Pretty much as the title says, is there a WCW Galoob Checklist around by any chance? I've been trying to find one but struggling! So any help would be great  |

I just made the checklist and added it here. Great list. If I may add something: Butch Reed S1 has grey swoosh on shoes, the UK variant has no white stripe, but a red swoosh. Ron Simmons S1 has dark blue pants and white shoes. The UK variant does feature the white stripe you mentioned with Reed. The blue on the tights is also slightly lighter (more a marine blue than a dark blue if this makes any sence). Arn Anderson S1 has two variants: bald spot and hair painted over bald spot. I believe the 2-pack was only available with the painted hair as this was a latter change in production. UK Pillmann is said to have two variants aswell: tiger on both kneepads and tiger on only one. Personally I doubt the variant with only one tiger despite I have one loose. Yet I have never seen this variant MOC. I will go through the list later and see if there is anything else that should be noted. Once again, thanks for the great work! |

I knew UK Simmons has the white stripe, I have him; weird I wrote it with Reed...  |

I knew UK Simmons has the white stripe, I have him; weird I wrote it with Reed... The problem with your list is that I am totally back into Galoobs now. All I need to a complete mint loose set is Lugers chain, Big Josh axehandle, US Butch Reed, US Arb Anderson with painted hair and UK pink tights Sid. Also I am still searching for the Dustin Rhodes bio card. Thanks for hurting my wallet, there goes the wife’s Valentines present, I think. 😂 |

I just made the checklist and added it here. Thank you!!!!! I only wanted this list to make sure I had all the Stings/know of them. Trying to grab them all in mint loose condition (That damn Salmon one  ) Also, Didn't the entrance Luger/Sting come as singles too? |

I've never heard of that UK Pillman with one tiger until now. Unless it's fairly common, that sounds more like an error (it was probably intended to have two tigers) rather than a true, intentional variant like Arn with or without a bald spot.

It seems to me that I have seen UK Pillman with nothing on the blue kneepads, although it could likely mean that they had worn off due to someone playing with them.

How do you feel about listing spiritual successors like those PN News and Scotty Flamingo figures?

You don't add Retro Iron Sheik to a Hasbro checklist since it's not by Hasbro, so new Galoob-like figures shouldn't be in a WCW Galoob Checklist. It’s more of a historical and informative look. If anyone is still here 5, 10, 20 years from now and wants to know if their PN News they bought at an estate sale is a prototype or a custom, info like that is helpful. It was an idea. With the way these forums are configured, I wouldn’t stick Hasbros and Retros together in that a mod might disagree about its place. As a collector? I absolutely have no problem having them together as long as they are identified as being a separate company/series. |

OK, locking this topic since it's straying off from the initial question. New/upcoming figs can be discussed in a seperate topic.
