• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Over the years, hundreds and.
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: Hundreds anything you can think of. Yeah, right here, we're
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: not talking about that today, brother, We're talking about wrestling figures.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Hogan is one of the most toyotic wrestling superstars of
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: all time. So much product we're not gonna talk about,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: like the toothbrushes or the camera. We're just talking figures.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Figure related and there's still a lot of stuff, and
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: that's why we're breaking it up into nineteen eighty to
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the year two thousand and.
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: Obviously he only has that kind of merchandise because of
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: the man he was and the impact that he had
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: on professional wrestling, the crossover right movies and television rock
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: and wrestling MTV. I asked Park early, did you you
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: got to meet Hogan one time?
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: I met him once that I can remember, once in
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: person that I actually spoke. I saw him a few times,
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: but spoke to him. It was the Hall of Fame
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: that Bruce Barbara Beefcake was put in. Hogan was inducting
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: him and also producing the segment sort of. He wasn't
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: really the producer, but he was putting it together and
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: they really wanted to do the stunt where they cut
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: one of the extra's hair. Was trying to find that.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: Was almost creative pros Eric James, and he was getting
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: married within the three weeks. The whole thing got scrapped,
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: and I don't think that was Hogan's faul. I think
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: I think that was a Beefcake idea that kind of spiraled.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: Find the Broskin.
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: I met Hulkogan at the same time at a signing.
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: It's well documented right here on YouTube. We made kind
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: of a mini documentary about it a few years back.
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: Check it out. We'll put it down below. I can't
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: recommend it enough. It was an autograph signing in two
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: thousand and two at the famous Times Square Toys r US.
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: Very impactful day, something I'll never forget. But the next
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: time we met him in the time we met him
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: in a professional, you know kind of spot was when
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: the uh we were only extras ever once before we
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: got signed and it was two thousand and five and
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: Massive Square Garden and it was a raw SmackDown super show.
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: I believe on that episode he was there because he
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: joined Shawn Michaels or he accepts his partnership as a
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: tag team and they're going to face the Son and
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: Davari at the upcoming Backlash pay per view.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: And I met, you know, meeting him in an ortgraph
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: sign which just I don't know what different about this,
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: but I'll never forget it. Like meeting him backstage that
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: day he was walking towards us and it's just like
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: literally larger than life and like he had he definitely
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: had like the ball was on and just it was
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: surreal and it felt like I was looking up at
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: him and it like never ended, and he shook her hand,
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: his big giant hand, and it was just like whoa.
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: It was just a moment that really really really stuck
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: with me.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like Brian said, we met him in two thousand
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and two Times Square Toys r us On that Hulk
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: still rules DVD when Hogan comes back. It's wild, that's crazy.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: We're not gonna talk about any of those figures. We're
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: not gonna talk about that NW figure today because Hogan
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: was such an important piece and still is an important
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: piece of my history. You know, at WrestleMania thirty five,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: when Brian and I won the tag team titles, I'm
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: in my gear in the entrance gear, I walk out
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: of locker poo, do I see Hull Coke And I'm like,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: I gotta take a picture with Helk. We've met plenty
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: of times by then, but just the fact that I'm
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: at WrestleMania, at the show that he he made famous,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: that he'd headlined many times that I saw him headlined,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: we needed to take that picture. And it's a picture
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that I'll charge forever. Where was Kurt Hawkins that he
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: missed this opportunity. That's a great, great question.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: You said it was the tag team when you guys
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: won this.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: That's the same week in that you met him. Mark.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: It's it's all, oh my god, Yeah, you're right, Yeah, okay, wow.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: And lastly, I do want to good little shout out
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: here while we're on YouTube plugging away here, there's an
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: awesome blog when I got to go to Hogan store
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: about two three years ago with Kanik and shoes meet him.
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: I got all four of my Hasbro signed. It's super
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: well documented, like just pretty epic. Great choice, man, something
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: I'll never ever regret doing. Man, holy smokes, especially around Yeah.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: But you know I've said it before. If it wasn't
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: for Hulk Hogan, I don't think I would have ever
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: found wrestling, which leads to finding a career pro wrestling.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Between defining you guys as friends, finding the podcast, finding
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: my wife all do to Hulk Hogan. Because Hulk was
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: someone like you saw him. He was larger than life
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and you could play with the figures. But then it
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: wasn't just you know, watching on TV. You could go
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to a live event. You can go to the nasacal
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: see a mass reguard and see him.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: M m.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: It was like, you can't you know, you can't watch
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Batman the cartoon or Batman played the figures. Yeah, maybe
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: you can see the movie. You can't really meet the
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: real Batman, you know what I'm saying.
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: Why I kind of like Power Rangers so much because
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: they were real people, right, same with wrestling obviously, Yeah, Hgan.
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: I mean the first time I ever saw wrestling ever
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: was wrestling at six, and he had lines of a warrior,
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: so super impactful in my life as well.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: Do you remember do you guys remember like maybe a
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: memory where that that really stands out in your head
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: being a huge Hogan fan, like either wanting the shirt
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: or wanting the LGN or what was the like the
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: fan memory that you had.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many like my I think one
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: of my early birthday invitations that I sent to people
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: is like me dressed his Hogan you know, like holding
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: a little applause Hogan figure in front of a Hogan poster.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: I still to this day it's a you know, I've
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: gotten a new poster, but I still have that poster,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: my childhood poster I still have in my office today.
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I'm you know, I have a picture
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: of me dressed ASMM for a Halloween and I'm probably
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: like six. I remember watching Rumble ninety one where he
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: wins with a bunch of my friends, you know, staying
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: up late, thinking that was like super.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Cool and obviously wanting him to win, right because everyone
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: loved Holk Hogan.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: Things like that, you know, I remember even like just
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: Suburban Commando and Mister Nanny were so what he's in
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: a movie?
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Like how surreal that was, you know, for the time,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: you know, And unfortunately, you know, when he passed away
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: this year, it's like I couldn't but it's a day
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: you never thought would happen, Like a piece of your
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: childhood passed away. Right, Like this guy Hogan, he you know,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: redefined the business once twice, right, the red and yellow
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: then the nWo black and white Hollywood style, Like he
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: was someone that we loved as a kid for being
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the good guy, but they loved as a teenager for
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: being the bad guy. You know.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was just gonna say my I've said this before.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: I wasn't really allowed to watch wrestling, so what I
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: watched in the eighties and really early nineties was like
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: me sneaking it out of the people's houses. So you know,
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: I didn't have that kind of fandom until later on.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: So my big Hogan fandom was the nWo. He was
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: the first, right Obviously I went to shows and stuff
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: back then, but it just wasn't like I didn't have
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: the sheets or the curtains, right, But but nWo Hogan
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: was like, was my favorite wrestler at the time.
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: So yeah, and like obviously we got to say, like
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: at the time of this recording, we're coming right off
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: of John Cena's retirement and you're seeing all these you know,
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: this generation of wrestling fans that he's impacted that he
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: was like their guy, you know, the post a.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Boy of what pro wrestling was like. That wasn't for
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: us because like we were colleagues with John and we're
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: a generation removed from that. But Hogan was our generation,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: hands down, you know, the John Zena of our childhood,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the be all end All post A boy.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: And in a pretty long career, just like John.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Listen, a long career, a legendary career, Hall of Fame career,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: some Hall of Fame figures, and before we talk about
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: all those Hogan figures. Let's hear from our good friends
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: at Ringside Collectives. This episode of the Major Wrestling Figure
• 11:36

