upcoming WWF figures
Joan Pixie
in the "is this bloody necessary?" department, we have "Maximum Sweat"
series one. This figures boast the ability to "actually sweat" water.
Some may call this innovative. I call it scary. Included in the line
are HHH, the Rock, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, Austin and Kane. Maybe
the Kane figure will have that sexy "middle of the back to his ass"
sweat line, like he does at shows. *grin*
Superstars Series 8 consists of Shane McMahon, Kane, Shawn Michaels,
Ken Shamrock, Big Boss Man, and The Rock. I have a feeling this will
be a "commissioner Shawn Michaels" figure, but anything is possible.
And there will be some new 2 Tuff figures as well it seems.
Rock and Mankind, Val Venis and D'Lo, Kane and Undertaker (they were
already released in a two pack!! I have it! jeeez!) and Austin and
Boss Man.
Really not the most exciting figures to look forward to, I know.
In other news, if you're by a Bradlees, they now have in the exclusive
Undertaker/Paul Bearer packs. Undertaker comes with a batman-esque
cape, no tattoos, old sculpt. Paul Bearer is the same one from the
pack with Mankind, sans urn.

Being a Chyna completist, I hope that this one's a new, better sculpt, and not
just a repaint.

man, they better hope wrestling stays trendy, or there's gonna be a LOT of
money lost and a LOT of pegwarmers.
i've been a wrestling fan since i was 11 years old and i'm officially sick
of all the wrestling figures.

thanks, Matt!

whee, Gangrel and Christian. I bet Christian is just an Edge (HHH)
repaint, though.
> 2Tuff Series 5:

I'm pretty sure this was supposed to be Scorpio and Gillberg, so it
might not happen.

This is actually logical. You mean... they're going to make logical
figures in STOMP? Here's hoping they get Road Dogg right on this one,
since I get every figure they make of him, and I'm sick of them not
looking like him at all. Also, a new accurate Chyna sculpt would be
great, as would a Billy Gunn that doesn't look like the guy from "The
Hills Have Eyes."

Looks like someone near a Target will be picking up a Road Dogg for
me.
> Undertaker & Paul Bearer 2 Pack (Bradlees Exclusive - "Out Now")
It is. UT has a cape.
> KB TOYS "NO CHANCE" 4 Pack (June): Austin, McMahon, Paul Wight, & ???
I'd imagine the Rock.
> HARDCORE CHAMPIONS 4 Pack (TRU) comes with Hardcore Belt

Ack.
I though there was going to be a belts pack, which had Road Dogg with
the HC belt, Jackie with teh women's belt, Christian with the
lightweight belt and XPac with the Euro belt? I'd MUCH rather have
that, so I can play with belts on my figures. (at the moment, Luna is
1/2 of the tag team champions.)

Prolly $15 each, like the Austin that comes with a chair and a table.
There's also supposed to be a DX with removable shirts pack or
something...
*shrug* there's too much to keep up with. I saw in previews that
Oddities figures are coming soon, along with Goldust with a cloth robe
and Droz that looks like him.

you know what saves them, though? the fact that Jakks, who is making
all these figures, seems to have an extremely small run on every
series they make. It seems like there are pegwarmers, but even they
fade away over time, and the new stuff is in it's place.
If they had even half the run of say, Batman and Robin movie toys,
they'd be in deep crap. But since they don't, I think they'll get by
okay.
