11/10 Rush instagram: Trump shipping to customers the week before Thanksgiving. Huge if true. And they don’t look half bad either |

10 more Trumps that were absolutely sold out have just been found and are available on the Rush website! edit: Also changed the price from $30 to $40 I have never bought a rush toy but that trump is damm cool. Based on. What I am reading here it would seem that he probably doesnt have the rights to make these figures and only sells them for a short period of time before moving on. |

Presidents are public domain. Figures or novelty items and characters have been made of many presidential figures by companies. As for the actual wrestlers he makes and has “signed” that could be up for argument as its been said in the past some of those talents were upset with sal or ghosted by him about the promised product |

11/13 Rush Instagram video: CVV and Trump shipped from China and will arrive Friday. He will spend the weekend packing them up so they can ship to customers next week.
Rush has the cards, trading card, and posters already. I believe there is no bubble but rather a plastic shield that goes over ther card and figure like the Mattel Creations retros.
Here’s a question… Would you rather that assembly from other retro companies so that they only spend a few days getting here from China or do you like the factory sealed bubble and longer shipping time? I know there is more in play that causes longer times but speaking generally which would you rather?

I know there is more in play that causes longer times but speaking generally which would you rather? considering Rush is literally a 'one man and his dog' operation (and Sal's probably not even got a dog!) then I wouldn't expect anything less than this level of cost-cutting
no professional outfit would do this. professional businesses would have priced their products accordingly to cover the costs of packaging as part of the overall product - spending the weekend putting plastic figures into a cheap, unsealed, box is hilarious when you think he's trying to portray his business as anything other than a budget level Etsy store
and even Etsy producers put more investment and effort into their products than Sal ever will

They have shipped from the factory but we haven’t seen a completed figure yet?
I would say he is putting all the parts together himself and then shipping out
Complete guess work but it’s the only thing that makes sense

Rush’s instagram posts indicate the CVV/Trump were assembled before shipping to America. (Due to arrive today)
