PJ, it’s always nice to hear how your wife and daughter pick you up figures here and there on their travels. But how do they know what you want and don’t want? I mean, you may be the most decisive person I’ve ever come across. If a wrestler doesn’t meet your criteria (fond memories; enjoyed watching them on TV) you really have no time for that nonsense. So do they have a list? Or do they generally know who you’d be interested in?

This is actually the only version of Terry I was willing to purchase to complete my tag team with Mick. I have the coliseum version, but only purchased it for Hogan lol

Married since ‘93 so she knows. |

UPDATED 9/6*I received another Elite Series 104 Rick Steiner from Amazon yesterday. It was going to be my MiB figure, but the box was damaged. Anyway like the other two the eyes are weird looking, but this one’s is the best of the three.

I saw at least 10 AJ Styles and 5 McIntyres from E104 at the Middletown NY Walmart yesterday. Monroe had a lien Dakota Kai and Airmont didn’t have any E104.  So my UE Orton has been pushed up from arriving Oct 2 to arriving this Wednesday by Amazon. The funds were taken overnight and now Amazon says it’s scheduled for tomorrow. |

I hate and like this figure at the same time. Knowing the fact the 80% of the budget went to macho and now he will never be released (currently) and we get this basic looking ultimate. His upcoming basic should have been his ultimate instead of the black on black. The figure itself is nice but the attire blows. With the 3 or so top picks elites released all within same year or so the ultimate should have been a flashback imo. I since put a young Randy head (SS elite) on him and I like it even better. |

Totally agree. I do think we'll get a flashback/earlier UE of him too sooner or later though. |

UPDATED 9/23*Yesterday I picked up the SummerSlam Hulk Hogan at Target. Now I just need to find Ziggler so Mr Perfect can have some legs.     I actually purchased a 2nd one of these Hogans to turn into a bane custom. I bought the jokerised joker baf set for 7 bucks at target and it came with a jokerised bane head, and no other figure of the set, so I picked this figure for the best look for bane. Just a lil paint and should be gtg 😂 |

I found a bin with most of my Mattel WWE Rumblers in it. So I took some pics. imgur.com/a/WVbhjrxUPDATED 9/23*Yesterday I picked up the SummerSlam Hulk Hogan at Target.

Just a lil paint and should be gtg 😂 I think the rest of that Jokerized DKR set will be out on Oct 1. At least that’s what they and the Animated Condiment King wave are listed as. Mattel’s Batman/DCSU line did release a camouflage pants Bane.  |

That’s the Bron I want. Don’t care about the matching Rick attire. The white tape and boots and multi colors look better than just pink/black.
