That Rollins is great. Especially with the chase belt. I also had planned to buy that Rollins to do the head swap with the TRU Rollins, but now I'll be looking for the belt with him. Finally did mine today I NEED I NEED I NEEEEEEEEED.

I'm not usually one to complain but this is ridiculous. Sting was known to have thicker legs and a bunch of junk in the trunk. He also wasn't absolutely shredded like Batista. Why give him little sticks? Fail Mattel Fail.

Uhh my mistake. Was just asking about the Head on that Hogan. Get the pitchforks? Will this be a chase me out of town scenario or a stoning? Or is this such a BIG crime that it warrants the guillotine? To answer your question, the glasses are molded onto his face. And his head sets on a completely different peg that Mattel or Jakks figures. You could modify it to fit on a Mattel, but it would take a lotta work. It does work, though. I have ToyBiz head on Mattel figures. There's one loose on eBay now I think. Well I appreciate it man. I wasn't thinking when I bumped the thread. I feel pretty stupid now. Won't happen again.

You said the Smash N Slam legs (knee down) work with Mattel figures right? I'm going to make this. I have the R3 head already. Going to grab an extra HOF Hogan for the torso. I think I have an extra Elite Taker someplace too. used the legs from the knees down, shirt, and weightlifter belt from this one: you have to work on it, but you can fit the knee peg from the mattel through both the mattel outer knee and the Toy Biz inner joint. only downsides are you're giving up a double-jointed knee articualtion, and the TB one is solid plastic from the knee down, no rotation for the top of the boots or elite articulation in the ankles. I actually just replaced the kneepads today with official Mattel ones. I just left the Toy bizones on, but tried the mattels and they will fit over the boots and up the legs with a little effort. Hey very old thread but what sunglasses are those on that hollywood custom?

I think I prefer plastic/rubber coats or jackets but If its a shirt I'd rather it be cloth because it doesn't need as much detail. A cloth jacket or robe can look amazing if made right though. See DM flairs Robe.

What kind of magical coupon saved $16 on an elite? It is indeed a Mattel voucher. I've been waiting for months for the perfect opportunity to use it.

First of all, I know there is a million Surfer sting threads but this is really just about my gets and my rant. Yesterday I was dead set on trying to find the new Shawn Michaels figure and decided to call all the TRU's in the area. 5 Toys R Us's later and every word to the TRU kid song memorized from being on hold so much, I finally found something. No not HBK. Why would I find him so easily? I see these guys on here buying like 5 or more instead of getting one or two at the very most like a sane human being. Thanks for saving NONE for the rest of us. I was also looking for DM Sting and sure enough they had one left so naturally I told them to hold it for me. As I anxiously drove a half hour out of my way I began to worry that there was a reason it was the last one. Laced boots or bad paint deco or maybe BOTH I thought. When I finally got there I decided to look around before finding out. Finally found the Adam West Batman and picked him up. I looked through the star wars and marvel legends just in case even though I'm caught up on all of them. Then I walked by the WWE and they had A couple basic Cenas, a couple of those new battlepacks, A Naomi that I was very close to picking up, 2 Rybacks and 1 other figure I cant seem to remember, A ton of those Taker/ lesnars and Hidden 123 kid that I put back on the shelf. After finding nothing too exciting and running out of time I decided to head up to the Customer Service, get my figure and check out. I guess they had the customer service open as a regular register so there was a pretty huge line. I waited and waited, squinting at my Surfer Sting at the back of their service desk seeing if I could spot some problems. Finally it got down to me and a lets just say, a very Jolly man and his English GF. With only 7 minutes left until I absolutely had to leave or I would be late for work, I thought to myself there is no way this guy will waste all 7 of those minutes. The man presented the lady with about 7-8 deluxe sets of Legos to the women and she started ringing them up and I thought okay cool, quick and easy until... The women spotted the new set of Lego Minifigures in the display box on the counter and her and the man excitedly wobbled over to them going on and on about them. The man counted his self out about 10-12 of them being ever so careful which ones he picked. Taking his sweet A** time before finally rolling back over to the register. I thought to myself okay we still have 3-4 minutes, Its okay. Until the women said, But what about me? So he very kindly allowed her to get herself 2 of them so she very VERY carefully picked two of the blind bags for her self. I glanced over at the Sting to see if there were any of those defecs but my view was too obstructed from the Jolly man. The cashier took her time to chat with them about her knowledge of the lego blind bag figures giving them advice on which ones to pick and how many rares come in each display box. After they heard her profound wisdom they shuffled back over to the box and started feeling on every single blind bag. I could feel my rage growing and I found it very hard to stand still I had about a minute left until I absolutely had to leave. They finally oozed back over to the register with their golden blindbags and she rang them up and gave them their total. 535 she said, as I rolled my eyes and shook my head. She then put the final nail in the coffin by asking if they had a reward card. Saint Nick looked befuddled as he wondered to his self if he even had one. With a cocky attitude he said, "I don't know, Probably. I don't have the card with me if I even have one." She asked his number and he started giving numbers for her to type in. He literally gave her about 8 numbers with no luck until finally giving her the right one. He laughed as if him holding everyone else up for over 10 minutes was funny. Yes, so very entertaining you portly comedian. I sarcastically laughed out loud realizing I was going to be over 5 minutes late for work now and to show him that its time for him to bounce his a** out of the store. So the man, collected his 20 blind bags and 500 dollars worth of Big Bang Theory legos and drove away in his lop-sided sports car. After that mess it was finally my turn to check out. I told the women my name and she handed the figure over. I quickly looked it up and down and it was nearly perfect. Deco was good and it had the right boots. It immediately put me in a good mood and I walked out the door dialing the number to work telling them i'd be late. Anyway, sorry for the long winded story. It was THAT big of a deal just kindve annoying. Its just a lot of people nowadays have their head shoved so far up their a** that they don't stop to think about others. So yeah, I got the Sting and i'm pretty impressed with it. It has its flaws but its definitely better looking in person. The Neca Adam West Batman is a pretty cool figure too. Wait is that my custom Hollywood Hogan I'm working on peeking behind that box? Went to my local Walgreens last night after work and checked the toy aisle. Sure enough they had just put out Elite 41 and Funk was first in line. The toy gods were smiling down on me finally, just for a moment. Check out that total, Fellas! Update- So whilst going grocery shopping with the GF at Meijer I made a detour to the toy section and to my suprise, the Toy gods hath thou shined down upon a mere mortal again with this Chase Rollins. I am so happy right now. Now if I can just get the TRU Rollins I can do the Ultimate Head swappage!

Elite 36. Like others have said, a couple jyd's and Cody's. Same old same old. I guess having their own exclusive line kinda makes up for it a teeny weeny itty bitty, bitty bit.

Wow, that Edge looks so cool I may have to get him. But do I really need a 3rd Rated R Edge? Can't decide... Question, are those the Shango legs on Steele?
