Anybody else has in on this one? Ordered A&B. I ordered A, the original prototype figure. Not sure what the delivery date is on these. I was tempted to get all 3 but I couldn't justify £100 on PN News figures!

I was tempted to get all 3 but I couldn't justify £100 on PN News figures! My thoughts aswell. I had a pretty great moment with him and HTM when they were headlining a small event overhere in Germany. Back than my wife and I were working with mentally disabled people. I thought it was a good idea to take them to a wrestling show and PN and HTM must have thought the same, so they let us in early (2 hrs before), gave autographs and took my boys and girls to the backstage buffet (patato salad and sausages). They were as kind as you can imagine.

I'm really happy that PN News is getting some great figures made, and I'm absolutely thrilled to be getting his long awaited Galoob!

They were as kind as you can imagine. Wow! Love that! I don’t have a PN News story but I do have a HTM story that I think supports the kinder side of him. Back before Jake Roberts got sober, he was doing a one man show Q&A deal with fans. It was hosted by Bill Apter. Jake was drinking and popping pills during the show. They could have been legit medications but those were not prescription beers. Anyway, there was only a few dozen of us in the room and we were all in a half circle on stage. Very intimate. Jake’s emotions were all over the place. You never knew how he would react to a question and it was really a negative experience. At some point, Honky Tonk Man wanders into the room. He had been doing a convention across the hall and he was invited to join us. Damn if he didn’t bring some much needed positivity to that show! He really salvaged that overall experience and made things much lighter not just for the fans but for Jake as a human being. I’ll never forget that. It was all impromptu and clearly done out of the kindness of his heart.

TRC announced doing a Johnny B Band which is an excellent choice for Galoobs, can't wait to see what he comes up with for Mero.

Yeah that'll be a great figure, and probably in a few different colours. I held off buying the G&G Mero, but I'll most likely pick up at least one Galoob version. Thinking about it, he'd look good in the Tom Zenk pose, or at least similar to that.

I got the regular one and was so impressed that I got the other two variants aswell. JBB as a Galoob-style will be a first day order for me, if the manage to send out PN before the order starts. They are a new company and I really wamt to see the quality before supporting another project. If PN turns out great I can see me supporting more than one release as they go through different production stages, but the first one has to be completed before they get more from me.

Before I decided to start collecting I found my galoobs and sold them, regretting that now. Johnny B Badd is a great choice, another one I’ll be getting.

Yeah, to be fair, it wasn't that I didn't think the G&G Mero was worth buying or anything, I think it looks pretty good, especially in the black version and especially the yellow. I dunno, I just didn't get round to buying it, but maybe I will. I agree regarding Top Rope, I really want to see them do well as I personally want to see the Galoob style lines continue, and I was a bit surprised that PN News wasn't ready to go, but from what we've seen it looks great. 🤞

I’m in for a JBB! That is right in my sweet spot for WCW nostalgia!

I know those pictures aren't necessarily what we'll get, but they look great anyway. Good stuff.
