The modern cage doesn't come with any turnbuckles.
It does come with black ring posts and some black ringsteps though.....but no turnbuckles

Could be the same as the post above, but google extreme sets .com They do crowd arena backgrounds and they are among the best i've seen but are expensive. I'd love a couple of them but can't justify the cost with shipping to the UK $70 for the backdrop n shipping to ny is $22 n nyc tax! Mattel needs to cash out on this. $89 to ship to the UK plus a chance of customs fees upon delivery. I dont think so. They do look the business tho |

Do you guys think he was supposed to come with the WCW U.S. belt as packaging states but something fell through? No, Mattel don't have the rights to WCW belts. It's a simple wording error. This. US title is just an error. Mattel can't make any WCW belts. With or without the belt its a great figure and yeh I agree I like it without the 5oclock shadow. Probably one of those figures that looks better in hand than in pictures |

Received Elite 37 Dean Malenko, not a bad figure in person. I got mine this morning too, its a great looking figure and the scan looks a lot better in person |

I never realised Savage was based on Mega Powers attire, now i'm gutted it doesn't include a shirt or jacket as we're not likely to see another elite Mega Powers again or for a long time at least. Roman Reigns could have just included his new vest. We don't need another set of barricades identical to his last release or the plain vest, pointless and could have left more money for elsewhere in the set. APA - don't have to repeat what everyone else has said. Running change to sleeveless shirts is an improvement but Farooq's scan.......DAMN!!!! I will still buy though for the cool accessories and the fact we might not get them again. Adam Rose I have no interest in. Daniel Bryan is a solid figure, good scan and shirt but feels like we have had an overkill of Daniel Bryans lately. That Savage is not based on Mega Powers. I've got an OSFTM Savage (LJN style) with this same exact outfit on (but it includes shirt LOL) Is it not based on WCW Mega Powers? Looks like this exact attire minus the shirt and jacket  |

I've noticed that on a lot of my older figures I have displayed and stored with the older style cloth shirts, the bottom of them is curling/rolling up, same with some of the sleeves.
Some of them are really bad, E1 Rey Mysterio especially.
Is there any way that these can be flattened out straight again and they stay that way? Anyone tried ironing/steaming or any other way that could work?
Cheers

Is there any chance whatsoever of finding an elite 36 Dean Ambrose? Still haven't managed to find it after going to every Toys 'R Us and Smyths in the north west. Not sure of your location but the Smyths in Leeds had plenty in the other day |

Hogan and Savage are re-releases but I dont think i've seen that Piper before.
Is that a new figure? Or is it the Entrance Great without the gear on?

Did I enjoy this? Well I can't really say if I did, or I didn't but probably if I had to guess I would say there's a good chance that I might or might not have done but maybe I did or maybe I didn't in 2-3 months time possibly yes or no.

Quick question, are the steel steps that come with the ASR identical to the steel steps that come with the ESR?
I want to add a second set and there a few knocking about on the bay but don't want to end up with different size/colour/style steps.
Cheers

It would be awesome if Ringside or WCT released an ASR apron pack and included various PPV aprons (Royal Rumble / Summerslam / MITB / Survivor Series) and also aprons like NXT, Superstars.

Where can I get some of those spice racks at? I have tons of those deluxe stands, but its hard to stand them up on that small peg, so the spice racks might be a good option to switch it up. They are called Copco 2555-0188 Non-Skid 3-Tier Cabinet Organizer and can be found on the US Amazon site. They come in 10-inch or 15-inch widths, about $8 each. I have them in my display cabinet, shipping to the UK was pretty cheap |
