amazing! I looked at Haku, Rougeaus, Bravo and saw the smaller pictures of a few more but can't wait to look at them all in greater detail.

They are pretty neat, shame that Hasbro can't do a retro line due to licensing rights.

The likeness on the fan made cards is amazing. Those type of cards would've been a nice addition the the hasbro packages. Most of the wrestlers were in big storylines around 1989 and early 1990 with the exception of Widow Maker but they weren't major stars. The 1990 series, like 1984 and LJN featured the most main event stars. By 1991 most of them were long gone like Garvin, Rooster, Widow Maker, Rougeaus, Busters, and Powers of Pain were split. Tito, Bravo, Hercules or Bad News Brown could've made 1991. Haku could've been changed to all purple and no signs of being King attire if Hasbro made him. Bodyguard Virgil probably wouldn't have been released but Harts could've made it to 1991 and 1992.
I like the detail on Roddy Piper were the kneepads were blue as Piper wore. Both LJN and Hasbro gave Piper red kneepads. I love the little extra details on the Hasbro type drawings like Hammer with the brace, Luke with tattos, Demolition with wrist tape, Rhodes with kneepads polka dots.
Being long gone from the WWF (like Warlord, Dragon, Anvil) never stopped hasbro from releasing figures so it shouldn't have stopped them but both Hasbro and LJN in their beginings seemed to start small and end with a lot of figures in the series.
I think 1990 could've seen 22 figures like the 1993 year. It could've been the original 12 plus Powers of Pain (14), Hart Foundation (16), Rougeau Brothers (18) for a great lot of tag teams as well as Tito (19), Haku (20), Bad News Brown (21) and Rooster (22).

Thanks ICHIBAN for posting within the thread - I was hoping we could get all of them in here but yes they are cool. Is the artist not a member on here? He should be!!
