let's get down to the nitty grade. This is our first ever live event
the major resting Figure post an actual successful podcast February podcast that has fans and
people that support it, and uh, it's topical. Sam is just like
he's a pimple. Okay, did you see this picture on someone's ass?
Did you see this picture from the Elimination Chamber pre show that I posted next
to this Amazon wig and beard? It's exactly I saw. Yes, you
want to read some of the combats. Is that a Bob Bob Ross?
I think it's supposed to be like a Bob Ross? Uh? Dude,
he fully? Oh Lord, that Buck's wife right wrote I'm dead what a

Ambrose. I'm good. A couple of good ones in there. But anyway,

it to the fans. He needs to shave that afro. His hairline is
further away than Kurt Hawkins's last win. This dude looks like he homeless,
worst beard in the business. Unbelievable. But guys, Carol looks like Mick
Foley with the receding hairline. No way he should be allowed with the five
hundred feet of a school. Oh my god, that's not fuddy, but
it is. It's not anyway, Guys, Caroline's on Broadway. This is
a real show. I think people think this is like fake, Like when
we took Bill to wrestling for your court. This is legit. That was
fake. That was pretty real. It was real. I'm pretty sure Bill
hates this for it. Definitely does friend anymore. Even February twenty seventh,
it's a Wednesday night. People ask why Wednesday not like Friday, Saturday,
Sunday. Because we work, we're wrestlers. We wrestle on the weekends,
but uh, Wednesday Night, Wednesday Night, February twenty seventh, Caroline's on
Broadway, New York City. It's gonna be us for Sam Roberts. It's

uh, Sam's gonna be there. But like who cares. Yeah, I
mean it's like it's like we're the chicken parm and he's not even like the
spaghetti. He's like, when they come around, ask for the crack pepper.
If they put the crack pepper on there, that's that's too much of
it. Sam's the crack pepper and we're the chicken paw. Tick the stale
bread on the table that's there, and you're waiting, You're waiting for the
butter. Then you put on the stale bread. It's like, not good
butter, not good butter. Right, I can't believe it's not butter.
It's not even fabio butter. McDonald's presenta for a Hamburgler plus mcdouble. You
stop afect them into butter. It's just like old butter. Sam is the
old butter, and we are the chicken palm and that Caroline Sam, you
are getting your head shaved bald. Well, that's not gonna happen, Okay,
I wish, okay, Well, what else you got? I think
that's it for. I had was my little adventure this week to toy Fair.
Okay, you've never been to toy Fair. I've never been to fair
after all these years, it's crazy, I've never been to toy Fair.
I don't know. I got invited to go from Randy from Neka invited me
to go, and then Jeremy invited me to go, but I could not
attend. So you went with smart Mark and BSk. Yeah, so me
and smart Mark and VSK took Jeremy up on his uh hour. I always
say it wrong. I took him up on his offer to check out toy
Fair, which I can't believe. I've told these years i'd never actually truly
been. I guess I had felt like I had been because from literally he
rings that covers it, and you know, you just always scrammed and it's
not a comic con. You can't buy tickets. A Yeah. I can't
believe, like Steve wasn't there for Mattel because he's corporate, corporate, corporate
Bill, Corporate Steve, and then good guy Robert Bill should be sweating over
that chase Mabel decision. Anyway, I thought it was just the same Mabel
twice. There's a chase. But I'll say that for the news that don't
bury the product, I'll tell us off the shelves. But I couldn't believe
how it was so corporate. That's what I didn't know about it. I
guess I didn't realize it. I guess. I think the other thing that
had me like romanticizing about going there was the way Jax would always do it
exclusive, right, like who like corporate execs just got that every year?
And were they giving away you to buy them? I don't know, I
know they were always given away, right. I don't know. Yeah,
for like coming to the I don't know, that's crazy. And then these
guys were just slipping on eBay for hundreds of dollars. I'll talk about it
in the weekly purchases. People are still selling those toy fair Jackson figures very
low numbers and then who gets it. It's tough to come by. You
know, it makes sense. But yeah, it was a very cool experiences.
It's so crazy the toy business. I mean, obviously we have a
podcast about toys, but like how big it is, you know, just
to see it, like the Javit Center in New York, which is ridiculously
massive place just wall to wall with toy companies and pushing their products. It
was a pretty cool. Man. And then also you don't realize how much
how many companies have WW licensing, right because you just see that logo everywhere
and we would just go what's this and we'd pop in and talk to people,
and especially you know, I don't want to pat ourselves on the back,
but I'm proud of us. They probably say, like one year in
we're like we're going to these things. We're trying to be a special name
of getting the name out there. Of the podcast and making connections and making
well that probably won't be yet, but we made a YouTube video that's come
you know, to follow and stuff. That was quite the experience I was.
I was glad to go, but I also it wasn't like it's not
a fanboy thing like as why as like when you guys are telling me stuff
that ridiculous. I was like the night before, we're making the plans in
our group chat and Broski literally tried to get being some mark to wear like
suits there. Yeah, like, no way, I know, but we're
still like media though, I'm not trying to buy distribution rights to like these
toys, you know, get out of here. But that's it. We
couldn't say that for the news. We had to get it in. Now.
I don't want to talk I mean no about the experience. I'll talk
about what I saw there. Okay, we're gonna talk about Jeremy now or
later, because we got to talk about Jeremy how he's a legend, about
he made the whole trip and there Jeremy dare put your cheek or no,
Jeremy put your lips up to your ear right now? Doesn't make sense.
You don't try to do it. Put your listen to your ear. What
am I trying to say? Have no clue you're trying to say? Put
your phone where you put your ear to your mouth because I want to kiss
you. Jeremy, you are a leegend. Did that make sense? You
saved it, but that it took you took a long way. There,
there's a fusion problems. I will He's awesome dude, truly a legend.
I told him he gets it, he gets it, and I also I
want to sit down with him, like intimately an hotel room. I told
him that we were gonna have him on maybe it's Steve Wiser, Yes,
and we need at least like a two hour plus thing with him, and
we'll have to release it as some kind of bonus. Yeah, we were
gonna have him in a couple of weeks, full disclosure and try to figure
out how to do the phone call interview. I don't want to no,
no, no, I want I want him in the same or I just
want to look into his eyes. Yeah, it would be such a waste.
And he's the man. He had just like funny stories about real quick
like things that he could say just for people who are unsure. Jeremany was
basically the godfather of Jack's classics. It was his idea to bring that to
collectibles. And I'm saying that like at the time, there was no Ultimate
Warrior. It was no no, there was no retro fleshback anything in the
history of wrestling figures. It was all just current, current, current,
current, and he's like, well, it's reached his point where it's sentimental
people and this is the thing, and we should capitalize and this it was
all him. And also the business was different in the sense that he had
to go out and sign these guys with ww's permission, but he could basically
sign anyone he wants, and like he's got different stories of acquiring all this
the talent. I can't wait. I mean, he basically said that he
had to Marty Jeanette, like they were going like a VFW to meet Marty
Jeanetti at some indie show he's working, and he was like inebriated and like
signed the paperwork and stuff, you know, like things like that. You
know, so very very influential person in the history of wrestling figures. And
a guy's got some entertaining stories and I can't wait to be in a hotel
room with them alone and just talk figures, talk figures. All right,
all right, guys, it's now for weekly purchases. Some might cost the
little, some might cost a lot, but on the thousand dollar Broski and
your figures will be bought. How's your wallet doing after this week? I'm
okay, Actually it was. I mean it was a week. But uh,
I keep saying I'm gonna slow down, but I do for you guys.
