Just started re-collecting the old mags, and was hopeing to seek out the ones with the Hasbro ads first.
Anyone know what Year/Month contained the ads?
Specifically wondering about:
91: Tag Teams TRU ad w/R&B 93: Undertake Em' All 93: Mailaways 94: Slam Doink!
Also would like the find the issue where they did the behind the scenes tour of the figure making. Think that was sometime in 91' as I remember all the S2 and S1 Tag Teams.
Were there any others I'm not thinking of?

Mailaways November 1993 - Lex Luger on Cover
Slam Doink! April 1994 - Yokozuna, Bret Hart, Lex Luger on Cover July 1994 - Diesel on Cover September 1994 - Owen and Anvil on Cover December 1994 - Macho Man on Cover

Thanks MK and Ruby! Had no clue the Doink ad appeared more than once. They're all the same right?

The mail-a-ways could have appeared more than once as well, a few of the magazines that I still have are missing the pages were you can order WWF merchandise and the mail-a-way page was attached to those. The other ads (TRUs, Undertake 'em all, and Slam Doink) were all inside cover pages, wasn't missing any of those pages.

Great thanks! I remember stareing at these ads for months back then. We had a subscription pretty much for years from the late 80's til mid 90's, sadly I think they're all gone.

So on this subject, about the Hasbro "tour". What were we really seeing there with the figures out on the trays. As an adult I now know everything is done in mass on machines. But, the way they made it out in the photos, when I was a kid, I thought they were all painted by hand lol.
