*OFFICIAL HASBRO POST* Hasbromaniac

I was about to apologize myself for coming off like a dick in my response. That wasn't my intention, but in the three days that I have been on the boards I've seen answers (and some really good educated guesses) to these questions come up multiple times, and I was just browsing. But just by casually observing with little or no effort I know more than I did before.

lol @ this fixedorbust poster also. You realised a couple of months ago when you signed up to this board, that it was a DISCUSSION FORUM right? If not, you always know where the door is. I have no idea who you are, nor does anybody else. You wont be missed.

100% agree Andy!

Awesome! Loved this post. Makes me miss my childhood. I need to finish my green card collection and the Mailaways.

Would anyone happen to know where I can find a pic of every hasbro MOC? My google results sucked lol. Also loved all the posts by hasbro maniac.

I think we should update this post as it looks out of date with all the new Hasbro items poping up in the last few months...

we should have 1 thread with all the Hasbro information known with pictures of all the rare items known!

Off the Top of my head I am sure there is 16 'body options' on figures used (that might even be less than this figure) but what I can gather there is about 16.

Cheers

By my count there are 15 different movesets.  It's not a definitive count, by any means.  Due to the similarity of some movesets, one could argue for as few as 13 or as many as 18+ different movesets.  As an example, some might consider Roddy Piper's uppercut to be distinct from the more standard uppercut they gave to guys like Smash and Ted DiBiase (s1).  

Here's a quick little rough guide.  I'm dividing move sets based on the series in which it was originally introduced.  If anybody sees any mistakes or wants to add anything, feel free to chime in!  All of the movesets were introduced by the third series; everything that came after that recycled an older moveset.  I'd also caution that there are more body types than there are movesets, so while the two are strongly linked together, they aren't the same thing. 

Series 2

8. Stomp. My favorite action as a kid! Instead of one action, you get two! The intended action is thus; with the opponent on the ground, stand your figure over him. Lift up the right arm and you'll notice the right foot raises along with it; release and the spring mechanism forces the arm and foot back down, thereby stomping your opponent. Can be done in rapid succession. Because the arm also move, you can also stand your figure in front of a standing opponent, lift the arm, and clobber your opponent down. They should have used this one more IMO!
- Bushwhacker Butch (s2), Ted DiBiase (s2), Irwin R. Schyster (s5), Bushwhacker Luke (s10)

9. Buchwhacker Bounce. This one is basically worthless as an attack, but undoubtedly fun for all the little Bushwhacker fans that abounded in the early 90's. Lift one arm and other arm rotates in the opposite direction; release and both spring back in the directions from which they came, respectively.
- Bushwhacker Luke (s2), Bushwhacke Butch (s10)

10. Clothesline. Can be used as either a clothesline or a right hook depending on which way you choose to articulate the elbow (straight or hooked, respectively). Facing a standing opponent, take the action side and pull it back; the spring mechanism propels the figure back forward, causing it to lariat or punch the opponent, which should fall over. One of the most re-used movesets.
- Demolition Crush (s2), Randy Savage (s2, s3), Big Bossman (s3), Greg Valentine (s3), Nasty Boy Knobs (s4), Undertaker (s4, s6 MA, s8), Jim Neidhart (s5), Owen Hart (s7), Razor Ramon (s7, s10), Rick Steiner (s9), Bart Gunn (s11)

11. Bear Hug. Pull arms/fists apart and the spring mechanism pushes them back together. The intended move was to have the opponent in the bearhug, but as a kid I preferred to lean the opponent so that his head would get crushed in between the figures fists as the sprung back together. The only figure to get this was the Series 2 Hulk Hogan. In hindsight, I think this mechanism lended itself well to the later Crush figures. He used bear hugs and also used a ridiculous finish whereby he crushed his opponents skull between his hands.

12. "Rocker Dropper". Similar to the series 1 "Top Rope Attack". Place your figure on the turnbuckle pad (or similar hard object) and, while above and facing toward his opponent, pull the right arm down; this depresses the torso. When released, the figure haphazardly launches forward, hopefully hitting his opponent in the process. This mechanism didn't work terribly well (probably why it was never re-used), but you could also use it against an opponent face to face as a sort of headbutt attack. The only figure to get this mechanism was the Series 2 Marty Jannetty.
