I found some wrestling figures called Friday Night Fighters and they were made by Manley Toys and are from the 90's. They are the size of the WWE figures and the Friday Night Fighters also have a wrestling ring that can also fit the WWE figures too. I never knew about these wrestling figures until I saw these sets and they look cool Doctorwhofan

Couldn't find pictures of "Friday Night Fighters", but I know Manley Toys did the ECW bootlegs as "Wrestling Action Figure".

Looked up the company name. I remember the stretch screamers they made those we cool. They make the figures from the old OSTM ECW figures.

I never realized that Manley Toys made wrestling figures because the only place that I found Manley Toys was at Big Lots and they also made dolls for girls and one of the dolls that Manley Toys made was a fashion doll named Robin and she was the size of the WWE Superstars Dolls and Barbie and Robin could also wear Barbie clothes and there was even a line of Robin clothes that could also fit Barbie and the WWE Superstars Dolls as well as Robin. I do believe that Manley renamed itself ToyQuest and you can still find ToyQuest toys in specialty shops. But I wonder if Manley Toys made other wrestling figures besides Friday Night Fighters?

Doctorwhofan They're basically repaints of the "Wrestling Federation" bootlegs. The "Wrestling Federation" bootlegs started out as bootlegs of OSFTM ECW figures like Rhino, Taz, Sabu, Tommy Dreamer, Lance Storm, New Jack, Jerry Lynn, ... . Later the "Wrestling Federation" bootlegs also featured bootlegs of Bret Hart, HBK, Kane, Dude Love as well as generic heads and new accessories like chestplates and masks. Apparently Manley Toys repainted and repackaged them as "Friday Nite Slam" or the less inspirational "Wrestling Action Figure". Back in the day these bootlegs were mostly interesting for their accessories: tables, chairs, ladders, guardrails, crutches, but also: chainsaws, chains, dogs, ... Manley Toys is a Chinese company founded in 1977 and still existed in 2018.

Off topic but I would kill for some Saturday Night Slam Masters figures. Closest I have ever seen are some plush toys from Japan (Muscle Bomber). There is probably a Haggar figure or statue out there but he wasn’t one of my favorite characters.

I remember finding it at a car boot sale having never heard of it, and it was so awesome. It was so much more accomplished than the WWF games on the SNES. I didn’t like it as much replaying it on an emulator years later, but I’d still probably buy toys from it now.