• 12:04
  Speaker 5: Yes, Hogan Rustling Superstars and New Rustling rings It sold separately.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Ringside has sold so many Hogan figures over the years.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: I mean they had has Bros. Put the three for
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: ten sail back of the day. They had ju stuff. Brother,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: we'll get into it, unbelievable stuff Mittel's. But this figure
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: is not a Intel. This figure a lot of people
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: don't even know exists. It is the nineteen eighty one
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: rookie figure Hulk Hogan Popey figure. To me, this is
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: the holy Grail. I do not have this. It loose.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I'm looking for Mint on card wa. Sam actually kind
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: of blown away. You don't own this man on card?
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: Actually, now talk about it.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: If you're looking on YouTube, you can see it comes
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: with the trading card of Hulk. That's actually very very
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: rare that the Hogan actually comes with the proper Hogan card.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: I'm looking what would be on the other people.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Like random guys in the sets card. I don't know
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: if it's random guys from a set or just not Hogan.
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: The card image and the card itself trading card don't
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: always match up. So this version is obviously the desired one.
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: That card itself raw or slabbed, very lucrative as well
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: as this figure just period, you know.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: So super pro wrestlers only in Japan. Hogan was big
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: in Japan. He certainly was, and this is his first figure,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: his rookie figure. Minimal articulation, the arms go up and down.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: But for nineteen eighty one it's fine. I think that's
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: like insane. Actually there's something. And now junk Shop Dog
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five is making very similar.
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: Figures and so great. It's so the little shout out,
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: it's incredible. Yeah, it's a it's a great thing.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Neither of you own this.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: Right, no, And at one point I tried to elect
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: the Pope's loose and I did own this loose.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: But I had since moved on.
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: For dude, there is crazy a PSA seven of this
• 14:11
  Speaker 6: whole Hogan card on either right now just the card
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: slab PSA seven ten thousand dollars or best offer.
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: Oh right. So there is another rule in our channel
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: where where I went to Roy Lucier's house and he
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: owns this in a in a case signed by Hogan's
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: Christine condition with the Hogan card, and he tells a
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: story on the vlog and I forget what it was,
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: but like he took a stab on buying this because
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: the card alone, even if the figure wasn't like condition
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: or something like that, the card alone could have paid
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: for the figure.
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and then that vlog I mentioned at Hogan Shop
• 14:56
  Speaker 6: is when he got its signs. You can see all
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: that documented if you really want to get into it.
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: But he smokes.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: Here's my two questions though, this figure that we're looking at,
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: it's confusing me because it's like sideways and I don't know.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: If yeah, I don't know if that's just the image.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I feel like there there wasn't a bubble inserted. I
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: actually never opened a true Pope, so who knows.
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: I'm looking at pictures online. It I'm kind of pretty
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: sure there was no like blister in there, really just
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: lucy like that. Yeah, but not that's like very sideways.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Huh. Maybe this one there's a stand.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: There's a stand hands and men on card for fifteen
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: hundred bucks. Anyway, Wow, that's not bad. Okay, you know
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: what it is? There must be a variant oppose, like
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: a little dip in his where his legs are that
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: there's plastic to hold it.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: I can see that on this picture.
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: Oh so's he's just he's shooking up. So that's not
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: a variant. Yeah, you can see the dip. He's just
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: kind of shook it up because he.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Got it, got it? Gay? Yeah, okay, wow, but you
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: know there's a variant with the car to learning here
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: as we go.
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, great figure.
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: Holy Grail Hogan figure not a loosermon in card won
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: on eBay as of this recording.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: That is wild. Yeah. Well, here's one that's very very plentiful.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I think it's the most popular wrestling figure of all time.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: It's the nineteen oh yeah, the nineteen eighty four l
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: JN Hulk Hogan. Now watch right here, you're seeing the
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: one that comes to the stand. The Classic five back.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: This was re released many times. We're not going to
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: talk about all the different times it was carried forward.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: But this is the definitive wrestling figure, so much so
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: that all these years later you could buy it and
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Target thanks to matell and l Jan.
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: And I think that just solidifies the statement I'm about
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: to say, it's the most famous wrestling figure of all time.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: This is a figure said I have autographed. I also
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: have one graded. I had so many of these as
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: a kid. Because we'll talk about later, like he comes
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: to two packs, or like Hogan's just the guy. They
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: keep making the same hole.
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: Like every kid's playroom or bedroom that I went to
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: growing up had this figure, you know. Yes, kids of
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: the eighties, kids of the nineties. It was just distributed
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: for so long too, like you said, in so many
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: different ways.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: It is crazy to think that forty years later you
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: can walk in a store and get this exact.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: That's how iconic is Like, and tell me that conscious
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: choice to not sculpt some new cool modern one to
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: look like the Dusty or whatever. They just replicated this exact,
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: you know.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: But you stand this next to a big rubber guy
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: or one of the new el Jan's and it looks
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: like it fits.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Well, that's that's the goal. What about this one, guys?
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: It is the nineteen eighty five L Jan Toys sixteen
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: inch Hula Cogan.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Ionics. This screams wrestling, screams.
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: I never own this in my life and I as
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: a kid. You need an adult collector, you need this.
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: It's cool, It's very cool. So there's him, there's Piper.
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: Hogan has the Soft Goods shirt. Like to me, this
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: feels like a larger than life Hogan's. He's kind of
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: skinny in that series went eljet here even though he's
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: sixteen inches, he's he's muscular, he's tan. He's got that
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: title belt for me. This is nice, hot dog Tan.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I wonder how good is the soft Goods in that?
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Is it? It's good, it's good soft goods, all right.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: I never had the Piper growing up, so I would
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: just use this Hogan and find any sort of toy
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: that was a similar size and have Hoganmate, you guys
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: are just best friends. We were buddies. But a great
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: figure if you had a big if we see it
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: from time to time in our vintage toy store out, Yeah,
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: it's a big piece. Find on the bubble that window.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: That'd be nice.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah on eBay right now, five hundred bucks in the package,
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: but it's not. And then there's a lot for like
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty one hundred and fifty out of
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: the package. So it's I mean pretty reasonable to be honest.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Right, that's not for forty year old not the ball, Right,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: it's not a doll is that? Actually? Watch it?
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: Hey, it's it's doll ish.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: What about this nineteen eighty five Bendy's hull Cogan. Originally
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: the l Jan's were supposed to be this size. When
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: they were bringing them to show them off to potential buyers,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: they had the two ups and the customer's like, no, no, no,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: I want these giant ones. L Jane eventually did make
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: these Bendis. To me, they were great to like, bring
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: to your grandma's house, bring in the car.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: I feel like you're the only person I ever met
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: that has like an affinity for these.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I love them. I have them all. There's also a
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Hogan out there with blue knee pads. I hat this
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: this reference shot here the unpunched carting. Holy smoke, woo
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: love this figure. Yeah.
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: I remember we used some of them as side characters
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: in our bed.
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: We didn't like they're not you know, the cast to say,
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: they're just people in the background at the Max.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, but they didn't really fit. They were
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: all taller than has Brosi and Galoobs when we so
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: they only fit with themselves.
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: Beyond the al Jaans, the thumb wrestlers were like the
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: thing that I saw everywhere growing up.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: The kids just had I absolutely loved him.
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: I'm sure we're going into where we're gonna shove our
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: thumbs coming up.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: With First, we're gonna talk about this hill Billy Jim
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: and Hulk Cogan two pack with the tag team titles.
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: What was your favorite Billy Jim and Hulk Hogan tag title? Man,
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: I'm sure they teamed. I well, they definitely weren't. They
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: definitely teams in this era there. That was his gimmick, right,
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: he was o'gan's friend.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you had some added value with the titles, but
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: they never held the straps.
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: Still cool of two packs and pro wrestling figures, It's
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: just it's a match made in heaven.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: If you're a Hulk can complete as Mint on card.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: You gotta get all these different combinations of things.
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: Those things are so big in person. The tag team
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: box heads, Oh they're huge, they're massive.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: Think about how big an LG is and it's double
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: the size.
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: But then that the top part, like where it says
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: wrestling tachan is just so unnecessarily massive.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's a lot. Well something that is not massive.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: It's very small. Actually, the thumb wrestlers check this out.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: There's a Hogan big John stud There's other combinations. There's
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: there's versus Iron, Chic versus Piper. So you can create
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: all these fantasy matches. Are you playing with yourself? You
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: thumb wrestling yourself? Do you give it to a buddy?
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: What do you do?
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: You?
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: No, you have to know.
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: You take on a friend at school, you stink he's
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: a too damn backpack and you challenge somebody.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: On the playground.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: Did you do that?
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Brian? Probably this is more like my brothers age, like
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: we'll have stuff. That's why, Like I have like a good,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: you know, memory of it all. But yeah, these were everywhere,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: and looking back on the giant gaping holes in the
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: butts is a little strange, but I get it. It is
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: what it is to you know, to perform the thumb
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: wrestling action that you gotta do what you gotta do.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: I'm a suck gaping holes in the butt, be honest, guys,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: I ignored.
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: The holes in the butt to be honest. Like I said, I,
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: I just use these as as characters in our fig
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: fed they I thought that they're set up good. You
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: can do leg drops you they were very movable, right,
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: so you can. You can put them in souplexes things
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: like that.
• 22:38
  Speaker 6: And Rosky your brand new tour room. These are on display.
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: They're going to be on display.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and the l J section just kind of sitting
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: on the edge of the glass. Show that's still possible.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: And Yeah said absolutely.
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think about Broski's eighties collection. I think
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: about these because these were in prominent position in your right.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: They're hanging out, They're sitting right there. Yeah.
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: I don't know how, but like they don't stand, so
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: I don't know what else what we do. You gotta
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: make them sit, baby, you gotta make them sit. What
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: about this two pack.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Bendy's two pack Hogan and jay Y d Well, you
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: know there's a two pack you're talking about, Brian, I feel.

