Wrestle Mania Weekend Figure Reveals

Image
So the time has come, we have had the first reveals from Wrestle Mania weekend in Las Vegas. I won't cover everything because there was a lot, hopefully more to come, so, where do we start, oh I know......The Coliseum Collection. We all had seen the blurry images from the video featuring Steve Ozer a couple of weeks ago where it looked like there were two UE boxes with images that looked like Ax & Smash and that was the case as they were revealed official at WWE World on Thursday. Now, we're glad Demolition, or Bill Eadie & Barry Darsow, have Legends deals and we can get figures, I picked up the recent Elites even though I had the original ones and people were excited to get Ultimate Editions so here we are. As we know, the CC is supposed to be a love letter to the old LJN line, the first WWF figures and back in the day, Ax was released but Smash never was released which collectors of the time couldn't understand. Anyway, as these CC ones are a love letter to the LJ...

Ranking The Target ‘Exclusive’ Legends Ultimate Editions

Image
I saw an image on Instagram by FigVault of all the Target Legends Ultimate Edition figures that have been released so far so I thought a ranking of them would be good to do, as you know, I only do my ranking lists featuring figures I actually own and as i recently received the 'Phantom of the Opera' Undertaker figure I know have all 12 released in that series. Don't forget, in the infamous words of Kyle Peterson, this list can't be wrong as it's my list. I am sure you won't agree with the order of all the figures, you may agree on one or two here and there been it's unlikely you'll agree on the list as a whole so please feel free to hit me up on X or on facebook where this article will be posted on the Wrestle Figs UK page. It won't be an easy list, they are all very good figures really. So, here we go. 12. Yokozuna - We’ve had Elites of Yokozuna previously and because of the size of him and the torso choice they would have to use, when this Ultimat...

Rating the Monday Night Wars figures so far

Image
Good brother Geordie posted on the Wrestling Figures UK page (a great page along with Wrestling Toys Gaming United) for figure collectors to network, you can find them on facebook, that with 10 series of the   Monday Night   Wars figures now out and have been available in Smyths, in store or online so far, well, none of us (unless you have it sent from the US) have the Eric Bischoff from the latest series as it's delayed until towards the end of this month.  Anyway, the questions Geordie asked on his post, what is your favourite figure so far, what is your worst figure and who's winning the war based on the figures released, WWE or WCW? I didn't give my answers in the comments but did say I would do a blog on the subject so here we are. First, I will list my favourite from each series, I have all 8 series complete (except Bischoff as mentioned) with the chases but from the Greatest Hits figures, I didn't buy any of the first series because I have all the figures in that...

MY Rankings of the Monday Night Wars Ultimate Editions

Image
I  saw a post on Instagram mentioning all the Monday Night Wars Elites we have had, and I thought it would be good to do a blog with me listing them, I don't usually like doing ranking lists unless i personally have the figure myself and as it stands, of all the ones in this series that have been released I still don't have the Lex Luger (hopefully should have him Tuesday as of writing this) but i think I have seen enough images to  be able to add him in this list as of now. In the comments on that post someone suggested including the Outsiders, I can see the logic as of course, they were a big, no huge, part of the Monday Night Wars but the figures weren't actually released in that series, so I don't think I'll include them. Of course, if I did there are others I could then include like a couple of Rock's figures, Eric Bischoff or my favourite UE of all, the re-released nWo Hollywood Hogan and maybe there are others too so I will just stick with the six that ha...
