I have the DDP / Raven set. DDP is missing one of the magnets in his and now though. They were great though!

Bret/Luger is a tough find. Bret/Sting is a Thunderslam set which looks very similar.

I remember when these came out as a kid and I did not like how they looked but then I ended up getting a pack and loved them! DDP and Raven were the first set I got. I also had the Bagwell/Sting and Steiners. I can't remember having any others, But I do remember always wanting the Jericho/Malenko set but never getting it.

I remember when these came out..I got the Hogan and Goldberg set just for the World Heavyweight Belt..For being crappy figures some of the detail on them is pretty good,like Hogans tights. etc. And some of the head sculpts are pretty good.

These were great when they were first released. Liked them a lot.
Btw I still have an entire set of series 2 testshots of these.

I never felt any interest in "gimmicky" figure lines. even as a kid, I always just wanted well articulated, poseable and realistic figures. wasn't interested in action features. i do remember seeing these though, and i also remember them clogging pegs.
at the time i remember feeling disappointed/frustrated that they didn't make a Malenko, Jericho or Rick Steiner in the regular figure style. of course I now know that actually they did (in the Ring Masters series and Horsemen boxed set respectively). but at the time I didn't know, since I never saw or even heard of the Ring Masters series or the Horsemen boxed set until I joined WF.
around 2001/2002 i did actually buy the Hogan/Goldberg set from spam though, just because i wanted the belt. (then of course Jakks made an amazing big gold belt in the WrestleMania X-8 (r3) series which made the toybiz belt irrelevant IMO). since buying the set though, i must admit, I do like the goldberg headsculpt. much better than the (awful) Smash n Slam headsculpt, or the (mediocre) Slam n Crunch headsculpt, or the bizarre smirking CS25 goldberg (smirking??? goldberg?? really Jakks?? WHYYY....). i also really like the hogan skintone on the grip n flip figure. i guess thats a pretty weird thing to notice on a figure. but I do honestly think the hogan skintone is a really good color for that period of his career, and i like it better than any skintone jakks ever gave Hogan figures, or the colors used on his other toybiz figures. whenever i get round to doing a Hollywood Hogan custom I'm gonna pull out the grip n flip hogan to match the skintone for sure.

With the exception of the Nash/Konnan set I have them all someplace. Although I think I used some of the heads on customs over the years

I've got DDP/Raven and Goldberg/Hogan loose. Weird idea for figures, but pretty cool

I remember those!! I still have Raven, and I think my little brother ended up with my Sting and Jericho ones. Don't know what happened to the rest.
I really liked 'em when they first came out, and then got bored with them as soon as I got them

I remember getting the Steiners 2 pack back in Christmas 2000 and thinking 'wow these are weird'. I played with them often but Rick constantly jobbed in my fed and Scott rarely wrestled due to wellness test failures.
Looking at them now I REALLY WANT Hart/Luger and Jericho/Malenko just to display MOC.

The glue used to hold the magnets in suuucked.
Oh well, the flannel shirt looks kickass on Bruisers Raven.
