You know when I first saw this fig on socials I thought I’d this the level we are at now? Following on from Dianna hart and other peripheral figures like Chris van vleet etc
But on second thought that’s me being a bit of a grinch cos this dude was everywhere in the 90s. On his podcast Bruce said he never worked out how he always got front grow centre opposite hard cam. So yeah I’m gonna stop bring a grinch snd say this isn’t for me but fair play

Go watch his documentary on Peacock/WWE Network. It’s both fascinating and emotional.

Not for me either, I don’t need a figure of a fan, I can see why they are making it though.

I’ve been talking with them a bit more (they are very open to feedback). Some of the improvements that have been shared for series 1 are quite drastic and a breath of fresh air. WSW also showed off some sample packaging for Headbangers which are nearing completion: http://instagram.com/p/CzERoB0rp1g |

They look good, also nice to see a tag set that doesn't use identical sculpts, be it just the arms even, better than being identical.
Also, are these new 2 packs re-closeable like the Mattel NWO Retro sets?

So this is something I would like to see ALL figure companies do: mailchi.mp/adfa8bdbea1d/halloween-update-a-new-pre-order?e=022943c6e9It doesn’t have to be as extensive as this but it is fantastic customer service with minimal effort. I brought up an idea like this (requiring 1/10 the effort) in the BRG thread and it was belittled there and on their podcast. Things like this help to build/maintain customer trust and loyalty. |

having seen those Headbangers, I have to say..... I'm now tempted!!!!
I honestly couldn't stand the team, they were the shits in my view but these actually look like a solid outing - let's just hope they're the right size/scale compared to the rest of the Retro figures

Not an Effy fan but the figure looks good. Great to see quality products by independent toymakers. |

I like Effy but I don’t collect modern guys in that form factor. The figure does look awesome and I hope it sell really well for both parties.

I don't follow or collect modern wrestling, but it looks like a high quality and detailed figure. Can't wait to see what else they come out with if they keep improving like this.

I was hoping to have PoP from Epic by now but stoked for the Headbangers!

Looking forward to the Headbangers! As soon as I get mine, I’ll post pics. I bought the regular version.

My Headbanger figures arrived today. They’re great figures. I compared them to my G&G Godwinns and they scale pretty well. Arms aren’t too small or short. Feet seem to be a good size. My only complaint is that I wasn’t able to get them to stand on their own. But, solid release overall!

I got my headbangers today too. Mine don't have any issue standing and they are amazing. They are pretty much the bone cruncher set shrunk down to hasbro size and that is perfect to me. I got both sets that WSW is selling.
