So, I finally picked up this aforementioned playset this morning, for the staggering cost of three dollars. Included are pics of it, and snark. First, the figures included. I've dubbed them Drunk Rey Mysterio and Raisin Head, due to the latter resembling one of the California Raisins. The molds are identical to the Dollar Tree Los Jobronis, but made with higher quality plastic. The elbows are quite floppy, however, the other joints are fairly sturdy. Next up, the ring proper. Roughly 10 1/2" squared and 5' tall from bottom of apron to top of ring post. "Super Championship" sticker is already applied. Assembly is as simple as placing the solid ring posts into holes, knotting the included ropes (much like the old Jakks Pacific Monster Ring, and stretching the ropes in/around the turnbuckles. The posts tend to lean in slightly, this is probably due to the tension of the ropes pulling on the cheap plastic. Lastly, the accessories - a tiny ladder, a non-breakable table, a chair that I forgot to put in the shot proper (although you can see it on my marker container), what I think is supposed to be a traffic light of some kind, a traffic cone, a tiny guardrail, a small garbage can and what I guess is the "Super Championship" itself. Wait, let's have a closer look at that belt, shall we? ... Why yes indeed, it is a knockoff of the much maligned Spinner WWE Championship, complete with shoddy attempt at an "original" logo, yet no attempt whatsoever to hide the fact that a stolen or bootleg mold was used to make this. Thoughts/comments are of course welcomed.

Nice pick ups! I get a kick of all these dollar store type and knockoff figures...by the way that title if anything is a knockoff Mattitude logo. If I remember and I'm educated in my mattitude facts,the WWE logo is really the mattitude logo upside down. That,and he doesn't like pulp in his orange juice

Thanks. And now I wonder: what would the sensei of Mattitude think of knockoffs?

I wonder if you painted that belt, how well a Miz WWE Championship it would make.

I used to see those playsets at Walmart but they're not there anymore. For knockoffs, they're not the worst I've ever seen.

I got the same belt, figures, accessories except I have the set with the 8 sided ring.
Matt also hates voicemails and people who leave them.

I picked up this set on clearance a few months back. I'll just say it wasn't even worth the $3.50 I paid for it and leave it at that.
