H-Man's WCW Galoobs - The British Bulldog - Pg 10

Here is the 8th in the series of my WCW Galoob Custom Figures, Wrestling legend "Ravishing" Rick Rude!!!

As my project is all about making the Characters that might have been made had Galoob continued developement of the line, then as one of WCW's biggest heels ever its absolutley 100% safe to say that a Rick Rude Figure would have been on the cards.

The look and attire of the figure is based on Rude's Short Hair style appearance Rude adopted thoughout his 1991-1994 tenure at WCW. Rudes's exuberant tights were some of the most awesome and detailed designs ever seen in wrestling, so it was a challenge to adapt a design that achieved similar colorful and busy look, but still took into consideration the reality of what might have been achievable and cost effective in production in the early 90's.

I chose a "flexing" pose as it was a pose Rude would often would use during matches, as well as setting the figures arms into position that would be ideal to execute the "Rude Awakening" Neck Breaker on another figure.

There are more classic characters on the way, one of them in development at the moment. But progrees is intermitant, as in the UK right now we are having the best Summer we have had in years, so i'm making the most of getting outside in my spare time before the usual bad weather returns!
