On the eve of the Royal Rumble I'm here to share some recent pickups for my Wrestling Collection.
First up is a custom based off an unreleased Prototype of P.N. News
The next three all come from my favorite Hasbro Custom Figure Maker "Double_J_Collectibles"
First up is "Ultmo Drago", I was a big Dragon mark from his 90's run in WCW, never thought someone would make a figure as detailed as this though, all that is missing is Sonny Onoo to carry around his ten championship titles!
Next up is "The Sultan". Better know for gimmicks such as Fatu and Rikishi, The Sultan is a gimmick I love just for the back story of his tongue being cut out and having someone who might have been an even worse talker cutting all his promos, that being "The Iron Sheik". His biggest claim to fame was losing to then I.C. Campion Rocky Maivia at WrestleMania 13. I really don't remember much else about him before or after that match!
Next with have wrestling legend "Chief Jay Strongbow", he was retired a few years before I started watching wrestling as a kid, but from seeing some of his matches against Greg "the Hammer" Valentine from the late 70s dude was way before his time!
Speaking of legends next up is a bendie of "Big John Studd"
I been trying to finish off the set of the small bendie figures based off the Big Rubber LJN of the same Era. Finally found Big John last week on Ebay!
And last up are two masked figures I found from a seller from Mexico, not sure what the line was, but they are the same size as the Hasbro line so they fit right in with the collection.
That's all for now, enjoy the Rumble everyone . . .
Hopefully Cena Doesn't Win!
