I wish Hogan said he hated those people instead of the blacks

Does it come with Bubba's wife?

Isn't this like $280 tho?

>>6217524
that's for the 12 inch one

>>6217668
Mattel is basically the same AND cheaper
NO THANKS

>>6217531
How much for the 24 inch one? I need those lifelike pythons, brother.

>>6217668
I can tell Storm probably tried really hard and shit on their sculpt, but actually, I think the Mattel sculpt looks more like him.

>>6217685
Hm nah, once we see that articulation then we will judge that

Mattel wrestling figures are mad disappointing

>>6217799
agreed, i've thrown all of mine out except for Paige

>New Hogan merchandise is possible
Oh man, SH Figuarts WWF Hogan PLEASE!

>>6217668
Left looks like a better toy overall, but right looks more like Hogan.

So what did you guys think of the Toyfair reveals?

Found the Mutations Brock Lesnar and I gotta talk a bit about him.

Still getting used to lighting my new setup, so bear with me.

The idea behind the line is, I guess, "gimmick come to life", with Sting as an actual scorpion, John Cena as a literal man made of steel, Finn Balor as a demon and Brock, evidently, as Goro.

Brock is on the "basic" articulation scheme, which means no ab-crunch and a T-crotch. Being an articulation Nazi, this usually bugs the fuck out of me.

However, Brock has two extra arms with full articulation and is almost entirely made of new pieces (the shorts and one set of arms may be old, but I don't know for sure) and they had the foresight to put his lower legs on a swivel/hinge instead of just a hinge, so you can fudge wider-legged stances by rotating the torso.

A torso-hinge would be cool, but I honestly don't even miss it.

Yeah, the new pieces are surprisingly fun. The entire concept is absolutely bonkers, obviously, but I really like it. It's so over the top and reminds me of the, like, Donatello as Dracula TMNT figs.

My only real issue with the articulation is honestly that the feet only bend a few degrees forward. They bend backwards real far, but it's hard to make good crouching stances.

It's not exactly hard to put him in a good, intense pose, though.

And he was $13 at Wal-Mart. Thirteen fucking dollars. If you can even FIND Marvel Universe figures today, they're $13 at half the scale and half the articulation!

I could definitely nitpick stuff like the paint if it was priced like an Elite ($20), but at $13, I can forgive a whole fucking lot. Hooly shit.

Low-key early Toy of the Year contender for me. I haven't had this much fun posing a figure in some time.

Definitely looking out for Balor, too.

>>6220137
Lurker here. I notice your lightbox or setup is using LED bulbs or a strip. You see that wierd strobing effect your getting in your background? You need to adjust your shutter speed to fix that. If your using a phone I recommend finding an app that unlocks your camera settings. Goodluck keep shooting. Unless your using one of those corrugated boards as a backdrop. If so disregard this comment.

>>6220155
Y'know, I've seen this line most of my trips out and, despite initially laughing it off, I've kinda found myself tempted by Bork, Finn, and even BMJ a little. I just don't collect basics, which is almost certainly the base for this line, so I've held off in hopes for some sales or coupons.
The Zombies line looks like total shit to me, though.

>>6219905
Has nothing to do with smarks and everything to do with paying off an almost entirely newly tooled figure

>>6220246
It's actually both! LED bulbs AND a thick piece of corrugated paper! Thanks for the advice, I'll try playing around with the shutter speed and look at the results, though. Just upgraded my camera and I'm still getting used to that, too.

>>6220285
They're over the top enough to be really fun. And yeah, Basic articulation scheme. If you couldn't swivel the lower legs to improve the T-crotch somewhat, it'd lower my opinion a lot. I have no interest in the Sting figure since he can only do awkward Keep On Trucking poses or stand at attention.

Someone might be able to put an Elite Brock's hips and upper legs on him with a little bit of work, but my track record with customizing WWE figures is horrible, so it ain't me.

The Triple H zombie is alright, but not enough for me to spend actual money on it.

>>6220137
oh, so that's why the label changed for the zombies to mutants.

>>6217441
No Gawker tombstone?
No generic Champ belt?

>>6217858

which other mattel figures did you used to have?

>>6217460
This 100%. Fucking fags have been ranting for years that they want more articulation, the finally get it and just because it's not from Mattel they start shitting on it.

>>6217460

Maybe the problem is because you still go to the wfigs boards.

>>6221921
Yeah why go to the board of the store putting this figure out where all the pictures in this thread came from

>>6221943

The main page updates all the time so you don't needlessly have to subject yourself to the inane posting on the message board.

I posted there all the way back from the wrestleworld.com/figurezone.net days to the begining of wfigs, till around 2008 when it became unbearable. I'm speaking from experience.

>>6228695
Have they ever done butterfly shoulders? Basically I am not satisfied with any wrestling toy below the SHF WWE/Kinnikuman standard

Does anyone know when the WWE network spotlights Finn Balor came out? I'd like to grab one. I don't have any wrestling figures anymore so know nothing about them.

I've been casually getting back into wrestling the last few years. I haven't owned a wrestling figure since the rubber guys. I would buy a Broken Matt Hardy figure (if the WWE are allowed to use the gimmick)

>>6245615
Good news for me at least. I'm trying to find a decent one that doesn't have any issues. So far, 2/2 that I've bought have had loose ab crunches. Returned them both and on the hunt I am again.

Should go well with my Mutant Brock

Broken Matt elite when?

>>6257682
he was talking about the (obvious) return of the Hardys at wrestlemania.

I'm not too familiar with wrestling figures since i've been out of the loop since my childhood. But I've always been curious, has there been any good female figures released in recent years?

>>6265635
They're coming out with this big lady soon, Nia Jax.

Some recent ladies figures are Bayley, Lita, and Carmella for the mattel line.

>>6265635
The general female mold is pretty solid in my opinion, though the Elites have accessories and such which often makes them better. Regardless of the line, they can be pretty hard to find, though, and that sucks.
>>6265724
I don't much care for Nia but that looks pretty good, might have to get it if only to have a female heel. Have we gotten a Charlotte Elite yet? If not, why?

>>6267967
not yet for some reason, we already got Bayley, Sasha, Becky Lynch is coming soon.

So many choices for Charlotte though
