It's so funny how mach looked SO different when he came back like this lol
Awesome figure - I want these TNF figs! Man I have yet to find an affordable Bam Bam on ebay and series 2 is already out...ugh.
That stand is awesome where'd you get it? Nice pics too btw
would trimming the shirt a bit fix anything? I hate that there's no small shirt mold. Eddie looks ridiculous in his latino heat shirt (but his too jacked physique is worse).

From the start everyone was psyched about these (mostly) worthwhile re-releases. But now they're all bruce willis'd up. This is a shame and this sloppy series is kind of a slap in the face. A little one but still... I mean should we all say thanks for loose, poorly painted, half-assed corrected, little things forgotten about figures? Another question to ask is - how many of you are happy with your re-release purchases? Other than just finally having these figs that is. Look at speaktomewarriors' sig. THAT'S how the re-released warrior should have looked like moc. Screw the repainting (cuz he still wobbles all over the place so screw literally fixing the figure), what the fig really lacked was both belts or at least the correct yellow strapped ic belt. That's it. THAT'S what everyone complained about most - the wrong f'n belt. That's all that had to be fixed if they weren't gonna bother making him not wobble (and like EVERY part of mine wobbles). "Hold me closer, Tiny Warrior... I've got a movie to make Knock me down on the canvas You're the champion today"

Nice! Loving those Hogan customs too... what head is that on the Hulk Still Rules one (last pic)? It's the CAS head. Best hogan head (with HOF 2 would be first but he looks old so it limits it's use), perfect for WM 5 and up hogans till hof 2 then it works again for hollywood hogan (I used the dm head for Mr. America). IT's CAWS Hogan with Elite Current Era crap & boa, HOF 2 Bandanna, austin kneebrace (I'm sure the actual red one would look better), ryback kneepads and lesnar belt. Gonna put a weight belt on him if i can get an extra one. Just added a decal for the bandanna (if anyone wants the jpg let me know). I've stated this before if you see a clearanced CAS Hogan - snatch that bad boy up! The only thing off with the CAs figs is (beside elite movement) is the shoulders aren't big enough and the boots are too short (for some guys like Hogan). I'm an idiot, I should have bought that crow sting one when I saw it and made myself a superstar billy graham with it lol

the only issue with the cabinets are the use of space imo lol yeah you can fill em fast. I'd need 4 to fit all my guys but then tech you need another one for the eventual new overflow lol I was looking at yours & others pics and it looks like you have 15-18 per shelf. If I did 15 per shelf with 212 figures that I have, that would be 4 Detolf cases and Id have about 2 shelves to spare. I wouldnt be able to add 5th so as the 4th case gets full I would have to start putting 20 on a shelf and figuring out a way to make space. Yeah I get 18 per cube and I have a ring on top of each one for the leftover figs. I'll post some newer pics later today.

I would have had these already if it wasnt for the shipping. I havent had time to take the drive to Atlanta to get them. My worry is getting home and not having enough room to fit all my figures in them. Ill probably need 4 at least. the only issue with the cabinets are the use of space imo lol yeah you can fill em fast.

I love Detolfs for the most part. I have three. I wanna get one or two more. My only issues are 1) I get so nervous carrying them up the stairs to assemble them. They're kinda heavy and when carrying them they sag in the middle. I'm willing to bet this is normal for any long glass plating, but I just get so worried it's gonna break. 2) I don't really have an IKEA near me so it's hard for me to justify paying the $100+ shipping when the cabinet is like $65. Or on other sites the cabinet is over $100. Otherwise these are great. I like the height between shelves and the width is great too for just lining up a bunch against a wall. LOL I know. 100 f'n dollars for a 65$ cabinet!? Like wtf!? I got two for 80$ on kajiji. Had to bring em home from the west end of town in my buddys jeep but we made it lol (scariest ride ever. every little bump was bang bang...I'm was so paranoid haha)

I'm fine with the Bulldog and Steamboat figures I have, and I would only consider buying another Rude if the attire was amazing, so I voted for everyone else. I would buy multiple attires for Flair, Razor, Bret, and Sting. I REALLY would love the survivor series tights Rude, I'm surprised more people aren't mentioning it. Those are like the best tights ever. The Brood on the front (with halos and in heaven in the clouds) and the rowdies on the back (I believe they're in hell or something lol).