You know, I hope my accountant feels the same way, saying well
no, but I can say in full disclosure that I as well. Sometimes
if I'm on the fence about a purchase, Blake, well, I could
talk it out on the pod. It's okay. I'm not gonna bore you
with all the classic superstars that I bought this week, because I bought so
many, so many came. To be honest, I lost track. But
I will highlight some of my favorites or some of the interesting ones. Can
we I'm just gonna cut you off, can we? We alluded to before
about toy Fair exclusives. Where are you in that department? Okay, well,
it's funny you say that because this week, because those are the most
lucrative, correct, but there's also some like employee ones. Yeah, okay,
So what I what I'm trying to do is I'm trying to rebuildable.
No, okay, what I'm trying to do is rebuild the entire Classic Superstar
collection. I didn't have the entire collection. I kind of quit. I
would say eighty percent through. See, I don't think that's shit. I
think you had. I'm telling you I didn't. Anyway, So since January,
I'm sorry, since November, i've been Uh, the mic is just
going to be don't what are you doing? I won't because it's a full
disculature. Just stop the poty, go take a poop. And now he's
taking the mic. Stand Mike out of the mic stand, what are you
doing here? Fine, that's fine, I won't shake it. Shoes her
off. I'm trying. I'm trying to relax here, all right. Anyway,
So I did get this week a two thousand and eight Toy Fair exclusive
Eddie Guerrero, which I definitely did not have during my collecting days. I
had that. That was I'm your Poppy. Yeah, yes, I had
that one. I did not have it. I never had the Bloody Terry
Funk, which is the one I wanted the most. I now have them
all, every single one, every single one. Yeah. Yeah. All
the Toy Fair exclusives are Ultimate warriorlaughter. No that's no, no, no,
that's toy Fair the magazine. All of them were there, like several
of that. Okay, So there's the Toy Fair magazine. There's two of
them. Yeah, and then there's the employee Slaughter, which looks just like
the employee one of twenty is just like the one of one hundred heel slaughter,
except no stamp on the leg. We should explain employee for people,
Okay. So they at toy Fair, as we were discussed earlier, Jacks
would give away I guess one hundred of an exclusive figure. But then Jacks
would also make employee figures one of twenty, yes, which is insanity,
but I love it, really insane. I don't have any of the employee
figures. I don't think I'm ever going to get them. An Ultimate Warrior
would have ones, and Ultimate war would have exclusive ones. We'll get into
that with Jeremy. There's like Warrior America and all these specials cut into his
deal that he wanted exclusives that would go just to him. He's the same
deal as Mattel. Yeah, I know that he would like sell or very
smart business sell on his website or giveaway to like friends and family. I
think so. Of the toy Fair exclusives, forgive me if I missed one,
but I believe there's Ultimate Warrior, which I never had two thousand and
four of the first year I never had. Same. Then there's the order
might be messed up here, the Terry Funk, the Bloody one that's five.
I don't know if I had it for sure. I think I might
have, but I definitely have it. Now. There's the Weasel Bobby Heenen,
which I did not have that I have it now and mind signed by
Bobby Heenen, which I don't normally like, but that's how it came Jimmy
Hart toy Fair. And then there's the Eddie Guerrero. I don't think I'm
missing you. I think that's it. Yeah, actually you might be right.
Yeah. And then the toy Fair magazine different spelling, different company has
like the Hogan, right has like the Hogan. There's a sunny edge,
but those are to like three thousand. There's a one of one hundred slaughter
Slaughter Hogan, and I believe a sunny one of one hundred. Wow.
Okay, so I got the Eddie Guerrero. Like I said, I got
a bunch of them this week, but I'm only gonna list the ones that
I think are worth talking about. Eddie definitely one of them. Okay,
you think I'm crazy by this one. I thought you're crazy for years,
so it doesn't really matter. Gregory Helms with a kid size cruiserweight tight.
You sent me a screenshot of this this week, and I said, that's
dumb. It does not count. It counts because it has a classic Superstar.
Not only does it have the classic superstar like logo on it, it
says classic Superstars. For instance, there's a Spike Dudley with a classic Superstar
logo, but it doesn't say classic Superstars, so I'm not counting that.
It's Psycho too, but this one says classic Superstars, so I have to
count it. That's clearly like a mistake by genually is. But it's on
the box. It's on the box. It's so dumb. So luckily,
well or unluckily for my whilet but luckily for my collection, there was one
on eBay. It's a little best offer and I got it. Yeah,
I'm sure it wasn't really gonna set you back. It's a waste it did.
Yeah, well not super but enough. Another one I got, which
is really cool Ringside. They make great Metel exclusives now and they've been making
great exclusives forever. Yeah, because they're the best. Put care and thought
into their decision making. And this one like that. But well it Mabel
Gate JKJ. Stop sweating, Bill, We're gonna put it over in a
little bit. Just stay tuned, Bill. Steve called Bill. We're about
to kiss Bill's button. Put him over, all right, Bill, Relax.
But I got the d X two pack. Shawn and trib Blaze brings
that exclusive beautiful two pack. Sean has all like the gear like molded onto
him, not molded onto him, but it's like all molded on stuff instead
of like sometimes Jacks did, like the fabric and the cloth. This is
like the Jack's clothing was very hit or miss, very hit or miss.
I really like, uh this two pack. And like I said, I'm
not gonna name everyone. I got this week a bunch of randoms, but
I did go to Gabby, I I said, we had some creative differences
last week. He you know what he is. He's a great businessman because
you know what he does. He tricks me and just saying, oh I
got he posts on his Instagram things that I need that he already told me
he won't sell me. I'm like, Gabby, I knew, all right,
I'll get him get a And then when I go there, he's like,
oh no, I can't sell is that of a double? He gets
me in there, He's got me there, and he convinced me again.
I went again as soon as I landed, and Chelsea was very mad that
I went because I didn't tell her. She saw like the instagram like story.
Yeah, but I'm glad I did because he had every single deluxe Classic
Superstars, which is another decision you just made out of nowhere, right because
horn Swoggle when I bought that big collection room, and he had like series
two and three randomly and some of the two packs had some okay, but
Gabby had the rest yea, And I just bought them all off Gabby.
So that was it for my Classic Superstars collection this week. Also, I
got in the Little Trades the other week from my good friend Josh Schernoff.
He traded me the junk yard Dog. What with oh, the one from
the Deeper series, know, the original one. I just didn't have it,
really, Swaggle Swaggle didn't have it in his collection. What was going
on with that collection? And you know, Josh, she is a great
wrestling comedy new show on Fight Cold. So says, sure enough, you
gotta check it out. And because of Josh and Bill Laughter, I have
that Hall of Fame ring cleaned. I cleaned it up. I went to
walm I got the what's it called dust spread, I said, a little.
I literally washed it with a rag around the sticker, but carefully,
you can't touch that sticker. Then I took I took you should have saw
the condition of these ring posts ropes, and I took them all and put
them into the dishwasher and just washed the ball and the ring was great.
Now a lot of people love that Hall of Fame ring. Glory blows and
John Comen is trying to get more footage or more pictures from the architect archivist
that Seth Rounds has picks of this ring. The archivist Ben Brown. They
Ben Brown, it's not the archivist. I'm stupid to correct. I don't
know, archivist. I don't think that something like that the this You're definitely
wrong, but come back with architects, all right, So thanks Josh,
Like I said that that show on fight, so says, sure enough,
check it out. So my E C W Ruthless Aggression collection is pretty much
come sorry, one more cuction Superstar started to cut you off. Bruce Pritchard
finally sent me the Brother Lie. Swear to God, you're swear to god.
