FYI for those interested; this week POP! Vinyls are buy-1-get-1-free at Walgreens if you have their club card. My daughter & I were able to pick up the WG-exclusive Jack Skellington and AT-AT Driver for $5 each yesterday.

I see most of my usuals (Perfect, Rude, Piper, DiBiase, etc.) listed already within this thread. The only one that I could add that hasn't been mentioned yet is Paul Orndorff.

Stop trying to make me look bad, facts!!!! I'll be darned if this pic doesn't have the most entertaining expression that you'll find anywhere from Spud.

So, I've purchased eight of the Loyal Subjects MotU Action Vinyls blind boxes. Here's what I've received so far: 1 X Skeletor 1 X Stratos 2 X Beast Man (again, one of which was missing his right arm) 4 X Trap Jaw All from the same case? Nah, I got my first two (right arm-less Beastie & TJ) from a TRU store. The next four (Beastie, Stratos & TJ X 2) were from TRU.com. The last two (Skelly & TJ) were from a Hot Topic.

In the early 90s, I dressed up as Paul Bearer. Most everyone thought that I was Gomez Adams. *sigh* Two years ago, I created my own character that I dressed up as for work. "El Cráneo Eléctrica Hecha de Gatos" (The Electric Skull Made of Cats). If you look closely, my t-shirt has pictures of housecats that together form a human skull. Fairly outrageous, but what in wrestling ISN'T?!

Personally, I have seen neither hide nor hair of the Heenan Family set at any of the north Portland/Vancouver, WA-area Targets. Just tons of Four Horsemen sets.

I REALLY want a Faker, but I see that the Loyal Subjects made him a chase figure, like 1 in 96 or something crazy along those lines... Heck with that. Yeah, I was a little bummed about that too. Faker is 1/96, Teela is 1/48, and Evil Lyn is 1/24. The only good thing is that the case assortments are much more randomized than they used to be. Someone over on he-man.org pulled two Evil Lyns out of the same case. I bought the last two at one of my local TRUs, and got one Trap Jaw and one Beast Man. The Beast Man was missing his right arm!!! Already have an email out to the Loyal Subject to see what they can do, since TRU won't take back blind box items.

I saw that ADR had dropped out, and Jeff Hardy will be taking his place VS. Rey Mysterio.

Not Mattel, but I found a case of the Loyal Subjects MOTU vinyl figures at TRU today. I bought two and ended up with Man-E-Faces and Evil Lyn. Here's what they look like if you didn't know these were coming: I REALLY want a Faker, but I see that the Loyal Subjects made him a chase figure, like 1 in 96 or something crazy along those lines... Heck with that.

I am ALWAYS getting an urge to sell all my WWE figs... from my girlfriend. What's her issue with them? I'm asking because I've been into stuff for years and I hear this constantly. I play guitar, guys are always mentioning their wives complaining about their gear. I'm also a horror movie buff, hear the same about movies and horror collectibles too. Wanna know the couples that seem to work out (not a judgement on your and yours, just saying for convo sake)? Ones that don't complain constantly about things that make their significant other happy. I've been dating my GF now for about 8 years, with marriage looming. We allow each other to buy whatever we want, as long as the bills are paid and there is very little complaining about it. I wouldn't date someone that's NOT like that. Then again, I'm 36 and have a lot less tolerance toward stuff like this than I did in my 20s or teens. LOL This was more of a crack than a complaint. She doesn't have an issue with the hobby itself, but the fact that I have boxes upon boxes that have filled up my half of the garage. I just bought a brand new Jeep not long ago, and she'd like me to park it inside instead of in the driveway. But then where would I put my stuff?! My girlfriend has no problem with the simple act of me collecting, but I have a space issue where I have more figures than space, so as a result our house is a bit of an overcrowded eyesore due to all my stuff being everywhere. So, the hobby itself doesn't bother her, just the collateral damage... This man feels my pain!

Maybe he'll work behind the scenes at NXT, in order to get back together with the Hip Hop Hippo.
