What is the demand for them in that gear? To me, zero. I hope others disagree
Isn't that their normal attire from their heel run in the WWF? That was the gear/attire they wore during the Hasbro figure days. What attire did you want them in? |

Appreciate that. In the States. Jeez - 40 bucks for shipping. I feel for you guys across the pond trying to get your hands on so many exclusives and others only available here. No worries. Yeah it's pretty much what stops me from getting many figures, tbh, lol. I just can't justify the shipping. |

I actually think they look great, and I'm more interested in that attire than the Mountie versions, tbf. Again, though, at probably £100-120 a pop, I'm not gonna be buying them. Shame, as they'd go well with the Bulldogs. |

Tbf that's just my assumption based on what it'll probably be per figure plus shipping. One figure seems to be about £60-£65 with shipping so two would definitely be around the £100 mark and I really can't justify that. |

Not sure where you are getting your numbers from, but Rock and Roll has had every single figure from this line for between 30 and 39 quid, and thats free postage.

I've not seen all of his figures being sold by R&R, I've seen a few, none that I'm interested in buying. Mo is currently £34, I'm guessing a 2-pack would be double. £70 isn't what I want to be paying, free shipping or not. Like Cheville said, Bulldogs were £50 and look to be far better quality, imo. ETA, they do seem to have most, if not all of them. Again, though, I'd have to see how pricey a 2-pack is. £50 is my limit, and I doubt they're gonna go for that. |

I disagree, the only other one they could have done is this and it isn't much different. I'm not sure what you would want other than maybe the vest/robes.  |

I’m not sure why but I always assumed the Bulldog and Diana set would be a two-pack. Just feels like it makes more sense that way.

Im confused by the comment too and thought exactly the same thing? Can't think of any other look that there would be for the rougeau's other than their early trunks instead of shorts? This is exactly the look they should have and sure all hasbro fans wanted. |

I guess I remembered them as having more colorful and vibrant attire -- these figures just don't look too exciting to me. Thanks for the corrections.

Speaking of color, he just posted the 1/150 Men on a Mission. At least I didn't have to pay $400 like the guy that outbid me a few days ago. That said Ouch that hurt. This has been one of the most expensive days in my life . . . . . . not joking. |

I don't think that'll be likely. People don't want the Diana, I think this is the only way he wasn't going to be sitting on tons of her. Lots of people will buy the 2 pack and sell her, not the other way around. And given 2ndary market prices for his existing figures, I'd say the Bulldog on his own would go for more than the preorder price. |

Now waiting for the actual gold and purple variant. |

And given 2ndary market prices for his existing figures, I'd say the Bulldog on his own would go for more than the preorder price. That was my thinking, too. He put Bulldog with Diana because he knew she wouldn't be a big seller, or even a decent seller. This is probably the only way to sell her figures and not have so many left over. I'm disappointed because I keep most of them MOC, and I only wanted the Bulldog figure, so the only way to get the Bulldog figure MOC is to purchase the 2-pack with a figure I don't want. So, I may just have to keep a figure I don't want to have a figure I do want, or I may just open it and keep the Bulldog figure and try to sell the Diana figure. However, I don't think the Diana figure is going to be a big want from anyone on the secondary market, so I might not be able to sell it. I would have much rather him package them on individual cards like his other releases but sell them together. This way you would still have to buy both figures, but the Bulldog figure would be on his own card without Diana. |

I'm a loose collector, so I'd have no use for Diana if I opened the pack up. On the flip side, if I keep them MoC then it kind of makes more sense having them on display together as a time capsule from SummerSlam '92... But I really wanted that Bulldog loose. 🤷 Carded with Daveyboy you can tell that it's Diana, whereas loose... It just looks like you're using a generic mediaeval Fisherprice peasant as a wrestling valet or something, lol. |
