Hi, I've recently been clearing out my loft and discovered lots of my old wrestling collectables. Amongst my figures, I have a set of series 1 bendems.
The set includes,
Pink Bret Hart Diesel Razor Ramon Doink Lex Luger
They are all in their original packaging and in decent shape, I just wondered if anybody knew a value of what these kind of toys go for, or if any are rarer than others.
I have searched the forum and found 2 good threads on bendems from a few years back, I couldn't find any pricing.
Sorry in advance if I am posting this against the rules or in the wrong area. I'm pretty new to forums.

Check on ebay, I don't think they're in high demand at the moment. I would keep them for now!

Wern't these the ones during the Attitude Era, that had Vince McMahon, Undertaker and SCSA? It included them as well as Shane. There were several versions of some characters (123 Kid and X-Puke, purple and Ministry Undertaker and repaints of Rock and SCSA throughout the set. They MAY have also produced the first figures of Sunny, Sable, the Hardys, the Godfather, Tool Cool, Rikishi, Tazz and others). To address the original question, the first and second series (neither have the series number on the package) are plentiful and a few dollars for each is probably the top of the line price. You may get more for individual figures from other series, depending on who it is. The higher prices ones are Series 15 (XV) and to a lesser degree Series 14 (XIV).

I wasn't sure if they were or not because I used to have the ones that I mentioned. I never knew they made other ones

Some of the 5th figures were repaints (mostly Austin or Rock) and a few variants.

In my opinion this was a very under appreciate line. Would have been much more highly regarded had they released a better ring. Have you ever seen the Dink prototype?

I remember the photo of the prototype Dink standing on the apron of a ring watching a match.

There are a few Bend ems that are pretty valuable, sorry to say none of yours are though. I'm on the hunt for Grand master sexay and Rikishi myself.

Thanks for all the replies, really helpful. I never knew the line went on for so long, and completely forgot I had these. I've found some carded and loose Hasbros too, they were always my favourites.
I'm sure I had a star toys Jim Duggan somewhere too, but haven't found it as of yet. Will keep digging through.
Thanks again.

I remember first seeing them in the WWF catalog around mid 1995. They were listed at (GASP!) $9.99 each.
Not too long after that, they were around $2.99 at KB Toys. They never seemed to sell well, though.
Justoys tried to do a stretch wrestlers line as well with Lex and Bret and advertised Razor, Doink, Macho and Yokozuna but those didn't make it. The WWF Magazine had a Razor stretch with Diesel and Razor stretching it. Justoys finally did something extra around 1997 with the minis.

I actually collected these too!!I remember the very first series I found at target the day after Christmas in 95.i got diesel.... The thing that I was hoping for was that ring pic that was on the back that transformed into that odd looking case thing. The distribution of these was pretty good here in Minnesota.... Towards the end of their run u could walk into any grocery store and find them, and even Walmart dedicated alot of shelf space to the attitude packaged ones. But yes the last couple series are the most sought after... Tazz, too cool are the gems.

I live in the UK but actually got these in America when I was on holiday there with my family as a kid. I've also discovered a Jimmy Hart WCW figure, I must have got there too, as I can't recall them ever being on sale in the UK although I could be wrong.
All this nostalgia is wonderful!

There was Canadian carding also. Some of those did not even have the drawing of the wrestler on it. Others had the drawing of all 4 members of the series on it.
