Brooklyn Brawler would be a very cool addition.
Randy Colley version of Smash to go with the LJN Ax.
Holding out hope one of these companies does the Moondogs even though they were used as enhancement talent, they were the team during the Mr Wonderful heel turn on Hogan.
If they branch out into supporting characters Jack Tunney would be great as he fits in that era.
Leaping Lanny with robe accessory as a 2 in 1 to make him the Genius.
With hitting the NWA stars the Koloffs could find there way into the line?

I’m likely in the minority on this, but I’d actually want a “Leaping” Lanny holding a frisbee more than “The Genius,” personally. |

The PoP were great looking but they aren't sold separately (a la Demolition). I sadly had to pass. If they do future tag teams, I hope they do come separately. As a strictly MIBber, shelf space is tough enough for the singles, can't imagine having to house a tag team. They are sold together but they are packaged separately. You can always sell the one you didn’t want and likely it’d pay for both the figs lol. Did not realize that. That they were sold as a combo, I thought they were packaged altogether. I only want Warlord, who is likely less desirable than Barb! Glad I chimed in prior to the window closing. As always, A.) thanks for clarifying and B.) thanks for how interactive you are! |

I was thinking it would be the opposite, that you were satisfied with Warlord’s LJN. I’d guess the Barbarian especially, of the two, would have higher secondary market value, given he was missing from the original line. |

As a kid, I just thought he looked way cool with his gear and head shaved in that manner and was just huge. On the other hand, Barb didn't really do it for me. I felt he was overshadowed by Warlord in (then) WWF and then by Haku in WCW. |

I got the chance to meet him last December at an indy show, and he was super nice and down to earth- and still “larger than life!” He was awesome with my 8 year old daughter too, who made a drawing of/for him! Made a life-long memory for me, that’s for sure! |

Not sure if anyone asked or I may have missed it, but is Muta in play for this line?

But since they already stated Rock n Roll Express are coming, and have said numerous times not wanting to make talent wait long, I’m guessing they are part of this 6. |

darkprophet..
I’ve been reading all your posts and Im right there with you. Im only really interested in the WWF ljn era figures too. i only watched WWF as a kid. I had no interest in WCW etc. However i’ve still been buying all of the non wwf BRGs in case I change my mind on wanting them. I Might sell the non WWF guys eventually or I may just keep them all. I just wanted the option.

By my “rules,” the hardest ones to possibly pass on would be the potential Road Warriors/ Legion of Doom. I was a HUGE fan of theirs in the 90’s WWF, even went as Animal one year for Halloween. BUT they don’t fit my current collection. Honestly not looking forward to that potential preorder dilemma! |

My wallet tells me i should be pickier…lol I live in Canada so with shipping and then customs these are pretty pricey for me. The problem is they just keep getting better and better with each series. It makes them hard to pass on. |

I just wanted the option. I felt the same as you as I also only want WWF LJNs, but dang it, that leisure suit Flair was impossible to pass up. No way would I have purchased ring gear Flair, but that leisure suit is the epitome of stylin and profilin. |

I love all this back and forth enthusiasm for this line and respect for how we all collect the line. Personally i need ring gear flair to fight my steamboat, hogan and savage and soon to be dusty! |
