Most of the 80’s ones have multiple uses in the same attire.
Virgil for example wore that suit for a year or two, fairly certain Mania 4 and summerslam 88 off top of my head.

Ricky Steamboat is from Wrestlemania 4. Steamboat rarely wore black boots with red gear. He did wear that combo in a tag match with Hogan against Muraco, Fuji, and Valiant but his karate gi was black in that match.

Pretty sure American Made Hogan is a pre-Wrestlemania 1 look, but he wore different colors until around 1986 before he settled on red and yellow as his constant attire

Greg Valentine Legends + chase Ricky Steamboat legends series 1 Virgil Roddy piper hall of fame The rock e68 Hulk Hogan RSE Mr Perfect heenan4pack Andre in blue trunks with Afro (not red boots) Sgt slaughter legends 1 E2 Randy orton Hard to pick a specific date for a lot of these attires as guys back then didn't wear one attire for specific events. For instance, Greg Valentine wore the all yellow attire (chase figure) at Summer Slam 1989 and Royal Rumble 1990, however, I believe he was wearing a gold robe instead of the one that comes with the figure. For the black trunks with yellow boots, Greg wore this attire at multiple events like WM5, Survivor Series 89, Royal Rumble 91 (without the shin guard) and WrestleMania 7 (without the shin guard), however, he didn't wear the black robe with hearts. I think the only show that I have seen with him in the black trunks and yellow boots was a superstars show in August of 1989 vs Koko B. Ware. Ricky Steamboat seems to be from WrestleMania 4 though I have seen images of him in the red tights with black boots versus other wrestlers, so he probably didn't wear it just at WM4. Virgil wore that attire at a number of events from 1988-1991 as the bodyguard. He wore it when DiBiase purchase Hercules as his "slave" and when DiBiase unveiled the Million Dollar Belt for the first time on the Brother Love Show. Some of the PPVs he wore it on were Royal Rumble 88, Summer Slam 89, Summer Slam 90 and Royal Rumble 91. Roddy Piper wore that attire a lot from 1987-1992. Mr. Perfect wore the orange attire with the black back design in 1990, biggest event I remember him wearing this at was Royal Rumble 90. Not sure about the others.

Does anyone know the event for the basic Jake with yellow/purple tights? I don't remember him ever wearing tights like that, the closest would be the tights he wore when he DDT'd Ricky Steamboat on the concrete floor. They're not yellow but they are a very light green.

You know, reading this thread makes me miss the days when people wore attire more than once.
I mean, Yeah, I love some of the looks that Bianca Belair is rocking, but when you have a figure that is "This date and time only" it's a bit frustrating for me. I'd rather be able to have a figure that says "This is [This person]" rather than saying "This is [This Person] on [This exact date] during their backstage segment with [Other person]"
I love being able to look at my Custom Shane and going "That's a Corporation Shane" and not having to list an exact timestamp. Also, as much screeching and screaming as I see on here about stuff like "Give us Rollins Thanos Gear or else" and the like, plus how all these date specific attires never seem to be quite right (I'm staring you down, PPV Marvel Cosplay Attire #63), it sort of takes the fun of of stuff for me being a "one of every person" collector.
Probably just a me thing though.

The only photo I’ve ever seen of Andre with the fro, blue trunks, and black boots was the one from 1973 in Japan holding the trophy. That photo is readily available on these forums as I believe someone uses it as their profile pic. The issue with that attire is that his body was much thinner then, so that figure is still only accurate in the singlet and without the dodgy wig.
Hogan wore the ringside attire quite often after winning the title from Sheik, no specific date. I think 84-early 85 was the American Made era, but he also often wore all white during that period, and possibly even red trunks with white pads and boots (a la shirted LJN, only with the American Made shirt vs white Hulkamania, which I’ve never seen him wear).
Slaughter was pre-WWF
Piper wore that constantly
Valentine usually wore all black I think, but he’s definitely worn all yellow, and the non-chase matches the Hasbro, but I’m sure he wore the yellow boots with the black trunks. No date on that, but it looks right.
