Neidhart's 1991/92 run may not be his most memorable WWF run but it's the only time he had a majorly different look (that wasn't the Who). I have wanted this figure with the jacket and bandana practically all my life, I constantly bugged Jeremy Padawer to make it back for the CS line but it never happened.
Jakks covered every major look of his career, except the New Foundation and Hart Foundation 1997. (Early 80s heel w/ Jimmy Hart, late 80s face, early 90s tag champs and 1994 return w/ Owen)
Hell, do a Koko B Ware from High Energy just to keep him company!

I really started getting into wrestling in 1991-1992 so New Foundation was what I knew Anvil best for. I knew Hart Foundation from the tapes but I watched Anvil as a single or commentator wearing the NF outfit and then the Rumble PPV match. I liked his unique facial look, too. I was pretty happy to get the figure in the store in 1993. Plus, you could do his power slam which was a finishing move of his.

It's kinda useless without an Owen Hart, but I would no doubt buy this.

I would probably pass on a New Foundation Anvil but I'd buy Tho Who for sure.

Whats the point without Owen? He used it for a couple months as a singles guy before Owen turned up. Flair actually wrestled his first match in WWF against Anvil in that attire. |

Jim Neidhart had that look going for months before Owen Hart even appeared.
Like it was mentioned, Jim lost to Ric Flair on Superstars and the Beverly Brothers attacked Jim's knee as well. That's why Owen came in to help Jim in the feud with the Beverly Brothers.
But Jim ended up getting fired before any of that happened.
Then Owen did the singles run and was paired with Koko B. Ware as High Energy.

For shot-putting a monitor backstage that hit Chief Jay lol. Still hoping one day I can find the match the New Foundation wrestled against the Natural Disasters. |

I'd rather have a 97 version. And by rather I mean roughly 9,000 times more than this look.
I have the Hasbro. This would be an easy pass if Mattel did it.

Remember when everyone was upset we got Bret, Bulldog, & Pillman within a year and no Anvil? Well we still haven't got that Anvil
Closest thing to this I see ever being made is blue Bret & Anvil
