I just ordered regular Hacksaw (so I’ll probably get my order later than others again, oh well). As for Ringside, I believe they surprisingly did not mark up the regular versions of Demolition, only the variants (by $10 if memory serves). But on a recent interview with Wrestling Figure News Podcast, Kanik said that Ringside ordered less of Series 3, so be prepared to order fast! Im hoping to snag another marty to custom into shawn as a placeholder or close enough option. Marty cant suffer the fate of being alone like ax was for 30yrs lol

Just ordered Magnum … he’ll be my very first big rubber guys figure … I’m hoping to build a pretty decent collection of Nwa guys as they make them, hopefully we’ll get a lot more old school names from this era in the future … I would have grabbed Flair if he hadn’t been in street clothes so here’s to hoping there is a version of him in ring attire later on … it would be great if these were packaged with the belts they held, like Magnum coming with the U.S title … perhaps it’s another idea to ponder for the future unless the likeness of the championships are not possible due to Wwe copyrights Yeah, would be cool to get a nwa collection going. Magnum is my first order too. LJNs weren’t big on belts besides hogan? So maybe down the line add belts but for nowI’m not bothered by the lack of belts.

Original LJNs had the black heavyweight title that came with Hogan, and the brown tag titles that came with (I think) all of the tag team two packs, regardless of whether or not they actually held the tag titles- which were just brown versions of the same belt that came with Hogan. I’m guessing WWE still owns the rights to that look, but I’d like a similar thing done for this line. Not a necessity though, to me.
Oh, and still no shipping notices for my Jannetty or Slaughter. Live in Chicago ‘burbs, ordered days 1 and 2. Sigh. Maybe after sending to those who ordered full sets, they sent the Flairs next? Hopefully soon!

Finally got my shipping notice for Marty Jannetty, was starting to believe I got scammed... But there's my shipping notice! So there’s hope for mine yet! I know it’s not a scam, I just worry my order got missed/canceled by their clerical error. I’m hoping I’ll be getting my confirmation(s) soon too!

I hope this comment is a joke, because if you really had that thought you got scammed you're incredibly weird for having that thought and that's ridiculous.

It took a loooooooooooooooooong time between my pre-order and shipping notice. Jannetty was supposed to ship in January, it's freakin' February; if this was Sal/Rush Collectibles everyone and their grandparents were yelling scam!!! Yes, I am exaggerating and joking and pointing out how ridiculous it is to claim that a smaller company automatically has to be a scammer!

From what I understand, the talent are compensated much better than they are for current Mattel WWE toys/legends deals. So hopefully this does help Jannetty out!
And I just got my shipping notice for Slaughter! Yay! Nothing for Jannetty yet though. I ordered them separately, a day apart, but I wonder if they still caught that and will ship them together.

Is there any other way to get that Flair? eBay or will any sites be carrying it?

Kanik may put a few up on their website after all orders are fulfilled. Matt and Brian will also probably have at least one to sell on their Whatnot streams. Your best bet is going to be the MWFP, auction websites, or maybe wait to see if RSC gets them in like they did the prior series.

That vintage style commercial should be fun! Hopefully it brings in a bigger audience for this line to keep ‘em coming for years to come! Now, about that ring…
Also, I got Jannetty today, despite never getting a tracking delivery alert. It’s great! The eyes details and soft feel are much improved from Demolition. My only *very* minor critique is that I think he should have been a little shorter, rather than roughly the same height as Demolition. Great figure, though. Super happy to have it! Slaughter is supposed to arrive Thursday. I can’t wait!

All customers who ordered Big Rubber Guys Series 3 from majorbendies.com orders have shipped. If you haven’t received tracking, I would recommend checking your junk folder.
We appreciate everyone’s support on this line. Matt Brian and I had a long day together discussing the future of the line and I think you guys will enjoy what we have coming out.

Thought about getting in on these but would want to be a completionist. Unfortunately second hand prices are too unrealistic for me. That said, also a sign these are doing well which is rad.

I received my Slaughter today, love it! Especially knowing it was supposed to be in LJN series 1, makes it a very cool addition. As a super-fan who grew up on the LJNs, this is my favorite line going today (admittedly, the Mattel Coliseum Collection would compete if they’d pump up how much they produce)! I can’t wait to see what else is in store for this year- hoping to not have to wait too long for the already announced Powers of Pain! I know more non-WWF talent are coming, as are repaints and alternate looks for Savage and Flair. That will save me money. But hopefully at least one unique LJN era WWF talent will remain in each series.