  Speaker 1: I must have bought a bunch of different two packs. Yeah,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't have everybody, but I had most of them. Yeah,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I guess you can't just have one. You gotta have

• 25:01
  Speaker 1: that's articulated figure. We'll talk about that later on the show.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: How did we get screw it out? Ahobile? I think
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: it would have sold.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: It looks like the sixties Batman Batmobile with with the
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: weird like fender thing in the back.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: There's no way this wasn't for something else.
• 25:18
  Speaker 6: And they just threw a Hulk hoging in and put
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: an h honest right, I'm not sure this guy maybe from.
• 25:26

• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Well, what about Hogan's hog right here in the unreleased
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: Hulk Mobile?
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: You know you know, it's weirder than a guy driving
• 25:41
  Speaker 6: around in a car in wrestling trunks, a guy riding
• 25:44
  Speaker 6: a motorcycle in wrestling trunks.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Now this has been on the secondary burn your leg. Yeah,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: this has been for sale before. I did not purchase it.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: If someone like Elgon had to have had these vehicles
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: for some other properly, that's true, Brian reusing him. I
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: refuse to believe it.
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: I'm making that up, but I refuse to believe that
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: they're just like Hogan's hog Here, let's go.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: In the eighties. You could do no wrong. You but
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: a man is underwear on a motorcycle. It's a big deal. Sure,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: kids use their imagination, why not?
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: But anyway, I'm okayou that these didn't come out. Yeah,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, that's why even me unreleased Guy Hogan, Guy.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: I just when this was available, I'm like, eh, I
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: don't really need this has no like sentimental value. The
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: metals may believe it's.
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: Also not in like a magazine or something like that.
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: You know that like adds to the lore. We know
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: that through like the Greg Valentine stuff, you know what
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: I mean. If there's things like.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: That where there was anticipation for it, and then they
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: never delivered.
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: That's a different story. This is just you're learning about this.
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: When you're in your late thirties, you don't care as much.
• 26:56
  Speaker 6: All right, what about this?
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: I love this nineteen eighty seven Stretch Wrestlers Hulk Hogan.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: I call these I as a kid, I called them Stretchyes,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: I got them for Christmas one year. I love them.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: They have soft goods clothing. I'll tell you what, though,
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: don't pull too hard because they will explode and you'll
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: have white residue all over your face. Like I said,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: would be partying in the eighties.
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: Very upset if that were to happened at the Meyer's household,
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: If my kids did something like that, it's.
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: Gotta be the most poisonous toy in the history of toys.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: And just like I know Brosky has these all and
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: they're like gelopitated in the box. No, mine are actually
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: no minor pristine in the box. But like they're not
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: like they still look like shit. Oh they look hard. Yeah,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: I'm saying they don't age as well. No, they don't
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: age well. And like I and there, you gotta be
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: very careful them. Like I've never even removed them, like
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: I've taken them out of the box and make sure
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: they're actually in the box. And I didn't get calmed,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: you know, because I got them years ago, uh, probably
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: like the early two thousands on some like random website
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: I found. I'm like, there's no way these are like
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: just in stock on some website, and they were. I'm like,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: this has to be too good to be true. So
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: I the exact them. I slid open the tape and
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: then you could just see inside it and they were
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: in there. So I just closed the tab and I'm like,
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: all right, that's it. Wow, there's only like eight or
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: so something like that. Yeah, when you were little guys,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: not for me.
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: Did you play with them? Like I have a match
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: or I don't.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: I haven't even remember things, yeah, because you can't. Like
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I guess I did play a little bit. The heads
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: actually are pretty realistic looking, right, so they look cool.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: I just I mean I had the Playmates ones of
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: WWF and then just Stretch Armstrong.
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: This toy technology is around for a long long time.
• 28:47
  Speaker 6: It's not really that innovative, but not my favorite to me.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: The because I grew up with these, I had for
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Christmas like, I just they're iconic to me, of course
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: because I grew up on them. Yeah, what about this
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: some more thumb wrestlers. This time it's the Mega Powers
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Hulk Hogan and the Macho Man Randy Savage. This is
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: one I would like to get men on card.
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: Not a clue that that existed in a two pack,
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: the two of them.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: I would love that.
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: And really that's like, just come in Randy and hold
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: like they didn't even really like touch at that time,
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: right kind of yeah, maybe right before Mega Powers, right
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: right before Mega Powers.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is two obviously two tippy top guys.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: So if you're doing a thumb wrestling charge with their friend,
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: like you're kind of screwed if like you're Nick Life
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: old coffeyr friends Hogan, but this this time Hogan vers
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Savage is kind of kind of even random.
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: Just thing I'm looking at here, two guys in yellow
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: boots in the same two pack. Can you even name
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: a modern day pro wrestler wears yellow boots that cannot Yeah,
• 29:57
  Speaker 6: things have changed.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: John lorniis would be real piste off.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Oh oh man, what colors you wear? This is unreleased
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: guys nineteen eighty seven. L Jane Toys, Muscle Grip whole Cogan.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: I actually own this. This is a it's larger than
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: a l Jaan figure. What you do is you kind
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: of like grip and squeeze the legs and the arms
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: raise up. There was him and Macho man. There they're
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: featured on the back of the championship title. So that's
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: where like the first time I knew they were coming
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: out but never came out. Is that belt molded on?
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: The belt is molded on? Yes, interesting, Yeah, there's Hogan
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: and Macho again, like you squeeze the legs of arms. Eh,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: what is that? You know? Do we really need to
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: be talking about that? I just sometimes I think.
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: Toymakers make action figures and they want action and they're
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: just figuring out, you know. I mean, I'm sure we're
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: gonna be talking about some figures later on that vibrate
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: for no reason.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: So right, well what about this? Do you know? Not
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: many people know this? So l jan the big rubber guys,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: the dog toys, right, they were gonna have articulated figures.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Check this out. Hull Hogan articulated figure and like for
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: the time, pretty damn articulate for nineteen eighty seven. Dude,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: this would have been this is something I think of.
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: It came to fruition and could have been a game changer, right,
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: one hundred percent, Yeah, one hundred percent.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: I have this graded. Uh it's a oh my centerpiece

