*STICKY* The Product Forum's Official Action Figure Display Contest Month of May

[FEAR THE BAT]

So test was rehired and then later released, while ECW originals who could actually wrestle without the use of steroids were given maybe 2 minutes on TV.

WWE and Hasbro...they are on some great crack.

Its just dumb. But apparently the rumor is Sabu is gonna resurface in TNA.

 

[Assassin]

True, but I don't think they are in production just yet. Its still a definite possibility for her to be released but as of now its up in the air. WWE has the last say, not Jakks.

OK, now onto the RVD. The link below is were you can get it (if it hasn't sold out yet). This in a badass RVD thats very similar to the look of the ECW RVD. Anyway, here's the link to order him off TRU.com:

Anyway, just from looking at the TRU.com page it seems pretty much like regular ECW RVD. Even says it comes with an ECW title. But why was it $15 and now on sale for $12??? Well, if you want the answer just check out the pics at this link at wfigs.com of how it REALLY looks and what it REALLY comes with.

A) I have one and another on the way to open.

B) Nobody knew about until about 2 weeks ago when the first one shipped. Also people were thinking it was TRU trying to get over on retailers by charging more for the ECW RVD when in fact it ended up being this exclusive.

C) Yes. I have my first MOC and the second is enroute. It has both belts and they're painted. The ECW RVD has the ECW title aswell but it only has the red letters that saw "HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION". The TRU exclusive RVD's ECW belt has more colors painted. It has the cloth ECW shirt and a briefcase (that he got from the MITB match he won) plus he has plack taped hands were the ECW RVD has white taped hands. And the ECW RVD doesn't have the airbrushed stubble beard, the TRU RVD does. Worth every penny.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

BTW, I have an extra RA Cena up for grabs if you're interested now that you won't need to buy one with a spinner belt.


Yes, I am the man.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

BREAKING NEWS!!!!

Bobby Lashley in now you're NEW ECW CHAMP!!!!

Here's a link to mine with some other figs I had picked up recently:

You want the RA Cena I have for grabs??

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Santo, here's a pic I took of DA Benoit (newer) with DA Sabu. They have the same smaller set of arms.

 

[Saint553]

How's that ring?

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

How's that ring?

Its OK. It looks cool but the loops that hold the buckles in place feel flimsy.

 

[Saint553]

I'm still trying to figure out how to add proper ropes to my steel ring. There's a plumbing puddy that hardens like cement that I may use to attach loops to put ropes through, but the bolts I use for ring posts are a weird sort of steel that really only attaches to stuff with a welder.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Why not have the ropes go through loops of either string or maybe small rubberbands??

 

[Saint553]

BREAKING NEWS!!!!

Bobby Lashley in now you're NEW ECW CHAMP!!!!

Why do they even keep that name? I don't get it. Lashley wrestles more on Raw anyways. ECW isn't even extreme! It's got wanna be strippers and...generic wrestlers.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

And your teacher, Matt Striker.

 

[Saint553]

Why not have the ropes go through loops of either string or maybe small rubberbands??

It's just a matter of keeping the loop on the post. I could easily loop rubber bands and such around 'em and put the strings through the rubber bands, but I have to wonder how long the bands will stay.

Use a few. Maybe 2-3 rubberbands per rope per post. So 9 bands used per post to hold the 3 ropes. Then tie string around the bands at the point where the rope and post meet to hold it steady.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

edit

 

[Saint553]

I just gotta find good rubber bands. Heavy duty ones.

Just hit up a hardware store or an automotive store.

 

[Saint553]

I also gotta improve the padding. I got more for that. But dropping a fig onto that ring sounds damn hard.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yeah, it'd be a good idea to add alittle more padding before a arm or leg pops off.

 

[Saint553]

you got tables, ladders, chairs, etc?

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Me?? Hell yeah. About 5 tables, 4 ladders and maybe 5-7 chairs.

 

[Saint553]

Why ain't you using 'em???

BTW, check your PM in a few minutes.

 

[Saint553]

Nevermind, don't check 'em. Forgot what I was going to say.

But I want to see that WWE scale ring put to use with some TLC!!
