Very excited to grab this. That basic is great looking even though it doesn’t seem to have the new style articulation. The box art on this set is incredible too!

Motorcycle is cool...Problem is that it has the 80s Hogan body, which for a 1994/5 Hogan just doesn't work. I might get it just for the cycle if it goes on sale.

The fifth picture is how Hogan got his black eye before WMIX

WCW Toybiz had something like this, a Hulkster on a motorbike. I remember it had a sound effect like "I'm Burning Rubber, Brother" or something.
Yeh the torso is a bit big for that era, but come on, it's a basic and clearly not aimed at collectors. It's colorful and fun, kids will love it.

I just made an Ultimate version of my Elite Monday Night Wars Hogan, and I have to say it’s a big improvement. Looking at it makes me realize how great it would look on a motorcycle.
The motorcycle doesn’t have to be wrestling themed, but I wouldn’t be opposed to it having wrestling details.
Any suggestions, gang?

Maisto makes 1:12 scale versions of real life motorcycles and they cost around $10 but Mattel WWE figures might be a little too big for them. I put an E85 Undertaker on one and even though he is one of the larger WWE figures, he looks like a grown man riding a kids tricycle.

Hmm… Sounds like that wouldn’t work. But thanks for the info!

I always found 1:10 scale (if you can find it) works better with wrestling figures

Finding 1:10 scale anything is hard outside of NECA or RC Car Garage stuff. And, to make matters worse, I've encountered stuff from WWF figures that is not in current WWE figure scale. I bought the old grapple gear refrigerator thinking I could 'restore' it and make it into a regular fridge, only to find out the fridge is WAY too small for the current mattel figures.

Feels like a missed opportunity to not make it red with Hulkster on the fuel tank. How many people that own the war bonnet Hogan woulda picked it up just to create this look?

So far looks like this is only being sold in Canada Walmarts. I assume it will make it to the U.S. also? I have seen the Undertaker one at Target.

Can someone explain this? Does it just come apart upon touch, kind of like the Honky Tonk Man guitars? What is the big idea, that Hogan crashes his exclusive motorcycle frequently and rebuilds it? Or the villainous heel took a sledge-hammer to Hogans motorcycle and now "Whatcha Gonna Do" when the Hulkster comes after YOU? Or Hogan allowed his son to take a drive on his motorcycle and..... sorry, too soon? Am I going to have this on my Hogan shelf, and frequently walk into the room to find that the wheels have fallen off, etc?