  Speaker 1: a King Kung Bundy. I've seen things for Junkyard Dog.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: So we don't know how far this got what the
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: actual plans.
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: Were, like, very similar to a G I Joe, right,
• 31:46
  Speaker 6: but way bigger, way bigger, way bigger.
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: Very well the ones you have our prototypes and they're
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: way bigger.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Is that a too up situation? Have been smaller? No? No, no,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: because it's not like a two up bigger. It's just
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: a big than like what a G I Joe is.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: You know, I would say it's a little a little
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: bigger than it has Bro. Maybe same size. I don't
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: have him measured up right next to me, But they're
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: not way bigger than Joe.
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: No size.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: No G I Jo's are tiny. Jo's are not that?
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Do you just think like a.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: Little bigger than it has Bro.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: A quarter or whatever, tiny and skinny I guess they're
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: so skinny, so skinny this whole. Yeah, you're wrong, you're
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: describing it wrong.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: G I Joe is three and three quarters.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: This, Well, this is bigger than three and three quarters.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: Right, bigger than it has bro. So I'm saying it's
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: probably would match a he Man figure, which is super
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: popular at this time. That's fair, that makes total sense.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: What about this the Superstar Slam Assortment Collects edition Hull Cogan? Now, Bro,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: this rocked my world two times one when I got like,
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: to me, this is Hogan jacked Tan right with the title.
• 33:01
  Speaker 6: This Cosmetically this figure is so much better than the
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: other one. It's just not as famous.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: As a kid. Though, I didn't even know the red
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: and yellow existed, and I was like, it's kind of
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: weird Hogan's in red and white. But I still loved it, right,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: I still loved it. But I had no idea the
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: red and yellow existed. Like that is like it should
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: be the number one l JAM But for me, I
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: have no sentimental value too, I guess, and I think
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: that's exactly it.
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: Right, Like I said, this figure is way cooler, way thicker,
• 33:35
  Speaker 6: better pose than the real Yeah, yeah, it's just it's
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: just like I don't think people had this growing up
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: or knew it existed, so they don't have the attachment
• 33:43
  Speaker 6: to it.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: And now that I'm looking at I didn't realize that
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: only the white shirt comes to the title though. What
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: the Richard does not have the championship? Oh yeah, very
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: very interesting. But like this, I wonder if I have
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: that on my lucies. And then you know the Grand
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: Toys eighty nine Hulk Cogan, you know, like these are
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: all kind of the same thing, you know, like right there,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: you know, what a weird thing.
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: To release in eighty nine when there's no way he
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: wore red tights for the past five years.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: So if you're like ljn if you're an L. Jane
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: completist or like, it gets really tricky with the boxer.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Even then, it was just all those different the box
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: arts right there for essentially the same figure. So and
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: you have both of these, right, Brian, Yeah, I definitely
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: have all three Hogan l Jans, But now I'm curious
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: if I have that title on that white guy. Yeah,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I have the title on them either.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: I got to take a look. Oh my gosh, thanks,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: I mean the l jns. We grew up on them, certainly.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: You know we love them. We've created big rubber guys
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: collectmajor dot com right, That's how much we love them.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Mattel brings them back in twenty twenty five. The fact
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: that you could walk into Target right now and get
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: that Hoke Hogan from nineteen eighty four.
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: You know, I feel like an LJA and amania is
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: going on right now because of all these things.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent, and yeah it's wild that that
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: first Hogan, while technically not the better figure, is the
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: more iconic figure.
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: But I think we did a fair job of explaining why.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: I agree.
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: You w W talking about the wire, start thinking enough
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: to be talking tough the rules, brother, feel the power
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: of wol comania.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: You w W talking wresfers are big, exasty, fighting prankfas
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: douse the real voice of the warrior.
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: Looksen got be a light battle light as w W
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: talking wrestlers start biking enough to be talking to What about?
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: This is where everything really changes? So many people says
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: my real wheelhouse. This might be where it all started
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: for me. Brother. If that other Hogan was the number
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: one figure of all time, this might be number two
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: or this is number one, depending on who you ask me.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: The reason one Hull Cogan Bro.
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: Look at packaging.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: I know, man, whoa unbelievable.
• 36:09
  Speaker 6: The happiness that that brings me is like, it's just
• 36:13
  Speaker 6: it's why I have them on the walls, Like it
• 36:15
  Speaker 6: literally makes me happy.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: I have this uh autograph, to have this graded. I
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: have the the pre production green standard tech like this
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: is my Hogan Gorilla press Hogan, Like, oh I love.
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: The Hasbro's baby Yeah, timeless, so fun. The body slam
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: mechanism was like unbelievable at the time, right, you were like,
• 36:40
  Speaker 6: what this is? This is this is surreal. My wrestling
• 36:44
  Speaker 6: figures are body slaming each other?
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: Well, Gorilla press slam?
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: You come on, It's it's just it's perfect. And like
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: these actions like they did kind of work if you
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: put someone in there and release it like Hogan get thrown,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Jake the snake out of the ring. You know what
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: I'm saying.
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: It might sound ridiculous to somebody who wasn't of our age,
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: or maybe he's younger, but like when you had Hasbro's
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: at this time, you were using those mechanisms. I sometimes
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: I was certainly like if Jimmy Snooker jumped off the top.
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: I was doing the thing, the jumper action, like I mean,
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: that was real.
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: That added like some fun play to it.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Really totally. And when Zombie Sailor made his heels and
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: faces and he asked Brian and I what poses do
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: we want? I said, I want the Hogan gorilla press slam,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: which I wish he would do for more guys. He hasn't. Really,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: it's just so iconic, Like I have a tattoo. It's
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: not a Hogan, but of like a a wrestling figure,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: fantasy figure doing the gorilla press slam like this is
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: just like to me, it's my childhood. These hasbros, the
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: packaging Hogan. It's oh, it's like the perfect storm in
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: this figure right here? What about this? Who had this?
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: The Wrestling Buddies Hulk? Now, who had this? Some may
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: say this is not a figure. I say, yes it is.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: It's a toy.
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: It's a toy because I mean, yes, you can beat
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: the living shit out of it, but you also take
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: it to bed at night and cuddle with it, so
• 38:14
  Speaker 6: it's a pillow. But the main purpose if anyone asked
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: you wouldn't you wouldn't admit the cuddling with it, right,
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: you just tell people that you wrestled Hulkogan in your
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: basement for an hour.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Getting these for Christmas nineteen ninety. I'll never forget going
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: downstairs with my brother. You know, we had Macho King,
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: we had Hogan Warrior, a million dollar man. And what
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: was so cool about it is like, like you said,
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Brian Russell Minniu six, the first time you saw you know,
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Hogan and Warrior. Now they both they both have the
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: winged eagle. Because there were Hogan fans, there were Warrior fans.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't be fair if one had the title the other didn't,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: which was a great call to me, truly, icon of
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: can It's unfortunate that something like this could. You know,
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: big Shots is doing a great job with their buddies,
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: but they could never be in retail with these giant boxes.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: It's just a different time. But I will say this,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: in seeing this and talking about this.
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: I hope that kids in that age are getting big
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: shots for Christmas this year, and I hope that about
• 39:09
  Speaker 6: them in their basements.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: Man, I absolutely hope. So what about this next applause,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: PVC Hogan, I had both of these.
• 39:19
  Speaker 6: I had the riped shirt one for sure. When I
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: think of these, I think of like a little Mom
• 39:26
  Speaker 6: and pop greeting cards store. Yes, as things like this.
• 39:31
  Speaker 6: There's still one of my town at sells these, not
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: the Wish, but like one like a still a store
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: like that.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: You know. I feel like they're few and far between
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: these days. But yeah, the one on the stand came first,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: and then they also made they had these like as
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: pencil toppers, as key chains. We're not gonna talk about
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: all that stuff, but these were these are technically figures.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: I have these in my toy room. M yep.
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: I've never in my life seen these until really what
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: to me?
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: They're iconically you put them on like your birthday cake
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: or something.
• 40:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's cool because Applause made like so many brands.
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: Like right like this, Yes, the original Funko in a way, anyway.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: We should do some major pod ones of these. What
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: do you think? All right? What about the nineteen ninety
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: one hulk Hogan has bro here he is baby? Oh yeah,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: the hulkster hug one that I hated as a kid
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: but now I.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: Love, Yes, I mean as a kid standing there on
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: the stand.
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I've said like I would use this
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: as like the one he'd pose or like maybe his
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: entrance or something.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: The pose.
• 40:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but there wasn't when I was I love to
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: play with that's for sure. And you know, hug, you
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: know this was a failure because no other has had
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: this mechanism, so clearly they were like, this was a mistake.
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: And there it's not that bad. It's it's hard to stand.
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: It doesn't it doesn't balance that great.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Looking at my autographed one right above me, it's it's beautiful.
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: It's pretty bulky.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: I bet you.
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: It costs a little bit more money, right, But I
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: thought it was.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: Weird about this is like there's no like lever or
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: anything that back to make his arms open and shut,
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: you know what. I like, it's hard to do.
• 41:21
  Speaker 6: It's just dumb though, Yeah, it's just And also I
• 41:25
  Speaker 6: have a special case on this one because it comes
• 41:27
  Speaker 6: so forward out of the package and like all.
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: The That's what I'm thinking. So maybe something like manufacturing,
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: why is it cost.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: Fit the shippers too? Well? Yeah, good point, good point.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: What about the talking wrestler.
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: Talking this and Warrior still having behind me had him
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: when I was a kid, brother iconic to me. I
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: mean none of them sound good anymore these days.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: There's no such thing. I don't think No, I don't
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: think so.
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: I wonder if if somebody who's like really technical person
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: could go in and like fix it, you know, they'd
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: have to like take it.
• 42:04
  Speaker 6: I bet there is like a toy mechanic that could do.
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: That makes me wish they made more of these, like
• 42:11
  Speaker 6: a savage.
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: My absolute to two top probably five favorite things in
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: my room is it is this and the Ultimate Warrior.
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: It's prominently displayed right in the middle. Everyone sees it
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: when they walk in. It's so eighties. It's so cool,
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: it's so colorful.
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: I I did not have either as a kid. What
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: did not have? Either of them?
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: I did not either.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: Wow. Something else I didn't have is the Star Toys.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: Good Holy ship. This is scary.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: That is terrifying. I I love these. They are terrifying.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: They have real hair, Like what's even weird? They have
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: like real tape for their wrist tape. Yeah, it's fly.
• 43:00
  Speaker 6: We've covered these a lot over the years on the
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: show because they come up from time to time of
• 43:05
  Speaker 6: strange items.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Man. Yeah, first Hogan with the cross and chain. First,
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: I thought it was a hole in give them their
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: flowers for that effort. But man, he also comes with
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: the Winged Eagle title and because of the American flag
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: that he can't hold. Oh my gosh, that might be.
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: One of the best belts available now at.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Belt nice belt. Yeah. There was also the mini Lutrador's
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Star Toys figure. I do not have this is that
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: I believe so I don't have these in my collection.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Is tell you a thing about this?
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: Look how much Harry has on the top of.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's why I'm saying, what is that? It's all good? Well,
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: what about the nineteen ninety two assortment five has Bro
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: Like this?
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: This is my one ten Top Guy ten Hulk Old Jack,
• 44:05
  Speaker 6: great pose, you can literally do anything. You can kind
• 44:08
  Speaker 6: of make them do the the celebration post.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: Dude. Yeah, my fit was still my my favorite Hull
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: Cogan figure. I think ever, I think it's great.
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: Look at the box. These boxes so far have been awesome.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, great, great art work on there. I think this
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: is the best Hogan. I don't. It's not my favorite,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: but when you really look at all four of them,
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: or all five of them, it's certainly updates.
• 44:30
  Speaker 6: It's the best. I'm my wall it's yellow paint ping.
• 44:35
  Speaker 6: Oh my god, it's the thing of beauty. How many
• 44:38
  Speaker 6: how many times see Hulk do the Hull complex in
• 44:39
  Speaker 6: a match?
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: I can't think of one.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: All those medias he won with the Hull Complex. What
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: about the Royal Rumble Wrestling ring discounts because it includes
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: hul Cogan love this? Got this for Christmas?
• 44:55
  Speaker 6: I always I guess now, in like what we know
• 44:59
  Speaker 6: about the toy business, I feel like it to put
• 45:02
  Speaker 6: all these anchors in this one boxes nuts, right.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So for those who don't know, it's this Royal
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: rubber ring that comes with six figures. But then they
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: made these other packs.
• 45:14
  Speaker 6: But all the top guys that are in the ring,
• 45:16
  Speaker 6: literally every top guy available at the time comes with
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: this ring.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: Like this should through like Greg Valentine with the ring.
• 45:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, like you got beefcake and the bushwhackers and stuff
• 45:27
  Speaker 6: for these packs they're supposed to buy. And they were
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: like kind of pegwarmers. By the way, now that we're
• 45:31
  Speaker 6: really talking out loud, so odd decision. But yeah, I
• 45:37
  Speaker 6: to this day, I still love this.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: I loved having as a kid, you would like bash
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: this little like thing and then to bring with it,
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: pounds from underneath and eliminate wrestlers with.
• 45:47
  Speaker 6: Like lead heavy metal little things. You would stick to
• 45:52
  Speaker 6: the bottom of them, weigh them down, and then that
• 45:55
  Speaker 6: would help with the bashing.
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: That's kind of cool.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Now you don't have this now, Brian. I remember Kaz
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: gifted it to be and then in cold it I
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: sold it. Oh my god, why'd you do that? I
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: don't I have no place to put it. It was
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: just sitting in the box. I just don't know. You crazy,
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: I have, but I don't think they're like it now.
• 46:17

