Curious if anyone has seen this error?
I found it in my collection that has been in storage for 30 years.
I can't seen to replicate it, with several hours work in.
Thanks.  And what error is that my dear friend?, photo won’t upload |

Hi guys Do you know if there is a list of Hasbro figures that indicates when the wrestler wore the outfit he has as a figure? Not that I'm aware of. Also, I don't think that they did a lot of figures based off specific events, a lot of the figures used reference photos or promo photos. A lot of the guys didn't change up their looks so the attire is basically their generic attire; Andre, Hogan, Jake, Akeem, Bossman, Ax, Smash, DiBiase, Snuka, Rhodes, Piper, Hacksaw, Honky, Demolition, Bushwackers, Tornado, Perfect, S3 Beefcake, Hammer, Koko, Earthquake, Typhoon, Hitman, Dragon, Undertaker, Mountie, Model, Skinner, IRS, Warlord, Virgil, Anvil, Tatanka, Tito, Shango, Berzerker, Repoman, Crush, Kamala, Nailz, HBK, Razor, Owen, Yokozuna, Luger, Bigelow, Steiner Brothers, Doink, Gonzalez, Jannetty, Fatu, Samu, Borga, Crush, 123 Kid, and the Smoking Gunns. Some attires may be close, or specific to an event: S1 Rick Rude: Superstars 1988, I believe he wore this attire, or a similar one, when he hit on Jake's wife S1 Macho Man: WrestleMania IV S1 Brutus the Barber: WrestleMania IV S1 Warrior: not necessarily an event but, there is a promo picture of him that Mattel uses in the green tights, pink knee pads and white boots S2 Warrior: Survivor Series 89 S2 Macho King: Survivor Series 89 S2 Rockers: Summer Slam 89 or Survivor Series 89 S3 Slaughter: not an event but, there is a promo picture out there of him in the attire S3 Warrior: not sure if it is an exact match but, it is close to the attire he wore at the January 1991 Saturday Night's Main Event S4 Bulldog: he wore this attire at the 1991 Royal Rumble S5 Sid: He wore this attire, or a similar one, at the 1992 Royal Rumble S6 Flair: WrestleMania 8 S10 Jannetty: I believe he wore this attire on the Raw when he one the IC Title, I think the Rockers also wore this attire at the 1991 Royal Rumble S10 Razor Ramon: not sure if this is an exact match but, he did wear an all purple attire at the 1992 Survivor Series |

Oh great! Thanks a lot, MKSavage! Really! You're welcome. And I made a correction to the list, Brutus wore the Series 1 attire at WrestleMania 4 not 6. Also, some of the attires while not specific to any event, you could probably find an event/PPV that the wrestler did wear the attire for. For instance, the Series 2 Ted DiBiase, he wore the green suit at Summer Slam 88, Survivor Series 88 and Royal Rumble 89 before switching to the black suit by WrestleMania 5 which he wore from then till 1992 when he switched to the white and gold suit. The series 2 Jimmy Snuka wore the attire with bare feet at Survivor Series 89, Royal Rumble 90 and WrestleMania 6, after WrestleMania 6 he started wearing boots with trunks then went to long tights. The series 3 Greg Valentine did wear this attire at WrestleMania 5 and Survivor Series 89. Earthquake wore this attire at Royal Rumble 91 and on a WWF Superstars/Wrestling Challenge when he attacked Andre the Giant. Ricky Steamboat wore this attire during his 1991 run, the only PPV he was on was Summer Slam 91. Rick Martel wore the pink tights at all of the 1992 PPVs and the 1993 Royal Rumble. The Anvil wore this attire during his singles run and New Foundation run in 1991/92 but, the only PPV he was on with this attire was Royal Rumble 1992. Tito wore the green El Matador tights throughout 1991-93, he wore the tights at Survivor Series 1991, Tuesday in Texas 1991, Royal Rumble 1992, WM8, and Royal Rumble 1993. Virgil wore the white boxing tights at WrestleMania 7, Tuesday in Texas 1991, and on the Survivor Series Showdown show before Survivor Series 1991. For the Repo Man, he wore the attire at the Survivor Series Showdown before Survivor Series 1991, Tuesday in Texas 1991 and the Royal Rumble 1992, after this he started wearing a tank top instead of a sleeveless shirt. Nailz only wore this attire but he was also only on two PPVs, Summer Slam 1992 and Survivor Series 1992. Bam Bam wore this attire during his early 1993 run when he returned and he wore it on the Royal Rumble 1993 PPV. This was Lex's only Narcissist attire, he wore it at the 1993 Royal Rumble, WrestleMania 9 and King of the Ring 1993. Shawn Michaels wore the Series 6 figure attire for most of 1992, the two PPVs he wore it at were WrestleMania 8 and Summer Slam 1992. The Giant Gonzalez figure looks like he has the fur molded on the figure, the only time he wore the attire with the fur molded on was at Royal Rumble 1993, after that, he wore the same body suit put with painted on fur. Ludvig Borga only ever wore that attire that is on the figure and the only two PPVs he was on was Summer Slam 1993 and Survivor Series 1993. The Adam Bomb's figure attire looks like the attire he wore at the 1994 Royal Rumble and WrestleMania 10. For the other figures, its just their generic tights they wore most of the time. |

