Hey guys, Just wanted to make a quick post here showing my latest WWF LJN MOC figure in my collection, the one and only, "Mean" Gene Okerlund. I won him off eBay about 2 weeks ago and it just arrived today in the mail. I did have him years ago MOC and ended up selling him off because I needed the money at the time and ended up regretting that decision. So, once I saw him again for a decent price on eBay, I had to get him for my collection. He's got a few minor dings in the bubble and some creasing to the card, but I really don't mind that. As long as the bubble isn't lifting or has been re-glued down, I'm not too picky when it comes to the overall condition of these old-school MOC WWF LJN figures. I mean, come on. They are like 27 years old, so you can't expect them to be in perfect shape after that long and I certainly don't. I'm just glad I can afford these MOC LJN's and add them to my collection.

I always loved the Mean Gene figure.

Hasbro should have put out a Mean Gene figure

Very cool. I'm glad Todd Pettengill wasn't around yet to get an LJN made of him.

We didn't get Sean Mooney, Gorilla, or Lord Alfred Hayes, I doubt we'd have gotten a Pettengill.

Never noticed the points on the back of the card before. There's the rumor that the Hasbro points would have led you to get a mail-away Shawn or Razor. I wonder what the LJN points were intended for?

Absolutely nothing. Same as the Hasbro points, ultimately. Rumors be darned.

Hasbro should have put out a Mean Gene figure as well as a Bobby Hennan, Mr. Fuji, Sensational Sherri Jimmy Hart etc....sadly Hasbro never had a plan to make any managers, announcers, valets-or even any female wrestlers of the time....
