With the jacket on? I’ll try to do it later tonight if not then definitely tomorrow. Both would be excellent if you can. Thank you again for always pulling through. My idea is to swap the head, paint the white trimming on the elbow pads, add the round WCW glasses and maybe find someone who has black wrist bands to create a WCW version. Both!?! You’re killing me! Luckily I figured as much ant took pics of both before leaving the collection room. lol Also it was very stressful finding these, because the one store I knew had them is the store that T0y W!z’s warehouse is directly behind. The first day I left the house at 6:30 because I thought the store opened at 7:00. Only to get there to find out the opened at 6:00. Thankfully they were still somewhere on a trailer. Then I drove up to my normal store who never carries UE’s. When I got there I showed the girl the UPC and she said they had them but they could be anywhere in the back because they were doing the reset and there was new freight all over the backroom. The next two days it was the same results except I was leaving at 5:30 lol. But yesterday my normal store had a location in back for them but they weren’t there. So they said someone either purchased them of the box was misplaced in the back. Which gutted me as I felt that was my real best shot at getting them. Although the manager there did say they’d be getting more on May 10th. Anyway today at the first store the manager said they were still on the trailer but if I came back around 4 he would check and see if he could locate them. But I knew I couldn’t get back there then and went back up to my regular store hoping the case was just misplaced and would be located today. When I got to the aisle they were on the pegs along with 5 or 6 of the Miavia family set. But at $70 I passed on that for now. I am just glad I can get some sleep tonight. lol

PJ That’s exactly what I want to do. That Bret looks amazing!!! Wow! I’ve waited too long not to be able to do that. Also, I didn’t know it took you that many trips to find one, so props to you. I think I might have to figure out something. I live in NYC. The fact that they don’t show if these are available online might not make it worth trying to figure out how to get to Jersey and randomly checking. Also, toyw!z are scalpers… I really hope Mattel figures out a way to redistribute these Bret’s and Pipers. It’s not right that a lot of us don’t have a shot at these and then to top it off if we don’t have access to a Walmart too.

I hear you and I am going to have to go through that again once the reports of the first Supreme Sting finding hits. lol
As much as I was excited to hear these and the Supreme Sting were coming out my excitement instantly turned to major worry. And that was because my three all time favorite wrestlers were WalMart Exclusives that I had/have to have. And as you know I don’t do secondary market on new toys.

I think the “Orton” hands are great for Piper’s eye poke.

Nice pics. Got the MNW Ultimates myself and Piper with the ICON shirt and jacket looks amazing. Didn't bother to tuck in shirt tho. Bret doesn't look horrible with the glasses but never been a fan of any of his sculpts. I use the expressionless sculpts on mine

So in case anyone was curious with the Mattel Creations bigger Cody torso the UE 21 jacket won’t clip. Nice pics. Got the MNW Ultimates myself and Piper with the ICON shirt and jacket looks amazing. Didn't bother to tuck in shirt tho. Bret doesn't look horrible with the glasses but never been a fan of any of his sculpts. I use the expressionless sculpts on mine I think Bret’s best head scan is the E94(?)

I thought about picking up that Duke figure, but I passed on it for now. I have a few GI Joes, but not many. Same with X-Men.

Although $27 a figure is making it harder to not be more selective. And X-Men if I don’t go all in I always buy Cyclops, Gambit, Nightcrawler and Wolverine. With the X-Men ‘97 I at least want to get the main team.

With the X-Men ‘97 I at least want to get the main team. Same. Currently for JOE's I have a Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Tomax, Xamot, Crimson Guard, and Sgt. Slaughter. I would have gotten Shipwreck and Spirit Iron-Knife, but the boxes didn't have windows. Also same with X-Men, I just get the ones I really liked. Especially those from the 90s X-Men cartoon show, and the New X-Men 97 which is basically the same. Cyclops and Gambit are my favorites, but I always pick up a Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Beast, Professor X and Magneto.
