yeh I remember these, pretty sure some or all of them were sculpted by self-proclaimed customizing god and former WF user baity. they're mostly only average pieces though in my opinion.

I remember these! They are pretty cool little figurines. I wouldn't call them figures more like statuettes.

i remember seeing these in some pictures in a wwe magazine long ago and really wanting them but never got around to it since i coudn't find any...even now i seldom see them and i spend quite some time on ebay looking through rare wrestling items when i'm bored or have some time to kill. however looking back now,some of them don't look that good,i might get a few someday but i'm still waiting for the day some proper wrestling statues get releases...always baffled me why wwe hasn't taken more shots at creating collector statues for the adult collector market. look at how many comic book statues there are and how popular they are, if it's nice,it sells. wrestlers might look kinda bland these days but even if wwe sticks with old school wrestlers, they have and endless list of oppertunity's, i can very easily imagine some kick a$$ statues of guys like jake the snake, hitman, old hbk, masked kane, not to mention the seemingly endless possibilities for undertaker statues in all his diffrent clothing and looks through the years, he's basicly like wwe's Batman, if they can make 100 diffrent batman statues they can make 100 undertaker statues as well imho....with hat,no hat, ministry gear, debut gear, current gear, kneeling position with urn, withouth urn, sitting on tombstone, riding horse....c'mon, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to be creative with it. i have a few old wcw porcelain statues, from nash and goldberg, that are still some of my favorite pieces in my collection, even tho the detail isn't that great, they just look so bad a$$ and always draw attention form non fans that visit, and we're talking about goldberg for crying out loud...the most bland getup ever with just simple black boots and trunks, and even that statue is impressive so wwe, c'mon... just for laughs, how about a limited edition chrome plated (or whatever it's called) Goldust ! ( like they made that shiny plated iron man statue) i'd get it I really liked the UMF line, so far it was the closest thing to my vision, only it was still just plastic and some of the faces were a bit off, i'd just like a real pro statues company to get behind it, like bowen designs or other companys that work with marvel/dc comics.

Those look kinda cool, who made those? I don't ever recall hearing of those til just now. I still have the HBK on display in my room (no longer have the box it came in though.) On the base there are a couple of logos which show that the main companies involved were "First 4 Figures" and "Puzzle Productions." I bought mine from a local wrestling store for £14.99. I forget the year but it was probably 06/07ish.
