So, after having purchased a few of the WCW OSFTM 4.5 inch figures, I decided to get a ring. I didn't like the one they made for them, so I went ahead and bought one of the Toybiz rings thinking it'd be close to scale. I was wrong. Although it was to scale with the Dollar Tree cheap ass CMLL bootleg figures. I knew the base was the same as the WWF LJN Bendies ring, which I recently came up on: forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/323744/wwf-ljn-bendies-ringAnd sure enough the posts fit the ring making it a bit more to scale with these WCW OSFTM figures. Although the posts were a bit wobbly once you fit them in the slots. Here are some pics with the cage. Now I kinda want to buy an extra set of WWF LJN Bendies ring posts just to use for this ring considering I have no WCW Toybiz figures. Maybe. Someday.

Do you know how many of those WCW 4.5 inch figs there were? I would love to add those to my Hasbro collection!

It doesn't look all that bad, it's just a bit off nothing like the Monster Ring and BCA's though, that height difference was way off.
If you do permanently modify it someday, I wouldn't mind have those red turnbuckles if you are going to discard them.

There were also figures of Savage (Wolfpack and NWO but you had to buy a ring to get the red one), Goldberg, Scott Steiner and The Giant. The ring would have worked better with the 6" versions of the figures.

@corey Jacobs. I will let you know if I decide to permanently modify it and get rid of the posts/turnbuckles. aaron34 Check out the stickied post on the Other Brands forum that says the Complete History of WCW OSFTM or something like that. You'll see the entire line of those WCW 4.5 inche figures like figurecollectorlisted, those were the only other ones they released that I've yet to get myself. I also want the belt that came with Hogan. I hate that it came with "nWo" spray painted on it, but it's that actual belt that's to scale for these figures. I just got that WCW belt the Flair in the picture is holding this weekend at Frank & Son Collectible Show in City of Industry, CA for $2! I knew it'd be too big but I couldn't pass up getting that belt at that price. I love those all rubber/plastic belts (or whatever they're made of).

My photos are on page 3 of that thread and while I have had some additions, I have not added to it as I should have. I may have to revise it and get it updated. I have a ton of items up for sale if you are looking (shameless plug).

Get some red ropes on there or all black and it'll be perfect. I always liked those figures as a kid. The Kmart packs for $2.99-3.99 with the stickers included were the best!
