This board has been kind of dead lately, so I thought I'd break out some rare stuff. As promised, here is a picture of the unproduced "Heroes of Wrestling" Bret Hart figure which I purchased on eBay earlier this year. Sorry for the delay, and I understand your skepticism given some of the recent activity on this board, but that's neither here nor there. Bret is a hand-painted resin piece and is glued to his clear plastic base. He comes in several pieces - legs, torso, head, and hands. Unfortunately, the original owner lost one of the hands. I should note that this figure is probably about 2 or 3 inches taller than the released Taker and Sid. Original promo shot, courtesy of the wfigs database:

Oh man, I have been looking forward to seeing this bad boy. He looks really nice. I hate that the hand is missing... seems careless of someone to lose a part of something so extremely rare. I like the sculpting of the body, but I'm not too big on that head. More than nice for the time period. Awesome piece dude. I know you must be proud of him.

Not to sound nosy, but how much did you pay for it?

Glad you guy enjoyed it. I'll try to get some better pictures soon. Not to sound nosy, but how much did you pay for it? $190, which was fair, IMO.
