Anyone know the history behind this figure. Why is it considered rare when many of the other figures hold little value? Was it a mail away?
Hoping to find one of these mint to near mint someday. Definitely one of my all time favorite wrestlers!

I believe King Kong Bundy and Jake "The Snake" Roberts were only sold in Canada, near the end of the LJN/Grand Toys run.

Oh ok, were they packaged together? I've seen moc pictures of Bundy with Orndorff. So far Roberts was only seen loose. |

If you go into the Search box at the top of the banner, enter "LJN Bundy Thumb" in the "Use all words" box and use 3500 days (or more as it will take you back up 10 years) and there are 4 pages of previous discussion on the subject. It is generally felt (and proven in one particular photo) as Ruby mentioned that Bundy and Orndorff were packaged together. No one here has ever seen an MOC Jake Roberts, but it was mentioned that he was packaged with Steamboat on one of the posts. We have no proof of this as there are no known photos.