He sent me the Brother Love. He als said, yes, something
to wrestle hat a dute dut dute shot glass and it's something to wrestle with.
Like what's those coolers like shakers that don't what are they called? What
little shakers everyone carries around? And like you can keep I sent it forever
those things called you know what I'm saying. No, well the people do.
Wait, so how did he finally he just finally got it out to
it. There's no way, you know, reminders know nothing. He's not
listening to the show. I know that he sent it. I'm shocked.
I swear, thank you, Bruce. Wow, and uh, the chot
class It's going to go great with our major podcast they have that. I
kind of want that. Yeah. I put in the dishwasher with the ring
post and the do do dude came right off. So hopefully all the major
wrestling for your podcast ones will be made of the higher quality zombie look into
that dishwasher tests those uh those shot last week? Well, I was saying
my ECW Ruth's aggression collection has really come to an end. I just knocked
it pretty much out of the park. I have some questions for you about
it, Okay, hit me, okay the task, Yes, is it
the ring side TAS or the two pac with rv D. It's the same,
ext it's not what's different the boots what's different. I'm pretty sure there's
a difference. I'm pretty sure there's no difference. Really, let's look it
up right now. Go for it. Taz Jacks. Throw that in the
old Google machine, orange boots, both of them. Okay, I'm not
talking about TAS obviously in the T shirt. Talk about that one, okay.
So like, let's RVD two pack and he's the ring of the know
the infamous Ringside Collectibles exclusive that had the towel around its waist by victims.
Oh, damn, I think you might be right here. I'm totally right.
I hope, I hope not. I'm looking at it right now.
I'm looking at it right now. No, I think I'm right. It's
like they're slightly different. So look, here is the the ring side one.
See how prominent the orange is in the boot? Sure, and then
here's the two pac one not as prominent. I'll go back to that.
Okay, Yeah, it's maybe it's if it's different. It's slightly different.
Okay, but it's different. I was right, we're both kind of right.
Yeah, okay, but which one do you have? I don't know
now, I don't care. It doesn't matter to me though. That's not
like, wait, so do you have a towel of not yea, I
have a towel, but the towel's not in the two pac of RBD.
He came in that lot I got and there was a towel in there,
so I just have it. Were speaking which I still need those tabs.
I need two sabo had headdresses, oran or sheet. I don't care because
this is my collection. I can do whatever I want. Speaking of which,
I told you some weird stuff was going on in my head about this
collection. So this happened. Brian just pulled a figure in a ziploc bag
out of boggt it, just placed it on the table. Tell the viewers
what it is. I don't know. I have to open it up.
This is a you can see it out of the plastic. This is a
custom Sid e c W. Ruthle's aggression figure that you made. You made
the Brian Myers original in my concocted in my head, I made, I
executed, you customized. It's a fully playable no playable, no paint,
no glue, no nothing, custom e c W. Yeah. Can you
can you tell me how I made that? I mean definitely sid head,
Sid Army, Sid torso Nope? Are you popped the shoulder from the shoulder
off? Is it? Cowboy Bob Orton? Yep, Cowboy Bob from the
three pack. Wow. And the skin matches and the body matches and the
arm matches perfect. Could you have to buy these mental card? No?
I got them all loose. I also made a great I initially got a
Billy Graham in the jeans, but the belt isn't painted on that it's I
got blue and I'm like, that's your BRONI was like, I'm not using
this. Wait, I read research, got the bob. So now you're
making customs. The guy is the limit here where you can make maybe next
it wasn't ready and I had another surprise for you next week. But these
are playable customs. Yeah, I'm not going to paint stuff right right.
Some of my questions about your ec collection where okay. So I'm thinking about,
like I said, I make the rules in this I'm the master and
the ruler of the world of this collection. You get it, I can
get it. Let's get skeptics and skeptic Let's just do that again. I
didn't that's that up. I know. For a second, I was like,
what it's going on? Got it? Okay, So I'm thinking about
maybe borderline on borderline, I'm on the fence, going for the pound.
I see give said the pound, don't break his leg there on borderline,
thinking I might need a Joey Styles for my Classic Superstars. You should say
that. So I was doing a little Joey Styles research. Okay, well
this week I got Joey Styles. Now which one did you get? This
is correct me to ask you about both, and I high three. I
put them together. There's three. Okay, hear me out. The first
he said one is the only one that has the glasses. Black on black
on black. No, that has he said, the glasses he's got.
Hear me out. Hear me out. This is what I did. Okay,
but tell the tell the fans, the fens their eyes. But the
real, the real one, the first release has the glasses. It's the
only one that has the black dress shirt on a black suit with a red
handkerchief in his pocket. Yeah, okay, yes, Then to me,
Joey always and E. C W always wore the tie, so I wanted
the other one with the tie. So I got that body that has a
black jacket, No nothing painted in the red. So I took the red
jacket off the one, put it, swapped it with two, and put
the glasses on it to make the ultimate Joy style. Wow, that's cool.
Now, what do you think I would do? Because I'm not that
psycho, so I would probably just have to go with the first one with
the black because it has the glasses. That's like, w V E c
W. Joey try. I can't. I can't. I'm not doing customs
here, bro, It's not a custom no, I know you're doing no
paint, and I commend you on this. Uh, these are called parts
switches, is what I swaps swaps, which I've been doing my whole and
I especially with these jacks. They're so easy. And what you do is,
folks, you water, boil some water. Well, I don't even
need to get it to a boil like what I do. Man, I
was doing it this week myself. Why were you doing that? Because I
had I'll discussed it. I was making a custom referee or taking I had
made a custom referee, and I was unmaking it. I was putting the
pieces back together. But I just take water. I do the cheap way,
the old fashway. Take water, put in a coffee mug, put
in the microbe three minutes and just dump the figure in there. That's real
lazy. So I just boil a pot of water. You hang the guys
there. Doesn't need to get to a boil. It just needs to be
hot. And actually if you wait to a boil, it's almost like too
hot because you pull it out and you're like burning yourself. Trying to like
swap the parts. I always lay out like some paper towel right next to
it boom boom bang, and then like the plastic turns to putties, like
so soft that you can just kind of do whatever. You pop, pop
pop pieces out. I mean with a ruthless guy. I mean, you
could pop the ankles, you can pop the knees, you can pop the
shoulder, to the elbow, to the wrists, you know, the knees
a little tricky with the little pin. There's a little peg which makes it
a little difficult, but it's not that hard once you get the hang of
it. And obviously the heads is the and you're you're lucky with this SID
that all the skin match. It looks, but I like, I didn't
blindly just you know, I did my reach, my due diligence, and
great, yeah, I'm very happy with that. So the Joey, I
think I would. This all came from you. You said, oh,
you're gonna get SID, do you count? I said, no, he
only wore he only wore geens. But you put this in my head.
This is technically your fault. So I think I would just I'm not gonna
do part swaps. I think I need to get just the e c W
Joey, the ECW series that has the glasses because I need one of the
classes. I actually made this so you can see just how awesome this is.
