Finally picked up Vader for $30. I had been holding out to get him cheaper, but prices seem to keep going up, so finally just pulled the trigger. My realistic want list is down to Animal, Taz, and still need to get Honky Tonk and Dreamer. Luckily I got Vader in a Mystery Micro Brawler Grab Bag (5 figs for $25.99)  Then again, I don't actively collect them. |

I know the "Mind of the Meanie" is a 2-pack with Blue Meanie & Josh Shernoff, but with Blue Meanie and Nick Aldis on the way I can't help but thinking of the roster for the videogame RetroMania Wrestling: Road Warriors, Austin Idol, Nikita Koloff, Tommy Dreamer, Hollywood Nova, Big Stevie Cool, Colt Cabana, Matt Cardona, Bryan Myers, Zack Sabre Jr., Jeff Cobb, Warhorse (& Johnny Gimmick)... Oh gawd please don't let the first figures of ZSJ and WARHORSE be in this crapty style. The Hasbro-style will always be awesome! |

Figure looks great! I’m not very interested in Nick Aldis as a character, but I’d say they’ve hit a home run on the execution. If they can get something going with some currently-unsigned 90s WWF/WCW names, I’ll buy. Maybe even a couple of ECW. For example: Big Poppa Pump Tammy “Sunny” Sytch Chris “Skip” Candido Road Warriors without shoulder pads Rob Van Dam Raven Savio Vega Al Snow We already have a Blue Meanie on the way from them in 2021 so those are very possible! We NEED more Candido figures in any form. (And figures that are made WELL unlike another company might I add  ) I know the "Mind of the Meanie" is a 2-pack with Blue Meanie & Josh Shernoff, but with Blue Meanie and Nick Aldis on the way I can't help but thinking of the roster for the videogame RetroMania Wrestling: Road Warriors, Austin Idol, Nikita Koloff, Tommy Dreamer, Hollywood Nova, Big Stevie Cool, Colt Cabana, Matt Cardona, Bryan Myers, Zack Sabre Jr., Jeff Cobb, Warhorse (& Johnny Gimmick)... |

There’s a couple of Marvel TNA rings which come with an exclusive AJ (one red, one green). The problem I have is which tna figures fit in with these rings / exclusive AJs? I’ve looked through the marvel tna figures and they vary a lot in terms of how they look, size etc My man, none of the TNA Marvels work with the ring, you can’t even do a suplex without the feet hitting the other rope. The Jakks ring was way too small also. You'd think it would work for Christopher Daniels and Shark Boy. |

That's the original LA Parka who still wrestles as LA Park now. Right, arena figure then and AAA estelares by Fotorama. |

It was a Shotguntoy exclusive. Originally the figure came bagged. That picture is from a Yahoo! Japan Auction. Any idea on his w many were produced? Which all wrestlers from FMW got one? And average value, it's highly over priced where it's listed now. Thank you for the info though. Production numbers aren't very high (500 tops): Terry Shimozawa's Shotguntoy was a Japanese online store specialized in Japanese wrestling figures, Tiger Mask figures and other animé wrestling figures as well as selling records for his rockabilly band Terry & Slang (where he sang as Shotgun Terry). Even though it was an online store it had useful information on the figures in Japanese. In the early '80s Terry had been involved with Popy; he had designed the mini catapult rings that came with the Tiger Mask World II 2-packs. Since his site went down (about 3 years ago) I don't know what he's been doing. Shotguntoy exclusives were: Masked Angel Rosetta FMW: 01 Kodo Fuyuki 02 Tetsuhiro Koroda 03 Kintaro Kanemura 04 Tadahiro Fujisaki (aka Fugofugo Kameji, Fugofugo Yumeji, Fujizaki, Kamekichi, Tadahiro Fujisaki) |

LJN: probably Harley Race's crown.
Hasbro: probably Mountie's cattle prod.

These 5" deformed figures are pretty expensive if you don't pre-order them.
Personally I was interested in Andre the Giant (every variant) and Riki Chōshū, but not at these aftermarket prices; they're not vintage figures.
Asuka has 2 variants: the kabuki mask and the green mask.

When looking at names on a Star Toys box, possibilities are: "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka, Texas Tornado or Bret "the Hitman" Hart. However, the only known Star Toys WWF figures (as in seen boxed) are: the Big Boss Man, Jake "the Snake" Roberts, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior. Also known; Star Toys released NFL-players in this style. Where can I find pics of series 2 with the molded hair? I know Ryder has a set but I couldn’t shuffle through hundreds of ig posts. So far I only know of Big Boss Man and Jake "the Snake" Roberts with molded hair. Jake is on page 1 of this subforum. |

He still has a collection, I guess. Last I checked he just sold doubles or loose figures replaced by carded ones. |
