it was pulled off the shelves shortly after he left the wwf, right after series 2. 5 years ago a loose dusty could fetch $50. Now its 20-25 mint. MOC its worth a lot more since most were opened. Same thing with the warrior 3 us/english card, was pulled off shelves after he was fired. Warrior 3 might be rarer to find MOC(production run wise), but since it was also on foreign cards, its a lot more common loose. $2-5. 150-250 MOC. what you have MOC is impressive, willing to part with one? PM me please thanks BK Anyone seen the french/Canadian Dusty? I NEVER knew it existed, i thought it was only english/us!

I never saw a Dusty on sale in the UK and bought all the series 2 when they were in all the stores at the time...the only reason I have a Dusty is my friends Dad worked in the US and had got it for him. I managed to buy it from him for about £3 when he lost interest.

The canadian card dusty does exsist. It is basically french writing and english writing on the card. I suppose its due to canada having a duel language of french and english, that go's back to the british empire and the french having settlements there also.
The other languages I have seen is, spanish, french, Italian, Indian, Chinese and if you would class it argentinian cards. I'm sure there is rarer stuff out there.

Dusty was never available in the uk, im so suprised he was on a french card alone, im sure it must be a canadian as they have bilingual text usually.

I remember Dusty was a MAJOR pegwarmer back when I was a kid. Who woulda thought that would be one of the most sought after figures....?

I was always really confused at not being able to get Dusty as a kid.......everyone else was in my local Toymaster in abundance but nary a Dusty......of course now I know why.
when I was recollecting Hasbros back in 07 getting Dusty(and a few others)was pretty special because I never had him as a kid.

Yeah, i wonder how rare that french canadian dusty is!? I have been into hasbro's for a long time, and i have only seen it once moc. Usually on ebay its either the regular us or the summer slam card. I would love to see a pic again. i searched the boards last night for 2 hours starting at page 79. I don't think i saw it on here. bk

I remember Dusty was a MAJOR pegwarmer back when I was a kid. Who woulda thought that would be one of the most sought after figures....? Me too! Summerslam Beefcakes and Dustys, along with Bushwhackers and Rockers clogged the shelves of my KB Toys for what seemed like years and what was probably actually a full year. Who knew! Side note: Anyone else notice that Randy Savage is usually the motion card packed with Dusty Rhodes? Was that done on purpose? As a kid, I was REALLY confused when I tore open my Dusty to find a Randy Savage card! It's not that I wanted a Dusty card, it was just so hard to fathom Dusty's heated rival getting his trading card in Dusty's packing. How dastardly!

How dastardly! my dustys got the savage card too, perhaps most of them have, a hype for their match.
