  Not sure if you all read the first part of this series, I guess if no one is interested I may as well just stop doing the blogs altogether. Anyway, incase there is anyone interested in what I have to say, here is part 2 of my blogs ranking all the WWE legends series figures. In part one I covered sets 1-3, today I will carry on with the Toys R Us exclusive 2-packs and the 4th/5 th  sets. So here we go, yes, TRU back in the day had the exclusive rights to sell the set of 4 tag teams that came under the WWE Legends series line. These teams were 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper & 'Cowboy' Bob Orton, The Bushwhackers, The Rockers and The Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff. This series saw the ONLY Marty Jannetty figure from Mattel, this alone makes it stand out. It also was until very recently, the only set of Bushwhackers elite figures, they came out with extra 'Doink' heads in the last Survivor Series set. We have had a good amount of Piper figures however, the face scan o...

Anyone who has followed me online for a while will know my favourite line since Mattel had the licence for WWE figures is the Legends line. I have them all (except Stacey Kiebler and the 2 Molly Holly ones), from the original run including two-packs, right up to the current series. So, I thought I would do a run of blogs ranking each figure in each set, I might do 3 sets per blog . Series 1 They came out firing with the first set, we had a figure, despite being an absolute legend, we never had from JAKKS Pacific who of course released figures from the WWF/E prior to Mattel and had many, many figures in their Classic Superstars line but not Ricky 'The Dragon' Steamboat but that was not the case when Mattel got the licence. We also got The Road Warriors, Hawk & Animal plus the 'American Dream' Dusty Rhodes complete with polka dots. We also got Sgt Slaughter with a look based on his AWA days but may have also donned that look in the WWF and the final one of the set was...

Welcome back all, it's been a while, if it's your first time reading one of my blogs, welcome and I hope you return. I do these for free of course, I get nothing from them financially so all I ask is you share this post with other wrestling figure collectors, if you see it on X just a repost would be much appreciated, any facebook pages or forums you visit, please, share it there (if I haven't already of course), once again, that would be appreciated . ****ADVERTISE RIGHT HERE**** So, I have not wrote a blog since SDCC, we did see a lot of great stuff on show there, was a bit gutted we didn't see a completed Great Muta figure but I understand that one is down the line and there are other figures to come beforehand. I am not aware of any other events like WM weekend or SDCC they have a big showcase of new and upcoming releases so I don't know how the completed Muta figure will be shown maybe the Mattel guys such as Steve Ozer and Bill Miekina will share it on social ...

Only last week I did a blog ranking the first 3 waves of the   Monday Night   Wars figures and on the lead up to San Diego Comic Con we have seen a new wave coming out in that line. We know it's not wave 4, we are not sure what wave it is or when they will be released. You'd think it would be wave 5 and the 'Best of' set may be a stand alone wave but you never know, that could be classed as the fifth wave, it will all come out in the wash as they say. After I posted pictures on various social media platforms yesterday, I have noticed a mixed reaction, most positive but a some not so. Like with wave 2 we were shown a figure (Rey Mysterio Jr. in pink/black) in an Elite form that was first shown in Ultimate Edition form with the doomed Nitro stage crowd funder and this one is Ultimate Warrior in a look from when he was in WCW. We also got to see a great looking Razor Ramon in yellow gear, looks great, love my Ramon figures as he always wore different colours, yes, people w...

We are 3 waves in and we know what we have for the 4th, so let's take a look, have a bit of a ranking of the ones we have had. The first wave saw Scott Hall based on his WCW re-debut from 1996, it wasn't perfect with the colouring of the outfit but I was happy enough with this one, a long time coming. Also from the WCW side we got a Hulk Hogan, we have had a ton of Hogan figures, especially over the last 12 months and we have more to come so it's always a case of what Hogan can they give us next and the one we got in the first wave here was based on him on a Nitro after the Bash At The Beach PPV where, what would go on to be the nWo would be formed, all decked out in black, a VERY different look for Hogan. On the WWE side in this wave we had a 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin which was pretty much a re-release of his first Defining Moments figure from years ago with some suttle changes, gave the collectors who missed out on that one previously a chance to have a very simil...
