 This was my very first wrestling figure. My mom bought it for me at a house show in 1997 when I was 12. I just won it on an auction for $10, 20 years later. The picture isn't the exact figure, but it is in the same condition. I'm just really excited to have my first figure again and wanted to share with you all. What was your first figure? Do you still have it? Have you bought it again years later? Post pictures if you have them. |

My first Jakks figure was a Titan Tron Live Big Show. I don't have it any more, as it was laughably short in scale against other figures compared to how tall he was supposed to be. I don't think I'd buy it again, as there were so many versions afterward, and the R3 tech version was by far, and is still my favorite.  |

This was mine, I still have it somewhere with my old Jakks RAs & DAs:  Coincidentally the last wrestling figure I ever brought was Elite 22 Rock which also has his gold trunks design. |

Love that Bret Hart, it's still top of my want list.
I still remember my brother giving me his two figures as he either didn't want them anymore or thought I'd appreciate them more, he handed me the Hasbro Green trunks Ultimate Warrior first as I recall, and then Jake Roberts so technically it's The Ultimate Warrior.

There are a couple more on the bay right now. |

If I remember right, my first wrestling figures were the old Remco AWA Road Warriors back in the mid 80s, I played with those things until there was hardly any paint left on either of them.....Sure do wish now that I hadn't been 8 years old & ripped the package open 💩

First Jakks figure was the blue attire Warrior. First wrestling figure was either the Remco Road Warriors or LJN Series 1 whichever was released first.

My first figure was a TTL Mankind and Shane McMahon. I ran into then the same night right after No Way Out 2000 and it shifted my interest from Marvel figures to wrestling. The very next day I went back for a HHH, DDP, and the titan tron set.   |

My first wrestling figure came from a yard sale with a bunch of other figures. I wasn't even watching wrestling, this was just a guy to beat up. A few years later when I did care I found out that what I had was a LJN Brutus Beefcake. I wanna get him again along with all the other versions that have been made of him.

I believe my first wrestling figure was a Ruthless Aggression Goldberg wearing a t-shirt. I still have it packed away somewhere.

I remember before I actually became a wrestling fan, having those old WCW figures that didn't have any joints. I had guys like Rick Steiner, Scott Steiner, Sting, Lex Luger etc. After a quick Google search I found out they're called Galoob figures. I had them with the WWF Hasbro ring.
I also happened to have the Jakks mini WrestleMania set that came with Undertaker, Shawn, Bret & Owen Hart, Sid and Vader and those were the ones I remember playing with when I became a fan through my cousins.
I got my first official figures as a wrestling fan for Christmas in 1998, I got the Jakks Raw Is War and Royal Rumble mini figure ring sets. I was a huge fan by that point and watched so many tapes with my cousins and played War Zone all the time. I remember being so d\mn excited to get the Raw set, it had Austin, Ahmed Johson, Triple H, Faarooq, Mankind and Goldust. I'd been counting down the days to that Christmas for about 2 monthx solid, if not more haha, it felt like a dream when it finally came and I finally got to open it up and play with it.
I got my first BCA figures in mid 1999, I went to town with my parents and I was treated to 3 figures. I picked a BCA Rock figure that came with a door, Triple H in purple that came with a supersoaker and Al Snow that came with Head and a bar stool.
Just writing about this brings back so many fond memories, I could write a full blog on it!
