Anyone else seen this on the Bay??
the bag is opened, so it's just an open bag with a used Dusty in, and bids upto £100 so far
as probably the biggest Dusty Rhodes Hasbro collection in the world, I wouldn't touch this with a 6ft stick.

Just report it as counterfeit: NOT a Hasbro bag (same for Savage).

the bag isn't all the way opened though. it looks like the hole is too small to fit a figure in and out of. Did McDonalds ever give away bagged Hasbros?

Silvervision did with the vhs promotion, i read about the DJ Kat Show too, some people even said that when they ordered from the WWF magazine their figure arrived in a baggie, its also well known about the JC Penney bagged figures so if McDonalds ever did a giveaway we'd definitely know, plus, the bags are very different to any known examples, a heat sealer is relatively cheap to buy nowadays too so wouldnt be hard to slice one open with a craft blade and reseal

This seller has been listing his entire Hasbro collection over the last few weeks. I’ve got a couple of items from him in those listings and everything has been fantastic, so I’m inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt to think that rather than trying to scam people he’s maybe been scammed on these at some point in the past. But until someone can produce something to support these as mailaways then scam they must be.

Another seller on the UK site has a Warrior #1 in a similar bag up for sale right now too.

I know he has a load of legit amazing items for sale, meaning he has enough knowledge of Hasbros to know the truth about the mailaway Dusty he listed.

True; though the JC Penny and Silvervision figures might just have created enough doubt to trick a collector back in the day, but now with the focus there has been on the line it seems more difficult to genuinely not know. The longer it stays up might be an indicator of his intentions here: I'm sure people will have questioned him about them since they were listed.

Something I just noticed, I read the writing on the back of the bag in English, it says Coins are a choking hazard. The plot thickens

There's no way more of these wouldn't have surfaced if they were legit.

It just gets worse and worse; seriously thinking of cancelling my bid

I had purchased a funskool from the seller so asked him to shed light about this Dusty when it was listed. He said he had purchased it off ebay a while back and that he himself doesn't believe it to be a mailaway. D**k move if you ask me as its stated that its a mailaway and told me that its not. Whoever wins hope they get a happy meal with it.
