Since we’re sharing, I ended up getting a new Jakks Monster Ring for a good deal, bought new ropes and LJN style stickers. Now this set-up is coming together to my liking! ibb.co/PF9R2vxRing looks fantastic! Do all your BRGs need stands? I know the first few series are a bit iffy, I hope they've fixed that moving forward. My Macho and bloody Flair stand really well. I'm sure Magnum will stand great with those big old cowboy boots. |

Thanks! No, probably just Demolition. I just have them and the Bulldogs with stands for now, because they are spread out and have nothing to lean on… yet! Powers of Pain will fill things out, then Bad News, Islanders, etc! Keep em coming! |

This may be a little behind but I just received my second BRG figure, a 1/1000 bloody Ric Flair … as others have said, these figures are truly masterpieces & a dream come true for fans like myself who have wanted NWA -JCP figures for decades & now along with Magnum, my JCP collection has jump started in the right direction majorly with big Dust up next … keep’m coming, love these!! Also, I’m hoping the packaging for BRG is never changed because it’s one of a kind … please keep it the same through each series the way Jakks did with the CS Samsies! Lol my second BRG is bloody Naitch too and man I love it. Hoping Magnum gets to Canada soon so my local supplier can finally ship it to me. JCP collection is going to look phenomenal this time next year! PoP, Dusty, Road Warriors, Arn & Tully, RNR express, Harley! Oh update on that revitalized ring I bought last week. Replacement ropes came in: Where'd you get the ropes from? |

When you say maybe even 5, does that possibly mean one person but multiple gimmicks? The 5th hasn’t signed yet That’s pretty big news. I know you guys have been kicking the idea around for a while but I really look forward to the day when you guys do a MajorFest (or whatever you end up calling your big event) just to see what you come up with for a store and display area for this line. Not being totally limited by space, I can just imagine a Hall of Fame style display for some of these or a bigger and better version of that WWF Hasbro case that was at the WMX Fanfest. Not that you guys want to lose your ass on such an event, but how awesome would it be to walk into the convention center and be able to shop a single isle made to look like Toys R Us or KB Toys? An entire isle with Big Rubber Guys on one side, Major Bendies on the other. End caps with exclusive merch or sale items. People would line up and pay just to live that experience again. |

Sounds like the premise from Jurassic Park. |

All you'd need then is Cardona walking around the floor with a cane going, "We've spared no expense." Change that: Myers actually has the cane to use. |

LMAO you’re on a roll. Myers used the cane but I think Matt could make it work better as an actual gimmick. He just recently transitioned to “The Complete” but I could also see him one day doing “The Creator” or “The Visionary” where he adopts the Dr. John Hammond look. Maybe not with the white hair and beard but with the white shirt and perhaps the hat. Instead of using a belt shot during his matches, he can hit them with the cane. Instead of a mosquito inside, there can be a Little Rubber Guy. Replicas can then be sold at the merch stand and future MC figures can come with the accessory. The cane with something suspended inside actually works well for something to talk to during promos, and to focus on during photo shoots. Probably far easier to travel through the airports with as well.  |

Shouldn't it be a faux Greg Hasbro?

Wonderful news! Thank you SO much! Good thing I bought the Jakks Monster Ring for display! So does this mean that there will be group of Nwa names signed like this at some point in the near future?? … Understand that while us Nwa fans might be the minority, still we’re not all an old school Wwf fanatic & there should be a continuing balance of power for both Nwa & Wwf collectors of BRG, now there’s been a pretty decent balance of the two promotions thus far in my opinion but it needs to remain that way … otherwise, that’s how people (like myself) lose interest & you lose customers … now I could be wrong, but being a smaller business still getting established, I would think that every single customer’s feedback & purchases would be valued of equal importance |

One at a time. In bulk. We just don’t reveal them all. What’s the point? Have people waiting for 2 years? |
