He has a gut, so he's out of shape? How many times is he blown up during a match? For a guy of his size and look, he's in great shape. I hate how people think if you don't have six pack abs or bulging muscles, you're out of shape. In a job when damn near everyone is in awesome shape and he has a gut like that it stands out in a negative way. Even if its not true makes him just look lazy like zz from tough enough. I put him kind of in the same line as a lot of the guys that do strongman. A lot of the best guys have a gut. They are just naturally big. While they may not look like they are in shape, they are. And with wrestling, having something that makes you different is good. He doesn't look like any other person in the wwe.

I think he boiled down to attitude. When HHH was on austins podcast, when he was talking about indy guys needing to come in and learn the wwe playbook, and he said some come in and kinda refuse to do it their way and think they know it all. I think hero was one of the main people behind that line. Dude is talented as all hell. Great in ring, talks well, gets it all..... so the few things they could pick at was willingness to work their style and seeing if he would start from scratch like many greats have. And his physique. He wasn't willing to tone it up some ( not wilLing to work with them). I think if he had cut some weight and toned just a bit. He'd be on the main roster killing it, but he wanted to do it his way and got his walking papers. Oh I know, it just baffles me sometimes when you look at other workers that they let slide. I mean hell they let Bull Dempsey walk around looking like a jackass for a year. I think it's because they do everything else that's asked of them. And it fit with bulls gimmick.

Seeing guys like Dawson and Corbin really makes me question what the hell this company did with Chris Hero and why...... He was no less in shape than Dawson is when he was with the company... Corbin only because he has that ridiculous looking torso lol I think he boiled down to attitude.

In the long run, customizers make them more cash. As we buy more figures making the stores want to order more. So I don't think they would want to stop us. That is a fair point... BUT...I will say this... someone takes your work and does a better job at making it than you with your own parts from other pieces of your work... I could see someone being salty about it honestly. Meh..... we are putting money in their pocket. I doubt they really care at all.

Call me crazy...but what if they want to stop people from part swapping? Well crazy... I was thinking THE EXACT same thing. I bet it gets explained that it looks more realistic or something..and I am fine with it... as long as it doesn't carry over to elites. I have my opinion why they would want to stop part swapping too. In the long run, customizers make them more cash. As we buy more figures making the stores want to order more. So I don't think they would want to stop us.

I want to say this was discovered right after this wave was first found. Same thing happened with JYD too... he had some sticker on his box fixing something. OH MY GOD, DUDE! I have that JYD! I kept it MOC because I thought the FTITL sticker was weird. Why did that happen, do you know? Easier and cheaper to put the sticker than print all new boxes?

So I found two Panthers in the wild yesterday...at WalMart. I didnt have much cash on me so I hid them. One on the top shelf with overstock, and the other behind some puzzles. Came back today and someone found both! I looked over the closest aisles and found one of them on top of some Nerf stuff. Wish he had closed fists too, but im sure some generic black hands would work too. Finished Team Stark, except Vis and Spidey arent MCU. Always take them to automotive. I have a friend that will hide stuff for me there. Never has anything been found.

He's crazy for it... it's still illegal in most places... so of course he's going to be pissy if they don't think like him. The guy sadly thinks so highly of himself it's scary. I'm pretty sure they aren't testing the legends for things ..... so maybe he should get over himself? I think his stance is that he isn't scared of being tested, he wants the wrestlers to be able to smoke Which they are ....... but have to deal with the consequences of partaking in illegal activity. Which is only a fine. I'm pretty sure if I tested positive for it at work, I'd be fired.....

It's a fine idea... why not display though? I've never understood collecting anything only to hide it away. I don't collect to "collect" as much as I collect to play with them ahah. This solution just acts as a functional hiding spot. Even then.... putting them on display makes them more readily available, and have to go through less hassle of putting them away, dragging them out ect.

Which I find weird as it's not on the banned list..... it's still just a fine Huh, that's weird. I know he said something about them not allowing it. Maybe it's not on the wellness policy but still not allowed or something like that. He's crazy for it... it's still illegal in most places... so of course he's going to be pissy if they don't think like him. The guy sadly thinks so highly of himself it's scary.

i really like the fact that MDT pretty much got WWE to sign him to a legends deal just to finally get this figure out to us. Because i believe he was originally under a Mattel deal during the Legends series days. Then the series he was in (7) got cancelled. And eventually his contract expired. MDT said he submitted some kinda list to WWE with ppl they should sign, w/ i think he said Magnum, Raven & Lita were on that list?? And now we got 2 of those [val venis and shamrock need to be on the next list] Venis recently said he will not do any deal with the company until they take weed off the list of banned substances It's an easy custom anyway. Austin with Christian lower legs and boots Which I find weird as it's not on the banned list..... it's still just a fine

He did that right in front of me and my wife.. I died a bit from that. that's you and your wife right there? I'm the tall guy with the huge beard leaning over onto the railing. She's short with redish orange hair. You see me laugh in the last few frames.
