Now is as good as a time as any to do this. Especially with the bad taste in everyone's mouth on Hasbros. I will be gathering up the Hasbro slides I purchased from a collector who had known contacts with "real former Hasbro employees"; imagine that. These slides were bought from the same person who sold me my proof cards. Among these slides are pics that were used for the cardbacks. Other posed/action shot slides were used for reference in the sculpting process of wrestlers such as Hulk Hogan, Boss Man, IRS, Tugboat and the Beverly Brothers. Yeah, yeah, no pics, no proof. Here's one to start.

Just to show that I do own proof cards. Here's a small treat for the Nature Boy fans :

I posted this one a while ago, but thought it'd be nice to rescan. The Taker's proposed "urn". Most likely, parents would think it creepy to have that kind of accessory.

Figured I'd change the thread title as I do not have 100% accuracy on unreleased figures but do have some sources left out there. Here is a released figure w/sketch and reference slides to boot!

maybe they ditched it because the undertaker never carried the urn.

Always imagined one of the Beverly Brothers to have the Jake mould. Thanks for the awesome post! Like the Urn too...

Good post Hasbromaniac.. I also have a set of these slides - I got them from the same seller as you maybe 6 months ago. I have no pictures available because they are packed away, but I know I've shown Judge before. I have 5 or 6, 2 of which are Shango.

So it was you adam74 who got those slides. I lost one slide auction, at least that I'm aware of, but at least it was to a great collector like yourself.
