I love it. Sting is also my 2nd favorite wrestler of all time so I will like anything made of him basically. I say get him for sure.

Honestly all I'm looking for to be completely caught up is King Kong Bundy, the Jake Roberts in yellow from the BP with Ambrose, Legends George Steele, and WM3 Basic Ricky Steamboat

I'll probably get this since its within my targeted years I collect but I'm not crazy for it. I'm more excited how secretive it was haha.
Also, for this who play with their figs... Shockmaster/Ringmaster tag team anyone? "Masters of the World"?
Eh? Eh?

That custom DX HBK is sweet. That is the HBK attire I want the most. Yep me too. You would think Mattel knows how badly this attire is wanted by many and that we'll get it sometime soon, yeah? |

sometimes all of them. as i have no place to display them, i wonder y i buy them to throw in a box. Dude this is how i was for the longest time. I finally just went to Ikea and bought a $20 bookshelf and said screw it and set it up in the basement. Honestly I find myself looking for reasons to go into the basement just to take a 5 second look at them every day haha. Honestly though, just get a cheap shelf to start with and you'll feel way different about collecting. Although I will say the one thing I don't like about having them on display is I now never play with them. I would occasionally play with mine when my daughter would play with her collection of divas and random guys but now I just get overwhelmed with the thought of taking them down and having to reset everything up haha. |

Ever since the relaunch this may be the case. But initially it was figures in attires which were defining moments. I would absolutely say the fire breathing Ricky the Dragon is iconic. If it ain't a defining moment keep it in the elite line, the DM line should be used solely for iconic, defining moments Warrior's biggest moment was WM6 (Legends) Taker's most famous attire was purple gloves mortician (Elite) His first DM was a very unmemorable Bat-Taker look & his second was a rerelease of his second most iconic look, Ministry Steamboat's biggest moments were WM3 and Chi-Town Rumble, not a midcard dragon Savage's biggest moments were WM3 (unreleased DM) & WM4 (Legends/Battle Pack w/ Punk) Flair's biggest moment is probably Royal Rumble '92 and we get the robe in the DM & the figure in the Horsemen set Razor's biggest moment was WM10 in black (basic) Austin always wore black and the vest wasn't WM14, which was his biggest title win Ultimate Maniacs had awesome gear but no matches of importance As you can see, the Defining Moments line has never truly followed its name completely. Only Cena, Rock, Hogan, Crow Sting, & Surfer Sting have truly followed the guidelines. HBK, Savage, Warrior, Triple H, Austin #1 & #2, Bret, & Taker #2 are all debatable. It's just a tag line. It's never been about making figures of big moments, it's been about making elaborate and fancy attires, regardless if they were worn at Wrestlemania or a house show, or never at all like Flair I know I've seen the proto before but I can't seem to find it anywhere... Do you have any pics of the unreleased Macho? Also, it was for sure supposed to be a DM? |

I saw someone above me post the same thing but I only buy figures I like so none except for a few Battle Packs that I bought strictly for one guy. And in that case I could do without Big Show from the Andre battle pack and Cena from the Warrior battle pack.

I'm a little surprised no one said the solo white knee pad.
I want knee pad, painted shirt, glasses, hat, and will prayyyyy for a plastic coat.

We should have them at Ringside by the end of this week or early next week. Just so you know this post made me pre-order with you vs try to find it at retail. Thank you! |

Yeah man they're very similar so I see why you say that, but they're different. Do you have any Savage figures? |

I pre-ordered Bulldog, Taker, and Duggan. I want that Warrior so badly that I'm going to wait on ordering it and bank on the trend of retail getting the DM first. If it's in stock and I still haven't found it then I'll just order it

If this continues and isn't in poor taste, I'd totally buy a Warrior one of these. Sting would look badass as well.

Powers of Pain - HELL YES Steiner Brothers - HELL YES British Bulldogs - HELL YES Doom - Ehhhh, I'd probably buy it as a basic but it's a longshot Power & Glory - HELL YES Headshrinkers - Yes Orient Express - Yes Dream Team - Yes Natural Disasters - HELL YES KroniK - Yes Men on a Mission - Yes Wild Samoans - ehhh, maybe, maybe not Qubecers - Yes Killer Bee's - Probably Islanders - yes Harlem Heat - HELL YES Dudley Boyz - No Acolytes - No Too Cool - No Beverly Brothers - Yes Hardy Boyz - No Godwinns - Yes Smoking Guns - yes Midnight Express - No World's Greatest Tag Team - No Strike Force - Yes I'd like to add: MORE ROCKERS! MORE DEMOLITION! MORE LOD! MORE HART FOUNDATION! Sting and Luger Blade Runners Colossal Connection Allied Powers Bodydonnas Rhythm and Blues Lastly, I know we'll never get them, but I need High Energy, New Foundation, and Owen & Bulldog. Not necessarily Owen and Yoko unless Yoko had the white with red sash or black with white sash. |
