warrior has more business sense then anyone from his era. someone mentioned hogan, flair, etc who still have to wrestle in their 60s, which is embarrassing, because they were idiots. warrior had a couple runs of only a few years each and is still making a good living off of it to this day. haters will hate. Warrior having more business sense than Hogan? I think not. Just because he was cleaned out during a divorce doesn't mean he lacked great business sense. Hogan goes to the ring, waves his hand around and puts it to his ear a few times, rips his shirt, points his finger, does a big boot (If your lucky I suppose.) followed by a leg drop and goes home. The man has no talent and has managed to pimp himself and his brand into the most recognized name in wrestling. Flair lacked business sense but he is so well known that even in his 60's in this era of instant gratification and pretty boys with no talent he can still fill a stadium with fans on name alone. Warrior with more business sense than anyone in his era? Are you SERIOUS? I hear that Roddy Piper isn't doing too badly himself... Honestly Warrior may have been able to keep his wealth but that doesn't make him the greatest business man of his era. I'm not going to knock him but I disagree with his position on custom figures violating his property rights.

I'm not going to knock him but I disagree with his position on custom figures violating his property rights. The Ultimate Warrior character was active for a total of 4-5 years at most. Hulk Hogan is still having to work at 60 after 28 years of Hulkamania. I don't legally disagree with the copyright, because people are trying to profit from his image, without licence. However, he should ease his problem with great custom attires that have never been released in quantity, such as Summerslam 92 or Royal Rumble

Axe, that's great! How did you do the back tattoo?
If you look at the DM box he's holding, it looks like the left hand side of the box (facing us) shows the warrior's left arm. In that pic, on his arm it looks like there's a tattoo of O W N. Also if you look closely at the figure in the package the left arm that's down seems to have the tattoo on it as well.
Does warrior have an OWN tattoo on his arm in real life?

$5000.00 on the website. INSANE ! Are there promo codes for his site? I think if you could shave off the shipping, it'd be a steal of a deal. I tried RAGINGELEPHANTS, but it must've expired?

I am as big of a Warrior fan as they come but this is just plain Stupid.
I would be more likely to spend that kind of money on a Hasbro deco than this thing. At least throw in some accessories, like every title he held in all their colors for that price.
BTW, if Warrior ever expects fans to keep supporting him he really needs to give back to the people that made him. Like accepting a HOF invitation, or even making an appearance on TV once in a while. Lord knows WWE is still making him money the least he can do is come to some sort of agreement with them and realize he isn't the only Legend WWE has.

That doesn't seem very mature to win an auction you have no intention of paying for. You wanted to use his likeness for profit without his permission.

I wanted to sell something I bought legit, I dont need his damn permission. ![;)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wink.gif) It might be immature but I dont care ![:)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/smiley.gif) Im not Mass Marketting His likeness in an attempt to make profit, I Was selling an Ultimate Warrior figure with a new deco painted, From Yes, An Ultimate Warrior figure I bought Legit. Selling for what it cost to make Also Warrior tries to make thousands off of one warrior at a time through silent auctions, yet the guy trying to make his money back on a custom is in the wrong because Mr Warrior shuts down every custom warrior figure so his exclusives are in higher demand. I dont care if everyone on this site thinks im an as s , Warrior can suck it
