    First time I remember seeing these was on tv on WCW Main Event when Gene Okerlund and Bobby Heenan hosted the studio show and they had the figures on the desk. Probably early 95

  • @justafanofnerdculture7602
    @justafanofnerdculture7602 Год назад +1

    I remember seeing these figures, for the first time, on an episode of WCW Saturday Night, some time in either '94 or '95. I remember instantly getting LJN vibes when I saw them. I remember some kids in the audience were holding Sting and Hogan figures and they looked awesome! I'm a big fan of these figures because they are similar to the LJN's, which is my all time favorite action figure line...period. I only wish that we could've gotten more characters instead of all of those repaints though. This was fun to watch because there aren't many videos covering these figures.

    I'm sure you get this all the time but these genuinely were my childhood. The blue tights and yellow boots Sting was the first wrestling figure I ever got as a child when I was 4 years old. I also had purple tights Flair, two Hogan's (both complete with WCW title belt), Johnny B. Badd wearing white with blue trim, both Harlem Heat wearing black, both nasty boys wearing black, Vader, The Giant, Kevin Sullivan wearing black, and Jimmy Hart (caucasian version) along with the shitty ring that had Sting and Vader figures standing in the ring on the box cover.
    I pretty much had every osftm hard figure made except for Savage, Craig Pittman, Alex Wright, the Blue Bloods & Big Bubba Rogers.
    I quit buying them when they switched to the articulate figures in 1997, plus I kinda switched to watching WWF mostly too.
    Also I had damn near every WWF early series bendem (from before they switched to having the scratch logo on the card, I forgot which series that was) and all of the first two WWF jakks Superstars series and series three "Bad Guys", along with two new generation era Monster Rings, with red white and blue ropes.
    God, my old man spent a fortune on all that shit. I still have them all at my Ma's house somewhere. I gotta go find all that stuff...
