I heard about these guys in relation to their Bull Nakano figure. I haven't found any info about their first series. Other than Brody. Curious about what else they've put out.

Brody is the very first figure he’s put out as a producer, he was doing only secondary market retail before that.
Brodys first then he’ll release the rest in waves of 3.
Confirmed is Bull, Terry Funk & Dynamite kid so far

It's only Bruiser Brody. I have him. Still need to find time to make decent photos and review him.
The line is called: Sofubi Pro Wrestling series 2, a retro-line in the spirit of Popy's Super Professional Wrestling-series from 1981.
Bruiser Brody was a test I guess.
Wave 1 will be: Dynamite Kid, Bull Nakano and TBA wrestler.
Wave 2 will be: Terry Funk and TBA Tag Team
Wave 3 will be: 3 TBA wrestlers
With Brody included that's 10 figures, just like Popy's Super Professional Wrestling-series from 1981.

I'm really looking forward to Bull Nakano, he did such a great job on Bruiser Brody in both the figure and packaging being identical to Popy.

Where’s do you purchase from? Although I’m thinking the postage to uk will kill |

I’m based in the U.K. and Brody was 49 dollars including shipping so about £37.40 on today’s PayPal conversion. I’m not sure if we are allowed to plug other stores here but it shouldn’t be too hard with the company name in the thread title  |

Hi guys, thanks for the interest!
Here's a few notes that might clarify the situation:
- There's no "Series 1" under our name. Bruiser Brody was our first figure. Our first 10 figures will be branded "Series 2" to pay homage and respect to the line we are heavily based on - Popy Super Pro Wrestler Series.
- Brody + 3 waves of 3 wrestlers will make a full set of ten.
- We post worldwide, UK Post is roughly US$20
Happy to field any more questions, and thanks to those who commented and have supported us!

Side note - The new Terry will have different trunks than the original one to differentiate from the original 1981 Popy Terry Funk, probably red trunks

This Line keeps getting better and better!!
I’ve honestly been more hyped for this & ZST’s line than these largely produced figuresz

JSD JSD (a man and wife team) are great to work with, and I found the price for Bruiser Brody (shipped to South Carolina) extremely reasonable. The figure is of very high quality (you can take it out and play with it and it doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart whatsoever) and comes on a sliding backer so you can display MOC or loose, depending on your preference. You can order from www.junkshopdog.com/ or contact him/her on their Twitter/Instagram to order.
I push people to order from JSD for the fact that they're not here to make a quick buck. Their passion for Japanese wrestling figures is tangible, and they've helped us keep the Japanese section of Wrestling Figure Database as accurate as possible. Sofubi Pro Wrestling is a love letter to Popy's Super Professional Wrestling from 1981, and I'd highly recommend checking it out--especially if you're like me and don't ever think you'll end up owning a genuine Popy. Really, really, really good figures that are a throwback to this iconic line.

Is Brody the only one released so far? Is it still available to purchase?
