So I am starting to finally get my room put together and I have the hasbro figure poster that was awesome and such a good deal. I am looking for more hasbro style adverts or posters anyone has made. I am aware I can go through old WWF mags and get them there but I really dont want to take pages out of my magazines for it. If anyone could point me in a direction that would be great. I did see a post on here where it was hasbro style artwork of what they used on boxes but it didnt have any words on it and that ruled but I doubt I will be able to find that anywhere haha.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben P.

Awesome to actually see it as well. Ill have to search that on ebay. I was hoping to get some scanned advertising. out of the magazines but I might just try to find some WWF Mags that aren't in the greatest condition for cheap and just do that. Thanks for the reply! |

My family and friends don't get my love for WWF Hasbro & LJN. It took me awhile to explain it to them, because I didn't quite get it either.
I explained it to them that it's pop art. I like cartoon art and have bought autographed proof sheets of cartoons (back when art was done on paper and storyboards). They understood when I explained it that way. I think they just thought I was collecting toys in some way of recapturing my youth, haha.
My brother's a comic book artist and he's just now understanding why I enjoy them. I've actually given some of my beat up doubles to his children. I think I've spread the Hasbro love onto my 10-year old niece and four-year old nephew...even though they have no idea who they are. My niece wants to know their names and she has written them down so she knows who they are.
I would love to do something like what you're doing with Hasbro ads and promo materials. I just need more room since my collection is spilling over without any space to properly display everything.
Good luck finding what you need and please post a picture of your progress and recent additions. I would love to see what you find in the future.

Oh believe me my wife is the same way. She is dumbfounded sometimes when I get excited for finding anything old WWF. She just doesnt get it. I grew up watching prime WWF and with some of the best gimmicks and matches around. She loves wrestling but doesnt get my obsession with hasbro and early era WWF but its ok. It happens I guess haha. These are some of my pickups from the weekend though. I am pretty excited but as for the WWF shoot out figures I would not mind trading them for something.   |

fixedorbust - Could you put a bigger picture of your avatar on here? I have never seen that before! Is that G.I. Joe advertising?

An artist at a comic book show had a bunch of marvel stuff and DC stuff and then randomly had this tucked away. He also had a big 11x17 version of it but I was running low on funds due to finding the WWF Battlemania series at the show. So I just bought a little carded one he painted. Pretty stoked with it. |

Re: Rockers cover, the Valentine ad was in another WWF magazine which I think is September's issue and it was on the page before a Beverly Brothers article. It's weird it was still going months after the R&B team set was scrapped.
