Hard Times is looking for a WWE Elite figure when no one's ordering them because of seas of Junkyard Dogs.
>>5515582
Im new to collecting Wrestling figures, where is he available?
I haven't owned any wrestling figures since the bone cruncher days, but once pic related gets an elite release, it will be an instant day one purchase
>>5515582
>tfw 10 Hunter Hearst Helmsleys and not a single Big Boss Man at local TRU
If this turns out to be a blank like the Cactus Jack reissue I'm gonna be super asshurt
>>5516216
Mick didn't re-up his Legends contract, there's no reason for Shawn's figure getting pulled.
>>5515582
I stopped collecting these when Jakks lost the license. No coherent branding or schedule. Harder to follow than the basket cases that are Star Wars Black and Marvel Legends.
They are just beginning to roll out, i was luck enough to get there when the cardboard boxes were opened up new the aisles. Managed to get a Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
>>5516349
Nice ponytail with a tie up.
Real coat Taker is absolutely boss.
>>5515969
WWE needs to be cool for once and let him get an SH Figuarts.
>>5516764
will never happen, if NJPW can't get in on that stuff, WWE sure as hell can't.
What wreslting figure come with good clothes for marvel legends or star wars black series?
>>5517158
They're a different scale, they'll all be too big for ML.
>>5517158
Defining moments sting
>>5517189
I can trim them down for a better fit or tattered look to make it war torn, I just wanted some advice.
>>5517581
Ah, okay. I guess first thing I'd tell you is to avoid the rubber shirts, they won't serve your purposes at all. If you go on ebay and use
>mattel wwe shirt -rubber
as the search term there's a lot of good ones to choose from without having to buy an entire figure.
There's also http://www.ralphsfigureclothing.com which has an insane amount of custom clothes to choose from. Dusters, t-shirts, karate gis, fur coats, etc.
If you're looking for individual retail figures that come with shirts, then Randy Ortons, CM Punks, and John Cenas tend to have a high volume of releases with cloth materials. One kind of unusual one to come out recently was a Daniel Bryan figure that included a full fabric jumpsuit. It's not an expensive figure, either, but the usefulness of said jumpsuit might be questionable.
>>5516450
The coat looks pretty good on other takers desu

So how was your day?
>>5519144
Hey, I have that Ambrose too. He's pretty neat. Bit of a dopey face, but once you have him in a fighting pose he's pretty good.

To be fair I'd buy the fuck out of a Young Bucks set with Japanese figure articulation.

Also Finn is obsessed with Lego, action figures and Japan surely that nigga posts here.

I found 2 Dude Love Jakks Classic Figures autographed by Mick Foley cleaning out my closet yesterday, what do?
>>5519510
Keep them and cherish them or be a cunt and scalp it when Mick inevitably dies.
>>5519144
The WM32 Lesnar? Those weren't covered by the deal. You were rung up correctly, only Ambrose qualified and you needed another to complete the discount.
>>5519521
Shit you're absolutely right
I'm a moron
cheeky
>>5519521
This was not the case at all at my local TRU and the signs made sure to acknowledge it. All 19.99 elites were part of the sale, which included the WM30 BAF figures too.
>>5519445
No I don't.
>Hear about the 2 Elites for $30 thing at TRU
>Head out, find some of the new Taker
>They only really have the new Taker, otherwise it's just Elites of Fandango and shit
>Can't take advantage of the deal because I don't want anyone else, end up not getting any wrestling stuff at all as a result
Damn you, Geoffrey
>>5520786
How could you not want Fandango? The paint apps on his pants are awesome
>>5520871
He's a jobber
>>5520618
saw this today, his "hoodie" was a cut piece of t-shirt
>>5521443
and if you can't tell, that's a basic swapped in there as well. all that to save $10
>>5519445
>Finn cucked Bailey's boyfriend

