I really like the Kendrick, but something looks off about it, maybe the eyes?

While we're killing time... Valentine was tag team champions with Flair in Mid-Atlantic Had a bitter feud with Piper culminating in a double dog collar match Tag champs with Beefcake as original Dream Team and lost to Bulldogs Completes the 1990s Million Dollar Team with already released DiBiase, Undertaker and Honky Tonk Man Finishes another tag team - Rhythm and Blues IC and tag team champion US tag team champ with Terry Taylor Was one of the top stars in that late 70s/early 80s. Had an epic feud with Tito Santana over the Intercontinental Championship Belt. Had a feud with WWF Champion Bob Backlund, in that feud he won a match that declared him the new champion but the belt was later upheld and they had to have another match to determine the true winner. So he was technically a WWF Champion for a little while like Andre the Giant and Ted DiBiase. And he was a staple in the very popular Hulk-a-Mania era (1985-1991), one of the most popular eras in wrestling history. To go with all the stuff that you listed. And, has the most expensive WWF Hasbro figure - his prototype Rhythm and Blues figure. Still needs to sell figures though in 2018. Dude can’t even sell autographs at some conventions |

You guys might be looking into the card thing a bit much. Not sure that they classify the same as a figure or shirt They are a type of merchandise and the reason I brought it up was to see if anyone knows how this whole merch thing works. Does Topps have the freedom to go out and sign whomever they want OR do they only make trading cards of wrestlers that are under WWE legends deal (most likely IMO). |

Lol agreed! Tito’s going to have a new best friend if this hits retail I think it has been said on this forum a few times that the HOF Tito was accidently over packed and not meant to have as many figures per case as it did which resulted in the shelf warming. Also, I think it is a good bet that the Rooster figure will be the next TRUs exclusive so you don't have to worry about him warming shelves. Isn't TRU going out of Business though? |

Hes a staple in any golden age / hulkamania roster and he would complete a rhythm and blues tag team plus he has a great robe and a sweet hair do . Whatelse is there to know. Now, the black R&B hair would be sick. I am, however, worried they'd make his hair look bad like Alundra's. Would love a Rhythm and Blues set in either there blue attire or the red and black attire. Not only because we would finally get a Greg Valentine but I would like another Honky Tonk Man in his Elvis-like jumpsuit. |

If it’s a TRU exclusive I guess we have to worry about there even being shelves for it to be warming |

I think Mattel has learned from some of their earlier mistakes to avoid figures that rot on shelves. I do wonder what the status of TRU exclusives are in general given the company's financial situation. They haven't had any sort of exclusive since Virgil in Oct or Nov, and we saw Shark protos around that time as well and haven't heard anything since. I'm hoping we'll have some clearer answers by the end of this weekend. |

Does Topps have the freedom to go out and sign whomever they want OR do they only make trading cards of wrestlers that are under WWE legends deal (most likely IMO). Images might work different. They still release cards of football and baseball players that have no current affiliation with leagues or teams. So they might just get photo rights on their own or it falls under the idea of the network. Wwe might own the rights to the images |

Naomi is just what I was hoping for, looks like the belt has some glow in the dark elements, possibly UV reactive. Definitely buying her.
Carmella is pretty dope too, not a huge fan of her's but I won't turn down a good looking figure like that.
Kendrick is alright, not a fan of the jacket but the flag is a nice touch.

Dark haired Rhythm & Blues is really the only version of the Hammer I would pass on.

I’ve never even seen Brian Kendrick before. Is that a normal look the way his eyes are on the figure? It’s freaky