It's great. Wow. See you know you have the major resume your
podcast account. You can you know what I'm gonna talk about, talk about
this on I take a shot. You always post things like on your Instagram
story and like tag major f Pod. Why don't you just like get into
the major f pod account and post it on there a hard post. I
blacked that so you and my wife smart Mark, you all know I don't
like technology stuff. I'm not very but I don't like to learn new things
regarding technology. Posting the picture, yeah, and then you just put it
up. You reput it up. Yes, I'm doing the war here,
same thing. But wouldn't you like as a hard post on our page?
No, I'm good. I mean I am getting desperate to find this new
Jack with no noose. Oh that's another thing. You know why people have
sent me a new Jack with the news. I had to make a diagram
for all the listeners. Guys, listen, we love you, we love
our fans. But I posted all the Savio vegas. I have the one
of the sv the one with just the nation, the one with nothing like
is there one with the s V and the nation? People send me a
picture of the nation figure with the butt. I'm like, guys, Okay,
I obviously know that they got you. Yeah, I've talked about the
most one that has an s V and a nation. But uh, I
digress. Anything else in a week of the new Jack, no leads whatsoever.
I got a lot of nu jacks with the news. I did not
think it even existed. And then uh so that photo last week rocked my
world. So and that's the only one I can even find when you google
it. So anything else with their ECW collection? Uh yeah, well,
actually good. You know we kind of organically got to that Joey without me
bringing it up. A big grab was a doctor death. He was pretty
difficult to come by. Hasbrouve, who's already hooks me up, hooks me
up with that lit trades Ski of the Week, super thankful no trades.
He kind of a free Sky of the Week brother week Brother Ski. I
think he found it like in like a bin. It's some like collectible story.
He really hooked me up. Loose but great, in perfect condition.
What's that? Paul Hayman the one you convinced me that I needed with the
trench coat in there twenty four Ruth's aggression twenty four point five. Well,
I am now the proud owner of that thanks at Chris Collectible. He did
a little trade Sky of the Week with me, and now I have that
Paul Hayman for my Classic Superstars collection. That's the one I got. That's
the one i'm It's a beautiful one for sure. So check out at Chris
Collectible on Instagram and his eBay store Chris Collectible for some sick figures. No,
no dreamers, still no dreamers. I've been looking at that dream for
like six months until like, dude, God, I need the dreamer that
you that you stole. Yeah, pretty proud of that. Our good friend,
uh Sean Wallman x pac, he hit me up this week and he
asked me if I wanted one of his micro brawlers. Apparently there was some
sort of cease and desist and they stopped production on him and there was only
like one hundred or so made. And he's cool, and he asked me
if I want to want to? Said absolutely so, thanks Xbox, I
really I really appreciate it. Meant a lot that he hit me up and
asked me. I could see it blurring the lines of well, yeah,
I don't know the the X and end of the kind, but shows him
and breaking down his gear. One side of his hip was like, you
know, we wear the same kind of gear. H once I was be
the nWo logo. On the other side would be the d X level.
That's actually pretty cool. So I don't know what. He's one of those
guys like you meet and he's like the opposite of a disappointment. He's like
way cooler, Like you always thought he'd be cool, but he was way
cooler than you thought he'd be. He's the and speaking Xbox. This week,
it was announced that he will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
So big congrats to Sean and uh, I guess that's some good karma
for sending me the figure. No, I'm just kidding. He totally deserves
it, so thank you very much. Another trades the other week I have
is from at Chris Underscore T one two to two. He traded me the
rock that I needed in the dress shirt with the rock like logos that we
talked about. Yeah yeah, so now I think I'm just one Titan Tron
to figure away from having everything I need, not every collection, not every
figure ever, just what I need from my personal collection. And who is
the one? It is a double slam cane pre real scale sorry, pre
real scan era double slam with Undertaker and he's got the red with like the
mesh going through the chest. How would you want that because that symbolizes like
that kind of era. Oh any uh, non real scan Titan Trons.
Will some of them I count in my collection? You have to, I
guess you have to count Shamrock and gang Rock because they're never made, and
Debora, and then I also count like the first ever Steve Austin and that's
like iconic for me, and that I want this cane, and I don't
know if there's any others that they are really no detail, horrible skins you
see if it did. Jack's BCA put a d LO brown Titan Tron prototype
up. Yeah, his head is almost the same. It's not identical to
the bone crunch your head, but the Titanron body is unique to and it
was never released. So crazy, it doesn't make any sense to me.
It doesn't make any sense to me at all. Anything else that you bought
a trades kid. Uh no, but do you have anything else? I
have a lot of else what? Yeah, oh my god. Okay,
so i'll make it quick. But do you remember that let's let's spacstrack a
little bit. Yeah, you don't have to tell me all. But what's
the most you spent on a classic so far? I'll tell you right now.
The eddie was a good five hundred bucks. That's not I feel like
that's what it was worth ten years ago. So it really didn't like go
up or down in value. Yeah, that's that's one of that might be
the most expensive. I got a great deal from stam on a bunch of
toy Fair ones, like in a lot. Okay, anyway, I'm not
proud of that. Okay. So remember the w CW bash at the Beach
Ring slash play set from toy Biz. I think we've talked about it before.
We might have talked about it. But I got this for Christmas cloth
such a loser in high school, had it opened it, played with it
to play with it like in your bathtubber in your pool, or I didn't
play with it in the water because I was anal and didn't we did talk
about the sho I didn't want it to get ruined or whatever, but I
just I didn't think about that. With the stickers and stuff, I would
never know. I bought it to play in my pool. Anyway, I
have it. I now got it. It's so unique and cool and bizarre.
At Rick three six eight five, all the way from the UK.
He sold it to me. Uh, it might have been on shells in
the UK, maybe only J C. Penny in the States. I got
the ring Mint in box. Yeah. I got the ring Mint in box
and all five of the figures, which I never had Stolberg, DDP,
Brett, sting Luger, Yes, only five, which is weird. Yes,
And they're kind of like stomp ESK or slam Force esque. And they
have like weird weapons that like water gun stuff, the giant Ghostbuster backpack that
shoots beach balls and stuff. Right, So I definitely wanted to do like
an unboxing where I played with this in my pool. You're saying the stickers
might get messed up. That's a huge risk. I think, oh my
god, I that's why I got it. Well, to take pictures I
always wanted it, but to take pictures like in my pool and stuff that's
really intense. Maybe there's no stickers. There's gotta be stickers. I like
built to a big leg bash the Beach pay per view where that was the
set obviously, Maybe it's not stickers. Maybe it's painted on. I don't
remember. I have an unboxing yet, so I'll keep you posting, guys.
But I'm very happy I got that. I've been looking for that for
a long. Rare, rare, rare and unique piece. Most people don't
even know it existed. It was like so on the deathbed of the toy
business WSW line. And like I said, the individual figures very I never
had and never saw in the stores on your title die Hard. I don't
know if they even care. I think they're rare, but in the sense
where like nobody wants them. It's a little bit of all yeah, you
know what I'm saying. This This is between like rare and like someone wanting
something and it's in demand. Oh for sure, like for instance, like
a A or too Cool Bendom is very rare and people want it. What
do you think is going on with me? In this new Jack? Nobody
wants this, but I can't find it. Exactly exactly, Okay, a
couple more things. I'll try to make it quick. I think a couple
of months ago on the pod, I talked about that I wanted to build
the major wrestling figure podcast arena, like to do figure photography. Blah blah
blah blah. I finally built it this week. It's huge, it's it's
got, it's got a lot of different parts from all different people. I
just want to thank Figure Kingdom on Instagram. Here was my inspiration for this,
and Extreme Sets on Instagram. They have like the crowd cardboard crowd set
up. It is ginormous. I use them before for the wrestling Fear of
Court for like the backdrop and stuff like that. So check out Extreme Set
Extreme Sets on Instagram. I'm gonna post a picture. It's probably already posted
where everyone's tag so you can know what I'm talking about. So you gotta
see this. I showed you the picture of it. Yeah, the crowd,
it's got the blue mats literally, the mats are blue mats. That's
actually from Wrestling Superstore. I got the mats from them, and security guard
figures that I got and the guardrails and the ring. The ring is a
wicked cool ring that. I got some rings from Ringside Collectibles and the guardrails
are part of their NXT guardrail set, but you can take off the blue
the black NXT covering. It's just old school guardrails, which is genius.
