Congrats. These rare warriors are a weird thing to me, objectively I have zero connection to them or need for them in that they’re obviously made up gimmicks/attires but just the very fact that they’re such low run numbers, the high of knowing I’m one of only 15 people maximum in the world to own one would make me want one. Nice work 👌🏻 The Ultimate Warrior was a smart businessman. He got these figures made specifically for himself and made thousands of dollars for each of these limited number figures by just autographing and selling them. He understood collectibles and I never heard any stories about him being broke. |

Not familiar with these and Def would not spend more than a 100 quid on them but glad to see they are in the hands of a collector. You have a better collection Pic? Would love to see them all.

Congratulations on getting that Warrior. It's the most unique of his exclusives.
I think this has been lost with time. Just like his other exclusives. We don't hear guys requesting them on here. If Mattel has the right to re-do them again that is.

That Warrior is one of the best figures Mattel ever made and I never get tired of seeing it. Congratulations! When reading the thread title, my mind first assumed you meant the Enzo Retro which has been a want of mine since first seeing it! Much like R&B Greg, it is the lore and controversy around it that makes me desire it that much more…the design is fine but nothing next-level.  Your new Warrior is probably about as cool haha Hey bud, if you dont mind typing a few sentences, whats the lore and controversy around the Enzo figure? I'm not sure I'm aware of that |

I'm not sure I'm aware of that From my questionable and unreliable memory: Mattel showed off the Enzo Retro figure seen below. I believe it is the only time it was ever shown. Not too long after this prototype was displayed, some very serious allegations came out against Enzo. WWE released him shortly after that (though I can’t recall what the reason they gave). The figure was never really seen again though I’ve heard it exists on the collections of others. No idea how many exist. Parts of the figure mold were used for others as I recall. |

Man how do you just "think" you have a several thousand dollar figure just lying around lol? Congrats though man, it seems to be the least sought after of the 4 for whatever reason but it's honestly my favorite one. Now if anyone has the 2k14 complete just lying around they want to move.... (cheap plug) |

(cheap plug) Haha, yes I have one. Of course there's always the possibility it's a "fake," but I did get it many years ago when supposed copies or prototypes of them were popping up. And it does have the correct head and facepaint from what I can tell. Who knows though I guess |

Who knows though I guess Just an FYI the USA Warrior is a 1 of 5 Legends figure, it is the most rare in comparison to the 3 DM exclusives. But as you mentioned a few leaked out of the factory. |

But I'm no expert on the topic but I trust my source 100 percent. All I could do is compare it with mine. And I can confidently say with 99.9% positivity mine is real. I'm only missing the 2k14. You can always DM my IG and I can take a look, again, no expert but can at least compare if you want to. Edit: realized you weren't quoting/asking me lol, my bad |

I’d love to see it It's Dod_figures but it hasn't been posted yet. I will admit I'm not exactly a crafty veteran using IG as my buddy does most of it. He's the creative one so he wants to do something cool with it when he comes down, he just hasnt been down since I got it. I basically just know how to take a pic or record a video and post it lol. |
