I always wanted Jakks to make this attire, from "Tuesday In Texas" w/ Macho Man. I was so happy when I saw it in K-Mart last year, but I hadnt purchased a figure in years so I just passed on them all. Thankfully, Mattel pretty much gave me that itch again to start collecting and without further ado, here is my latest Ebay receiving!  |

That's awesome! Tuesday in Texas? Is that the poorly viewed PPV where Taker fought Hogan?

Undertaker was so bad a$$ back in the day... made him look weak for Flair to slide the chair in too, but Im sure that was Hogan backstage politics =/ But back to the figure. I think it's one of the best Mattel Legends right up there with Demolition! Yea, it shouldve come with the bag, but its still a nice fig to display/have in the collection! |

Very awesome figure and very cool that he is in this attire. Sets this one apart from most other Jake figures.

Taker won the title from Hogan at Survivor Series 91 after Flair slid the chair in and Taker tombstoned Hogan on it. President Tunney ordered the rematch for This Tuesday in Texas, which had Hogan win amidst controversy, so he was stripped of the title and it was announced that whomever won the 1992 Rumble match would become the Undisputed WWF Champion.

Love that figure...I actually quoted Jake's promo leading up to Tuesday in Texas when I was arguing with my ol lady. He said "This Tuesday in Texas....Its not the beginning...Its not the end...Its not even the beginning of the end...yet the end of the beginning." Of course I left out the "This Tues in Tex" part haha
His All Stars figure is also great as well

It was $22 Shipped. The carding is very very nice and the bubble is completely in tact. Yea, I'm looking at getting that All-Star pack in the future.

I've seen it got upwards of $30 and the carding nowhere near as good as this one.
I do agree that this is a very under rated fig. This one is pretty much flawless, but had they included the Black snake bag aswell, then I'm almost positive that this would be more sought after.
Hopefully, when I get to the house this afternoon, then I'll have something else at the door step =)