And I got tons of tons of Ringside Collectibles chairs for my invisible crowd.
Other things I got were from ring Skirts on Twitter. They made me a
major favorite podcast canvas and ring skirt which is incredible, no separately, like
the canvas one piece and the ring skirts one piece. And then from ks
Elite Stages he built me like a WrestleMania like eight style entranceway with the major
Pod logo on it. Which so I built this giant arena. I was
gonna do all this figure photography. You you actually came over and you saw
it. It looked awesome. It's just so big. It's that that's the
problem. It's just so big, and like every time I was almost completed
with it, my cats are coming and knock something over because covered this.
Yes, so I just had I had to lock them in my bedroom the
other night because what happens is if they know I'm in the room and the
door shut, they try to scratch and clawed to get under it, and
it ruins my carpet. They've already done it, you know what I'm saying.
So I had to lock them into the master bedroom so I could do
this, and I finally had it up perfect. I took some pictures,
some figure photography me wrestling you for the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast Championship, and
then I looked at him, like, I can't have this set up here.
It's just too big. It's big, so I had to take it
down. It looks so it took me like months to finally finish it.
Wait, so it had been up in your house since I saw it.
Yep. I haven't been able to finish it properly because like the cats keep
knocking it down. I'd been a little busy. So I finally I'm going
to finish it. Takes a like the setback was your cat's bullying you in
your own home. I also have, like you know, a family at
homes. I can't really like be playing with toys and stuff, right Yeah,
But I just want to thank everyone who will helped me build this and
all the parks and all the pieces. Check it on Instagram and on Twitter.
It looks great me wrestling you for the championship, but we went to
a no contest. Well I have to lose. You're going You're going to
ruin my career technically lost. Earl Hebner was the referee. Earl Hebner was
the referee. He's older than Bill after Boy. Nobody got screwed by Earl
Hebner by the way. Okay, another funny story. Two more things real
quick. So my girlfriend Chelsea, I love her so much. She facetimeed
me last week saying like, Okay, the alarm just went off. There's
been a glass break. I have glass break sensors in my house, right
then, right, so the alarm, it's like my house is so secure,
right, so it's like there's glass break, Like I don't know if
it's the pitch or what. Like, the alarm senses it and it goes
off. Okay, and she's like, oh my god, I'm scared.
There's a glass breakdownstairs, Like, oh my god, someone's showing to break
into my house is unbelievable. She's facetimed me the whole time, and my
baby like be careful. She's like walking downstairs, all break, my baby.
If someone's in the house, like these cats aren't gonna protect you.
Right, here's the Greg Valentine just leave taking to go. So my whole
toy room is uh fully locked and insurance. I don't even try it.
Okay, But what had happened was she made me this beautiful display last year
of all my men on card Hasbro Series one. Oh yeah, you know
talking about Wait, it just fell off the wall. Now, we had
taken it up the wall to put up a Mickey Mouse painting and I was
gonna move that to a different area of the house. So it's just like
kind of standing there. So I don't know if my cats tried jumping on
it or what and it broke. It fell, flattenet space glass shattered everywhere.
What about the figures? No figures, no, no figures were luckily
all good, all good. But so I had all these figures probably cut
your cat's definitely messed that up. Well, yeah, they terrorized your home,
right anyway, I've explained that several times there. So I had all
these Series one has bros. I'm like, Okay, Chelsea's like, she's
gonna rebuild this for me. I'm like, well, when's that gonna happen.
It might have happen in a week, two weeks, a year.
Who knows, Like, I can't have these mint case fresh from Zombie Sailor
Coach at Hasbro's just chilling, So like, I need some protective cases.
So I went on zolo World and got the protective cases for all my Hasbro
series one. And you're still looking for the ECW cases from zo World one.
You're an idiot because the rings reta ones fit Hasbro's andre right, So
come on, I'm a psycho because I need them all to match. Okay,
I'm saying Solo World has been ignoring me. I've wrote in an email
and a Instagram message about casing my ACW guys. They're, oh yeah,
just get Hasbro to be fine, said, I know for a fact it's
not going to fit. I need something else. Here are the measurements.
Haven't heard back from him, so I'm dying. Okay. The last thing
I bought this week and it's a it's one of those like I have goosebumps.
My wallet is crying right now. Okay. From Austin Collins. He's
a guy I uh was introduced to on Facebook. All those Facebook groups we've
talked about it before in the Hasbar episode the Hall of Fame Hasbro figures.
The unreleased there's supposed to be like a not twelve inch but a taller G
I Joe style figure Barbies. Sure, yeah, that's good. There's gonna
be Hule Cogan. Let's get right to it. They were Barbies. No
whole G I Joe's Hull Cogan, Undertaker and Macho Man have real fabric clothing.
Never were released with Barbie articulations and G I Joe because they're barbiees.
I had the Hull Cogain head and on eBay Austin Collins had the Macho Man
head with an unpainted Macho Man head case. Graded also had the Undertaker head,
unpainted Undertaker head case and Graded. So I did a little deal with
them privately and I acquired them both into my collection. So now I have
all three of the Hall of Fame Hasbro heads. But there's a dilemma.
I don't want the unpainted heads and they're in these sealed cases labels wrong too.
They're also labeled as two ups. They're not two upheads. They're Hall
of Fame and I'm psycho about that. So what I need to do is
I need to crack over these cases. Get the painted ones out and guys
breaking news. I'm selling the unpainted heads, the Macho Man and Undertaker unreleased.
Macho Man has glasses on, no hat nothing, Undertaker has no hat.
I'm selling. So hit me up if you want to be the owner
of these. These are very very rare. I'm keeping the painted ones,
but the unpainted ones I want to go to a real collector and a good
home. So if you want those, so I'm assuming you're Hogan's painted,
Hogan's painted, where's the unpainted Hogan? Who knows? Oh wow? But
I don't care about that. I know, I'm just wondering. These are
like squishy, they're like because they're for g I. Joe's Yeah, not
barbies, like you're saying j Jo's Ken Ken dolls. All right? Well,
anyway, it is so Incarnation Domination is a weekly segment where a Hard
Foundation member chooses a superstar, Mark surprises us with it, and then we
pick our favorite version of that superstar Mark. Who do we got? All
right? Uh? They're talking about his fan vote figure. This week,
Peter Mendoza has selected Ricky Steamboat oh Man. That was my guess, yeah,
we're not. Well Ricky the Dragon. Ricky like his figures go from
so antoyotic to me, they're like very toyatic if it's the Dragon. But
the Dragon was very successful, right, so it's like it's like a weird
devil edged sword, right. I want like really he wasn't like celebrated as
the Dragon, you know. Wait? I also went, are we only
doing the Dragon? No, we're doing him, but like first of his
l JA and the most antoyetta Oh my gosh, like all black the prototype
has some red in it. We don't get there. It looks even that
would I think would make it like so much better. You mentioned it was
like in the White three. Yeah, pose they'd be so dirty and like
horrendous. But uh, like that wrestleminga three mettele figures, we've got four
times. Yes, the Dragon though, Like though I didn't even really like
process that. I don't think until I watched that DVD like ten years ago
came out in Sneaking Belt, like yeah, it's like barely a year.
