Hi all, it's a bit after the fact but I felt I needed to write about the recent WWE/Mattel reveals. We had seen leaked lists and even the packaging of one of the figures, front and back, so we knew what to expect for the Legends line at least. The Legends line, well the original Legends line, is my favourite line from Mattel, some of them are really outstanding. Since the re-launch with series 7 some have been very good and some have failed to impress. So, these latest (series 12) ones saw Billy Gunn based on the DX invasion of WCW, Kevin Nash in nWo WCW gear, Junkyard Dog, which will also be the chase and the final one will be 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper.                     Follow me on twitter  @WrestleFigsUK The Gunn one is fine, it'll be the third Elite style Gunn released by Mattel, it's the first in a series of DX affiliated wrestlers that took part in the 'invasion' of WCW at the Norfolk ...

In recent times, Mattel has released various Elite two-packs and it looks, for now at least, it could be something they continue with so in this blog I'll take a look at what we have had so far. First, I will quickly go over what two-packs they have released in the past, drop me a line if I have missed any off. In 2011 there were the All-Stars packs, these were like fantasy match-ups, there was CM Punk & Stone Cold Steve Austin, I am currently looking for the Austin, so, well, get in touch if you have one for sale. Also, there was Randy Orton & Jake The Snake Roberts and the final one was John Morrison vs Randy Savage, Savage is the only one of these 6 figures I have, you'll know if you have it or ever stumble across it as it has green trunks with white stars. In 2016, there was a Nation of Domination pack with Faarooq & The Rock. Nice set, Rock comes with the oval IC title. And in 2019 Ringside Collectibles had an exclusive to their site and it was The Hardy Boyz b...

Hi all, seems like a long while since I wrote something on the blog when in fact it's only been a few days. Anyway, today I want to write about the Entrance Greats, the first run was before I was collecting Mattel figures, so they had been and gone before I started to collect and to be honest, despite most of them looking great, the fact they were basic figures takes the shine off a little and they are not figures I have tried to track down. So, they were released in series, the first featuring Triple H, Rey Mysterio & Shawn Michaels. Triple H was based on his look from Wrestle Mania 22 where he faced John Cena, Triple H in this one, as you can see by the image had somewhat of a Conan The Barbarian look. It looks pretty decent and like many in the original run of Entrance Greats, would've been great as an Elite, I am sure, like with many in the line, people have taken the entrance gear and added it to a future Elite figure. Next up was Rey Mysterio, also based on his look f...
