WWE The Rockers Figures and Figure Stands Announced

I'm guessing this is being edited right now? I've been waiting for these guys forever ever since they showed images of them during the Series 2 release.

AndyCR75 11-03-2011 05:03 AM

oh hell yes!!! lol I havent watched wrestling in forever but the memory of Michaels putting Janetty through the window is timeless!

thechris 11-03-2011 05:05 AM

Wow, excellent. I'll be putting this into my phone schedule for sure. Not missing out on this one. :)

I wish Mattel offered a subscription service for their Legends offering through Mattycollector.

I'm a little worried about what it'll be like trying to get these at 9:00am on the 21st.

In a way, I'm happy that they aren't offering a subscription service. I don't know if you were around to vote for the top 5 Legends, but only one of mine made the grade. I only collect up to the late 90s (and I have to really like the guy), otherwise, it's mostly mid-90s and earlier. I don't want a Diamond Dallas Page figure and would feel depressed if I had to buy him. I'm a huge DDP fan, but there aren't many WCW figures to go with him and he didn't enter the WWF until they bought WCW. I actually skipped Stonecold and the Rock simply because they didn't fit with the rest of my Legends collection. It was a stretch for me to get Brian Pillman but as a Canadian, I wanted the entire 90s Hart Foundation and I know he entered the WWF AFTER Stonecold did.

If they did a sub, then collectors that would get all of them anyway could subscribe and not have to worry about missing out because scalpers jammed up Mattycollector's server on the 21st.

Collectors that only wanted certain figs could still log onto Matty to get the figs they wanted specifically the day they went on sale, so it would be a win/ win.

Somehow I'm still missing Jakks Classic Superstars

There were a lot of gret Jakks Classic Superstars, but Mattel's wrestling figures are superior IMO, especially the ones with elite articulation.

I think Jakks should invest in some new bucks simmilar in scale to Mattel's product and produce a Legends of Proffesional Wrestling line.

With Hogan, Sting, Flair, Hardy, and even Taz and Steiner they have plenty of big names they can still translate into big $$$.

These Mattel figures look a lot better, but the Jakks Deluxe line had superior leg articulation quality. You can barely bend the legs forward on these Mattel Elite figures. On my Sgt. Slaughter, his legs practically want to snap off when I bend them forward.

Try loosening them up with some boiling water to get the joint moving.

I did this with a few of mine and it solved the problem.

I cannot wait for these! I guess I am going to have to grab the Defening moments Shawn Michaels while I am at it just to have them all. Also tho figure stands are nice I may order a few so the ones who didn't come with them can get off of DCUC bases.

CLASSIFIED 11-03-2011 01:18 PM

These guys put Jakks' Rockers to shame IMO.

ToyAddict 11-03-2011 06:55 PM

I was always more of a Cracked fan.

omega145 11-05-2011 08:41 PM

Some of these wrestling figures look great and have tempted me to pick a few of them up in remembrance of when it would have been ok for me to watch wrestling but these rockers look nothing like them IMO. They look like barbies to me, maybe kens cousins?
