Series 1 Mailaways

[Hasbromaniac]

can there be two Masters?
we have hasbromaniac and hasbromaster, both masters in their own regard. maniac is probably a bit more knowledgeable than master, but master is taking hasbro by the horns in the 21st century.
Every kung-fu master has to pass the torch right?

Nicely put!


I'll be doing some more articles on Hasbros very soon in regards to carded variants;packaging wise that is. Let me tell ya, there's a lot of them.

This is the back.

He wants me to submit an offer so I am thinking of going £60.

What is the book value of a legit JC Penney mailaway Hogan?

am i right in seeing this hogan has 1989 on the bag?
if i am its fake, ljn still carried the license.

[familyguy84]

I thought it changed over in 1989?
That would explain the Hogan v Macho advertising on the JC Penney ring

My bagged Hogan 1 sticker is exactly the same - 1989.

I noticed the 1989 thing too
It seemed wierd to me, as my version of that figure actually says 1990 on the back of the trunks....are the bagged versions the same?

I just presumed that they were old bags used for the figures.... or fakes.

I dont want to upset anyone who may have paid alot of money for these, but i never heard of a wwf mailaway with a sticker on the bag until last year when they were rife on e bay uk, it really isnt hard to fake with a heat sealer and a printer.

As i said, ljn had the wwf license in 89 and hogan was produced in 1990, its a huge risk for £60.

Then again the sticker does not mention WWF, Titan sports etc.

It may have been a generic sticker for Hasbro

[tibbo]

I think it is just a generic Hasbro sticker.....the worrying thing for me is this:

Hasbro have always had a policy where if there is a part missing fro your toy/game/puzzle you can contact them, and they will mail you out the missing part.
It is still actually on there now if you check out their website.
Your missing parts/pieces will then be posted out to you in the Hasbro marked bag you see before you now.

Rest assured these bags aren't specific to just WWF figures

[familyguy84]

Hmmm maybe that's where the guy on ebay a few years ago got all his bags.

Sending off for missing scrabble tiles and then putting figures inside. Very sneaky!

I would assume the generic bags wouldn't have the P/N number the same as the figures though.

Does the warrior bag have any mention of WWF/Titan Sports on it or is it just generic to Hasbro?

The guy who sold this to Adam, who I had contacted, came back to me last night and tried selling me the Red Hulk Hogan for £150.

Trying to recoup his losses. I had to laugh!

[''Adam74'']

Blimey, think your right. I had another email from him the other day asking to buy it back from me.
Think he regrets selling it for the price he did Maybe I should offer him £25 for the red Hulk too?

[cdp]

ah ah!

[familyguy84]

I did offer him £30 and he came back with the line.

"More like £150!"

He obviously is a bit more clued up on this one.
