Sorry think I missed info on this; When Is the blue flair available to order and is he an upcoming evergreen? He was previously announced as an upcoming evergreen, with “big gold” belt. But I don’t believe a timeframe was announced yet. |

Magnum was finally delivered today, when I pulled it out of it’s shipping box I was legit blown away by just how nice it really is … it’s my very first BRG figure & the first time I’ve seen one in person … I must say it’s impressive & was well worth the wait … now bring on the orders for Dusty, the Road Warriors & of course, my own personal holy grail, the Rock & Roll Express in November … Awesome job guys … Keep Rockin!!

My Magnum arrived & is my first BRG too and it is so cool to have him. In a couple months Dusty should be here to complete Americas Team. Road Warriors after that. Next year RnR & Arn & Tully (hoping they are in JCP nwa attire not Brainbusters Wwf but I see the demand for both.) to go along with many Flair options. I thought Powertown was going to be the modern line to give me a mid 80s JCP line but BRG are getting them out. It Will Be awesome to have them all on display sometime next year |

I thought Powertown was going to be the modern line to give me a mid 80s JCP line but BRG are getting them out. It Will Be awesome to have them all on display sometime next year Personally I’m hoping for figures of Tully & Arn that are universal & have no distinctive shirts or jackets, just them in their basic wrestling gear which was pretty much the same in both promotions … that way fans of JCP ( like ourselves ) can enjoy them in our collections as well as everyone who’s wanting the Brainbusters in theirs … honestly I probably won’t order them if they’re labeled with the Brainbusters logo … other JCP names I would love to see as BRG figures in the future include Barry Windham, Nikita Koloff, Ole Anderson, Brad Armstrong, JJ Dillon, Ivan Koloff, Ronnie & Jimmy Garvin, Manny Fernandez, the Mulkey Brothers & the Midnight Express ( Eaton with either Lane or Condrey either one would be fine with me ) just to name a few … some of those are long shots I know but hey so were the ones that are being made now just a few years back right? … I’m also really looking forward to Bruiser Brody who has been mentioned as coming up in a future series |

Rock-Is-KingYeah, I agree and do think it would be fairly easy to make Arn & Tully in gear that works for both wants. If in brainbusters jackets then I won’t get them either. Yeah, a lot of good names there & I’m excited where things go. Looking forward to how Brody turns out. As toyetic as it is, I hope he isn’t in the fur vest. You’d think he wore it every match for the number of figures made that include it. I think he didn’t wear it more than he did based on the many matches I’ve seen.

just got my first BRG - evergreen pink trunks Macho Man and.....I'm hooked! haha well within reason. I'm a HUGE JCP/NWA/WCW fan so of course I've already bought bloody Flair (coming soon) and pre-ordered Magnum, PoP, Dusty, and Road Warriors, and as soon as my local comic shop makes him available, Harley! And I can't wait for evergreen blue trunks Flair  Even lucked out today and got a reasonably priced '85 Sling 'Em Fling 'Em ring that I've been cleaning up! Already ordered replacement ropes, really great condition for such an old toy. Next year is so heavily NWA-influenced it's going to be a great looking collection. Hits me right in the nostalgic feels |

My Magnum arrived today and I love it! This is the first BRG I have picked up since Demolition and I think the quality is improving. This one feels so much like an original LJN.
There was a time I would have never thought we'd see a Magnum T.A. figure and now I own two articulated ones (Mattel elite and PowerTown ultra), an LJN-style version, and soon a Remco-style version. What a time to be a collector!
I also never would have expected LJN-style figures of the 80s JCP roster but I couldn't be more excited to build this collection. Bring on Dusty, Flair, Road Warriors, RnR Express and more!

One of my favorite Macho King outfits. It could be an optical illusion but the right arm appears to be shorter than the left. Crown and scepter look really well paired with him: http://instagram.com/p/DAHmCHoRjja |

Just preordered my Macho King yesterday.
Im even more excited for it now after seeing this updated render.
The arm looks ok to me. I actually thought the right arm on the wsw macho looked a bit off though.
Why is Ric Flair not up with Macho King anymore for preorder?

Will the NYCC exclusives be only available at the Con or also online. Would be shocked if all 1,000 sold at the show
