Just got these in the mail after a great deal on FB LJN Bret Hart  Been wanting one for years for my Hitman collection, never could find one i could afford, ive seen ones looking worse going for more than what i paid. I know theyre valuable but i couldnt justify paying more than 50 bucks for one figure, especially with paint loss and such. But im very happy, plus it came with a belt. I dont think i need it so i may resell it, is there value in the belts, the paint is pretty good. I also got the Jakks bnb Bret in another deal. Im thinking of touching up the paint, this figure is never leaving my collection so im not worried about affecting value, but do the signs of play make it look better, a figure used and loved. Thoughts? |

I wouldn't call the tag belts rare; they came with every boxed team.

Nice pick-up! I personally would do the touch ups on him for your display! The tag team title is a nice touch, IMO they are hard to find!

WOW!! I have a Bret LJN that i've been wanting to have re-done for years. But I haven't the first clue on how to do it. Your's looks great!
So you just clean it, paint it with acrylic paint, and then seal it with mod podge?
