Anyone collect these,or have good pictures? I'd like to get a couple of them. I passed back then because I thought the sweating was stupid,but I loved the look from what I can recall. Are the sweat holes obvious enough to ruin the visual appeal of a loose fig?
Will a loose fig be gross due to use in water?

Will a loose fig be gross due to use in water? the sweat holes arent that noticable. here are about 31 photos showing maximum sweat figures

I got Kane at Christmas 1999 and I thought it was one of the best presents ever. I loved that his mask was removable and the crate of dynamite was cool aswell.

100% agreed . These were some of the first wrestling figures my parents bought me. I loved that Kane since his mask came off. It gave us kids all sorts of theories as to what the Big Red Machine actually looked like! Though these guys were huge, ugly and gross, I liked them. I think I had Kane, Taker, Gunn and Triple H. I never understood how Austin worked though haha. I mean at least the other guys had hair where the sweat holes showed through. There were sort of noticeable. But bald old Austin lol. I don't think I ever saw him, Edge or Bossman in stores. I would have grabbed Bossman for sure.

Only one I ever had was HBK. Not my favorite toy, but I always liked it as a one-off specialty item. When I was like 10 I would fill it with fruit juice to give Shawn the proverbial Crimson mask.

These things were always so freaking weird. Fun to look at on the internet though.

That was the main reason why I wanted the Kane and I remember when I opened it I could've wait to see his face. Good memories. One of my friends had Austin and I remember their was small cracks in his abs and that's where the sweat came from.

Does any know if the breakable wooden board that comes with Road Dogg the same as the one that came with DA Cena? Cent remember the series, but believe he had his black shirt with orange and the bulldog face.

Most of them were terrible. A few were cool like bossman gangrel and mankind with the hardcore title.

I remember when these came out, I only ended buying The Rock, it even came with a little clear bottle to put the water in, they were so ridiculous

Question I've always wondered about these: I know there were four regular series, but I've also seen the shiny/different attired "special edition" figures floating around. Where did those originate? Store exclusive of some kind?

I remember getting the Rock, solely for the ladder. Even though the ladder was crappy, figure sized ladders were hard to come by back then.
I also remember wanting Kane, just to remove the mask.
The hardcore belt was awesome as well.
And if that Big Show figure isn't the most hideous thing of all time....

Store exclusive of some kind? I seem to remember seeing them at a store called Service Merchandise. They were a chain store sort of like Sears but mine closed down years and years ago. I think they all did.

There could be more.