  Speaker 1: too soon, brother, And there's a like there's a little
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: ball inside. This was like bash it on the floor
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: was a bounce up or something. Oh yeah, you know
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, that's trying too hard and too
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: close to the tonka. We got no. Yeah, so there
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: there's warriors make the snake didn't come out, so don't worry,
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: but I love it. This next figure that did come
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: out probably my least favorite Hogan of the Hasbro line.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: It's nineteen ninety three Sortman nine. We had a little
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: steroid trial Hogan who had a way to put out.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: Look at this. Nothing is great on this one. First
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: of all, the picture on the package. He looks crazy.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: No, he looks crazy, oiled up and jacked. So, first
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: of all, if it designs, if this figure was as
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: tan as the prototype was supposed to be, I think
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: it would have been fine. That's another thing. They had
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: the tan correct on the Hogan three. Why did Hogan
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: four backtrack? I don't know.
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know, mess up on the skin tongue.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is the only Hogan in the Hasbur
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: era that's in his traditional trunks. But it still has
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: the bandana. So if you're really being a stickler, you
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: can't have Hogan with no banana. I guess you can.
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: I mean why not.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: You could?
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: But do you kids see the bald head and it's like,
• 48:01
  Speaker 4: what the hell?
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know, Yeah, but listen, it's still a cool figure.
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, Hogan does do that punch, the big punch
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: in the comeback. It makes sense, but it's called it
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: was kind of cool to have a in ring Hogan
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: finally right without the shirt, but not.
• 48:19
  Speaker 4: Like this, not like this just just not tan enough
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: and and not really Jack. It kind of looks like
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: he's got a little fat there.
• 48:28
  Speaker 6: Come on, I mean it's not it's the Jake mechanisms.
• 48:32
  Speaker 6: Is not any of the Jake parts. But yeah, it's
• 48:33
  Speaker 6: not no fun. And actually they did reuse all this
• 48:37
  Speaker 6: for DBAs That's right. So Debass and Hogan do not
• 48:42
  Speaker 6: have the same body type.
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not at all. Works for Ted, not so much
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: for the Hulkster. Actually I think the Ted is great.
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: Actually yeah, all right. And the last Hasbro figure of
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: Hogan and the last WWF figure of Hogan before he
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: jumps ship and goes to Atlanta for WC is the
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety three mail Away exclusive Hull Cogan. This figure
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: is one that I did not have as a kid.
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: I didn't even you know, get that magazine to know
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: what's coming out.
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: Same for like missed it somehow, and I probably learned
• 49:21
  Speaker 6: about this like mess around on the internet like in
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: two thousand, two thousand and one.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: Really, I my local comic book store, LNS Comics had
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: it in the nineties. That's where I learned about it.
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: So and you didn't get it from them. I was
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: too priced.
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: It was probably thirty five bucks.
• 49:39
  Speaker 6: I want to say that, like FTC sold these in
• 49:42
  Speaker 6: that catalog for like one hundred dollars for fifteen years.
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: Oh my god.
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: So this is the one that got away from me.
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: Still even now, like when we were doing the podcast,
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: I want to say COVID time.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: Right before it was probably like two fifty right, it was, yeah.
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: One hundred and fifty hundred and eighty dollars. Yeah, and
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: a lot of the bag gets like seven hundred.
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: Okay, I just searched dvay in bag mail away Hogan
• 50:13
  Speaker 6: to twenty one hundred or best Off. There's a CIS
• 50:18
  Speaker 6: eighty five Hogan mail away three thousand, five hundred.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: Oh my god. So this Hogan is in his gear
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: from when he comes out autographed the bag.
• 50:31
  Speaker 6: He's autographed by Hulk eight grand or best Offer JSA
• 50:35
  Speaker 6: certified cool.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: So this is Hogan from WrestleMania nine. He comes out,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: he helps the hit Man. He ends up winning the title.
• 50:45
  Speaker 4: It's great, it's an interesting that.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: Makes it very cool.
• 50:47
  Speaker 6: And the fact that the Brett and the Taker of
• 50:50
  Speaker 6: dog Shit and have no real changes to it, like
• 50:52
  Speaker 6: this is a different figure, holy, different figure.
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: Holy smokes. I'm also talking out loudier about ten is
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: worse than Hogan four. Yeah the tan is horrible, yeah,
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: n but the coolness and the uniqueness of the gear
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: made it more special. Yeah.
• 51:08
  Speaker 4: You know, no black eye on there though he should
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: should have, you know, because wrestling a nineties needs a
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: black out.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: I R S and d Be jumped him brother. So guys,
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: that is it for w W F can you believe
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: think that, Like out loud, we're about to uh to
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: jump in for being honest and you got to be
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: honest with you guys.
• 51:32
  Speaker 6: Like you you're not still hell co maniac like die Hard.
• 51:36
  Speaker 6: When he goes to w W you kind of like
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: think Sean and Brad are cooler and you moved on
• 51:40
  Speaker 6: a little bit. But he feels old.
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: He feels old to you, yes, But when he goes
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: to w c W and he has the big parade
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: at Disney and head Bash of the Beach, I'm in okay,
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: but then that quickly fizzles, right, you know.
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: Well, they don't have any anybody for him to wrestle.
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: He's wrestling the Shark.
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: And I think we'll get to it kind of to
• 52:03
  Speaker 6: echo what Mark said, then Hollywood is like a whole
• 52:06
  Speaker 6: game changer.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: So but all right, let's go. Let's go to Atlanta.
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: When you when you mentioned that though, it is kind
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: of like the Cody thing because it was like, uh,
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: you know, people are maybe booing him, and then once
• 52:19
  Speaker 4: he jumps ship, it's like, oh, he's gotsome.
• 52:22
  Speaker 6: Right, and I think that's anything. Rest of fans get
• 52:24
  Speaker 6: a little fickle with that, or the old gym quartett
• 52:28
  Speaker 6: like how can I miss you if you never go away?
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Kind of you know what I mean kind of thing.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: You know, all right, let's go to Atlanta and w
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: C w.
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: W Nobody's most famous wrestlers performing their most famous moves.
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: All right, guys, w c W H the first figure, guys,
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: the first thing we're gonna show you. You have this,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: Brian the hero Head? Do you have a hero Head?
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: No?
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: I I thought these are unreleased for years until you
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: had it. I have them. That is so ugly. What
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: you don't want you don't want to Hogan foam head
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: on a bag to beat the ship your friend with.
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: It's like, because that's what these are a lot of
• 53:18
  Speaker 6: this stuff, you know, the brainchild of Jewish Lightning. Robbie
• 53:22
  Speaker 6: kaneoffs foam head boppers.
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: Like, what are you have to? This is designed to
