I believe I read there is no white hairclip on the funskool one.

Hi New to the forum. I collect Funskool Hasbro. Can you please help me identify a funskool Yokozuna from a normal one? Thanks. Since you already collect Funskools, you know the paintscheme is darker, the packaging flimsy and the figures itself brittle. What are funskool hasbros? Are they official and much different to the regular figures? Funskool was a company from India, allowed to produce Hasbro figures for India; mainly GI Joe and WWF. The plastic used for these figures is of inferior quality, the paintschemes usually are a shade darker and the packaging itself is very flimsy and often very creased and battered. Known WWF figures (common to rare): "Million dollar man" Ted Dibiase 1 (belt looks reddish bronze), Demolition Smash, Ultimate Warrior 2, Roddy Piper, "The narcissist" Lex Luger, Razor Ramon (black/red, necklace looks reddish bronze), Mr Perfect 1, "Macho man" Randy Savage 4, Yokozuna 1. |

I believe there is an Undertaker 2 as well. I was unaware Ultimate Warrior 2 was common, who has one? |

The funskool Yokozuna doesn't have a white clip on the back of his head (to tie up his long hair) the normal Hasbro release - Yoko did indeed have a white clip. the only difference is the hair clip. |

Yes, Ultimate Warrior is definitely nowhere near common. The Piper, Smash and Million Dollar Man are the more commonly available with perhaps Razor scraping in after them. Luger doesn't seem to come up that often either and the others listed are pretty bloody rare.

Were these the ONLY ones released, or the only ones known in this day & age to have been released? Seems an odd assortment.

I believe they just happen to be the ones that have surfaced. On the back of some of the boxes it also shows the Nasty Boys, LOD, Rocker Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart and Hulk #2 which I think only further adds to the oddness of the assortment.

Intrestling, that Yokozuna in the comparison pic looks of the same quality of the Hasbro, but with faded head, plus no white paint on the hair tie.

I had a few I got from figs inc. years ago when I wasn't sure what they were. I thought they were garbage, I know I had Razor, Smash, and Luger. Maybe another or 2, they're probably laying in a box of junk someplace around here.
