I saw a WCW Galoob ring listed on for sale in auction, on the box, is a sticker stating 2 free figures were included in the box, I think we just solved where the bagged figures came from!!!

It wasn't auction, it was a buy it now, its gone now, so I guess someone bought it, its a great item as it confirms where those bagged galoob figures come from, Ive never seen the ring box with this sticker on it

It has always interested me how different the actual ring is to the pictures on the box

Is this were the bagged Salmon Sting came from? I would almost certainly say, this is where that Sting & the Blue Luger came from, I have NEVER seen this before and wished I had bought it now lol!

I believe I received this one as a kid for Christmas back then. I do remember my Galoob ring coming with figures but I don't believe Flair being one of them.

It was a Woolworths promo, Woolworths being a UK dept. store for anyone not in the UK, It wasn't Flair, there have been 2 bagged Galoob figures sell recently, on eBay, one Luger blue trunks & one Sting salmon pants, they wer esold as Mailaways, but appears they came in this ring as many of you have speculated in the past

I'm sure Barry Windham was one of the figures. I never had a Luger or Sting growing up..

One would think that if the same figures were in each box they would have stated who the figures were on the box. Nice possible explanation, WVGuitar.

I'm pretty convinced Windham was one of the figures included with my ring. I however am from the US so it definitely wasn't from Woolworths

I got all my WCW galoob stuff from woolworths the xmas I was bought it
I ended up with ring, flair and arn, plus fab freebirds and soundbox
I was not a fan of Flair or Arn, so I have to assume they came inside the ring box, as I would not have chose those figures
