 Shipping label has been created for my Booger. Yeah, I said it lol. Series 2 took four days between the label being created and the figures being delivered, so fingers crossed it’ll come by the weekend. |

I just saw Arn Anderson is done with AEW,I hope zombie can sign him before Arn gets signed up with another promotion. A double A retro zombie style would be amazing

I was reminded today that it came out that Zombie has PCO under contract.

Where did you read this? I've seen Brock Anderson is done but not Arn.

Would be amazing, what about Tully? Need Brain Busters so bad! Hate that AEW has so many great legends tied up and they aren't doing any retros themselves. |

They have a handful of good names that would fit into a few collections: Edge Christian Chris Jericho Dustin Rhodes Rusev Sting Also, I wouldn’t mind a Neville and Cass if they looked like the dumbed down Mattel Retros (Along with Ryback and nZo, this would complete the unmade Mattel Retro figures). |

Yeah, I would love some surfer Stings, Dustin and I forgot about Jericho, would want him in his WCW look. Does Dean Malenko still work for them too? Regal left though right? |

Jerry Lynn would be great, and of course, a dozen Surfer Stings in various colours. I don't see AEW going the retro route, tbh, but who knows...

I just saw Arn Anderson is done with AEW,I hope zombie can sign him before Arn gets signed up with another promotion. A double A retro zombie style would be amazing Weird he left just as Flair was coming in. Was there a reason given? Either way, I would love a retro-style Brain Busters. Either by Zombie or Hasstel's. |

Double A lost his son a few weeks or months ago. He may just do nothing.

Got my Booger! Only took three days this time around for my order to ship after receiving the e-mail. I love the sculpt. All of the POA work as intended. Joints have a smoothness to them. If you compare it to Hasbros, it’s a bit undersized and the skin tone is on the paler side. Will probably continue to display all of my Zombie figures together since I think they look their best and are best represented as a stand-alone line. Noticed more imperfections with Booger than Series 2. To the card and the paint job. Not anything major, but the little things do add up. I’m not a MOC collector, but if I was, the warped card would be a disappointment to some degree. If I were to pinpoint one thing that does bother me, it’s the paint chip on the back of the singlet near the right shoulder blade. I do think this is as good of a Booger figure as there will probably be made officially licensed in the Retro style. I wish he had more of a slovenly appearance, but it’s perfectly fine for what it is. Despite the minor issues, I would gladly order this figure again from Zombie.

Great review! I’m shocked by how undersized he seems to be. If anything I thought he was going to be too big! Also I thought he would be too dark as well. Still a great looking figure otherwise and better than what Hasbro had planned.

Welp… that one went south. I hate it when things like this happen because they can easily be avoided.
Tbf Booger wasn’t the tallest, but he was not Chad Gable small.
