There's a couple of figs I want to get soon.

- Steven Richards & Victoria (you just knew I'd have to buy them).
- Shelton Benjamin Backlash (ain't seen one cheap enough yet).
- Randy Orton & Batista Adrenaline (too lazy to order it).

My 2 woolies stores both have crap for figs, the old Raw Uncovered and RA 6.

Would be cool with a Rene fig if they used the same cutout/ material design as flair's robe and put RD on the upper part.

have u checked ebay stevie?!
im after a shelton too and its going for about £7at the mo i think

I saw Orton and Batista real cheap on ebay. 12.99 I thought.

I bought it here in Holland for just 20 euros

[intense]

Is there any place or magazines that would list how much old action figures are worth? Kind of like for sports cards theres Becketts. Is there anything like that for collectibles? Thanks

[FWWCyrus]

there prob is.
ive got the book that tells you everything that has been brought out, but it doesn't have any prices in it.

head over to wrestlingfigs.com (i think) and go to the forum. theres a few guys there that can tell u what figs u have that are worth something

why what u got?!

I ordered Batista & Orton today, finally could be arsed to do it. Can't wait to relegate my old Orton to the draw under my bed with the other 50 or so figs go when I don't want to display them anymore.

I might have a look on Ebay for when a Shelton auction is ending and I'll try to win one.

Got Sgt Slaughter (shame the hat don't come off) and George "The Animal" Steele (wo, real hair on his chest and arms) the other day, well cool they are.

There are THREE (!!!) versions of the CS 2 Slaughter.

Version 1: Hat doesn't come off
Version 2: Hat comes off
Version 3: Jacket is seperately packaged

Why didn't you get the Legend vs. Legend Killer set? Highspots has it for only $ 20. That Slaughter pwns all the others.

Anyway, saw pics of RA 10.5 yesterday and CS 4 today. RA 10.5 looks wicked, JBL has long thights (like in his APA days), Tajiri has green mist at his mouth, Matt Hardy is just a RA 9 repaint, Noble has long thights, Shelton Benjamin fucking pwns and Charlie Haas has his new blue thights.

CS 4: Piper is with long hair (FFS), with MOLDED on shirt , Yoko is AWESOME, but is a bit too fat IMO (and he is R-3), Tito has red thights (white would have made some more sense, at least they didn't make him El Matador), Hacksaw has his 2x4, but IMO looks like an common figure. Hilbilly is great, and guess what, his clothes are removable.

Why couldn't they do that with Piper

Will post pics later

I ordered the Batista & Orton Adrenaline 7 two-pack yesterday at 11:55am. It came about 15 mins ago.

Batista is pretty much like his original figure, just with black paint on tights. I gave him William Regal's kneepads (the crimson coloured ones).

Orton rocks, the tattoo's look cool. I gave him kneepads and elbow pads to finish him off properly.

I got Version 1 of Slaughter.

I thought about Legend v Legend Killer, but I hate figures wearing T-Shirts. That's why I had to get Orton in Adrenaline (coz Backlash is also t-shirted).

Can't wait to see the new series figures. They on wrestlingfigs.com? Coz that site never fucking loads for me.

I won a Shelton Benjamin figure for £11 posted on ebay, so I'm happy.

They should make Matt Hardy with a removable material jacket like he has on TV.

Without looking at those figures, I'll get Charlie Haas, Yokozuna, Piper & Duggan.

[Stevie H]

I've seen the figures you said, on WF forum.

Yokozuna - Looks cool, although not sure if he'll look ok when standing up straight.

Roddy Piper - Not bad, but the face seems a bit out.

Tito Santana - Cool face, shame about the red tights.

Jim Duggan - Horrid, the face looks so crap.

Hillbilly - Awesome face scan, kickass material overalls.

Charlie Haas - Not bad, but wish they'd do a new scan.

Jamie Noble - Pretty cool, but now out of date attire.

Shelton Benjamin - Cool figure, although attire is older than the Backlash one.

Matt Hardy - Crappy, why silver pants? I've never seen him have silver pants in that style (he did with like X's on it, but not that pattern).

JBL - Mmmm, the scan is cool (from his APA 2-pack), but what's up with the long tights?

Tajiri - Looks crap, same as RA5 but with green around his mouth. The body looks too big, they should use Rey Mysterio's body.

Here's a pic of my Evolution figures:



I want a new Triple H, with a loose hair scan, not the crappy tied up one (which is only good for figures in suits).

Yep, I used Regal's knee and armpads as well. Shame Jakks don't include kneepads. I was so pissed the CS 2 Flair didn't have kneepads

Stevie said:

Yeah, I hate those figs in shirts as well. Why did they make it a SEMI streetgear figure? For fucks sake.

They should make Matt Hardy with a removable material jacket like he has on TV.

I don't care what the CS figs look like, I buy them 100%. Did the same with RA, but I'm getting pissed off at the bloody repaints.

Stevie said:

I wonder how he will fit in the box

Stevie said:

Big shame. Look for a repaint. At least they didn't make him El Matador. I agree with you on Duggan Hilbilly.

Stevie said:

They'll probably wait for that when he is released with Rico in AD 9

Stevie said:

JBL - Mmmm, the scan is cool (from his APA 2-pack), but what's up with the long tights?

He wrestled 1 time in the long thights since his JBL gimmick. They'll probably release a good one in AD 9 when he comes with Eddie. I hope this one comes with hat, jacket and towel. Imagine if they would release it with a white limo. Now that will OWN!

I also have Evolution posed as a group. I only used the Flair figure in his suit (don't remember which series). I have all the CS figures posed seperately.

True. There is a new one, it comes with an HBK figure (which looks kickass also) with the Hardcore Elimination chamber. It is $65.00 though. Don't wanna pay that for 1 figure

[Stevie H]

Got a link to that Hardcore Elimination Chamber set?

Not like I've got the space for it though, lol. I got 2 full drawers under my bed full of Jakks figs.
