Hasbro Hogan Mail Away Figure History

[vandutch]

Hello all,

I know nothing about the Hasbro figures as I was never a big fan. I have the opportunity to get the mail away Hogan and since I collect Hogan stuff, I'd like to know how it came about and how rare it is.

So my question is what type of promotion was this mail away figure and how rare was the figure?

similar to Jakks having us collect tickets and upc's?
simple as sending some money to Hasbro?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

The Hasbro Mail-aways were exclusive to WWF Magazine, All you needed to do was send in your order form and money...They were $7.95 each.
Man 8 bucks for a figure what a rip off all the others cost $5, I am so glad my mother didnt let me waste money on them.

I remember them in the WWF magazine (along with Taker & Bret) & my mom wouldnt let me get them because she said I could get them at the store cheaper. I cant believe I gave up on those...
