WCW Galoob ring

[Deleted]

Is the WCW Galoob ring with Soundbox a UK exclusive thing or not? Also is it more rare/expensive than the standard ring set.
Cheers

[A Flair for the Gold]

it is very costly from what i remember, and i think the UK exclusive comes with the freebirds if i am not mistaken

I thought the sound box always came separate from the ring, simply the freebirds set

when I got my WCW ring from Woolies back in the day for Crimbo

I got a boxed ring, with 2 Unknown figures inside, (turned out to be Arn and Ric)

and also I got the box set of Freebirds with sound box

The sound unit was also sold on its own without the ring or any figures. I think Ichiban has one sealed in the original box.

I have had the big box version of the ring before

but I still did not think the sound box was inside it

I thought it was just a repackaged UK ring

Definitely in there, see the yellow 'blast' it states about the sounds it also states at the bottom of the box.

Any idea roughly how much I should pay for one, it's case fresh and sealed

Here is the other item mentioned in the thread not shown. No idea what a UK ring is going for.

I'm in the UK and I remember getting the sound module with the ring. I played with my wrestling gear though so the ring took quite a beating and eventually got chucked out.

I'm clearing space and getting rid of the stuff that survived though and the sound module is currently on a popular auction website

[theMOESIAH]

Is this the same sound module that came with the blue Hasbro ring?

Damn ! That's in amazing condition, considering it's age.

Is that yours, or just a pic that you found somewhere online ?

Imagine if El Gigante really dove off the top of the cage like that! Lol

[eastlosfinest]

how rare is this ring?

[figurecollector]

With the sound box, it is pretty rare. At least in the US.

I'm from Ireland and the sound unit defo came with mine too. It may have been a Euro exclusive. REALLY fond memories of this ring.....used it all the time for my Hasbros(I only had a few Galoobs) but the cage sold me on it. I remember always having a WWF vs WCW PPV in the cage featuring the following matches

Hogan(v3) vs Flair
Demolition vs Steiner's
Warrior(v2) vs Sid
Macho Man(v1) vs Luger

ah here....GREAT memories.