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: hit your friend with? Correct? Like, what else is it for?
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: What are you going to? I mean it's Hogan's staying Invader. Correct.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: This would hurt guys. Yeah, oh man, no way, it wouldn't.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: It would hurt a lot, a lot, a lot. I
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: think they're cool Disway pieces.
• 53:46
  Speaker 6: I remember I don't remember which one, but you have
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: all that ship in your garage and one time I
• 53:52
  Speaker 6: went in there to get something and it was like
• 53:53
  Speaker 6: eye level.
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah you know what, Actually, I'm gonna take it back brusky. Uh,
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: Brian's right. It's ugly at shiite and and like I
• 54:05
  Speaker 4: guess you know, if somebody like you who collects like
• 54:08
  Speaker 4: really goes really deep with the collection, I can understand, Yeah,
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: but this is not the way my toy room is
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: set up. Like I wouldn't want this taking attention away
• 54:17
  Speaker 4: from other things.
• 54:18
  Speaker 6: But that said, if you're like a Hogan completist like
• 54:21
  Speaker 6: Michael and Pumer or something.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is an automatic strange, but I think it's
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: also a conversation piece. Someone comes to my toy room,
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: they see a bunch of plastic fiers, they see that,
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: what is that? Yeah?
• 54:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe you know it wouldn't fit in mind. No,
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't want to take an attention away from the
• 54:39
  Speaker 4: talking wrestler. For example.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: All right, well let's talk about series one Hull Cogan
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: original San toy makers, very similar to the l j
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: N with the big rubber guys, the the poses, the
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: no articulation. I didn't love them.
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 55:00
  Speaker 6: So you also have to like put yourself in the
• 55:02
  Speaker 6: time period of this, like there's like kind of no
• 55:04
  Speaker 6: wrestling figures right, like hasros are faded or very hard
• 55:09
  Speaker 6: to find, or like the green cards and not everyone
• 55:11
  Speaker 6: even knew they even existed. These come out, you know,
• 55:14
  Speaker 6: Bendy's are about to start. Maybe, so it was like
• 55:18
  Speaker 6: very exciting for me to see these on the shelves.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: I was very exciting, but then unlike so I like lied.
• 55:26
  Speaker 6: To myself like let's get excited about these. I don't
• 55:29
  Speaker 6: know if it was because of the paint or the
• 55:31
  Speaker 6: type of material. But I feel like if you just
• 55:33
  Speaker 6: like rubbed this against like sting, they would like the
• 55:36
  Speaker 6: paint would get off at each other, insane scuffing, like terrible,
• 55:40
  Speaker 6: like way more than al jan. I love these now
• 55:43
  Speaker 6: like there I have one of everybody displayed because they
• 55:47
  Speaker 6: just stay our standstills and they look great. But kid
• 55:49
  Speaker 6: can't play with these, it's unfortunately way.
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: So we did the entire history of these figures a
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: couple of years ago.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: Put it in the description and the hasbros too.
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: Yeh. It'll all be in there and all the.
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: Day today on YouTube with some major pod content.
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: But the thing about these nowadays is I think they
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: kind of stand the test of time. If you have
• 56:11
  Speaker 4: a minti version of them.
• 56:13
  Speaker 6: That you literally have to buy them and let them breathe.
• 56:16
  Speaker 6: And they're a great display peace. They all stand, they all.
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: Look kind of cool, and there's not there's not too many.
• 56:23
  Speaker 6: There's not it's not an overwhelming collection one of our characters,
• 56:29
  Speaker 6: but one of each guy.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: Not too bad. So this next one did not come out.
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: They tried to copy the l j N Stretch Wrestlers
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: and do their own unreleased brook Let's move on. We
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: don't even What are we even talking about? That's just
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: so bad. But least wrestling Buddy Well soft pillow Pals
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: this would have been cool. That's cool. It's missing a
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: logo on the shirt but very ugly faces faces very
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: But what about this also unreleased thirty six inch pollsable Wrestler.
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: That is cool. That would have been wild. That would
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: have been thirty six inches is big? Yeah, look up
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: like Hogan is a huge man like look at that photo.
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: What about this? Also unreleased, the talking Hull Cogan. This
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: would have been cool if he's just doing some sounds
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: a module that it's the same figure standing on him. Yeah, yeah, no,
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: still pretty cool.
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but I guess I've been talking. Yeah, it'd be cool.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: What about this nineteen ninety six we get hold that
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: wasn't he They had carry forwards where he's in different
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: two packs. We're not talking about unreal amount of carry
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: forwards and we were talking about that. What about this?
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: This is a new mold red and yellow Hogan cowboy boots.
• 57:54
  Speaker 6: I like this because at the time before the turn,
• 57:58
  Speaker 6: he was rocking this a like on nitro and stuff,
• 58:01
  Speaker 6: so it was fitting.
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: And then there's the the macho Man and Hulk Hogan
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: two backwards finally, and I do like that they did
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: the WOX The box.
• 58:12
  Speaker 6: Art is the red and yellow, which doesn't make any sense.
• 58:15
  Speaker 6: Well that's happened in the history of wrestling figures.
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: But yeah, so it summer in ninety six. He turns.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: And this is the first product, and this was an
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: FTC exclusive, I believe, and it was like a huge
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: deal to get your hands on this because it's the
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: first like NW product that kind of period beyond like
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: obviously like the T shirt and stuff, you know, But.
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: It's pretty clear that maybe it was definitely originally the
• 58:41
  Speaker 4: Babyface Hogan's.
• 58:42
  Speaker 6: Possible smiling Yeah, I guess I didn't really ever think
• 58:45
  Speaker 6: of that, but there could have been a pivot.
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: I prefer this next one, which was the KB Heels Hogan,
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: because this one has the beard. The other one doesn't
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: have the beard.
• 58:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah, and I loved that they call him heels and
• 58:57
  Speaker 7: Painted Faces series what heels Again, I would assume that's
• 59:02
  Speaker 7: Robbie Kanoff just being very involved in the business.
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: And like the chin strap is horrible, yes, but it's there.
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: At least it looks like.
• 59:13
  Speaker 6: Beggars can't be choosers type shit like you. Just thew
• 59:15
  Speaker 6: is so red hot. You want whatever it will give you,
• 59:18
  Speaker 6: just like, all right, screw you gotta do it.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: I do wish he was a bit more tan. Why
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: the company still holding out that.
• 59:24
  Speaker 4: Whole Hogan tan man that he is?
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: He is, pale, famous, white. Yeah, yes, this one. I
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: have a lot of sentimental attachment to the nineteen ninety
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: seven Street Players distributed by Original Steps of Tour Makers
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: Hogan and Rodman Special Edition so good. I remember walking
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: into kV seeing this thing. My world was rocked, Like
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: what on earth? This is total standalone. They don't make
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: any other figures like this, no other nothing else this
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: height ever, Like, it's just I think it is so
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: fun it exists. Yeah, I think it's very fun.
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: Do you Does someone out there have this signed by
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 4: both of them?
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: I think so. I think that you've seen him over
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: the ape.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 4: That'd be awesome.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: Robin's coming to Square Circle Expo twenty six.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 4: Might need a picture with him.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to it. Nineteen ninety seven Original
• 1:00:17

