Hi. Can anyone give me any information on the ring in the top of the pic (with the hasbro figures); Here is the link cgi.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED/1991-JC-Penney-Catalog-WWF-Hasbro-WCW-Galoob_W0QQitemZ330056165261QQihZ014QQcategoryZ1170QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem The reason I ask this is because I received this ring sealed in it's original box awhile back and the back of the box for the ring shows generic awa remco figures on the back (2 was included with it) and it said that it was good for awa all star wrestlers and all other wrestling figures, I gave the ring to my youngest son and it was destroyed in a couple of days, I just assumed it was a knockoff ring (even though I wondered how they could use the awa name and slogan) but why would they show it in a magazine with wwf hasbro figures (why not just show the hasbro figures in a hasbro ring, is this ring affiliated with hasbro and I'm not aware of it?)

I had that ring for a few days in 1991. Hills stores carried it, it no longer included any AWA knock-off wrestlers, and the posts caved in after about a day. It had a soundbox in it, and for whatever reason the one I'd gotten included a second, detachable soundbox. When it broke, we exchanged it for another but the same thing happened. I kept the extra soundbox and we returned the second for a refund.
I wish I'd kept it instead of returning it, but I do remember with the money from the return I bought Akeem, Butch Reed, and several other Hasbros and Galoobs.

Ahhh, I miss the good old days of waiting for the JC Penney's and Sears catalogs so I could make my Christmas wishlists.
