Ok, so I’m diving into the Major Pods, and started listening to their Rewind 2nd Anniversary episode. Cardona goes into how he got an LJN unreleased Killer Khan. After hearing his story, if they can redo Killer Khan like they’re doing for Slaughter, how it was “meant to be,” I’m in!

Not asking for names, but are at least a few of these listed realistic possibilities? Also, I noticed the “Dark Side of The Ring” logo next to the Jannetty order on the merch site. Will this be on his packaging? I know his episode brought recent attention to him, and I appreciate the show, but I’d rather have his figure be a reminder of the wrestler than the man, if that makes sense (ie, not include the show logo). Thank you! |

I Wish there was more iron mike sharpe, barry Horowitz and young stallions love on these wish lists. They would fit right in the line and not under the realm of possibility since guys like sd jones and ted arcidi, corp kirschner and outback jack were all made. Id love more undercard/jobbers to fill gaps
Dino bravo
Dr D shultz
Boris zhukov
Mike sharp
Horowitz
Stallions
Jimmy jack and dory funk
Missing link
Rougeau brothers
Conquistadors
Powers of pain
Brother love
Bushwhackers
Bad news brown
Killer khahn
Oliver humperdink
Ronnie garvin
Sam houston
Ron bass
Danny davis
Butch reed
Tama
Wendi richter
Rockin robin
Moolah
Moondogs

The ones that are really missing are the US Express. Please make it happen!

Wow! Great comparison shots! This line is an amazing love letter to the LJNs! Head and shoulders above the other LJN style figs out there! |

It would be nice to hear some of the behind the scenes stories of some of the signings from either the Bendies or the BRGs. Each guy is probably approached differently (especially those from the older eras). It’s always fascinating to know how people react be it enthusiastically, skeptically, or if it is just an easy payday and nothing more. Obviously the “all business” types won’t make for the best tales but the others could be fun to hear hear about.

Just a heads up, Kanik is on the Fully Poseable Podcast this week to discuss the line.
He did a previous appearance that was a GREAT episode, and actually gave a pretty good number of behind the scenes stories.

After that wild dark side of the ring episode, I want to know Marty Jannetty’s thoughts on absolutely everything. Conrad needs to get that guy a microphone asap |

About the Big Rubber Guy he had this confused and disturbing (typical Marty Jannetty) comment on his Facebook page: Quote by Marty Jannetty 06-30-2023 |

I would love an US Express of Windham & Rotunda -- but also would really like a Widowmaker Barry Windham. That's obscure but it sounds like MWFP has some good options ahead of them. Can't wait!

More retro lines need Barry. Can't believe none have signed him up yet.
