Maxx Payne as a wrestler makes me laugh because I was hooked on that game series back in the day. I had to do a double take...Maxx Payne looked a little bit like AJ Styles in that promo photo haha NGL, I looked at the photo first and thought the same. He really does look like AJ there. |

I not sure if I am losing my mind or not, but I remember there being a Walmart Exclusive t-shirt series basic of Punk wearing this shirt.  Does anyone have this figure or remember it??? |

Looking forward to see who’s next in the Walmart superstars line. Next set of retros too. Hopefully Ringside gets another set.

Not sure if they would ever get figures, but the new Wild Samoans would make a great base for Mr. Fuji and Professor Tanaka. I'm sure some customizers can pull it off.   |

They only released 2 of those Walmart shirt figures and neither was that one. People make tons of customs though, so maybe you saw one of those. They only did a white shirt and grey shirt. |

Looks like he had two basics with the t-shirt and neither were the yellow GTS. They did make a stuft doll with it tho. I’m also “Mandelaing”that he had a basic with the ice cream bar shirt lol  |

No sarcasm: it’s nice to have an “official” thread that leads off with relevant dates and known product pics, and not just some random part-timer (like me) trying to be the first to start the thread with no intension to actually keep up with things. That’s it. I’ll be a mere observer for a while. Really appreciate it, though.

I think the new bodies for the Samoans look fine. The Samoans were a little chunkier than the Headshrinkers - but these bodies match up much better than the Umaga ones used last time.   Yeah, honestly, if they wanted to do it right, they would have made a new torso that was between the two. But I firmly believe they went this route as a cost saving measure due to the volume of cloth goods in this pack. Using the second largest (or so) largest torso that Mattel has going for them, I'm gonna have to say the production costs of the cloth goods here would have jumped enough that they weren't willing to make the sacrifice. None of the Umagas, or the original Wild Samoans, had cloth goods. They used heavy plastic for the wraps. This time, they gave us cloth wraps like the Headshrinkers. All about money, most likely. It's plenty good enough for me, frankly, and if nothing else, I will happily display them in their older looks and keep my custom Umaga body Samoans on the shelf as well. If they're packaged as the Samoans as opposed to the Bloodline ceremony I agree that this is probably the reason. |
