Love this thread! So many interesting things in it... Thank you! It has taken a while to accumulate them. So many of the knockoffs are similar, it not outright stolen from other sources.

Congratulations and thanks for posting. That’s one hell of an effort. Easily one of the best.

One is a guy who is named Wolf in some of the lines that have named figures. He is a guy with a Mohawk and sunglasses. I think Sheamus changed his look to match this guy.

You have some great figures there. I have this Bossman stamp and I always assumed that the nightstick must have broken off (got it second-hand) I guess not.

These are so awesome! I am having inner child overload! I want them all. I love the real ones of course, but something about a nice bootleg gets me chomping at the bit!

Some of the bootlegs are better than the mainstream figures! I know right! It’s so funny how that happens sometimes. I still want the tiny plastic vending machine versions of hasbro and Galoobs. Super generic looking one color, but completely rAd!

I like how the some knockoffs come with 5 accessories when you can hardly get any with other figures and you get guns, chainsaws and other maiming weapons.

Yeah, I always wondered why the generic ones were way more violent, like super unrealistic weapons. Almost expect to see a fake Warlord with an iron maiden, an electric chair and a tank!

A flamethrower would seem to be in line to be packaged with them.

I know I’ve already commented about how cool these are, but I just keep looking and keep loving all of these! Such a nice collection of generics!

I think Playmates only had it for a year, but quite a bit of varied things out.

I love this! Those Wrestling Federation figures would be great in an ECW OSFTM collection.

I have the entire ECW OSFTM line and it is shown in the Complete History of OSFTM WCW figures stick thread on page 7. I added my ECW collection and WCW collection in one post with the ECW figures being at the bottom of the post. They do go well together.

And I guess when Jakks took over the license they acquired all of Playmates unsold stock. Many Playmates items have Jakks Pacific stickers on the back. Have prototypes for Ringmasters Andre and Stone Cold ever surfaced? I always wanted both of them and they were never released. I love all of the obvious Hulk Hogans where they didn't even try to hide that it was Hulk Hogan. Some of those thumb wrestlers look like straight up LJNs. And I will always love cross-eyed Benoit and Goldberg wearing a mask on some of the packaging art.

Woah!!! This is an amazing collection & Post, it brings such nostalgia for me as a kid.
When my parents couldn’t afford WWE toys they’d get me everryyyy character of those “Wrestling federation” guys at the top. I created fake feds and character names with those. I’d love to have these back in my collection someday
