Anyone know why Tama Tanga has a micro brawler,and a figure made by the "Other" wrestling figure company,but his partner Tanga Loa has no figure? Cause at one point Tama was a solo act and a very promising young star. Honestly as long as he has done the tag thing has probably stalled his potential. |

Does anybody have comparison pics of these next to other figures? Just trying to get an idea on size. On one hand I like the look and the characters, on the other hand I need to jump into another toy line like I need a sharp stick in my eye.

There are some pics of these with other figures on pages 6 and 7 of this thread. They are about crotch high of regular Mattel elites and they are the same height of the funko mystery minis wrestlers. |

Yeah, I didn't like these at first but they grew on me, I've spent some money over the last month trying to collect them. Some are very reasonable on eBay others are a little too expensive. You can go to pro wrestling tees website, they still have quite a few for sale there including legends like Arn Anderson, Terry Funk, and the Road Warriors. |

Anyone else surprised how popular these are vs. the Funko Minis? I think the quality of the Minis was by far superior. They're both a little cartoony (which I love) and are mostly comparable. Minis didn't seem to get much love, and everyone loves these. What am I missing? Don't get me wrong, I'm still picking up the characters I like, but they don't look as nice to me standing by my Minis.

The ones from Pro Wrestling Crate are relatively cheap ($10 to $15 usually), while the ones that are just sold via ProWrestlingTees.com, can be pretty rare (Chris Hero, Piper, Bulldog, Steamboat etc...) and there are two that were never released for sale via PWT because the WWE came in and stopped it (Billy Gunn & X-Pac). |

Yeah, I'm still looking for the bulldog, steamboat and piper ones. Taz too. I did not know that about Gunn & XPac. |

There are probably only a few out there. PWT gave all of the Gunn & X-Pac Brawlers to those two guys. Billy and his wife sold his for $25 via Twitter and I was lucky enough to get one that way. |

I've only ever seen X-Pac on Ebay two times. Waltman must still have them himself. Hero and Gunn you can find but it's very seldom. Same with Bulldog, Piper, and Steamboat. Any of those 6 would be over $100 most likely now.

Steamboat...I got lucky and found 2 at the PWT store. I know Waltman has always said he won't sell them whenever he has been asked. |

I should have thought of that. I'm only a nostalgia collector and hardly even recognize any of these non-WCW/WWE names. |

Anybody know who is being sent out in the grab bags? For around $5 a piece it seems like a decent place to jump in.

I now just need Roddy Piper, the Swoggle "Famous Midget Wrestler" variant and the rare unreleased X-Pac. You can email Hornswoggle and he will ship them to you for the "Famous Midget Wrestler" His email is on his Twitter account. I bought 2 from him he autographed then and gave me a great deal |

X-Pac definitely still has some of his. Coincidentally today I was listening to the 2/13/20 episode of the Major Wrestling Pod and Ryder was telling Hawkins about catching up on these. He mentioned X-Pac as one he has and Hawkins was saying he had to remind X-Pac for his again. Sounded like it was all pretty recent.
I had no idea til stumbling into this thread now WWE stopped the Pac and Gunn ones. Funny enough, Ryder was hinting there may be some this summer that "look like" them. Guessing that may be some compromise to get around WWE stopping these being made on their current talent but this would also mean they don't get made in ring gear. I mean, Hawkins may get his Prince of Queens indie gear look but Ryder would have to either be in street clothes or generic ring gear.

They'll probably make them in the their masked STOMP In Paradise gear. |

Anyone know why WWE stopped the XPAC and Gunn ones from being made?
