Hi I recently purchased an item graded by a newish company Called figure grading based in the uk.
Just wondered if any one had purchased from them Before?
I’ve just received one I sent off and comparing it to My ukg and afa graded
Items it Spot on and came with a free certificate and cost me £26 (I don’t get why certifications are so expensive from these company’s)
I need to get more hasbros graded not sure who to use but may use them again.. if anyone wants picture comparisons I can provide

I just got one of ebay in a display case Price was reasonable and sits very nicely along side hasbros Card is just slightly bigger than hasbros but only slightly www.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED.uk/itm/Wwf-Wcw-Nick-Aldis-Figure-Chella-Toys-Carded-Hasbro-Mattel-Type-With-Case/373456887610?hash=item56f3c3df3a:g:wrcAAOSwBWZgJVFU

Japan has many toy stores specializing in selling vintage figures. Just a note to say i purchased item from japan and quality is spot on Some great deals on hard to find figures out there with out paying silly UK prices

Hi all not posted for a while,
I’ve seen recently lots off wwf hasbros being sold from Japan, Historically I’ve never seen any come from there yet now it Seems an abundance of figures including wcw uk exclusives.
What’s the crack, fakes or just why?
Ps any one need any plastic cases I still have some

How do you think the value of these Mattel will compare to the hasbro figures in the long term?

Tag Teams would be the best, but don't think we'll ever see them. Those were my favorites from the original Hasbro run. More would be great and I wish there were enough demand for Zoloworld to produce a case for 2 packs. I do have cases for tag team hasbro if you need any

I'm a big fan of the new Retro's. I completely agree that the nostalgia is not at the same level but Mattel have given us something to remind us all of collecting such figures. I would have to agree that the Warrior figure, for me, isn't quite at the same level of say, a Series 2 Warrior of the Hasbro line, however, it is in keeping with this new Retro collection. The Rocks legs are too short as well! I'm really looking forward to displaying the Retro's, although the card and bubble isn't of the same quality as the Hasbro's, which is probably the biggest downside for me. Can't wait for Series 3, though, and fingers crossed for a ring and other surprises! I do wish that the cards were thicker and the artwork was more fun. How about a series 3 that had one or two Tetons of the sport that never made the hasbro like a big daddy may be Planck and white card!! Or a tagteam heart foundation agin not in the hasbro a Am fine with card and bubble I like the look and the fact there not in every shop adds a spice to the line for me

I'm hoping to upgrade my Hasbro / Retro figure cases to the Zoloworld cases, which seem to be the best on offer for both of these lines. Does anyone know the best way to get these as a collector based in the U.K.? The postage costs on Zoloworld's website make this a pretty difficult route. I also assume import costs are added to the final total, as well, so this is a no go. How have other International collectors acquired these? Are there any collectors Stateside looking to move a bunch of these on? I'm looking for 100+, ideally. I still have cases for moc hasbro Moc tag team And mic Mattel retro

Funskool figures i believe are a better collectors piece than a mail away figure,
Which makes me wonder how much my ultra rare funskool ultimate warrior is worth?

R.i.p Paul Bearer. I don't know why they never made a Hasbro figure of you.