  Speaker 1: aka the Vibrating Figures Again.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 6: Man, this is like this is killing me because again,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 6: like I just lied to myself, like these are so great,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 6: we got we finally got new stuff rotten. These are
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 6: some of the worst wrestling figures of all time. The
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 6: likenesses are actually pretty good.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: No, this looks bro This one Nash and Hall is horrible. Yeah,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: I mean I kind of like it. But you someone's

  Speaker 1: rookie figure it here that I won't mention his name.

  Speaker 4: A guy dressed as Hogan at a drunk bar.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I like it. These figures vibrate, folks,

• 1:02:23
  Speaker 6: There's also I believe if I'm correct, me if I'm wrong,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 6: but there's like a little cartoon of Shevanni and Heenan
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 6: in the corner there. At least I always thought it

  Speaker 6: was where below the end in Nitro the blue shirts

  Speaker 6: Shavanni and then Heenen's the guy the gray hair and
• 1:02:38

• 1:03:14
  Speaker 6: it's all over the place. The roster wasn't too deep.

  Speaker 6: They did make a ring there. I believe there's no
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 6: is there a title in that Hulk? I can't tell
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 6: from that. I don't really recall if there's a title.

• 1:03:26
  Speaker 4: Saying yes, okay?

  Speaker 1: eight original stad of the toy makers these this does
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: come with the nWo belt, but people would steal it.

• 1:04:40
  Speaker 4: like what what are we even doing?
• 1:04:41

• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: use the same ass shitty ring as the other.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 6: Never Yeah, but I think I literally think they're just
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 6: this thing is so hot, and if it was so hot,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 6: they're just pumping stuff.
• 1:05:03

  Speaker 1: Pio, isn't there like a double j later on? Like that? Pretty?
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: Is it the same same thing? I'm pretty positive.