What good are wrestling toys without a jobber for them to beat up on?
>decide to get into wrestling figs
>want to get a Cena fig first because I'm a faggot mark
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015QZN9E2
Is this the best Cena figure available? Of all the ones I saw on amazon he seems to have the best combination of face/body sculpt and articulation. The belt's a neat bonus but I'm bummed he doesn't come with a shirt.
>>5525406
Most of them are basically the exact same. Pick which shirt and color you like the most and go wild. I forget when they updated his mold, buy the first few years have noticeably longer shorts.
>>5525406
I bought it solely for the title but honestly all of Cena's Elites are pretty good.
>>5525406
This is one of my favorite color schemes and it comes with a belt while others are just shirts and mic. I'm a huge cena mark and I'm totally getting this
>>5515582
Did you check his grave?
>>5519144
>Lesner and Ambrose
At least you're ready for Wrestlemania!
>>5525406
They're all the same tbqh
The only big choice you need to make is whether you want him to have Reeboks or Vans
DF stone cold is out
If anyone on here can find me a Wrestlemania Seth Rollins with close to perfect paint apps on the face, I will pay you $60 for it
>>5519401
>waiting for Asuka to kick the shit out of her
such disappoint
>>5525406
The fact you want to own a cena figure makes me think you're underage. There's no way adults actually go out of their way to buy figures of that untalented hack.
I have a WWE mattel collection of around 1200. Not a single one of them are Cena
I also have an older collection of Jakks WWE figures. I would say around 600. Not a single Cena.
It sucks if you see a 2-pack and you want one of the figures but that bum is also included.
>>5528823
>figure expert
post pics of collection, fag
>>5528823
Cena is anything but untalented, you retard. I've watched him since his Prototype days and he is a solid wrestler and mc. If you have problems with what the writer's put together for him, then your anger is misdirected you cock gobbling zit face.

>B,,But Ive been watching him since his prototype days
>I..It's the writers fault
First of all. I don't care how long you've been watching him. I have been a wrestling fan for 30 years and a wrestler for 12. It's not the shitty writers that make him wrestle like shit. He's just a roided up unathletic retard who thinks pandering to a crowd and repeating the same shit will get him over. Everything ge does is horrible. Just because you watch only WWE doesn't mean you know shit about wrestling.
>>5528839
>you cock gobbling zit face
He said he WASN'T a cena fan. His fabase are kids-young teenagers with acne problems and are probably still questioning their sexuality.
>>5525406
>being a mark
>for Cena of all people
Why can't you just cheer for Reigns like they want you to?
>>5528860
This
Watch a smarkbusters video sometime
>>5528860
Why the fuck do you think he repeats himself? Vince uses him as this era's Hulk Hogan. You actually think he is given much freedom when it comes to what he says? Just like every other wrestler, moreso on his part since he is/was the face, he has to make sure to repeat certain shit because muh marketing.
You just sound like a salty motherfucker that wasted 12 years of his life and never got anywhere.
/micdrop
>>5528869
You do know Smarkbusters are trolls right? They purposely say things just to get a reaction from people.
>>5528872
>You actually think he is given much freedom when it comes to what he says?
Yeah I'm sure the 15 time champion Golden Boy gets no freedom to say anything...Except when he actually does go off script which is often and has been proven
>You just sound like a salty motherfucker that wasted 12 years of his life and never got anywhere.
Not at all. I live comfortably because of it. Going by your comeback makes me think you're salty considering it was irrelevant to the point.
>>5525406
why did you upload a white background jpg?
>>5515582
Why the fuck can't someone make figures of LU?
>>5528902
because no one watches it.
>>5528872
OP just got fucking wrekt!
>>5528951
dammit, i hope you are lying because the show is really entertaining.
>>5528902

