Just to point out, I am feeling like I will update the list annually for new releases. The reason I say this is that it shouldn't be too hard to go on Ringside's site and see what figures have come out for the past year, maybe a few are missing, but the majority will be on there. I am still crowdsourcing and seeing if there are many others I have missed out, luckily, looks like there isn't so far. I understand only updating annually for new releases, but are you going to add in the ones you've missed anytime soon? |

I'm hoping to find some more people to plug it. |

Wow, I never realized that the horrible headsculpt Shane figure (which I have nicknamed "The Abomination" in recent years) was actually his first. I had always thought the KOR Corporate one was his rookie figure!
Now that leaves me with the dilemma. Do I get "The Abomination" and tuck it away in a crate so I "have it" but never have to look at it? Or do I just say "It's dead to me" and continue to pretend that the KOR Corporation figure is his rookie figure.
The OCD in me says the first, but the Shane fan in me says the second. Choices choices.

Wait. Hang on. Back up.
Through further investigation, is there any chance that the "Survivor Series" set listed as released on 01/01/1999 was actually released later? Or is that just a placeholder?
I only ask because according to my research (and memory) Shane didn't even debut the "X-Punk" attire until February 1999. So unless the WWE(F) was in the business of making spoilerific figures? Then that might not be the right date for that set release.
Of course, I could be wrong, 1999 was a long time ago, so my memory's a bit foggy. But I know that the title match against X-Pac wasn't till February, and I swear that's when he started wearing that shirt.
Also, it seems a bit weird that they would start with that headsculpt, switch to the younger, cartoonish headsculpt, then switch back to "The Abomination" a year later. Not saying they wouldn't it just seems weird is all.

Not saying they wouldn't it just seems weird is all. Due to the sheer size of this document, all of the dates are estimated. The amount of time it would take to go through and look at attires on TV and then match it up to each wrestler would be an insane amount of work. The method I used was kind of guessing, for example. if there were say six Ruthless Aggression series released in a year, I would just divvy them up into Jan, March, May, June, Oct, Dec etc. I wouldn't put it past Jakks to switch headsculpts like that, though is possible the date could be off. |

Oh. OK. Makes sense.
I was just wondering is all. I wouldn't put it past Jakks to mess around with the headsculpts either, but I was just going over the list looking for all the Shane figures and found that discrepancy. I'm going to go ahead and assume then that I was correct about which figure was his rookie fig, and go from there.
The list, in general, is an invaluable resource though. Ton of work here. Thanks for that. Now, if only there was some way to create a massive catalog/database website with every figure on this list featured with MOC/Loose images. That would be epic!

Thanks man, I'm looking at ways to promote my checklist. I am hoping to get it published as a e-book on Amazon and Google at some-point this year for free. Hopefully it will come up in search results when people are searching for figures. I just want it to be seen by the thousands. I'm completely burned out with wrestling figure projects for the time being, ha, though I think an interactive database like that would work for individual wrestlers. For example, building a site with loads of wrestlers names, and then click on the names and see all of their figures. With the major WWE lines, there should be loads of good quality photos out there, but as I discovered with the rarer stuff (especially Japan) it's hard to find good quality images of figures. If someone on here has got the gut, I'd be super happy to see my checklist get a database counterpart. |
