astrangerwithcandy Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Immediately found a new home on top of my record shelf. I need to keep digging to find the accessories like Hacksaw Jim Duggan's 2x4 and Macho Man's crown. Anybody else have these when they were a kid?

twelvetwenty Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Wasn't it Bushwhackers?... And I had a bunch when I was a kid. I think I still have a Brutus Beefcake somewhere. Remember those WWF thumb wrestler things that slipped over your thumbs? Those ruled too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almightyseancore Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 i had a lot of these, and the "rumble ring" or whatever it was called. so they could fight nice and pro like. ultimate warrior was the man when i was a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Holy hell. My girlfriend was just making fun of me having these as a kid just the other day. I had, no lie, thirty or so, between WWF and WCW. I used to put on matches that coincided with PPVs. Of course I had a character (I usually used Brutus 'the Barber' Beefcake) as my own. I beat up a lot of the guys and rarely lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circlingvultures Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I had a few of the bigger hard rubber ones. Those things were a blast, but if you got nailed by a flying one that shit left a bruise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twelvetwenty Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I thought those were the big rubber ones... Are those the ones that have the bendable wire through them? Or were those even smaller than the ones in the picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circlingvultures Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Those look like the smaller ones they did after the big rubber ones. I could be mistaken though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdwell Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 found two of the thumb wrestlers at my buddy's parents' house back home a month or so ago...he rides rodeo and got his face caved it by a bucking broncos so he had plenty of spare time to dig around in his house....never realized I was giving those wrestlers a major Red Eye back in the day, we had some juvenile laughs at that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 these are the small, hard-plastic figures. i had at least 4 of the wrestlers pictured, and a good handful of others too. also had the ring. and then when i was like 12 or 13, the attitude era figures were considered cool enough to have despite the age. at that point i collected to get as many characters and accessories as i could. it was a blast, but i cant believe that hobby leaked into high school.

mattisr1984 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 i have all of these from when i was a kid plus many more. i love them and will never part with them. i also picked up a bunch of these on card for really good prices. dont know why - just to have the packaging, i guess. i sincerely dislike current wrestling - but back in the late 80s / early 90s it ruled. im sure being kid back then had something to do with it to. also, to whoever was asking about the big rubber figures - that was the line that was released before these. i think kenner released those. the figures pictured were done by hasbro. edit: i also have a bunch of lego pirate sets broken down in storage too - pirate ships, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small, plastic ones with movable arms and heads came out in the late 80's and early 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it that someone like King Kong Bundy who is 400+ pounds is still alive but tons of fit, in shape guys have died before the age of 40 (it's kind of rhetorical, there are other factors to consider). He's only 54 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
