Got in the first two of my Hasbro buys as I try and go for a complete loose set. Started out with two of my absolute favourites! 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.

Just have to add that, after many years, I'm finally adding Razor Ramone (red trunks, I'm not THAT lucky) to my loose collection. Finally snagged the bad guy, in pretty nice condition, for a good price, from a guy who doesn't seem to deal exclusively in wrestling figures. It's been a good year for my toy hunting, and getting Razor caps it off nicely. Honestly, there's not many Hasbro that I'm in need of now. I'm not a completest, and don't plan on being one for now, but apart from a few more I'd like to have, I'm just really happy to finally have guys that I never got to own as a kid.

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've never even seen any green cards in person, and I only ever saw a couple of red card figures in person, mainly Bam Bam. Black pants Shawn is a huge want for me, but it's way too pricey. There's also a lot of custom versions out there masquerading as the real deal. Do you have purple Razor? I'm gonna try for him next year, along with 123 Kid 🤞

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!

I added one of my favorite Tag Teams to the Hasbro Collection. Demolition Mint on Card! Card is in pretty good condition!
Unrelated question. Is there a marketplace in this forum for old figures? I'd like to expand my MOC Collection.

There is a classified section where you can trade with or purchase from other members, but you need at least 50 posts to get access to that thread.

I'd like to expand my MOC Collection. 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!

Got a new Hasbro MOC yesterday. I can't even begin to describe, how surprised I was, about the fantastic condition the carding is in. Beside a little crease on the J-Hook, which is barely noticeable, this card is absolutely mint.

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.

Are you just buying your favourites or is the long term plan a full MOC set? Also see your a Chella collector so that's cool with me, how are you doing those, MOC/Loose?

I would love to have a full MOC set, but considering the prices, that's unrealistic to me. At least in the near future. For now, I'll stick to trying to get the favorites from Series 1-3. Although, i'm well aware, that i'll probably never get my hand on MOCs like Andre, Dusty, Warrior #3 etc. I offered to trade my loose 1-2-3 Kid for Hasbro MOC Figures on a Facebook group, but I didn't get any interesting offers.
I was a bit late to the Chella-party, so I only got the Dynamite Kid on the secondary market. But I already pre-ordered 2 Haku figures from Series 2. I'll keep one packed and let one breathe

Bought a set of 88 Loose Hasbro Figures last week. I have yet to decide, how and where i'll display them. I just put some of the rare ones and personal favorites out so far.
Would you be willing to share a ballpark price of what you paid?

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.

Does anyone have some advice for touch-ups? I've bought some Hasbro's in fairly decent shape with the exception of a nick here and there.
For instance, I have LOD that could use some fresh black paint on the spikes.
Thanks!
