I'm looking for pictures of all of the WCW figure rings released, loose, preferably with some Mattels to show the scale. I know it's sort of a broad request, but I'm looking for everything from OSFTM to the basic NITRO ring and the repaints and of course the NITRO arena.
Sorry for the lame post, thanks in advance for any help.

just do a quick Google image search Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? What's Google image search? I typed in "image" in the Google search box but nothing happened. Well, no WCW rings with Mattel figures in them popped up. No good pictures of the Monday Nitro Arena popped up... Hmmm, didn't see the OSFTM rings anywhere either. You sure I just have to type "image" in if I'd like to see the Galoob ring? Heck, I can't even get any non stock Bash at the Beach ring pics when I type in "image"... I must be doing something wrong! |

Many people probably threw their WCW rings away or gave them to charity. That's why there probably isn't any comparo images |

I still have the WCW Nitro Arena and the ECW OSFTM ring (used the same base as the WCW ring).
I'll try to post some pics with Mattel's in them later tonight.

Why would you even waste your time posting this? because he's a dolt who posts constantly without any idea of what he's talking about at all. One of the few people I've ignored on here, because he's so irrelevant. The OSFTM and Galoob rings will be way too small for Mattel scale. The OSFTM rings were too small for even OSFTM figures, which are about an inch shorter than Mattel (but often times much thicker). I remember my friend had a WCW OSFTM ring from 1995 and we both hated it because it was so small. The Nitro Arena ring may be somewhat closer to scale, but it's a very small ring. It's scaled, but small scaled. Even the Toybiz figures couldn't do a vertical suplex without hitting the ropes and they're smaller than Mattel. I unfortunately can't provide any photos because most of my toys are long gone and I infact only have 2 Mattel figures anyways. |

There's definitely pictures of most of the rings on this board, and definitely pics of Mattel figures in them. I found them through both google and the board's search function.

I've never seen a galoob or the San Fran rings before. Only seen the San Francisco toys ring with the red cage on the figure cards. Does anybody have that?

As promised, here are some pics of the WCW Nitro Arena and OSFTM rings with Mattel WWE figs. A couple notes on the Nitro Arena: Yes, I modified the ring to remove/cover up the action features and turn it into a more basic ring, however the ring base and turnbuckles/posts are the real ones. I only covered the base and furnished new ropes because I've lost the old ones somewhere. I also had trouble locating the original connectors for some of the scaffolding, so I have them held up with a little tape to allow you to still see how it looks size wise. Full arena shot:  Shot showing the height of the scaffold above the ring:  The entrance stage/ramp:  Height of the ring apron:  Height of the turnbuckles/posts:  Size of the ring side to side:  Size of the ring corner to corner:  Now onto the OSFTM ring. I used the ECW ring here, as the base of the ring is exactly the same as the one used for the WCW ring with a red cage. I do believe the turnbuckles are smaller on the WCW ring and the ropes were not removable. That is the only real difference besides colors. Again, replacement ropes, everything else is original. Fig standing in the ring:  Height of the ring:  Height of the ropes/buckles:  Size of the ring side to side:  Size of the ring corner to corner:  Height of the cage wall (again, same mold as the red WCW cage):  Cage fully assembled:  Hope I have helped you out. In all honesty, I really like the Nitro arena for Mattel figs, especially for display, but it isn't bad either for posing/playing if you don't mind or want a smaller size ring that is still bigger (I think) than the Mattel basic rings. |
