I found all of these months ago, before Christmas, but they should NOT be being sold in Poundlands anymore. Poundland recalled all of them, because the silver paint on the accessories (bugs/snakes/ladders etc.) was fatal if enhaled or ingested. Look online and you will see. It applies to all wrestling figures imported through the Fun-Tastic company for Poundland.
I would take it back if I were you. I did and they gave me a refund, even without a receipt, because they have appealed for these dangerous toys to be returned, and not only in the UK.

I already bought a batch of these, and the accessories were silver bugs. I like to chew specific bootlegs. Uh oh.  |

If you keep it MOC then you are fine, if on the other hand you sniff or eat your bootlegs then you are in trouble. They make it seem worse so we dont take the risk |

I thought it couldn't have been Poundland since Poundland recalled them all. In that case, someone should tell Fabulous 99s that they're selling an illegal product, lol. |

lucha fuerte is not a bootleg, its an argentinian tv show about wrestling, your figure is from the mid to late 80s, where did you get it???

Here is a random and pretty bad bootleg for you: yeah, that's not a bootleg. its an official fig from the wrestling promotion, Lucha Fuerte. there is a thread about those figs, with pics of every fig in the series. |

Actually it is a bootleg, because the mold used for that figure is a Mattel He-man body. The helmet looks to be from a ram-man figure as well.

The helmet looks to be from a ram-man figure as well. the company that produced that figure and the other official Lucha Fuerte figs is Plastirama. Plastirama legally purchased molds from Hasbro, Mattel, and Remco for their toys. hence why the same company produced G.I. Joe figures in Argentina as well. also different companies can use the same molds for figures. Toybiz and Hasbro each use the same molds for Marvel Legends. the Hasbro Marvel Legends figures arent bootleg. they are official. Lucha Fuerte hired Plastirama to make them official figs. like how WWE hired Jakks to make their figs, and TNA/toybiz, etc. etc. etc. a bootleg is an unlicensed figure made by a company that doesnt produce the original merchandise and doesnt give anything to the original producer. so once again, no that figure is official, not bootleg. |
