knew that it was available on the Canadian TRU site (toyrus.ca) I i tried to order them to have it shipped to the US. But TRU Canada will not ship outside of the country. So I called TRU and they said this set is not in their US systems at all and they can't order from Canada and have it shipped to me in the US. They can see it in Canadian warehouses, but not in the US so they told me to call Mattel. Two different people at Mattel said they have no info on this set, and both suggested that it may not even come out in the US, just Canada and the UK. Now, I think that was just their opinion, but it's crazy to me how long this set has been out and we have yet to see it here. |

I'm loving everything about Lucha Underground. The one-hour format is perfect give you just enough action, and keep the storylines clear. I love seeing gimmicks again and the lucha libre style is awesome! That triple threat match between Fenix, Pentagon Jr, and Drago was amazing. I'm hoping this promotion sticks around for a long time!

RVD is great. You have me thinking that Ryback and RVD would make for a great tag team. Ryback's muscle and strength with RVD's high flying moves. Their singlets would would be amazing.

I'm not huge a fan of basic figures but when I see one I like, I get it. And, I actually really like the Xavier Woods basic so I picked it up. I've also been waiting for a Big E attire that I like, and when I saw the E32 Big E, I knew I would get it and do a head swap to get rid of that gigantic melon of a head he comes with. I love how it looks with the head swap from his original figure. The IC belt went to Ziggler. Before I knew it, A New Day had come to my collection. Now all I need to do is pick up an updated Kofi with long trunks. Image posted by WWE on Instagram today:  A New Day!    |

Congrats! Thanks for posting the pics. The only one I'm interested in is DBry. Two VAC belts and his homage to Bruiser Brody is a win for me.

Rocky maivia with vaders mask and he's been wearing about a week    This makes me wish Sin Cara would start coming out with a hammer in real life. So much win. |

I have my delicates bag ready to go. Any tips on washing Elite clothing? Has anyone had any issues with staining after they've washed the clothes? Also, is there any clothing that shouldn't be washed? John Morrison's coat? Pillman's and Bulldog's vests? Kevin Von Erich's coat? Do NOT wash Kevin Von Erich's coat. It has a weird plastic like coating on it that will chip off. I washed it and ended up having to replace his coat. So I would suggest anything that feels like that coat do not wash. |

Only belt I think you missed was the shiny Divas titles.
I love collecting the belts. I was really happen when I finally reached a point where I had them all. I'm fine having one of each, any more of any title is a great bonus. Now, I know that if a figure is coming out with a belt, I'm getting it.

About $400 this year and about $600 total since I started collecting.
This question makes me wonder if RSC has any plans for a customer rewards program. Spend X amount of dollars per year and apply the reward toward a greater discount than 10% on one order. Or maybe even choosing free loose items or figures based on how much you've spent with them.

Wow, great pics of a great set up. I want to see close-ups of some of those customs. I spied the Headbangers in there!

Man, that sucks. I'm so sorry that happened. I know for many of us our collection represents great memories. To see one of your favorite figures snap like that is heartbreaking.

If you have to pick one, 30 for the vest (and the singlet's cool too). But honestly, if you've waited this long I'd say wait until the next one. All three so far have ridiculously small bodies for Ryback. Agreed. I haven't bought a Ryback yet because I'd prefer to see his body updated like they did with LOD Animal. |

Welcome to the boards! You're off to a great start! Based on your name, you may want to try and track down a King Booker figure.

I'd love a Boogeyman. Mattel would make him great, and the choices for accessories to include would be pretty good (worms, staff, clock, heart necklace). This figure would look great in any collection.

I feel bad for RSC on this one. It sounds like a handful of people have a tattoo issue with Edge (including me). The problem though, is that you can't tell which figures have messed up tattoos and which are okay because Edge comes packed with his coat on. You won't even know it's an issue until you open the package and remove his coat. Looks like Mattel may be getting some phone calls.
