Simple, the Rock & Roll Express … we’ve already been told on here that they’re coming this year 🤷 I had thought they would be the “old school” talent in this wave until the “orgasm” comment. But with that, doesn’t that imply it has to be a surprise? Like you said, Rock n Roll Express were already announced as coming this year. Kyle Peterson, on today’s Weekly Toy News video, pitched Dino Bravo and King Haku for this line. Now *that* would excite me! I don't know, Jim Cornette did say one time that RnR would have more s*x on the way to the ring than most people had in a year.

Wouldn't be mad about the Road Warriors since I have non in my collection whatsoever...Maybe The Brainbusters or Von Erics as alt choices.

Would the Brainbusters qualify to “orgasm” level? They make it under my rules as a WWF 80’s collector… even if I still link them more with NWA/WCW. Road Warriors is my guess, but Von Erichs would work too, especially after the hype of the movie.

When does the Major Pod record, Monday? I always begin listening on my work commute Fridays when it drops for free. If anyone hears the newest pod and Big Rubber Guy announcement before then, I’d appreciate it.
… and sorry if that comes across as cheap to not be a paid listener. I only budget so much to myself per month, and I’ve been spending most of that on Big Rubber Guys more often than not 😉

Maybe it could be Ole & Arn Anderson?? … but if it happens to be the Road Warriors I hope they’re in Nwa gear with spiked shoulder pads … I also hope it’s a different color face paint from the Legends seres 1 & the Asylum figures, not sure why that look is so “iconic”

I think he meant that specific paint. Hawk with the black Ultimate Warrior style paint with a blue stripe and Animal with the green spider. I get it, they had dozens and dozens of face paint designs. But, that specific look just became the defining NWA Road Warriors look. Similarly even though they had gold and blue pads as the LOD, that red look defined that era.

If you listen every week, early patreon listener or not, we love you! Thanks for the support!!! Thank you! Yep, I’ve been a weekly listener for the past year or so, going back and listening to the Rewind episodes too between the new ones. The balance of figure news, wrestling inside info, and fandom have made it a must listen (or watch on YouTube) every week for me! You are the rare combination of wrestlers, toy collectors, wrestling fans since childhood, and now making wrestling figures! For a lot of us, you’re truly living the dream!

Yes I was talking about the face paint … if it’s them, I hope it’s a different color/design

VERY tempting. But they don’t fit my WWF/LJN era collection timeline rules. I think I’ll opt out for my first whole wave since series 1. But still, well done! I’m very hopeful this wave creates the sales and attention this brand deserves!

Unfortunately it isn’t a different face paint color or design but they have still successfully captured another $100 of my money!!

Just wondering if i need to get a extra set to customize or not lol

Need a removable spike now so they can take Dusty Rhodes' eye out.

Will definitely be getting these but would prefer the red and black attire with corresponding face paint. Hoping for a variant, if so I'll get both sets
