I think it's worth getting. Looks great with an elite scale ring. And, it looks like it'll go great with the upcoming Kmart "Backstage Brawl" playset.

Just picked up the new WWE magazine, and on pg. 34 there's a short article called, "Go Figure!" where Cesaro, Tensai, Sandow, AJ, and Laurinaitis talk about their action figures. AJ is quoted as saying, "By October, I'll have my third this year!"
Now, I can't remember when her first B24 figure came out, but I believe it was end of 2012. if that's true, that only leaves her E21 and new B30 figures for 2013. Is it possible another AJ figure is in the works and will be revealed at SDCC?

Love this figure. Happy with it as is, as it perfectly captures that era of Kane.

Love the simple D-Bryan fix-up. Saw that basic at Target today and passed, but now I wish I would have picked it up. Guess it's time to go get it!

Are the regular display stands discontinued? I can't find them anywhere, and RSC only has the deluxe kind left.

It depends on the person. I'd rather have an expression that defines the character - screaming for Warrior, "woo" face for Flair, smiling Mick Foley, smirking Punk, etc. This guy nailed it.  I look at my Ryback and Cesaro figures and just sigh. The scans aren't BAD, but holy crap they are boring. The guys just look out of character or something. I really hope that new Cesaro scan is better. On the specific topic of the thread, though, I don't think screaming would work well for him-- I'd much prefer his wicked "I'm about to mess this guy up" grin. Exactly! This is why I haven't bought Ryback yet. His current scan looks like he's daydreaming. |

I'm a sucker for a screaming head sculpt. I think it adds so much drama to a figure. Being an out of the box, display only collector, I love the way these kinds of head sculpts look. A few examples are, The Ultimate Warrior, Justin Gabriel, HHH, and Daniel Bryan. Because of what a great job Mattel did with these sculpts, I'm holding out hope for a screaming Ryback! Which do you prefer?     |

I'm so sorry to hear that. All of us on here know that that for most, this is deeper than a casual hobby, it's a big part of our lives that brings us a lot of joy. I hope the cops are able to get who did it, and god willing your collection is able to be returned.

Thanks for all the feedback. After reading the replies and seeing the Mark Henry recap package on RAW tonight, I went ahead and pulled the trigger on an eBay bid. Happy to say I won an out of the package E15 Mark Henry w/ the belt for $24.99 and free shipping! It was only used for display.
I'm in the camp of thinking this may be his last elite. I'd be shocked if they do a flashback marketed as "Sexual Chocolate" to kids.
Can't wait to add this to my collection.

You guys think this is Mark Henry's last run before a real retirement?
I'm thinking of grabbing an E15 Mark Henry which runs between $30 - $40 on eBay. Being on a figure budget, I have to choose my purchases carefully and there's some great elite figures coming out this year that I want. The Mark Henry figure looks great though and I doubt we'll see any real change to his attire in the future.
It might be smart to grab it now in case it's the last elite we get of him. Thoughts?

If its still in the rubbery like state or hot, you can just pop it right on the other body, but if it cooled down then it might take a little force. Do jakks heads work on mattel body? Yes. But some are scaled too big (like Demolition Crush) but some are scaled great (like Flair). Either way you can put a Jakks head on a Mattel body and it'll fit nice and snug. |

Nice! Is Kane's chest a painted skin tone? In all the pics I've seen of him, it looks like the chest is painted making the top of his singlet black plastic.

Any sightings of the Ryback, Ultimate Warrior and SCSA Rumblers sets? Can't find em anywhere.... Not yet, but I'll keep my eyes open. BTW, you still looking for the armored Zod? I found a movie masters Zod unchained, but not in armor at Target. |