I love Bret hart, but feel all his looks were just so similar. Me too. It's all just more or less of pink and black variations. The only ones left are a wcw one (needed) and an old school blue n black (for something different but not needed).

I disagree. The contract is up in 2019 right? So let's say that was it. Looking at the time left I don't think another one is needed. Classic elite, dragon dm, basic wm iii & basic return run...that's about enough. Maybe a wcw one.

I'm sure beefcake will get a dream team one or a mega maniacs...i'd love an nwo beefcake but for his wcw run(s) I think not. No bootyman unless he's next year's comic con exclusive lol For Crush we have Kona Crush, Evil Crush, DOA Crush, nwo Bryan Adams and Kronic Bryan Adams... Kona Crush will look just 2 sweet on a shelf so he's gotta be made...and if I had to pick one more...I'd pick nwo Bryan Adams. Kona Crush definitely seems likable due to Mattel lately filling in those early to mid 90s WWF gimmick gaps and it would be sweet... Well they got crush signed so why not? I've said before, my personal opinion is anyone from the ljn pr hasbro lines should get a figure. I never saw any of the later hasbro's so there's a bunch guys I really want figs of (Virgil, singlet hacksaw, gonzalez, steiners, headshrinkers, repo man, borga, mounite, etc..) and crush was one too... I'm sure Kona would sell, possibly even Evil Crush in his gear from the wm match with macho but the others are iffy.

hopin Beefcake gets the multi-fig treatment & Crush needs 2 more figs! Luger NWA US Champ w/Belt WM12 Warrior Rockers repaints I'm sure beefcake will get a dream team one or a mega maniacs...i'd love an nwo beefcake but for his wcw run(s) I think not. No bootyman unless he's next year's comic con exclusive lol For Crush we have Kona Crush, Evil Crush, DOA Crush, nwo Bryan Adams and Kronic Bryan Adams... Kona Crush will look just 2 sweet on a shelf so he's gotta be made...and if I had to pick one more...I'd pick nwo Bryan Adams.

Ok - Steamboat: a wcw COULD be done...I wouldn't mind an elite WM III one but if we get no more I wouldn't be upset Bret - bret's got a lot but they're all just pink and black variations. I'd like a wcw one with a hitmen jersey and an old school blue and black Rick Rude - I only need one more, Survivor Series tights. A wcw one with us title could be made too Sting - I'm good. One Surfer sting, crow sting and wolfpac sting - I'm good. I'd take a blade runners and I'm good with sting. Flair - he just changes color basically so I'm good after a short haired wcw one and maybe a flair for the gold flair...otherwise I'm good. Bulldog - I'm good. A wcw one maybe but aside from an early BB's davey boy I got all I need. Razor Ramon - Again just changing colors. I'd like a green one I think if I had to pick.

I want a three faces of Raven: - Johnny Polo - ECW era - WWF Hardcore Title era I wouldn't consider ECW and WWF Raven two different "faces". Still the same character and pretty much the same look. Scotty Flamingo, Johnny Polo, and Raven would be his three faces. It'd be Johnny Polo, ECW/WCW Raven and then WWF Raven (blonde dreads). Each figure would look totally different.

I'd definitely rather have these three. And that Tugboat looks SO much better with the Shockmaster head. It's such a simple change, swap the head and put his arm up and bend it and boom perfect tugboat lol... Now all you MOC collector's should be pissed. Tugboat should have come with this head and the arm up in the package. How amazing would that look?

I have the Tugboat and am looking forward to getting Typhoon. I just hope I can afford that Shockmaster before it gets any more expensive. I wish I'd waited till boxing week lol
