Not trying to be a smartass but… why is there so much hype around this? Is it the packaging? I’m just asking because the movie was well, horrible. Is it a nostalgia thing? I mean I’m in my 30s, but I don’t understand this at all. It’s a generic looking Hogan playing a fictional character and Zeus. Zeus is kinda cool I guess. But I find the freakout over this perplexing. Oh well, I hope everyone who wants one gets one. There a lot of people who really enjoy bad movies. Some of them also enjoy bad wrestling. Zeus provided them with both at a young impressionable age

Catchy theme song... cool music video.... WWE hyped this movie big time.... so even though the end result was ..... questionable..... we were led to believe that this movie was the greatest movie ever made..... I remember Gorilla Monsoon & Bobby The Brain Heenan bickering about it on Primetime Wrestling.... No Holds Barred merch all over the place... THEN.... on Saturday Night's Main Event...... Zeus appeared & attacked Hogan.... leading up to the Summer Spectacular, Summerslam - Zeus & Savage vs. Hogan & Beefcake.... THEN they did another PPV Steel Cage Rematch.... "No Holds Barred - The Movie, The Match".... WWF pretty much revolved around this movie for 4-5 months, during what some of us consider it's greatest era.... The whole thing was a spectacle.... I like this set & hope I'm lucky enough to score one for my collection!

They're Ultimate Edition figures which always get more hype. People have been clammoring for Zeuz for I don't even know how long. Its a definitive set to own if you collect the golden era of the WWF.

Probably a combination of nostalgia for those of us in our 40’s and FOMO since it’s one of the toughest exclusives. I’m going to try but I don’t care if I miss and I also have the expendable income.

Zeus provided them with both at a young impressionable age No Holds Barred came out on my 12th birthday in ‘89. Made it a movie night event with my friends. Had just seen my first PPV (Mania V) in April, but had been watching Rock ‘n’ Wrestling and SNME for at least three years prior, so suffice to say I was the target audience and demographic. And it kicks ass! It’s ungodly awful, but it’s still fun especially if you love pro wrestling and crummy movies. And for me, it’s now a prime memory, so hurts nothing to commemorate the memory.

Is the movie available to stream (legally)? I can’t find it anywhere. No. There's a site/app called JustWatch where you can search movies and it'll tell you where you can stream or rent it. Doesn't even look like you can rent it online anywhere.

I made it a goal to collect any and every Ultimate edition release. So far so good. I thought about that, but as the line grows it’s too much. Plus I’m never ever going to buy a figure of someone I don’t like. The Miz is an example. I imagine he’ll get an ultimate years down the road. that lol As long as they keep them 2 to each series. With exclusives and legends usually 1 every other month. It really is not that bad! Just right now we saw everything coming out, but all those will be thoughout the year.
