Hey, For those that remember a short while ago, I said I sent away some figures to both The Honky Tonk Man and Dan "The Beast" Severn to get signed and I just got them back!! I sent the figures to The Honky Tonk Man and Dan Severn respectively and also included a money order for the cost to sign them and to ship them back. Here is the newly signed Jakks "Best of '98" Dan "The Beast" Severn figure:  Now, for whatever reason, maybe I included a bit too much money to ship them back and Honky wanted to make sure I got my money's worth or maybe he just didn't know where I wanted it signed, but Honky signed the figures in more than one area, which is cool with me. Once would've been sufficient but the more, the merrier, right? My new signed MOC CS Honky Tonk Man:    My new signed MOC Ringside Collection Honky Tonk Man:   Newly signed MOC W.W.F. Hasbro Honky Tonk Man:   For those that want to get their stuff signed by either Honky or Severn, your own item is $10 each to get signed and here is their contact information. Honky Tonk Man: eBay username "nobumps" Mailing information - Roy Farris 4665 E. Harwell St. Higley, AZ 85236 Dan "The Beast" Severn: Website info - www.dansevern.comMailing information- Michigan Sports Camps Attn: Mark Pennington 315 N. Fiske Rd. Coldwater, MI 49036 |

Wow that's really cool! Did you need to send a SAE or just money to ship it back?

Honky Tonk Man tends to sign in multiple areas so for those who sell them it takes more time to take off any personalization. He refuses to sign Hasbros in silver as it comes off really easily. He todl em all of this when I asked him to sign my hasbro and he did it for free but signed and personalized the fornt and back. I assured him I wasn't selling it but he told me he can never be too sure. This was about 2 years ago when he was still dead set on not doing a cs figure. I am seeing him this sunday and am torn on getting his cs signed as I like my csa figures to not be signed.
Congrats on getting them.
I live in Arizona and HTM has a nice home right on a golf course.

That is awesome that you got sigs. I saw that Severn at KB a long time ago and all I could think was that the average kid seeing that figure would think it was the most f@*#ing boring toy EVER MADE!!!
Just a guy with a mustache in black underwear. How #%#@y!

I'm still undecided if I should send in my CS HTM to be signed.
Great sigs Old School. HTM's looks great. Also, thanks for posting this information for others to get their items signed.

I got to work with Honky Tonk Man a couple of months ago, and it was truly one of the best experiences of my whole career. He was one of my favorites from that era, and he was as great as I had hoped. You never know what you're going to get when you work with a brought in name wrestler, but he was awesome. We drove him from our hotel to the building, so it gave him time to tell some of us stories (a few extra ones since we got lost for a minute). I got to hang out with him before the show, ref his match (where he bumped me), and afterwards at a nightclub and then Denny's. There were a lot of stories about him being difficult to deal with a couple of years ago, but he was a pleasure to work and hang out with.

I'm glad you guys like the figures. I think it's really cool that guys like Dan Severn and The Honky Tonk Man are willing to do this kind of thing for the fans. I only wish more past wrestlers would do it. Does anyone know any other past wrestlers that are willing to do this for the fans, where you can send stuff to get signed and have them send it back??
I'd love to send a few figures to get signed by guys like "Superstar" Billy Graham, Harley Race, Bruno Sammartino, Greg "The Hammer" Valentine, Rick Martel and Terry Funk if I could. If someone had their contact information, that would be great.

There were a lot of stories about him being difficult to deal with a couple of years ago, but he was a pleasure to work and hang out with. I think he finally realized within the past year or so that being bitter wasn't getting him anywhere. A few years ago, all anyone heard was how hard he was to work with. And now, all you hear about him are good stories. |