• 1:06:03
  Speaker 6: you pop the balloon with the get the wrestling was
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 6: I know. That's how I honestly didn't even really think
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 6: these were like licensed things.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: But the next one is licensed and might be my
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: favorite or one of my favorite hole coking figures of
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: all time, the nineteen ninety nine toy Biz Smash and Slam.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about it now.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 6: This is where all that disappointment that I dealt with
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 6: for years with w W products goes out the window
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 6: because these were fucking game.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: Changers, man, just so toy attic. The packaging was like
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: like nothing I'd ever seen before at the time, you
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. It was The figures were next
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: level for wrestling figures. Oh so fun to play with. Unique.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 6: It got a little nuts with what you're seeing here,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 6: like to keep up because this wasn't like nowadays where
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 6: you're like this finger's coming out and there's a chase
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 6: and you didn't know. You're just like showing up the
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 6: stories and I like, wait a second, this fucking hogan
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: doesn't look like the one I bought a month ago, right.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: So there there's there's pale Hogan, there's tan hogan with
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: removable shirts, then there's one with that painted on shirt.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: Then there's like different thicknesses to the spray paint. Can
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: that one you're looking at the middle of the tan
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: that is my Hogan? Yeah? So good. It's unbelievable. Now.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: One thing, maybe it's just me, but like a lot
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: of people think these are like Attitude era, but this
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: is like these come out slightly after when WCW is
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: at its peak. No, these are ninety eight. They're still
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: Oh these are ninety nine, bro, I guess it's like January.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 6: It's still like they're representing ninety eight by the way, right,
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 6: that's what I'm saying. They're representing ninety when they actually
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 6: come out. Yeah, ninety eight that was still hot. They
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 6: have Goldberg cooking ninety nine's like when it all so
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 6: it's these are coming up out throughout the year where
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 6: it all kind of turns.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: They'll come out after Goldberg lost, right, yeah, because he
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: was in December and start kidding eight Yeah. Right. So
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying, Like these are like forget w
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: W Okay. What I'm trying to say is this, these
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: aren't like the peak of where they're the peak is
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: that garbage we just talked about. That's what I'm saying.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: What I'm saying, these should have been the peak. I wish.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 4: The craziest thing to me is the difference in quality
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 4: of figures. Right, like those other ones garbage, They don't
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 4: even they don't hold up to anything. That was on
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 4: the and then it just it's so apparent because you
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: go from that really crappy square Hogan to this work
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 4: of art that could as good as any action figure
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 4: on the market. Are probably ahead of the game really
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 4: in ninety nine or ninety eight, I.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 6: Think, I think ahead of its time. The package packaging,
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 6: like they don't even package. You can't even get packaging
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 6: like this anymore because it's too expensive and too unique,
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 6: Like a toy company wouldn't even do this. Yeah, and
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 6: it's great, and it's also really payandeesa keeps up like
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 6: that mint on the shelf. I'll tell you right now,
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 6: I've been trying to find that hogant It's almost impossible. God,
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 6: I this was like such there's just the toy Biz
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 6: license was such a game changer for me and my fandom,
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 6: Like it almost like turned me into more of a
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 6: WW fan, even though the product was bad, because the
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 6: WW had the Titan trons that were bad. And then
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 6: like I was so excited about these figures that it
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 6: kind of swayed me a little bit.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 4: All these toys were so much better than the than
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 4: the product at the time. Right that the Horseman pack
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 4: that came out there was just so much great shit.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: What about the bash and Brawlers, Hollywood Hogan. This has
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: been the finish to our podcast for eight years. I'll
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: be back, Jack. I love this. This whole line was
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: great because there was like a super version of those tankas. Yes,
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: and they talk. You're hurting my right arm, so great.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: Just about the same size that talking buddy, a little smaller.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: I still got one behind me right there this side.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: I just fucking love these things so good. They're i
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: kind of airbrushed.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 6: Look in the art is so good, like because that's
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 6: a cartoon really on the box there, it's not really
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 6: what the product looks like.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: Awesome, Yeah, they're great. What about this the nineteen ninety
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: nine body bashers h in Hollywood Hogan.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 6: It's just the same thing as the version yep, a
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 6: more affordable, scale down version.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, oh I thought this was the one that just
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: doesn't talk. They make those as well. Oh okay, wait, okay,
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: there is that too. There's ones without the mechanisms. Yeah. Yeah,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: then there's like my baggies.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this looks like Hogan's taken straight out of the
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 4: World Tour video game. It looks even like pixelated like.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: It looks great. It looks great. What about this TUPAC
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine Sting and Hogan Clash of the Champions,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: It was great. These come at the same time as
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: Smash and Slam, so you yeah, yeah, this Hogan wasn't
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: the best, but you needed that black and white.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 6: Sting And just like the presentation, the packaging, the art,
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 6: this all holds up. That's representing a real moment, like
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 6: saying star k you know, yep, so cool.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: I did not like that the title did not have
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: the nWo on it. Okay, do any of the Toypet
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: titles have the NW on it? Yes? Definitely, Yeah, which
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: one I don't know, but there's definitely ones in the
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: line that have it. I don't think there were like
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: the ones that come in those packs like later on.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: Oh maybe, Okay, you might be right about that. I'm
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: pretty sure.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: What about good old grip and flip Hollywood Hogan versus Goldberg?
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: Fun concept but overall stupid. Yeah, so you would put
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: the fists have magnets, you connect the hands and then
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: you squeeze the legs and you flip the opponent over,
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: Like what are you gonna do with this thing? Yeah?
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 6: Toilets was making way cool stuff. So this was like
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 6: a departure of like, not something you necessarily really needed.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: I mean not everyone's a cycle like us and doing
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: big fans with tidle histories and music. So maybe some
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: kids did love these. Oh is there a kid playing?
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: Sure?
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: Maybe this was really fun.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 4: So is there anybody that's like maybe ten years younger
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 4: than us or five years younger than us that was
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 4: like freaking out out of these gripping flips.
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: I'm sure Heath bro I was just gripping and flipping.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: The weapons were also magnetic, so you can like, you know,
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: gold work and bash Hogan with the chair stuff like that.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 4: I didn't know that.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, some of them pretty cool. What about the
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: ninety nine head wringers, Hogan? These are cool? I just
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: not for me.
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 6: Maybe I love these that they're fun. I did collect them,
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 6: I liked posting them. But they were also like ROKB
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 6: toys pegwarmers that were just forever man.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, man, I don't even remember these at all.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: What about the steel slammers die cast Hogan cool? I
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: weirdly loved like these figures in the box set it
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: was sold in. We can get them all at once.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 4: I remember seeing that and I thought they were so cool.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 4: That was at Wrestling Universe a lot. Yeah, I remember
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 4: seeing it there.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 1: I never had these. What about the ninety nine Ring
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: Masters Hollywood Hogan, this is cool. It's like a movie director.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: He's got the BoA's Hollywood the director. You get it.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 6: Old ring Master set like a very bizarre concept where
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 6: they got the person is literally what they are.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: So he's Hollywood Hokogan.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 6: So he's a got a camera and a director chair
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 6: and the you know, but at deep down there's still
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 6: a good playable figure there.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: Like nothing ruins the figure. You know.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 4: If you take away the Jericho Lion taman right, you
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 4: got to.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 6: Go to ass Jericho, take that jacket off, you're you
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 6: know Goldberg. The Goldberg was the Jack Jeans. I just
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 6: had like a promo or like a backstake Goldberg and jeans. Yeah,
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 6: it's fun though.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: What about the nineteen ninety nine Road Wild Wrestlers Hogan, Bro,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: this is man. If you watch the fw AF or
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: listen to the f WF, that's Hogan's hog. It was
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: got a bigger hog than me.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 4: Dude, Bro, this rules. I had this for a little while. Yeah,
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 4: it's it rules.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: The only it's just such a fantasy, is like a
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 6: complete fantasy, ye hogan, everything like Loop, it's a fantasy. Obviously,
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 6: the motorcycle is a fantasy, but it's fun.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but as we as adults did FWF when you
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 4: realize it's okay to have a fantasy figure out because
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 4: you really could fantasize.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 6: I mean also, I mean we've talked about it, but
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 6: at this time, that ring, the Real Sounds Arena is
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 6: like the number one wrestling thing I've ever got in
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 6: my life, the Nitro ring, the Nightro Ring. I couldn't
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 6: stop playing with it, Like it was so fucking fun.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 6: And like I mean, I'm in freshman in high school,
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 6: like just obsessed with wrestling figures. I'm playing with them,
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 6: and this all adds to it, so like I couldn't
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 6: have enough options, you know.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, maybe that's what you're talking about, Brian.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: The nineteen o nine Heavyweight Championship three pack. They all
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: have belts, lockers, belts, but no NW on those belts.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 4: Hmm.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: There's so many of these things.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 4: I don't even remember this junk. I would have liked
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 4: this to have the lockers because then you can make
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 4: a backstage set.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Like that's what I'm saying. Like I would find
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 6: ways first time. I was a completist, so I had
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 6: all of this at one point, every single thing, but
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 6: I would find ways to incorporate things.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: Well, these three packs I did, Like, this is the
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: Red and Black Attack three pack. There's two versions. This
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: is Hogan, Bischoff, Nash. There's a bishop of black hair,
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: gray hair. Maybe I love the intensional chase in wrestling figures. Yeah,
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: like there's been running changes, but I think this was
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: like an intentional chase. I don't know which one I
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: have currently. It's probably the black hair. I can't see
• 1:16:13

  Speaker 1: Well, guys, listen, I'm sure we miss a random thing
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: here and there. Please cut us a break in the comments.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: Gotta thank Dee Freedom for doing the research year. We
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: definitely missed some carry forwards, some re releases. If we
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: miss anything, let us know in the comments. I think
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: we hit the heavy hitters. We definitely didn't miss anything major,
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: no pun intended.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 4: Well, those were all the for our Age group. Those
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 4: were all the very nostalgic Hulkkin figures and what.
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: It like, I said, what a rear that you can
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: even have that much product and stuff to discuss, and.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 4: He didn't talk about where the toothbrushes and you know
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 4: we only flashlights whatever.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was even crazier is that. I
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: bet there's more mctel Hogan's than there are everything we
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: just covered.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 6: I know that's terrifying too, that if you're like a
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 6: Michael Lapuma classic Jack's Classics, that's a lot alone. Man,
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 6: Let's go, let's go back. What's your favorites from the
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 6: list here? What are the ones that stick out to you?
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 4: Hasbro Hogan number one, LJN.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 6: Hogan number one, Hogan three, Hasbro always be my top
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 6: guy running through everybody favorite Hasbro of him?
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: Uh? And then I'm man, you just got me so
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: boned up for Toyba's WW stuff because it really was
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: especially early on those smashing slams that Hogan holds up.
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 1: That's such a cool figure. I agree. Yeah, I think
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: if that Hogan would have the n w A title,
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: it would have been like eleven out of ten. Everything
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: else is just so so good. Even the way like
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 1: the T shirt hangs off him.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 6: It's like coming off that was like so crazy and
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 6: it's like a molded shirt to the rega to take
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 6: it off and rest of somebody fat.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: But it's like molded to his body. Like even Mattel
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: doesn't do stuff like that. Yeah, you know, he's got
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: the spray can. Oh yeah, I think my my favorite
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: has to just be the good old fashioned l j
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 1: N Series one. It's iconic, all these years later, wrestling
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: figure of all time. Oh man, I can't believe it.

  Speaker 1: in the comments if we gotta do part two anytime soon?
• 1:26:46
