According to the card bio Ivan Putski made his debut in 1990. And with Eddie even if they are only doing WWE titles they forgot his IC & Euro titles runs. Why can't they get these things right?

This is just stupid honestly. They are classics, they reflect a time, an era of a superstar. The figure is supposed to be a visual and informative piece. This ruins the whole conecpt of having a bio if it isnt going to be correct. The reputation for CS bios is tarnished from how I see it. Its not too hard to get it right.

I believe that Eddie's is highlighting only his Smackdown career.

As far as I can tell if they are just going on WWF stats nothing's wrong with Patera's or Johnson's. Well, actually Johnson's debut might be wrong as well. As his says 1966, but I've read articles where they say it was anwhere from 64-66 so I won't count that wrong as it's at least in the range.
I don't think there's been a CS set yet that hasn't had one error. You'd think that the person in charge of the bios would get them right.

I think it is a result of them putting little research into it of course. But i would rather have great looking figs than an acurate box.
I used to love that every hogan fig in hasbro days was 303 lbs. Even after he stopped jucing it up and he lost 50lbs.

i bet the guy who's in charge of the bios isnt even a wrestling fan he probably just asks someone "hey, when did this guy come out?" putski 1990? that is a HUGE error its not like rocky's which might be 2 years off.

The one that always irked me was Iron Sheik's...they included the fact that he won the Gimmick Battle Royal at WM17, but leave out his WWF title reign. Not like it was major or anything, he was only the most important transitional champion ever.

His whole WWF career before going to WCW he was announced at 302lbs(?) no matter how big or small he was. Talk about controlling your weight. Never gained or lost a lb. I guess that was better than NWA/WCW and Sting. That first match with Flair I think they said he was something like 270lbs yet when he wrestled the larger guys they listed him around 252 or 262lbs. Meanwhile he always looked the same size.

Do you think Jakks gets thier information from Wikipedia? That's always accurate
