When this line started, I told myself I wouldn't jump into it. $50 per figure was kind of high to me. But now, I've since bought Bloody Ric, Exclusive Sarge, and Halloween Andre and preordered both Road Warriors and RNR Express. I'll probably only stick to specific ones, but I'm in now. I do want to grab Dusty and PoP as well. Dang you Major, Dang you!

LJNs were just the big rubber toys everyone had in their yard when I was a kid, I never collected and never thought I would get any Big Rubber Guys. I currently own the Bloody Ric Flair, and have 6 other figures ordered. I am now regretting not getting Demolition when I had the chance, but what can you do. I dont have room for any of these as is but thats a problem for future me to figure out.
To add to this, this might be the most consistent wrestling toy line, not a stinker in the entire line up. Well done.

in regards to Demolition, I think it's a cash cow - who doesn't love them some Demolition!? I bet Major Bendies will revisit this well later (like LOD), now that the sculpting/painting/quality has improved overall, we might very well get new Demos in ring gear and new poses. At least I can dream! |

I’m also right with you guys. I can’t imagine passing on Brody as well. Guess we can call it a territory collection or just an exception. Lol YES! a territories collection lol whatever works to justify a Brody haha. I was so happy I came across some footage on youtube of the Bulldogs vs. RnR Express - in very similar attires for each team, so Kanik is doing his homework (and that justifies me having the bulldogs haha) That is the one & only time the Rock n Roll & the Bulldogs ever had a match, it was in the AWA in Kansas City in the winter of 89, one hour time limit draw, great bout … it is very similar attire for Ricky & Robert (and, if you look closely, Ricky had a shade of a beard in that match) but it’s not the match their figures are based on, their figure attires are based on a match they had with the Andersons back in the late summer/early fall of 86, I knew the exact look they were going for as soon as I seen the figure artwork LoL & I’m glad they put them in their shirts because otherwise Robert’s figure would have needed to have a white rib brace wrapped around him to be completely correct … there’s several photos & magazine centerfolds of them, before & during the match, with that version of the NWA tag belts & wearing the attire that their figures are wearing, I wish I knew how to post pics here but I’ve never been able to figure that out … On a separate note, I received my shipping notice for Dusty this morning, can’t wait to get it this week!! |
