Hello everyone! My name is Zach Gowen.
For those unfamiliar with my story, I'm the world's first one-legged professional wrestler. I lost my left leg to cancer at age 8, then by 18 I decided to fearlessly follow my dream. I've been a professional wrestler for over 11 years having been blessed with opportunities to work for every single major company and organization worldwide. Some of you may remember my time spent with WWE 10 years ago; some of you may have seen some of my recent independent work or have attended my public speaking events. Some may have never heard of me. Whatever the case may be, I'm extremely grateful you're reading this.
Wrestling has been incredibly kind to me and has given me more than I could have ever imagined. I have mixed feelings about asking for more from the business I love so dearly. But the one regret I've had is there's never been an officially licensed ZG action figure made. After seeing my 15 month old son kindly 'adopt' all of my action figures (his favorite is the Mattel WWE Legends Kamala), I thought to myself "wouldn't it be cool if he could play with his dad's very own action figure?"
I'm here to campaign on my own behalf to get one in production.
Would this be something ya'll would be interested in buying? Would it have a detachable prosthetic leg? Has there ever been an action figure made like this one? Personally I think it's a great idea but I'm a little biased
It was suggested to me that I come on here and throw it to you guys. Thank you for reading. I'm open to any and all suggestions.

P.S. if this gets a positive reaction and there's interest, maybe a moderator can set up a reddit-style ama on the main board in the near future?
