Not everything COVID brought us was bad.
This is a classic example of Chain Reaction Collecting. I got Alex Reynolds, essentially completing my in-ring Dark Order. But then I remembered I didn’t have a Brodie Lee. I didn’t have a Brodie Lee because, well, I was never a huge fan of Brodie Lee the wrestler. By all accounts a good guy but he wasn’t my thing in the ring. And I was very turned off at the way his figures and merch were marketed after his untimely death, so I passed.
But there is one version of Brodie Lee that I loved, and they made, and I never got. And that’s Pandemic Era Backstage Being The Elite Sketch Brodie Lee, the Leader Of The Funny Dark Order Brodie Lee. And so I needed him. And so I put a search on eBay and so one came up for less than list price shipped and so I got him and so I made this picture.
It does the job. It has the red suit. It has papers to throw. It has a head. It also comes with Another Damn Microphone and Another Damn TNT Championship, although I need to look and see if it’s a dupe because the TNT belt kept changing straps.
This is a classic Jacksonville backstage moment. We will not discuss the amount of effort I went through to create the empty booth.
Also, in other chain reaction news, John Silver’s right fucking leg snapped off at the hip when I went to make him sit down, so a replacement for HIM was procured cheap from eBay as well and he’ll be here soon. What you’re seeing here is pure unmitigated poster tac that I either edited out or, more likely, forgot to edit out and tucked under the table edge.
