Hey Ringside Collectibles, I just paid € 16.95 for shipping 2 (!) rubber guys… this means less than € 9 per figure… I really enjoyed that purchase. Cheapest shipping rate for the Ultimate Usos is USD 42.15! This is getting out of hand…

Question: Are the chases going out as a set? It'd look mismatched if someone were to get, say for example, a standard Smash and a chase Ax paired up.

Was thinking the same, i really dont want one of each. I dont think the chase program works in the scenario. All it does is force us to go to ebay and fill someone else’s pocket if we run into a one of each or just simply want one or the other or both versions. I say open up the orders to either versions. I personally would have just ordered both sets and know the money is going directly back to who it should |

The chases are 1 in 3! I can't afford to take that gamble!

Kind of regret having ordered only 1 set. Should’ve taken 3 or 4 of each to secure both variants. I hate this OCD. 😂

We found that people were overwhelmed…feeling they had to buy them both. And it led to LESS sales. Instead of more. |

I definitely want to see a Barbarian, POP version, and then another in his solo look, and then also The Warlord in his solo look, hell make an accurate POP Warlord too. I know it's probably not possible, but why didn't Gorilla Monsoon ever get an LJN???

Who do you REALISTICALLY want to see in the line??? I’m hoping to fill holes in my LJN collection. I’m all-in for mid-late 1980’s WWF figures: Barbarian from POP (plus a POP Warlord if possible), Bushwhackers, Dino Bravo, Bad News Brown, “The Natural” Butch Reed, would all be strong wants for me. |

Rick Rude was a terrible figure and would definitely need an upgrade.
Personally the LJN line feeld pretty much complete. They somehow managed to get most of the core characters of the time. The few missing guys such as Barbarian and Smash (check) would be great.
Roadwarriors are always a great a addition to every line.

Who do you REALISTICALLY want to see in the line??? Would love to see the almost ljns in this line. Bad news brown, brother love, barbarian, bushwackers. Really anybody during that ljn time would be great. Can we request no chase when ordering ax and smash? I ordered and while the chases are cool i definitely prefer the original versions |

What about NWA or AWA guys? Are any of you interested in having some of those guys in the form factor?

And for the sake of display space and cost, I’m personally keeping my collection to 80’s WWF. I would be VERY interested in re-doing LJN guys who weren’t done well or have more iconic looks- such as Hercules (please?), Don “The Rock” Murraco, Tito Santana, Dynamite Kid, “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan, King Haku, One Man Gang and Akeem. |

Thanks to everyone who ordered! They’re still up for a few more hours! Matt & Brian are on a boat somewhere…should be coming ANY day! Marty and Up for pre-order in August. Who do you REALISTICALLY want to see in the line??? I would love to see Lanny Poffo in this line. I always felt he was missing an LJN. Not sure if he is possible since he has a PowerTown deal, and the Genius attire may be off limits, but even an 80s babyface Lanny would be great. Another great choice would be an updated Hercules. We got long-haired Hercules in his entrance gear but never a short-hair version with trunks and a chain. The Rougeau Brothers were another missing piece that would be perfect in this line. 1989 heel Fabulous Rougeaus would be awesome, especially if we get another team like The Bushwhackers for them to face. And if we're completing tag teams, what about a Tom Zenk to go with the Rick Martel to make the Can-Am Connection? Or if Martel is available, a heel Model version would be a nice addition. |
