Does anyone know what the final set of ToyBiz WCW figures were? The "newest" sets I can find are from 2000. I'm looking for figures released in 2001 if there were any.

Wasn't the Bash at The Beach and Evolution of Sting set both released in 2001?
And Unleashed was Vampiro, Awesome, Franchise, and Kidman.

The final set of Toy Biz WCW figures were actually released after WCW went under. It was a "Best Of" set on mini cards. The card backs are just a little bigger than the figures themselves. They were a KB Toys exclusive. Set included- Power Slam Kanyon, Power Slam Hogan (black Hollywood), Unleashed Mike Awesome, Smash N' Slam Sting (B/W face), Smash N' Slam DDP (black jeans) and Ring Fighters Booker T (black tights).

I believe you missed the Ring Fighters Scott Steiner in white, which happens to be the only one I have available at hand, but it has a 1999 date on the back.

If I recall correctly, there were multiple sets and boxed sets that were scheduled for production and then never hit shelves when WCW fell apart. Who knows what may be floating around in a cargo container somewhere.

I could be remembering wrong but I'm pretty sure. -- Also, skull, the unreleased Bryan Clark had a new headsculpt different to the wrath figure. it was a great likeness if memory serves me correctly, shame it wasn't released.

Booker T (2001 Attire, kit-bashed Smash 'N Slam Scott Hall with a Ring Fighters Booker T head based on the prototype picture). The Brian Adams used a Power Slam Sid Vicious body.

I could be remembering wrong but I'm pretty sure. It was the variant Smash N Slam DDP with no shirt/black jeans that was re-released on the mini blisters: All the Smash N Slam figures and variant releases, except for The Giant. Anyone know why?

Anyone know why? ah, my mistake. that is indeed the larger Smash N Slam mould. the attire matches the original bruisers one though, that's why I must have got confused. I don't understand the question you're asking though, did you mistype? anyone know what about the Smash N Slam figures?

My question about the Smash N Slam set was/is: All the figure in the set had a variant release, e.g. regular Goldberg came with a red luchador, variant with a blue one, Regular Sting was in red attire, variant in white, regular DDP shirt, variant whitout etc. The Giant was the only figure of the set that does not have a variant release (of far as I know of). Doe anybody know the reason why Giant did not have a variant in the set?

I cannot remember who was selling it, but I saw someone trying to sell a variant of The Giant. One had white skin, the other was advertised as peach colored, I believe. It wasn't a tanned version.

Actually, if you count the one from the 2-pack with Kevin Nash, The Giant did have a variant (neck brace).

he same variant of ddp come in the announcers set with michael buffer and scott steiner (a repaint of the ring fighters black one), and the one from bruisers line has the same torso and almost the same headscan (except for the sunglasses), but he was smaller and not in "diamond position". the torso was basically a shirted torso not painted, see the back. i remember seeing the prototype of smash n' slam goldberg with another figure different from rey mysterio. here's the brian clark unreleased figure: he same variant of ddp come in the announcers set with michael buffer and scott steiner (a repaint of the ring fighters black one). i remember seeing the prototype of smash n' slam goldberg with another figure different from rey mysterio. [/img] i remembered well, because it should have been a complete repaint (headscan included) of the bruisers wrath.
