Who made that incredible USA Lex Luger?
I have seen amazing Hasbro customs, but I'm not sure I'd say this is one. It's literally just repainted. Repainted well -- but it would be pretty easy for many good artists
It isn’t just a repaint. The Lex I bought from him was a resin recast. Takes talent to basically reprint the whole figure. |

Hopefully Ric Flair comes with a non bloody alternate head I would certainly prefer that. Also, I wish his hair wasn’t as big. The arms are long too but that isn’t a surprise by now. Hopefully we get a flair in a robe at some point too. I think the hair is a good representation of how he looked at the end of his mania 8 match with Savage - it’s not a figure I ever thought I needed, but I think I’ll get it. |

that's the first time a full render of Todd and Candido have been shown, right? could the insane delay of series 2 have been because series 3 shipped with series 2 and series 4 is nearly ready to ship and Zombie just shut the  up for once? no "we've got the cardboard boxes at the factory, should be getting tape any day now" updates |

There was a “delay” to us but well known early on to ZST who was doing it to save shipping costs incurred from “the factory”. When deciding to keep the original anticipated date or have them held, ZST weighed: What does he have to gain? (money) vs. What does he have to lose? (a few customers and his word). Money will always trump. Series 2 looks good. Expect higher prices for the in-stock Series 3+, bundles will be your best bet. *IMHO* |

It isn’t too far off but I think it stands out a bit. Maybe it’s that it looks long instead of poofy/wispy?  It isn’t at all that it is a bad figure…though I think I will hold out on this one. I really think there are much better ones in the pipeline. |

Nice. Did they say who belongs in what series? I assume that Power & Glory, Slick, OMG and Tunney are in one series/set; usually they have 6 per set, is there another figure with that set? When are the Road Warriors, Macho Man, WM8 Ric Flair and black singlet Andre being released? Are they in set four? Seems like a lot of heavy hitters for one set. The boxes in one of his video said One Man Gang was series 3. In the same video, Andre’s boxes don’t show a series number and instead say “Black Strap Variant.” The 2 packs are probably going to be individual releases (this is me speculating). Series 4 could go a few different ways: -There was talk about Mark Sterling being a 1-off. -Gargano was also supposed to be a one off. -Booger was supposed to be an SDCC exclusive (though they may make that version just in the orange card). So if you removed all the figures mentioned above, series 4 would be made up of Macho, Flair, Candido, Ahmed, and Pettengill. Is he going to 5 figures a wave/set? |

MoM variants live on Hasttel's site. Got a set. Hefty price for mid figs. Not a fan of the variants. Will any be on card or all loose bags? |

Got 2 of each of the originals, no bubble issues on mine. I assume these must have been produced pretty close to when the originals were. |

Got a shipping confirmation email for my complete set of Heels and Faces Series 2 tonight. Will post pics as soon as it arrives. Any comparison shot requests? I’ve got all of the previous H&F figures, most Hasbros, all Mattel Retros, and both Hayabusas from Chella/FC.

Like I say, they're great looking figures, but I'm not interested in spending 160 on them when I wasn't even a MoM fan as a kid. Them selling out isn't exactly justification for the price, either. People will spend a lot on something if they really want it, like heroin, for instance, and season tickets at the local strip club. |

I believe he is taking half of them to NYCC to sell.
Other half is being listed on his website over 2 instalments (another to come tonight)