Definitely fell into those buckets described about last year. I'm 35 now, I had 12 Hasbro's growing up (I know, cause I can tell you now which ones are mine and which I've bought in the last few months) and then they weren't in stores anymore. Moved onto Jakks and had a few. Now that I have money, I wanted to go back and finish that collection. Also there's something to be said, I think, for restoration videos of rings on YouTube. That also helped create a bug in my ear. My ring was in rough shape with stickers and ropes and missing buckles. I was able to go back and piece it together and make it look nice.
Since last summer, I'm up to 70% of the collection completed, loose. I'm not neurotic about things being original so I've been fine buying repro accessories just to have the scope and look of what the figure should be. I've gotten the series 1 blue ring to join the series 2 I had as a kid.
It's been fun to dive back into this world, remembering epic battles that my Sid Justice waged against my Hulk Hogan with Hulkster Hug action.

One thing I really love about action figures is mixing the eras and making matches that never happened. What were your favourite dream matches with your Hasbros? (The ones that happened in real life, I either didn’t know had happened, hadn’t yet or I didn’t know the result of)
I had loads, such as:
Ultimate Warrior vs Yokozuna, vs Ric Flair, vs Giant Gonzalez, vs British Bulldog, vs Lex Luger, Roddy Piper, vs Shawn Michaels, vs Ludvig Borga
Andre the Giant vs Undertaker, vs Yokozuna, vs Giant Gonzalez, Vs Ludvig Borga
Bret Hart vs Rick Rude, vs Ricky Steamboat, vs Jake Roberts
Ricky Steamboat vs Mr Perfect, vs Ted DiBiase, vs Tatanka
Randy Savage vs Mr Perfect, vs Bret Hart, vs Roddy Piper, vs Bam Bam
Hulk Hogan vs Giant Gonzalez, vs Ludvig Borga, vs British Bulldog, vs Roddy Piper, vs Lex Luger
LOD vs The Steiners
Natural Disasters vs The Twin Towers
Demolition vs The Steiners, vs Natural Disasters, vs Headshrinkers
Ahem.......Warlord vs Papa Shango and Crush vs Adam Bomb
Anybody got any different ones?

Nice list, I'd agree with most of yours. I'd take Ricky Steamboat out of the bottom, I know people don't like the jumpers but I really liked this figure. I'd put both Rick Rude and 123 Kid in the worst, these and the Ric Flair were the worst. There playability was not good. Top 12: Hulk Hogan #1 Ultimate Warrior #1 Jake the Snake Andre the Giant Ultimate Warrior #2 Macho King #2 Brutus Beefcake #2 Mr. Perfect #1 Greg Valentine Undertaker #1 Virgil Bret Hart #2 Worst 12: Rick Rude Ric Flair 123 Kid Jimmy Snuka Hulk Hogan #2 Brutus Beefcake #1 Macho Man #4 Demolition Ax Bushwacker Butch #1 Bushwacker Luke #1 Bushwacker Butch #2 Bushwacker Luke #2 |

Interesting list -- so high on the early figures. I really do think they got better as they went, personally. Almost all of my favorites are from the 3rd wave of Blue Cards and up...
