If the Punk designs were from different stages of his career, I'd be all over it.
Long haired Punk, SES Punk, Pipe Bomb Punk, Shaved head Punk.

Wondering if a Mattel belt pack would ever be a possibility? Even as a RSC exclusive? There's so many great belts and getting a shiny belt pack would be awesome!
Imagine being able to buy a pack with:
- The smoking skull belt
- Attitude era title
- Winged title
- WWE title (new)
- WWE spinning logo title
- Hardcore title
- WWE tag team titles
- World tag team titles
- Classic tag titles
- White or black IC belt
- U.S. title
- Diva title
- Women's title
Titles are such a must have for figures, it would be great to have a way to get them without buying doubles or triples of a figure you already have.

Kmart in Joliet has one Big Show and one Kane left as of 3:00pm today. Someone swiped the Rock and Sandow they were holding for me. I can imagine when they did it they said, "You're welcome!"

I'd say buy what you want when you see it. Prices do go up as time passes. So if you know who you want, get them when you find them.

Yeah I got the whole set minus Giant, and mine was a fresh case...so Giant must not be shipping yet.  Which Kmart did you find them at? |

Man, that was a treat to look at! Thanks so much for posting it.
I have to say, after seeing that beautiful history of figures you have, and thinking back all the way to the LJN and Remco lines, it really shows how great we have it with Mattel. Something as simple as NOT having the Undertaker be the same height as the Hitman or HBK is a big deal, and Mattel was able to give us the best scaled figures to date.
I think sometimes we forget that Mattel has done an amazing job so far. They may not be able to give us all the characters we want, but what they have given us has been great.

Last year I posted how the E18 Brodus had his chest tats messed up (although they're correct on his basic figures). Here's the reference shot:  Here was the E18 error (you can see the tats overlapping) next to his basic which is correct (not overlapping):  Here's the upcoming elite Brodus proto shown at SDCC:  You can see the error is still there. Hoping Mattel notices and corrects it before release. Might not be a big deal to some, but it's always nice to have the tats in the correct spots. |

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but for those who haven't seen it, WrestlingFigs.com has posted some new close-up pics of the backstage play set. The set looks awesome! They also have some great shots of an 80's ring (TTTT ring?) set up with Superstars from that era: www.wrestlingfigs.com/inner2.php?id=23693&page_id=1 |

That Rey figure is one worth getting. Can't find if anyone said what series he'll be coming out in. Anyone know?
*EDIT* Sorry, just saw it on the list for E24.

I'm guessing that superglue would work right? It wouldn't do anything to the plastic? Be careful using too much, it turns plastic white if overused. |

You think E22 will surface before the end of the month?
