WHAT IS THE LIBERTY BELLE MACEY NEVIN DOING IN THE IMPACT ZONE?! Has anyone done this since Mike Tenay retired? Like, lol, but it made me genuinely wonder how far removed we are from this being a thing that used to happen?

Seriously, the Ali set is objectively an amazing marvel for wrestling fans and just people who collect action figures in general. like, just a figure nerd, I find this set amazing. Even if I knew nothing about wrestling, I’d love this set cause it’s Muhammad Ali, one of the most famous people ever and it’s loaded with cool hands and heads.

Hey! I recently got back into collecting and im trying to put together a bullet club collection. Of course there can be a bit of a size difference between mattel and jazwares, but Aj seems just fine compared to the elite. Adam cole however, is considerably shorter. Can someone point me in the direction of an appropriate figures boots or possibly lower leg that would make him a bit taller? I like elite 82 cole better than the Aew one with the giraffe neck! Elite fin Balors are relatively cheap on Mercari, and the parts are great for building other people. Those legs would work well and must easier to find than most.

Pretty sure it should always have been "Hit Man" although its not cosmetically pleasing. I dont believe the term/word "Hitman" is even in the dictionary. People always put words together that dont belong....Im still trying to figure out how people think "alot" is a real word. Dictionaries are not rule books, they’re records of what is identified as functional language. At some point “alot” will be documented in dictionaries because of its prevalence and “hitman” makes more sense as the formal term since everyone says it as a singular phrase.

I can just hear someone in some BS corporate position who has to be overly conscious of public image for either Mattel or WWE saying “we can’t have toys depicting the name of an assassin” so they space so it sounds like “he’s the man that hits people” and it’s just pure cringe 🤣🤣🤣
I’m amazed Vince didn’t see them in 85 and go “he needs a flashier presentation.” And after pairing the hart foundation, I’m surprised he didn’t “Okay pal, you’re not longer the hitman, you’re the Hit Maker! And you’re gonna be a wrestling Bass Guitarist! And Jim, you’re be the record breaker! And you’re gonna have 45s printed on your ass, and you’re gonna be the drummer, and You’re gonna be the new Rock and Wrestling duo and then Vince just snorts even more soda snow and starts laughing maniacally

I’ve seen several mean mark callous figures on Mercari, and a boot swap would make it pretty good for Snitsky. I’m surprised they haven’t given names to the most common Torsos, but a lot of people use Brock Lesnar elites(the trunk wearing ones) or they use the Triple H/classic bodybuilder torso elites as a base for Steiner. A good way to save money is to find a figure that’s scuffed up and scrub it to death with a magic eraser to clean off the marker or paint what boots for Snitsky swap? Mean Mark is about $4 at Dirt Cheap Maybe the tall boot mold used on like 80s/early 90s Hulk Hogan elites since that’s still tall but not as tall. You might have to trouble shoot that one since you need the figure ti be slightly shorter than Kane to be in scale

I don't think that Triple H and Vince will retire the WWE Championship for a title that has been around since 2016. Why in the hell is their an Undisputed Champion while their is a World Heavyweight Championship on Raw. You say that, but they dropped the World Tag Team championship in favour of the WWE Tag Team championship back in 2010. A title with a lineage dating back to 1971, dropped in favour of a title established 31 years later in 2002. That being said, I doubt they'll drop the WWE championship in favour of the Universal championship. But there is definitely precedent. Let’s be real here, Vince has never respected tag teams. A tag team could become more over than The Rock and he wouldn’t be able to capitalize because he’s been crapting on tag teams his entire life

Lesnar had the title at Mania 38, they unified it when Roman won and now Roman continues the original lineage because only a goof would retire the most legitimate and long standing championship in wrestling. You can’t create 50 years of linage on the spur of the moment.

Do you wanna use Mattel or Jazwares? Mattel since they are easier to find on ebay but you could tell me about jazwares too I'm not picky I’ve seen several mean mark callous figures on Mercari, and a boot swap would make it pretty good for Snitsky.

I just finished cutting up a year’s worth of figure boxes/cardboard for making paper mache for building terrain/props for toy photography and tabletop gaming. I saved the plastic windows to be windows on spaceships made from other trash. Always recycle when you can. If you want a buried alive playset for basically free, you can make one with paper mache made from all your figure box cardboard.

I need a few pages to do it, but I could wax poetic about how good Damian Priest was at being a smart worker tonight, knowing exactly what to do and making the most out of the smallest details. Literally the only thing I hated was the crash pad driver spot, because the match literally could have continued, and been better off, without it happening. Damien Priest is capable of brilliance, and the sheer meticulousness of his timing, mannerisms, sensibility of chaining moves and moments together, made this the best match of his life. He’s never shown that level of old school working before.

Stares in not sure if serious because hogan didn’t start the business and that kind of revisionist history is why I am such an old man who yells at the sky according to the halfwit modern fans

I wish I loved anything as much as I hated Balor’s god forsaken(pun?) spirit Halloween demon outfit. Bianca’s entrance made me really happy as a person and I hope the WWE donated to help that little girl who lost her mother. Rollins’ was amazing and felt like watching Gorgeous George and the conductor was a fun element. Roman’s was so tasteful and subtle.

I’m ranking it low in hopes of making Rhea mad so we can have witty banter and our chances of making out go up, or I can at least surprise her with flowers and end up winning her over as a nice friend.

Even through all the turmoil of the last three years, we can always rely on a laugh from the jobbers spam posting to get access to the classifieds.

I know it hasn’t been exact for a long time, but the figures should be consistent in terms of size. Like, there shouldn’t be such glaring issues in the scale differences.
