Not forgetting my wrestling figurines. There are my chibi Kenny Omega & Jushin Thunder Liger sofubi. Jushin Thunder Liger and Kenny Omega (IWGP United States Heavyweight champion) were both sculpted by athlete figure sculpting legend HAO, 16 directions offers the fifth figure in the soft vinyl figure collection!
Look at the sergeant when he's talking to you. Sgt Slaughter in the embodiment of gungho-ness and patriotism during WWF era until he turned heel. He is also the only WWF character that cross over to G.I.Joe cartoon the true American heroes. Full metal jacket style in typical military attire. Wearing his instructor hat, sun shades, singlet, second generation camouflage pants and army boots. Both arms can be lifted up and swing down upon release. One pointing hand and another clenching hand.
The Demon.. The Prince.. Fin Balor... I don't have a huge wrestle figures collection however this Loot Crate Finn Balor 02.02 WWE figure with partial ring exclusive certainly tempted me. This is WWE Slam Stars Series 2 releases focusing on the greatest impression left by renowned wrestlers such as Finn Balor, who already builded his fame in "New Japan Pro-Wrestling" before making his way to WWE.
The back of the box has got this printed... Designed by Brian Baity of The Creation Crib, the second series features current WWE Superstars who made an immediate impact when they debuted and get the crowd going every time they enter an arena.
The figure stands approximately 4.5" and comes with partial wrestling ring. I believed having 4 sets will be able to form an entire wrestling ring. The head dressing can be removed, how cool is that! Fin Balor is super talented and the mask paint definitely leave a great impression. Not forget his mesmerising entrance song. So honoured to see him performed in Singapore some years back.
Enjoy the atmosphere and feeling the energy of WWE universe within Singapore Indoor Stadium! Desmond was unable to join me this year so I roped in wifee for the 1...2...3 count down to one fall, though she probably knows only classic wrestlers and of course Y2J, who first came into the ring. Well, she easily connects quickly relates Seth Rollins to Desmond who had named his son 'Seth'. A lot more WWE Superstars were presented this year.
Proud to put on my vintage Heartbreak Kid HBK tee, bringing the memories and emotions of wrestling in the good old days. WWE still charmed me a lot and nothing beats being in the crowd cheering and booing. 'The Miz' was so chicken till the crowd started calling him 'KFC' aka Kentucky Fried Chicken. Not forgetting a special moment of switching on torch light of my phone during Bray Wyatt's entrance. Certainly dreaming of choke slamming people in my dreams. Lolz
What an awesome night for me at Singapore Sports Hub with the company of WWE Universal! I missed the last time WWE Live in Singapore back in 2008 which I regretted a lot not been able to see Shawn Michael wrestled live in Singapore shortly before his retirement. It was a long wait for me and today happened to be redemption day. Thank you Desmond for asking me along and helping me buy the ticket. For that, I forgive you for suggesting that we wear WWE theme attire which ended up you not wearing yours and me wearing my old-school Hulk Hogan rip-off shirt. Lol....
A full capacity crowd filled with WWE atmosphere, super charged energy and positivity. Though I chanted "New Day Suck" but believed me, deep down I love you guys for pouring the fun and drama! Emotions were overflowing when the show kickstarted with the humble, highflying 'Neville' which I'm convinced that gravity had forgotten you with my own eyes. The Singapore Street Fight match between Dolph Ziggler and Corporate Kane was really entertaining with table and chair. Main event - John Cena and Kevin Owen Champion vs Champion. I'm a supporter of John Cena ... I was chanting "Let's go Cena" and the guy beside me shouted "Cena Sucks", nonetheless at the end of the day, we shook hands, cheered and took pic together! Awesome!
Everything is cool when you have RVD!!! In my opinion, RVD possessed the most unorthodox fighting style, striking opponents at all edges from almost every muscles of his body. Those swift daring high flying maneuvers from top ropes had earned many respects and what he had been known undisputedly as 'Mr Monday Night'.
This is my third WWE figures still in the collection as I had let go the rest, keeping only those in my personal wrestling hall of frame. The top spot is none other than Hulk Hogan and second spot reserved by Shawn Michael. A treatment of immortality introducing wrestling memorabilia indeed.
From Ruthless Aggression Series 21 by Jakks Pacific in 2006 and stand approximately 8". Relatively close resemblance to the actual person, nice articulation and fully poseable to RVD's signature pose. Quite proportional body size, nice paint job especially on the trunks like the yin yang symbol. He's wearing the same attire as his WWF debut figure. No accessory included (The champion belt was loaned from Hogan).... Hee hee...
