*OFFICIAL HASBRO POST* Hasbromaniac

A great mail day today!

Nice, I picked a Tatanka up recently along with Tornado. I had them in the past but sold or swapped them on.

I've actually managed to get a few Hasbro wants off my list this year come to think of it, figures I've never had before like HBK and Papa Shango, tried to get Razor a few times but I've not been successful.

I collect loose as well so I've been pretty lucky with the condition of the ones I've bought.

That’s what it’s all about man. I used to stare at the back of the packaging and wish I had them all. Like you, I still don’t have all of them, but I have most of them. I think I’m just missing Rick Steiner, and two from the red card series, Undertaker and Yokozuna. I only have one green card series figure, Yoko. I’ll probably never have the others because I’d be crazy to spend that kind of money. And I’ll buy the mail aways if I hit the lottery.

edit- just remembered I don’t have the Shawn Michaels in black tights either. I knew I’d forget somebody. I’ll bet there’s a few others I’m not thinking of now. 

I have purple Razor. I got lucky and scored him off e bay last year for $32. Sometimes you can find people who don’t really know what they have. The green series Yokozuna I have was another lucky e bay purchase from someone who didn’t know its true value. The seller had it listed as something like “wwf Yokozuna figure 1993” Loose for $71, the seller took my best offer. It was a weird feeling to hold it in my hands when I first got it, like you’re holding gold! It’s the only green series figure I’ve ever seen.

Even as a child, I never saw a red or green card figure at the store. I still remember the only yellow card and purple card I ever saw on shelves- yellow card Shawn Michaels and purple card Scott Steiner. Both at kaybee. Those were the days…

Do you have both rings? I bought the yellow one like 15 years ago. It’s crazy to see how much they go for today. I’m still missing the red flag though. It’ll be mine one of these days!

Carding on the Demolition looks great! Fantastic add to the collection.

To answer your question on the Classifieds, once you reach 50 posts on here it opens up to you. Great place to buy and sell!

I am in the process of completing a loose Hasbro full set. I started out with my original childhood figures which was more than half of them. During this process I wound up buying a Mr. Perfect 1 and Hogan 3 on foreign cards I planned to open but can't bring myself to do it. Along the same lines I have a MOC Ludvig Borga that I don't think I'll ever open. Just got in a Jim Duggan 2 today and was surprised the flag is the same height as the figure. My conditions are that there is minimal paint wear and that the action feature works. Right now the ones I am having a hard time finding in good condition are Dibiase 1, Earthquake, and Nailz because they seem prone to paint wear. Otherwise I am only missing Razor 1, Evil Crush, and Billy Gunn. Oh and I'm somehow missing 1 Demolition helmet and the Mountie's shock stick. All other figures have the accessories.

Edit: Forgot to say that I also ended up buying the Hogan mailaway still in bag. And I have an extra Undertaker cloak because when I traded my friend the Undertaker figure for Dusty Rhodes in 5th grade I forgot to give it to him.

Totally understand. MOC Hasbro's are something I'd love to do but the price is too much for me to even think about it.
