I've never done a preorder before. I finally had to put one in for that Savage, Lex and Wolfpack Sting.

I certainly hope he doesn't have a goatee. That just didn't look right.

What's with KMart having a bunch of Elite 26 Ultimate Warriors? I just looked at the one in Bridgeview and they're warming the shelf. Gosh I hope I have the same luck finding the re-release of Warrior coming up. They had two packs of Farooq and the Rock. Now as much as I love the Rock, I really wanted that Farooq figure so I put it back. Why couldn't they have released Nation Farooq all by himself? Now that I would've bought. They also had a DM Razor if anybody still is looking for it. The Kmart off of 95th and Pulaski was the same way last time I checked ( 4 months ago maybe ). They had at least 30 Warriors it seemed for years.

Finally received my green Sting and despite it looking great I just can't display it. Just way too short. Now that I have it in hand it looks so odd with such short legs. I can't believe I didn't notice it in other pics. I wouldn't of even bought it if I had. No more basics for me.

I agree it probably doesn't need to be a DM figure. For me this was my biggest want Warrior when Mattel started the line, so I'm just happy we got it. I just love the look.

Disappointing to hear the the green surfer Sting is so short. I have it on the way and now I'm not sure if I will even remove it from the package. I'm not a MOC collector, but in this case I might to make an exception. They will really annoy me to have him so short while displayed.
This is one of the reason I do shy away from buying Basics. The green Basic Warrior is too tall and I won't display him either.

Awesome pics. I love all those tag teams. I'm usually not a fan of customs, but the Steiners look good.

British Bulldogs are the biggest names from the WWF 80's tag scene that haven't been made hands down.
From WCW I would say the Steiner Brothers.
The old NWA/JCP era it would have to be the Rock n Roll Express with the Midnight Express being a close second.
Throw in the Freebirds from World Class as well.
I hope to see all these eventually.

Cool looking set. I would rather see a Taker fig in there instead of Vince though. That's not fig I would ever want personally. Definitely would be a cool piece to leave MOC.

One of my kids got this for his birthday a few years ago from a friend when it first came out and it's pretty awesome. I saved the box for him in case he wants it down the line. Pretty fun to play with.

Blade Runners at this point woulld be my most wanted. Steiners and Bulldogs would also be great.

I already have the Warrior , so I won't get that one. The Taker I have as well, but if the purple has been approved I will grab it ( hard to tell on the pic of it has or not). Magnum will be a pick up as well at some point.

How about the Blade Runners in the future? Blade Runners are in my top 5 remaining wanted Warriors/Stings I totally agree. I hope they make them. Even a basic battle pack would be fine by me.

Elite would be Road Warrior Animal red pads version. The size of that fig is perfect especially compared to the black pads version.
Basic for now would be the green trunks Warrior that has already been mentioned. That might change once I get the Starrcade 90 surfer Sting though.

Good question. I'd like to know the answer as well. Not sure if anybody here will know though. I was going to switch the boots and hands then I noticed the Elite hands were way bigger, so I didn't even bother.

I prefer elites, but certain attires that I like are in basic only. If it's a wrestler I collect it kind of leaves me with no choice to buy the basic.

Fine for kids. I can't see too many collectors wanting those though.

Wow that Sasha looks bad. I feel bad for the collectors waiting on that one. Mattel really struggles with the women for somereason. You would think with all the Barbie experience they would be pros by now.
That Savage looks pretty amazing. Really dig the knee pad. Didn't think they would be that detailed on that.