Yeah, yeah, I was marveling very recently about him jumping back and forth
like Savage Match and then the Yeah he's having those matches and then he's back
throughing the Dragon, back the Dragon, then he goes right back. Yeah,
I wasn't watching w CW when he leaves after the Dragon. Of course
I've gone and watched it back. You know, A great match with Steve
Awston, Right, that's what we all know. Love tagging with Shane Douglas.
I mean, weird that Hasbro figure. I'll never forget finding it towards
the US. That whole set was incredible for so long. I took the
Ricky steamboat like the Cape or whatever it is, and I put it the
wrong way. It's supposed to be like at the bottom the wings almost you
know, great figure. I found it recently that that doesn't fit in a
ring side defender, and I was devastated because his head is the crown is
too big. I think it's like a perfect has Bro figure yea, which
like mmmm, even as a kid made him like this is way too much
like armor on him and stuff. But you know, because he didn't work
like that, then we get no Jack's plus a superstar because it's a weird
thing where he didn't own his name. Yes, that's the big problem.
Well, Legends of Wrestling, I didn't get those accounts. It's no counts
too. Yeah, the bloody and non bloody, those figures are cool.
That one's not bad. It's it's not it's not great, it's not so
it was the first one, Craig if I'm wrong, Legend series one Ricky
Steamboat. That's a huge deal, huge deal, massive deal when that comes
out? What's that? What is the steamboat? Like all Red? All
red? It's like a perfect like eighties steamboat w WF. It comes with
the uh blue harbor dragon, kimono dragon everyone. I was always confused though,
whatever is this supposed to be WC W or n w A. I
don't know. I thought it was like w F steamboat. Maybe I don't
know for sure, like what the LJM was supposed to be. I think
it's a great figure I have. It looks really really good. You know.
Then there's they they do the is it ultimates or I think his second
figure is old Man Ricky old bit with Jericho Jericho, you know that right?
Yes, I'm looking at right now. I know that there was a
two back for that, but we did that match very recently on off the
hubber Ope and it's the model it's very good dude. At that time Series
five, Yeah, Series five battle packs and he's in a two pack with
Jericho and it's like he's got gray hairs of his old man Ricky Steamboat.
But at that time I remember this. I don't know about Broski, but
I was had just got to FCW and Drew McIntyre was like transitioning from like
he had gotten like demoted. He was on the main roster and then he
did like a year maybe in FCW, and he was like in the process
of coming back up and he was working live events. And then we're asking
me the guy I works Steamboat like every night. I'm like, what,
Like, Ricky's the Dragon Steamer, like our producer, Like yeah, he's
like he just does the loops down like I work with him. Like like
I think, like Shame has got to do it. Seem like that's pretty
cool. Maybe maybe way back, I don't know, a lot of dudes
got to like work loops with them at that time. Unreal, right,
isn't that one of random ass unbelievable opportunity to get So that's where that's from,
and that I mean that match was, I mean, I guess then
they have the follow up too on paper? Would you watch that or the
Mania? We watched the pay per view. Okay, so that the Mania
is the first one, but like snookers in it. Yeah, it's like
a joke and they get them out and then they kind of have a singles
and then they have the real singles and the we watched. I was always
super happy for Ricky during that time because, like you always tell like he
was super passionate. He's like a producer, an agent backstage, and yeah,
I always liked him. Always helped me out any anybody. It's cool
to see guys go out on their own terms like that because obviously, like
when you when an injury takes your career away from you, you know it's
not you know, you're not writing it the way you'd like it to be.
And this is like a little chance to you know, go out the
way. I'm sure he wanted this. The finding moments Ricky the Dragon Steamboat
incredible. I mean this what I think is it's he's got the fire torches,
the Hasbro figure just way better. Who I gotta go watch for you
guys? Do you guys have you have this mark? No? I do
you have it? Yeah, do you display with everything? Yeah, I
don't. I take the tailoff because it's so ginormous. I just keep it
in a bin. No, I can't see it though. It takes up
way to a drew. I have it on display with the torch. I
think it's awesome. It's it's it's there's so much going on, like you
don't realize how much went into that like outfit. Yeah, and then there's
like it's like originally as a Basic uh series forty five Ricky Seamboat and like
that white three three they re release that in a three pack. Then it's
had three. It's had three elites like this three three, the Harley Race.
Oh okay, sorry to yes, the Harley Race. Now this new
okay, so two I'm sorry now this new fan take. But three total
of you count the Basic? Right? Yes? Right? What is this
representing? Three? It's all white, it's beautiful, it's beautiful, it's
great. The one Harley Race one. I mean obviously that whatever happened with
that series, it was not widespread and there was some distribution problems. So
I'm sure it's gonna be fine. People eat this up. I'm sure it
has the printing on the face. I'm sure it's updated. I wish they
would have added like the red logo and the icy title, like if you're
gonna correct it, yeah it is, listen whatever, it doesn't matter to
me, Like I'm not selling. That's the The other steamboats that we're talking
about are kind of like hidden. The one from the Tyler Racet I have
like where you could see it at my display that front row next to the
Macho Man russe three. There you go said, that's true. I don't
have a steamboat at all, and I think I definitely need more. They
get the one on Alison. I don't you have a Rick Flair collection?
And you don't have a Ricky I was just drinking that. Actually, there
was a point where I was going to have like a like a brick Flair
bad guy's shelf. Not bad guys, but Rick Flair last ernomies, and
I bought like a couple like a Dusty for it. And then I was
like, maybe I do this. That's pretty cool. What about the micro
Brawler. I can't forget that micro as rare as hell? Yeah, I
love it. I mean is that it for for? For Ricky's is not
a lot? A lot with the has Bro something I always I always watch
old like Hall of Fame speeches if I'm like really bored, And I love
Dusties because there's one point where he like, He's like, if you are
young, up and coming bus near get your thelf A video tape of Ricky
the Dragon theme. But I mean, how much more of an endorsement do
you need? You know? I mean we've talked about this before. The
three matches in eighty nine was brick Flair art, in my opinion, some
of the greatest wrestling matches of all time and huge things that I study and
and you know, I like to watch it for rick Flair, but you
know, the baby face work for Ricky Steamboat in those three matches is just
unbelievable. It's never worked. He guys, he never worked. He that's
crazy. Crazy is that I'm trying to think, who's like in that boat
Like Dreamer Dreamer Dreamer was a wasn't he like a cocky like a like a
lover boy when he first started. No, he was like a really cheesy
baby face that he was a baby face? Huh yeah, Well people were
doing Steamboat by the end of the eighty nine run. My favorite definitely has
to be the Hasbro my opinion, I'm gonna go to the Harley Race set
Elite WRESTLEMINGA three. That's a nice one. And Mark, what do you
think? But Mark, you don't have any of these? So can you
really can? I literally said Hasbro one and I have? He said?
Does the jump work? Definitely not? Of course it does. Get do
you have the cape? Click? Click click click? No, Cape jumper
doesn't work? Probably one of the like the sharp things on his wrists are
falling off? Get out? All right, yes, big time? I
got it up. Next is the w t F Figure of the week.
