Who would Warlord pair well with? Demolition Ax. Or Mr. Fuji. Slick would be another good Warlord pairing.

Also just got my shipping notification email! I live in Washington state and placed my order about 45 minutes after they first went up, if that means anything to anyone.

Current pets: Shiba Inu/Chihuahua mix: Roxy Orange Tabby #1: Duke Orange Tabby #2: Piper
Before them, we owned one black & white piebald pattern cat, who had passed away in 2018. His name was Owen.

Hi folks; could I be assigned a badge, please? My registration date is showing as Dec 18, 2001 (although I'm not sure that's entirely accurate; I think that I may have first joined in 2002, but I could be wrong). My member # is EIGHTY, if that tells you anything. Thanks in advance!

My local Walmart had Buzz Off, Jitsu, Sorceress, and Stratos on clearance for $3 each. It's about time. Hopefully they're making room for some new waves and the exclusive Moss Man. My local WM also put this wave on clearance... from $17.97 to $17.95. My local Target still has them all for full price.

My local Walmart stopped carrying AEW after Unrivaled 2, years ago. But this weekend they had both Unrivaled 9 and Unmatched 4 on the pegs!

GUNTHER

Gunther has made that title important again. Roman made the mid card titles important again Pffft. Reigns held the IC title for 2 months before losing it to THE MIZ.

Hoo boy. I've been going to shows since 1988, and I've seen (off the top of my head): Hogan Savage Andre Warrior Flair B.Hart O.Hart HBK Taker Rock Austin Sid Shamrock Nash Hall Luger Giant/Big Show DDP Goldberg (was at his debut televised match in SLC) Booker T Kane Mysterio Triple H Mankind/Dude/Cactus Vader Eddie He Who Shall Not Be Named Sting Angle Jericho Cena Batista Orton Rollins Reigns Ambrose/Mox Bryan/Danielson and of course, the biggest of all, Orange Cassidy w/Danhausen
I'm sure that I'm missing a bunch

Patiently waiting for a classic Flash, red/orange pads and all. Hear, hear. Flash has always been my favorite Joe, so I would be 100% stoked for that announcement (also a Grand Slam using the same body mold, maybe the silver pad version). On the OTHER side of the battle, Scrap Iron is my #1 Cobra agent, so I was VERY excited for yesterday's official reveal!

Some food for thought: Nikolai Volkoff is a no-brainer for this line, in my opinion. He was a big name during the mid-80s, and his figure was one of the more heavily-produced in the beginnings of the LJN line. In the Retro discussion thread, it was suggested that his Retro fig didn't have his famous "USSR" t-shirt due to recent events, which is understandable. My question is IF he gets put into the CC line, what's the best way that they could match his LJN figure's look? Maybe a plain red t-shirt with yellow trim? Any line referencing LJN should have Nikolai Volkoff in it. I'm hoping we don't get just a generic red shirt. Obviously I get why they would do it if they do but this isn't for Target or Walmart, it's a niche collector product sold on their website. Not a deal breaker but I hope they can slip it in there somewhere. Buying a Volkoff figure with a USSR shirt doesn't condone anything that's going on right now. Fair enough. Like I said, it was a just a theory that someone had brought up as to why it was missing from his Retro fig (which is also a niche collector product not sold in retail stores).

I'm gonna buy one of each, so it doesn't matter to me if they put out Andre with Hot Rod, all the way down to Corporal Kirchner and a generic referee.

Martel/Chico Majority of the times they fought, Martel always got the W.He no doubt wouldve beat em at SSlam 90 if the match took place as well Along those same lines, another one would be Martel VS. Tatanka, with Tatanka always coming up in the win column. I SAY that, but I've seen those two wrestle live twice (once in Boise, once in SLC), and at the Boise show, MARTEL ACTUALLY BEAT TATANKA (by countout)!! That's why whenever they called him "The Undefeated Native American" on TV, I'd always scoff. But then there's the ol' pre-internet wrestling credo: "If it didn't happen on TV, then it didn't happen."

I also got my shipping notification (I ordered the new set plus the one with the Harts/Volkoff). MC gave me a shipping estimate of some time in March originally, so I was pleasantly surprised to have received that email early this morning!

He's just trying to complete his MOC collection. Someone suggested it was a hint in his mentions. He shot it down. handsome_collector I think these are hints of what’s coming next! 🤞🏽 actionfigureattack Handsome_collector nope. That’d be an expensive way to tease something. but he didn’t directly deny it 👀 He literally said "nope." Sounds like a direct denial to me.

I picked up an HBK & a blue Shamrock this morning from my local Target. Was kinda surprised to see a chase Shamrock still on the pegs, especially since he was the only one (no green attired figs in sight).
