Evening all,
Just wondering if anyone has any information on the Blue Trunk Attire Brian Pillman - from the database I can see its a UK exclusive. Did it come as part of a pack? I have been adding Galoobs as a side collection to Hasbro and normally only see the Tiger Striped version. Is the Blue trunk version really rare?

Thanks for the info, its interesting that you got him for such a good price but haven't seen him since either, Im guessing he must be a tricky one to track down.

There was one on ebay about a week ago. I also have one, but I think I ended up paying about $10 for him. I have seen him go for a half decent price in the past. I have been trying to find the Barry Windham UK version for a long time now. Think I only seen it once on ebay.

yes they are quite tricky, i didnt even know half of them where made until i found them in boot sales ect, after checking online i now know i only need 1 to complete the wcw galloob collection and that is big josh, im sure ill find him somewhere cheap enough soon.

If you'll find him cheap that means you'll have him incomplete (without axhandle and/or belt), otherwise count on $50+

I have the Pillman and Windham also UK, but still looking for the Ron Simmons UK.
That is hard to find.

I sincerly doubt you'll ever find a Big Josh with axe handle and belt at a charity shop. The axe handle is what makes the figure hard to come by. There's plenty of the figures out there, but most kids lost the axe handle. It's a lot different finding a Hasbro Bushwhacker for .50 compared to finding a loose complete Big Josh..

The Galoobs are hot and cold , I got my Windham in like 2000 and just as of 3 years or so ago got the belt for Dustin. I have a carded Dustin I have to dump now as I fought ripping him off the card for years. The axe handle is a real whore to get as is the chain. I was lucky enough to get anextra chain on an El Gigante for my variant pre ring Lugar for like $7.00 .

The belts are aren't a big deal but I do remember one going cheap and wondering what the hell happen and that maybe I had lost touch or something . It was a few years a go though. They really had a love for some of those colors they used too.

Windham (blue trunks) was the toughest MOC to find. I sold mine a few years back for $250.