All right. The WTF Figure of the week is a figure where you look
at it and you say what this week for a variety of reasons, it
is the Jacks Titan Tron Series one, the rock. Now why picking this?
Because football jerseys we're switching from bone crunches the Titan Trons. Okay,
so it's like, okay, this is the first time, the first chance
before skinny jeans, weird thing and you're getting a rock in like a jersey
maybe he wore once. Maybe it's a fake that's a mess like this though
no, not really, because Austin's in like jeans and a vests, So
I'm like, okay, I can your reach though, No, why wrestling
figure should be there, wrestling trunks, I altered outfits should be like down
right, but at least Austin I can like give it a pass for jeans
and a vest. This Rock is in like a football jersey that didn't even
really exist if it did, like did he wear it in pants? Like
that's what you good for? Series one think of it now that are ahead
of their time because they're all wearing those skinny jeans and that wasn't even a
thing. But like imagine like Series one bone Crunchers, you get like Diesel
not in his gear but in a big daddy cool jersey. What It's just
odd? Right? They suck? And when I have talk about the face,
no articulation the faces, I just think, like the packaging is like
ugly too, I think, And it's like matching like the bone crunching with
the Survivor series Yes ugly. Yeah, So that's I'm saying, WTF Series
one the Rock? Sorry, Dwayne, I love you? Yes, all
right? All right? Up next is the Q and A. All right,
the Q and A every week asks a question on Twitter, ask major
pot. We will read your question on air, and when we read it
on air, if we read on air, we will send you a nice
little eight by turn. All right, Chris Wayne at Master Underscore Wayne,
he's a major mark with the best hair. I think, yes, the
hair is unbelievable. Yeah, all right, ask major Pid. Do you
talk about detof zigglers often? What are your other favorite pieces of furniture to
display your figures? Well, I said it a couple of weeks ago.
I don't think that the fabricord gets enough love. I think it's my case.
That's a great thing. My old thing about that. It's not the
best week Angled. But the line in the middle ruins the sitelines. Ye,
but if you have kids or people in your house, you don't want
touch of your ship to be able to lock. It is like priceless.
It's sturdier and also shake as much as a ditoll. If you breathe on
a detoll for shakes everything you open the door because yeah, yeah, like
it's like terrifying because it's a shake and I bolted mine to the wall and
it's still crazy. Yeah. So right behind me, I also have the
Vistu, which is literally a detoll without the glass on the outside. Uh,
and it's a little bit bigger, So that one's great. And then
what I was going to say is you you got to think outside the box
too. It doesn't have to be ikea like my Ninja turtle display is now
in a terrarium. A terrarium is like what you buy to put your snakes
in. Bro Where could you found that? Somewhere right on Amazon? And
it was a good price, great case. I like the Calyx or my
Kiya. I use that for my set. For the Calex is nice and
Calex is like a box and you can get them in a many You can
get like eight in a row of eight or a row of four. Right,
you can do it vertical or horizontal. Yeah. Also I like the
Billy bookcase. I know our good friend, uh, Kyle Peterson is a
big Billy bookcase guy. Yeah. You can customize the Billy bookcases big time,
and you can get doors if you want for those Brosky, I wanted
you to talk about a lot of people. You posted the video of your
room, and everybody wants to know about those giant light up cases you have.
Now those are like trophy cases, right, so I think they're more
like they're like displays four displays, Like like they're like like you would use
him in like a store to display something. So maybe maybe those in particular
people get sports collectible place. I got them from place called bar Display B
A R R. I like them. I do not like the lighting that
is in them. If I move, these will be not coming with me.
Really, yes, I do not like the lighting that's in them.
Uh Like there's like a led like strip that goes around like the perimeter of
the inside, and like I don't like how it looks like if you're uncertain,
if you have like some men on card figures, it like reflects off
that and like you can see this. I just don't like how it looks.
If I move into a different place, I'm gonna just get like bite
the bullet and get custom shelves with lights built. Yeah, I feel like
from forever a place. Yeah, but yeah, now they're great. They're
cool. I started those as like almost like the tent poles in my room.
I have four of them, and then I added like some details and
billy bookcases around them, and I do like that they come with enough shelves,
so you can make them adjustable. So for instance, like am I
ghost must have won? I can make it high enough for the firehouse,
you know, but then like in my wrestling and they're just like a little
higher than six inches for figures. Soool, I like that about shelves period,
Like all my stuff is adjustable, and I've found myself from time to
time kind of playing with them for certain things, you know. So I
think I think the best part about collecting really is like getting creative with these
things, because really a detail is not made for figures. You know,
someone said, hey, let me put some figures in here for sure?
Was it supposed to be like a China or who the hell knows? Well?
The pictures then the website are all just like you know, your your
mom's nick knacks, just like some picture some China. Maybe I would always
recommend detos to people because it's the best bang for your buck. Is so
like they look nice and if you have like more than one, it looks
like it's a big set even though it's not. So Yeah, and I
think it's also Kyle Peterson who has those on like little risers. Yeah,
he's got an ikea shelf on the bottom and then on the top, and
it fits his room perfect. It's yeah, it looks great. Yeah,
he's a he's a true pro when it comes to its playing. And then
the last thing I'll say that I've been doing a lot is you can get
like really cheap just wall shelves that people don't really talk about. Like if
you've got like a table in your room or your couch and there's space above
your couch, you don't need to get a case, per se, but
you can buy some really nice shelving that looks good just to put a couple
figures or something. But that's a good way to expand your elf cheap.
On Amazon too, you have to some shelves like for like blank space to
fill some things. Yeah, the floating shelves, Yeah, yeah, exactly.
My question is from Evan Bovy at Evans on Tour hashtag asked Major Pole,
what's your most coveted wrestling card or most valuable I have had my eye
lately on this Edging Christian rookie card that I really want, which is actually
I believe from a Japanese card set from like ninety eight ninety seven. It's
a BBM nineteen ninety eight. Wow, that's all you have that? No,
I want it. It's very expensive. There's a couple on eBay.
Oh wow. So I'm like we talked about earlier in the show, just
wrestling cards are just going through the roof, so like I want to,
you know, jump jump in now before it's too late on some of these
things. So but they're already through the roof. So it's like I had
that I bought. We it's on one of the earlier episodes. I bought
the whole Wrestling All Stars like nineteen eighty two, eighty three, whatever,
the whole set, and then they came I covered in like mildew or whatever
the hell it was, so I to sell them. I didn't rip anybody
off because I said, hey, these are covered in whatever the hell they're
covered in. I did look recently because I almost got the ninety one WF
Classics because that's what our series two is based off. So I want to
get like a sealed case. They go for like pretty petty. It's crazy,
dude. Well even that set you're talking about that eighty two wrestling clad
like what's his name about? De Andre? And he said it was an
eight yeah, and he said, no ten exists. That's wild. So
that's like what we're talking about it. It's I love it. It's fascinating
to me, and part of me does want to get into it, but
I would only want to do the cards that I had as like a kid.
I remember like the like ninety eight I guess, like the Attitude Aero
style cards with no like they're just photos and then you have to turn the
background and like, yeah, I kind of dig those. But Chelsea and
I we were we've been trying to get like a bar for a barroom,
and we decided like every company that we're ordering from, I don't know if
it's because they're all blaming the pandemic, like it's like all right, barships
in three weeks. Oh, it's been delayed a month and then like eight
eventually we have to cancel. It's been having over and over, So I
thinking about getting a bar like built from scratch, and I was thinking like
for the bar top, like all like wrestling cards, and then we put
in like some Matt and Chelsea's some major cars that get like covered in glass
on top. That's pretty cool. But these cards are not as she was
they used to be right, Well, you don't have to buy gem tens.