So do good DX figures exist? Because good god I want some so bad.
>>5531927
WM 13 Shawn Micheals and Blue Blood/93' HHH exist
>>5528823
this is some psychotic shit dude
>>5531927
We supposedly have a DX Shawn coming to Walgreens
Also if you have a Kmart nearby you might wanna look for X-Pac
I saw four Bossmen yesterday at TRU and today they were all gone.
I wish I got one now.
>>5528876
Wrestling Otaku detected
>>5534019
don't say shit like that. My TRU had 15 yesterday and I didn't have the loot to get all the figures I wanted
>>5528902
>tfw no figures of Pentagon Jr. or our lord and master Mil Muertes
Get hype!!
bunny for hall of fame
Jackpot.
Also, my Walmart constantly mangles the fuck out of the cards on the WWE figs. If I was a MOC collector I'd be pissed.
>>5534915
>dat APA door & table set
>my sides
You're awesome.
>>5535370
I need beer cans and cards. Maybe once I get a better set.up I'll have them sitting at the table
>>5535283
Oh man, too bad that Sasha with belt has such a fucked up card
>>5535283
Do they just shove the WWEWHC into some of the figures just because they realize a lot of people want to have the scale belt? If that Sasha is decent I'd probably get it since Sasha is great and I've been wanting a scale belt sooner or later.
>>5535972
It's just anot at random chase figure thing. There's been plenty of opportunities to get the actual belts that aren't these weird gold ones.
>>5525406
Well, I got my Cena. The sculpt is great, but holy shit the detail on the US title belt is insane for a 20 dollar Mattel figure. I'm really impressed.
Like I said, I'm just now starting my collection. Am I up shit creek if I want a CM Punk figure?
>>5536207
>like a dozen Elites alone of the faggot
>he's a pegwarmer because no one gives a fuck about him anymore and hasn't for two years
Go into any Wal Mart and you're sure to see this at the very least.
>>5536207
>I got my Cena
But why?
>CM Punk figure
Check your TRU. There should still be a bunch of Punk vs Taker two-packs shelfwarming.
>>5536293
>Cena rules
Trying really hard to respect your opinion about him, friendo. A major part of why I and many people don't like Cena is the way he's booked which is only partly his fault.
But there are plenty of better talkers than Cena.
Punk was best in the world, though.
>>5536207
Tru has a exclusive punk figure so that's the best to go
OP here, found a Big Boss Man! No sign of E40 or E41 anywhere though. Has anyone seen either of them?
>>5535283
Shit. All those ladies. You must live in GB. That never happens here in the States.

What the hell is going on with that mask?
>>5538301
Sometimes during his entrance he wears a mouth cover that he removes before the match.
It emulates his superior Samuray Del Sol mask look.
Those new Mighty Minis or whatever,
What are the codes on them?
>>5530373
It gets lower ratings than TNA.
>>5538211
That's just hilariously dumb, but I suppose it'd be fun to pose next to actual Terminator figs.
>>5538213
Actually looks pretty good. I've always liked the cape; it's the one thing he's gotten on the main roster that's good for him.
>>5538217
Fuck, the trombone alone might be tempting.
>>5538598
On a network practically nobody has, while TNA is on the channel that used to be the TV Guide.
>>5528741
Is anyone up for this?

I saw him at Toys R Us yesterday, OP
>>5538237
Fuck thats awesome
the store i work in has 2 section of this guy

which one do you work in?
>>5516450
Is that Louis CK?

Check your toys r us, they've been stocking the shit out of them recently with Elite 40 and shit.
Sami Zayn is the only one that flies off the shelves.
>>5550731
>there's no Gokuaku Domei figures with BAF Shiro Abe
>>5551235
also be sure to check ya walmart. Got sami and cena e40 (along with doink...tons of e34 at my local walmarts for some reason) for like $18 each. also TONS of b58, grabbed bailey.
>>5552358
>why even live

Did anybody here check out that JoeAtlanta toy fair a few days ago? They had a guy with three tubs of jakks figures he was trying to liquidate.
>scored this three pack for $30
>>5515582
I just found 8 of him at a toys r us, also the Austin defining moments and hunter hearst
>>5555283
yeah he's everywhere now. the op image is 3 weeks old
>>5548152
Crush Gals!? NIGGA we will be lucky if we even get ASUKA! WWE haaaattttes Asians
>>5555733
I'm talking in general though..
>>5554196
A lot of Jakks 3 packs are getting pretty valuable
>>5555743
In WWF/WWE's 35+ years of toy marketing, they always hated to do Asian characters
Sure you can argue "RICK THE DRAGON" got a toy. Sure, the guy from HAWAII. Try again
Taka Michinoku. Only 2 figures, both being retool/repaints of Ken Shamrock toys.
Funaki. Nothing
Gail Kim. NOTHING.
>>5555769
I think I wasn't quite clear, I was talking like about in Japan
Anyone get this yet? Kinda tempted just for the belts alone, but his eyebrows look terrible
>>5556479
He's pretty much the HoF Austin as far as detail
The belts are nice though, they've got thread detail on them so they actually look leathery
>>5556479
Picked it up yesterday. It's the exact same head as on most of his figures.
>>5556479
I like his ringside exclusive evil smirk.
>>5556479
It's a pretty good figure as long as you get one with a good beard, it's fucking ridiculous though that for 25 bucks they don't have any extra fucking hands.
>>5554196
Here's some pics
>>5559257
>>5559259
>>5559257
>>5559259

