Here are a few more reference photo's. I have a few from the photo shoots for the backing cards. These were taken by a different photographer at a later date (Flair has shorter hair etc, as you've probably noticed on the Galoob cards) I've also got Galoob & Hornby catalogues showing a number of the prototypes from the range which I'll post up at some stage If anyone has more photo's like this, feel free to post them up. Galoobs need more attention! Ric Flair Scott SteinerAttire was amended for the released version but the prototype was produced with the patterned attire.  Rick SteinerLikewise for Rick, the pattern was removed from the released figure. Guessing it was to save a few dollars on production!  Ron SimmonsCool image - shows that the figures were produced using the get up they wore to the studio that day! Strange that nobody at WCW picked up on it. Same attires were applied to both the Galoob and JusToys figures.  Butch ReedSame as above for Ron Simmons - weird they chose to go ahead with these attires.  Ricky Morton & Lex Luger |

That's real interesting. They made him pose specifically and even gave him the same colour pants!

These are great, remember seeing a few on ebay several years ago for different wrestlers.
Would like to see a full collection

would love to see photos of Doom and Zman to see why they choose the outfits they did for those figs.

Every once and a while something gets unearthed on this sight that I believe to be truly historic and awesome. And this is one of them. Can't wait to see the rest.

Flair doesn't look to be doing a very good job of making the same pose in each shot. But interesting to see

looks so funny seeing the wrestlers in the actual clothing their figure is wearing.
As so used to seeing the figure in the attire and not the actual wrestler
