Was wondering if Dusty is hard to find in the UK?. I didn't have the figure when I originally had them years ago but thought it would be cool to add him to my collection now. I have noticed on eBay he sells for quite abit, so I'm guessing he's rare in the UK. I think I saw him on the shelves once but next time it was gone, so I assume if it was released in the UK it was a very limited release as he would have been in WCW at the time.

I don't think he was available here in the UK. I certainly never seen him in the shops.
If I remember right there's a low batch released of Dusty Rhodes due to him being released from his WWF contract. It could be something like only 5,000 only available but I'm not 100% on that.

He is considered rare either way you look at it, although I believe the bi lingual card is the hardest one to find by far.

There's a fair few loose, but I'm not sure on the actual number released.
I know, growing up, he was the only one I never had series 1 through 7, so he may not have been released in the UK.
He's pretty cheap (loose) if you pick him up from the US - like $25 + post.

Thanks for the replies. I think the store I saw Dusty in was either John Menzies or WH Smith's. Off topic, but there was also a big wrestling book in there too, which had results from the WWF-SWS show and I haven't seen it since. I'm guessing it wasn't a WWF product, but I think it had Warrior on the cover.

There's plenty about in the uk, I always look at 2nd hand sites! Your best bet is to do what I did, on the auction site look for a bulk load - find Rhodes - offer some cash for just him - everyone happy  |

Dusty was never released in the uk, unless anyones got a Dusty with a Newport gwent sticker on the back, which they havent. UK released hasbro series did not include Dusty as we got them after the US release, and he was gone:  |