Dean's really neat. He's my first Elite (and first wrestling figure in general) and he's not bad for just under 20 bucks. Got a fixed expression of an ABSOLUTE MADMAN though.
>>5559259
Mankind was a lunatic. Dean Ambrose is just some aspergers retard that found a pack of Mountain Dew
WHAT IS THE BEST HOGAN TO BUY TO CELEBRATE HOGAN GOING OVER GAWKER BROTHER?

>>5560342
There's something off about the hair, I can't place it. It's too long and too bald for the era of Hogan it's supposed to be?
>>5560350
1st figure = best figure
>>5560339
I broke out my HoF Elite Hogan yesterday. I've got him mid-shirt tear on my desk brother.
>>5560350
that's why I went with the modern day elite, since the bandana isn't removable without having holes in his head.
Umaga is literally
PERFECT
>>5563335
he even has a specially made hand made for his samoan spike
dat detail
Managed to find Bayley, Sasha, Owens, Neville and Elite Zayn all in one shopping trip. Great success
>>5555769
Well Hideo Itami has a Basic, so that's progress. I'll bet we'll have a Nakamura Elite at least announced with the next year.
I like how even when the store people are putting up the newest line of basics right as i'm walking around, the divas are NOWHERE to be seen.
>>5515582
Shit information to go by, but does anyone here know of a figure from the late 90s/early 00s of a wrestler that had a throwing feature when you squeezed his legs? He came with a referee figure that he was designed to throw and looked like the edge and had flames running down his legs.
I got that set alongside a wcw roddy piper, so I assume he's also from wcw but I have no recollection as I was <8.
>>5569127
I did a bunch of google image searching and couldn't find shit.
What Roddy Piper figure was it? Maybe that could help with dating it. Also, you say flames on legs, that sounds like Bam Bam Bigelow, but he looks nothing like Edge.
>>5569271
Yeah I did search through myself, but any reference to a referee brings up some completely unrelated figure, and it's sort of the defining feature of the set. The first few results is the roddy I had (forgot about the ridiculous bagpipes he came with there).
The flames on the legs actually stuck out from the sides too, they weren't painted on like Bam's. They were also pure red on black legs if that helps.
HOLY SHIT
Toys R us actually stocked the latest elite series. Elite 41. First time i've ever seen the series caught up in this area.
>>5569465
Went to TRU on Sunday and the pegs were filled with Elites from different series' as well as one Dean Ambrose from Series 41. I figured they got a case in and only had room for one figure so I asked an employee if they had anymore in the back. He said no. Went back a few days later and the rest were all put up except for Lita and Balor (the ones I wanted). Motherfucker just straight up lied to me.
>>5516216
that mini ladder... ugh
>>5569304
Are you talking about the Kevin Nash figure? You squeeze his legs and his arms move.
Don't forget, until Saturday you can get the 4 Horseman Target exclusive for $13 with the target cartwheel app.
It's already discounted, so the app gives you a 50% off coupon to knock off more.
>>5571333
Yes that's the guy! Thanks a lot anon, I've been trying to find that guy for ages now.
When wrestling was shown in the UK pretty much everything but the fight itself was cut, so if a wrestler didn't have a gimmick or weren't well known already they remained mostly unknown. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
>>5572205
You're welcome, anon. Good hunting!
Questions to you all:
How are the midget figures?
How are the female figures?
How are the parts in those crazy build-a-wrestler packs? Is the plastic cheap rubbery or more firm?
Generally a Hasbro buyer, and not really into wrestling.
>>5572336
The female figures are typically the exact same bodies with different heads
>>5572336
The midget figures are great.
The build a wrestler packs lack the ab crunch of regular elite figures but have everything else. Plus they come with so many accessories that aren't available anywhere else
>>5572336
>>5572464
The figures themselves are of regular mattel wwe quality, and will vary from hard durable plastic to soft for others (like a butcher's apron)
