This is somewhat related to the post in regards to figures for audience/crowd in the arena. I was wondering if anyone uses any non-WWE Mattel figures as enhancement talent/jobbers for their fig federations? Jakks was easier as they made many Classic guys from the 80's that made excellent looking jobbers for the current stars (Johnny Rodz, Gorilla Monsoon in wrestling attire, Jay Strongbow, Brooklyn Brawler, Killer Kowalski, Jimmy Valiant, Ernie Ladd, Bob Backlund, Rocky Johnson, Tony Atlas, Ivan Putski & Andy Kaufman, etc). There are only so many matches that Curt Hawkins, Zack Ryder, Rhyno, Heath Slater, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel and The Ascension can lose. Every once in a while, I bring Alex Riley & Trent Barreta back to put others over. I've even used some Star Wars Black Series & Marvel guys as jobbers (the scale is a little off on those figures though, too small compared to WWE). What non-WWE figures do you guys use as jobbers, if any?

For me it was always the dollar store wrestling figures fitting that role. That was always the first thing I had in mind when I bought them aside from maybe creating my own federation with unique characters or building up my own new wrestling characters for the roster with a few of them lol.

How many squash matches does one need?
Also, if marvel figures are too small, you've clearly never had Roman go over on hulkbuster.

I think a generic line of wrestlers and behind the scenes guys would be great.

I remember putting an old smiling Jack Swagger head onto a basic Morrison body (from the Survivor Series set) and calling him Joe Ber. Even got an upset victory over Edge once.

Just a thought, you could buy some custom masks etc on eBay and dress up some random Mattel figures to use them as jobbers.

To each their own as who is a “jobber” in their feds
I squash guys like john cena and roman reigns all the time to put a guy like MVP or John Morrison over because they are some of my favorites
Those CAW figures seem pretty good too though

I use a Honky Tonk Man basic as my jobber, I have no other use for him outside of an authority figure and that's already being taken up by HHH, Shane, and Christian.

This is somewhat related to the post in regards to figures for audience/crowd in the arena. I was wondering if anyone uses any non-WWE Mattel figures as enhancement talent/jobbers for their fig federations? Jakks was easier as they made many Classic guys from the 80's that made excellent looking jobbers for the current stars (Johnny Rodz, Gorilla Monsoon in wrestling attire, Jay Strongbow, Brooklyn Brawler, Killer Kowalski, Jimmy Valiant, Ernie Ladd, Bob Backlund, Rocky Johnson, Tony Atlas, Ivan Putski & Andy Kaufman, etc). There are only so many matches that Curt Hawkins, Zack Ryder, Rhyno, Heath Slater, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel and The Ascension can lose. Every once in a while, I bring Alex Riley & Trent Barreta back to put others over. I've even used some Star Wars Black Series & Marvel guys as jobbers (the scale is a little off on those figures though, too small compared to WWE). What non-WWE figures do you guys use as jobbers, if any? The Sandows, Tensais and Rybacks etc figs could easily fill the jobber role in any fed |
