That’s an amazing collection. I think the Galoobs were my favorites when I was a kid. They fit in so well with my Hasbros, too. But, I was a much bigger WCW fan growing up.

I'd be happy if some company made Galoob-style figures now (not that one company that makes like 20 pieces of each figure). They're simpler to make than Hasbro-style figures, and more appealing than Bend 'Ems to me.

Yeah true mate, I rare saw many galoobs growing up just the common ones really, I remember having the ring tho, thought was cool but quite noisy to play on 😆, was harder to watch and follow WCW over here in uk until nitro came around like 1996 or so but then the old school stuff was long gone and then few years on toybiz started making them which I do think are cool, prefer them over the Jakks Wwf stuff.

Thanks mate, I have some spares also if you needed any?, I’ve got the ring there also still with the hammer 🔨 and a few the larger ones of Sting & Lex.

I don't have the complete set, bit I've got a lot of them. It's criminal how short the timeline was for them, and how many guys we didn't see get the Galoob treatment.

Yeah lol think wasn’t that around 91/92?, I remember the videos you could get until early 90s then stopped.

Yeah I would liked the Diamond Studd that we nearly got PN News looked quite a vibrant one also 😂

I used to love going into my local video shop and seeing all of the WCW/WWF videos which were oddly placed amongst the Transformers and Thundercats tapes, right near to the Horror videos, lol.

Aye I remember we had a blockbuster and they had most the WWF PPVs from 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, I use to rent out Sunmerlsam 92 a lot lol 😆 and the 89 and 90 survivor series, I think we use to rent them and use two vhs players to record onto a blank to save renting it again and again. I know Global video started to get ECW videos from 98/99 & WCW videos from 99/2000

I remember when I first saw those unreleased figures only around 10 or so years ago, I'd had absolutely no idea they ever nearly existed. There might have been more lined up that we'll never know about. I didn't even know OSTFM figures existed til about 15 years ago, lol. Never once saw them in the UK. I remember seeing a picture of Vader and assuming it was a Galoob, and Vader being one of my favourites, I was excited. I eventually got Vader, one of my prized possessions to this day, an excellent figure.

Yeah I never saw them over here, I’ve not got many fo those ones but they quite cool, the large ones Vader yeah that’s cool one & the sting in jacket, I had a signed Knobbs nasty boys tag pack once and didn’t realise how big the cards were with the tag teams inside lol, I’ve still got a few I’ve got a weird vibrating Sting lol 😆, my favourite are Alex Wright & Sarge Craig Pitman 👍

I know Global video started to get ECW videos from 98/99 & WCW videos from 99/2000 I weirdly don't recall seeing many, if any, wrestling videos in the shop after around 95/96. I used to rent literally any wrestling videos the shops had, lol. My first taste of ECW was through friends at school in the late 90s doing exactly what you did, copying videos on double recorders 😄 Then when I eventually got cable I managed to see the ECW show they had on Bravo late at night.