Well, no, I want fresh packs. I guess you know what
I'm saying. I wouldn't want old krusty card. I like that idea a
lot. That's a cool coffee table idea. Yeah, so we're planning on
that. Well, let's I thought Lacy Evans husband was going to build you
are he's too busy building fins. That's true. I love those WW cards
with the weird nineties. You know what I'm saying. Those are like the
only cards that have not like I don't know if those are like insanely mass
produced, but like there's still like affordable and like no value. Even though
I did see I might have sent it to you. This week someone had
every Flare gem Mint ten graded. Way with you. I sent it to
you in the group. Oh yeah, I saw it. It's pretty cool.
I have every Flair but they're not graded. Yeah, but great graded.
I would want like every pilman like that. But it's such a task,
which Johnny Clash said. He goes on vacation, like upstate New York
or something like that, and there's like this store that he stops in as
like a diner and they have like one of those vending machines still has those
WCW cards in the vending machine. That's awesome. Well that's why, like
they were able to get all those PSA ten flares because they are so cheap.
Those cards he probably bought like boxes. And still it's a lot harder
than you think, Like there's more to it, you know. Yeah,
so I'm not actively looking for anything. There's some zach ryders I'm sure I
don't have, but not any I mean, obviously I'm always on for record
Hawkins and you know cards, but that I don't have, that's a great
question. My question comes from Pete Helend at Pete Helend with Zombie doing real
retros now, who is missing from the original hazar a line that he could
realistically get licensed? Do you know Bravo Ben his Brown, Ronnie Garban,
Tito Santana, not alm Outador and Power and Glory come to mind? Hashtag
asked me for bod It's funny you asked a question because me and Zombie have
been coming to like blows, but not physical blows, like verbal blows about
this, like picking these guys and I have nothing to do with this company.
Like I'm not invested, I'm not like involved, I'm not a backer,
but I want this to succeed. But we're like kind of like going
back and forth on who to get. Here are some some guys and now
here's the problem. Guys like you can be like, oh I want so
and so, Okay, then you got to think realistically, well can I
sell at least a thousand? So it's like it's tough. It's like,
okay, like sure, I want Duke the Dumbson drosi A can he even
legally do that? That's what I'm saying. What are you gonna sign Mike
Enos and Wayne bloom That's the thing. That's the thing. Like as much
as you buy the Beverly Brothers, WW owns this ip and since these aren't
mainstream figures, but they're going to be mainstream enough in w W wool,
right, so you gotta be very careful. I think there's some guys out
there. King Kong Bundy would be awesome. Okay, you know, like
why I can't do the Beverly Brothers. I want the Beverly Brothers, But
what would you do? Like there, Mike, you know some Wayne Bloomer
they're not even brothers. Mark, I mean you could, right, Like,
I mean you could, but could you make him in your similar That's
where it is tricky. I don't know. So that's why I asked this
question. This is that's why I like when Zombie asked about this, I'm
like, I can give it at the ZCW guys, right, because like,
right, I don't know. So that's why I asked this question because
I want to get some ideas. I was thinking one man gang. So
really you got to think of guys who were in WF who used the gimmick
before and after. That's how you know they have it for sure. Well
some of them you just know, right Yeah, like obviously can' kung buddies
can kill buddy bros. I have a meeting with Double J tomorrow ten am
potential time. Okay, yeah, that's a big one. Yeah, I'm
broker. I'm trying to broke this deal. It's a big one, trying.
But like he'd be the Vegas obviously for me personally, I'm sure there's
others. So, but who are some guys like gia Vega, Like he
can't sat Vegas can't be sav Ovega. He can't be sav Vega. Yeah,
he can't be able, you know, like who I'm listen, I'm
asking this question because I'm asking the question, like, he can't be Thurman,
Sparky Plug, you know what I'm saying. He could be Could he
be Bob Holly and like be kind of a race car driver? Maybe?
But then it's like if w W wants to come after they could it's not
worth it. It's definitely a type rope. Yeah, is there like some
nineties w's W guys that are missing that would be fun to make obviously,
like maybe like Big John stud you know, Bro, I couldn't believe I
said this zombie today Enzo oh, because he was missing because he's missing from
the retro. But he can't be Enzo, but he could be that he
is Enzo he spelt yeah, right, so like and I do think he
needs a mixture. I know he's got like Dan House And I said,
like, uh, what about like could he be could he do could you
Chris Candyo looking like skit? I don't know about that. I don't know
about some good bros to go with you guys. Yeah that's true, huh,
I know guy can make that happen. I'm just trying to think if
you guys have any realistic suggestions, mister Hughes, I'm serious, trained Heath.
That's an easy one. Like, but I thought, like, what
about like Sean Mooney? Mm? But here's another thing. I don't know.
If you saw the pictures he posted of hours these he can do whatever
he wants. So he can do build a figures because they come up,
the head comes off, the arms like the waist. You know, he
can choose not to make him as secure. I guess. So what if
it's like build a Sean Mooney, that's fine, not like Moyd petal Is
Earl Heavener signed to a W Probably not. I don't know. Wait what
about managers? Hasbro has no managers? But okay, but now you think,
can they sell at least a thousand? And I don't even know if
thousands number could be fifte hundred? Could they least off fifteen hundred? You
know, I don't know Jim Cornett would sell Jim Cornett easy that it's an
easy one. But would he sell fifteen hundred? Yes? Absolutely, he
saw those on his own on his website with the FTCs they signed. Yeah,
yeah, it's actually not bad horrible figures too. Yeah, Jim Cornett
would be good. Yeah, that's why I'm trying to think more along those
lines, Like you would be very upset that he's in a line with smart
Marcus Darling well who like hated your performance. It's a very interesting concept.
It's a it's an ever growing you know constantly. Would you like to see
in this line? Reach out to us on Twitter using hashtag and whatnot.
So be honest with you, guys, was that episode not jam packed?
To be honest, tell me the truth. Do you want more from the
major rewind? Do I need to cram more clips and snippets? I'll do
it. If you don't think that was jam packed enough, you know,
I'll keep adding more. I'll keep jamming it in. But until now,
that is the end of this week's episode. Thank you so much for listening.
As always, leave a comment review. I'm sure it will help you
know. I know this is a subsistence, subsisidary, subsist, subsisidary,
subs subsidiary to the I know the big words. Sometimes I can't pronounce them.
My brain just moves too fast. I know this is just a accouterment
a compliment, a complimentary piece to the major pod. But you know,
I think it helps. So if you if you're a fan of the rewind,
leave a comment, leave a review. And uh yeah, you know,
we were coming off of a successful show this past weekend for Creative Bro.
Not not so successful for me. You know, I could have could
have won the match. That would have been better. But you know,
you live, and you'll learn and and and you get your your your your
site straight. You make a couple of mistakes and then you know what not
to do in the future. And that's what we're gonna do as we move
forward. We're moving on to Linn Brook March twenty fourth, and we I
think we may or may not have a cap TV taping March tenth, which
you're gonna want to check out. Again. I know this this thing goes
worldwide, so you know, check it out on Twitch, check it out
on YouTube. And until then, in between time, I've been your host,
