well, FINALLY, my E18 Jerry Lawler came in.
someone bought it at RSF and then posted it to ebay. I stumbled on the auction at .99!!! 0 BIDS, 10 hrs left. throughout the day, others found the auction and bid it up, but i still won it.
unfortunately, hurricane sandy hit and devastated the infrastructure for a bit, stranding my lawler out in the east coast for a few weeks.
19 full days later, the tracking code finally indicated that it was delivered; and boy was it!
this fig is definitely one of my top faves now. very detailed! i really like the straps on the boots. the crown is pretty decked out. it looks to be made out of 3 parts. the white 'fur' is actually a softer rubber that grips the head really really well.
cape looks good all around. paint apps are clean
I really dig on Jerry's ring gear. the only other attire i personally would have wanted was a blue/white. the all black looks sweet though. the crowns on the wrist bands are pretty detailed for their small size.
as far as jerry's body goes, i certainly wouldnt consider it a 'fat' sculpt. it captures jerry's barrel chested, kinda eggy body shape. they even sculpted in some abs which makes me wish they had given the figure a 70's memphis scan over the more modern looking scan.
overall, like i said this figure is one of my top favorites. mattel knocked another figure out of the park!! 5 stars. MY jerry lawler has messed up ankles though; they are loose on the sideways tilt, but are 'frozen' and cannot move up and down. plus the head is kinda loose and wobbly......plus he kinda has googley eyes, BUT I MEAN I AM STILL loving the hell out of this fig.
the king baby, INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION!!
OR is JERRY WORTHY enough to carry the big gold?!
WHAT ABOUT THE THE 10 LBS OF GOLD?!?!
you know what they say; TO BE THE MAN, YOU'VE GOTTA BEAT THE MAN, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
