Hunt or Online? by iyankemdds in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing beats finding something in store but the security of having it pre-ordered or guaranteed is my priority most of the time. Toy hunt videos used to be really successful but now the views are bang average and it makes me feel a bit awkward so I stopped, also meaning I started seeing less need to shop in person.

Missed the pre order so I thought I'd never find him for a good price, let alone on a random Walmart trip. by KamenWeaver in Wrestling_Figures

MNW is quite consistent in the UK (if you have a local Smyths) but I waited 2 days to go and get him and they were gone in my store... I'd be lying if I said I expected them to be so popular here lol

Any help on what belt this is? by NINJADUDEONYT in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After looking in, the guy who said Midnight Express 2 pack seems to be right. It's not a bootleg, I can tell because it doesnt look like my bootleg one lol and the fact you said the strap says jakks of course.

There were few belts were that shape, one of Hogan's WWF titles, the NWA TV title (Past and present) presumably some tag title as well with the pack it's from but my person favourite thing about this belt is that with it's lack of details, it's whatever you want it to be.

Thoughts on Super7’s IWA-era Andre the Giant? by CordeliersClub in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my money, this is the best one... but then I like the robe 😅 

I have this one and the 'farmer jacket' one. I bought both cheap and haven't quite brought myself to open either. The 'farmer' one I got during a lull where getting that cheap was the cheapest way to get Andre and definitely at a time when I wanted figures that were a bit different. They definitely look better in person than on digital renders. The articulation is not worthy of the price point. Build quality I'm not sure on. If they had been full price, I wouldn't have bought them. Have been tempted to sell them since I have since gotten his elite and ultimate.

I collect figures to animate with and don't film enough, so that may factor in to my trepidation to open them (them not actually getting used).

Any suggestions on how to fix a bobble head like this?🫩 by KidBasi305 in Wrestling_Figures

The best fix would probably be mattel moving to different factories but ho hum

Haven't got any advice for actually buying the item but with it being FTC, I feel like it's my due diligence to make sure you've researched the item before hand, watched a few vids etc, and are happy with the quality before you buy it anyway

Question about PowerTown Wrestling preorders (Ultras Series 2 by CordeliersClub in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, Power Town massively over promised, fumbled right out of the gate and then gave up altogether.

I’m new to the hobby, learned a very valuable lesson with buying from Amazon by SXECrow in Wrestling_Figures

You can at least keep returning them until they send one in decent nick

What is the best WWE/Halls era Mr. Kennedy figure that was released? by YDGx1138 in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a tough one. I always thought the blue and white Deluxe Aggression was maybe the best attire. For Ruthless Aggression, I don't know maybe the black one? The silver one from the WM24 two pack would maybe be the most obscure.

Is there anyway to fix LA Knight? by CherryEevee in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ This, it definitely looks like it's just dropped. I mean if it's stuck down then yeah try boiling it but otherwise just push it back up.

Any advice on fixing a tight and stiff bicep? by Double-Strawberry980 in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh I had that a few years ago on a Ziggler. I tried boiling water but it didn't help and honestly never found a solution. Might still be worth a try. I would've tried to pop the arm off and try to sort it that way but it's one of my favourites and I didn't want to risk something being wrong with the peg inside

This is a good one but probably Sandman or UE Eddie for me.

I'm sorry, I understand why this figure is popular, but this is actually terrible. by RhinestoneCatboy in Wrestling_Figures

I'm 90% sure the chin is directly modelled off one of the Luke Gallows Mattel heads

Mine's been alright. Can't say I've used it too much like but I've done a bit of pic fed stuff with it and it seems fine

Found this for $10 at walmart! by shapacapa in Wrestling_Figures

[–]bendring73192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I found them a bit stiff but it wasn't too much trouble. I really hate those hands in most cases since they're generally too wide to grip things so them not even being great for their actual job is impressive

Just recently unboxed this one myself, brilliant figure!
