So before I say anything, I'm already opening a ticket with RSC bc wtf. Today I was set to receive my Dudleys 2 pack with Giant Bubba and Dvon along with my order of the Outsiders UE 2 Pack accompanied by the RSC Jeff Jarrett figure as shown in the below order snapshot.  So I opened the first box and Im greeted by the Dudleys. Then move onto this oddly shaped thinner rectangle box. I was wondering how the UE boxes would fit in there but didnt question it too much until I opened it to see this lol  Big SAD. I don't collect these little rubber chew toys personally, to each their own but not only did I get a different order somehow, I somehow lost $46 in the process. So now Im sure I'll have to send these back and then wait another week for my shipment. Good times. Posting this so someone else can get a kick out of my bad luck. |

LJNs are usually the ones referred to as rubber chew toys not Hasbro retro style.
Anyway, cheer up, Im sure RSC will straighten it all out..

Like I said, I opened the ticket before posting just thought it was funny after the day I was having. I truly don't even know the difference between LJN and Retros tbh. Both of them resemble thinner POPs to me and I dont collect them so I've never had them in hand to feel/see the difference. Are these ones harder plastic then? |

Yeah, harder plastic, ABS & PVC,with some limited articulation. The LJNs are just straight up one big piece of rubber and roughly twice the size of the retro figures. |

If I didn't have to send these back I'd open them and check them out. Didn't know they moved at all. Thought it was the one singular stuck pose thing for them too. |

The Retros have actual actions as well - as in they have mechanisms inside them which make the figure do something; e.g. of the figures you have there: - Scott Hall and Kevin Nash: if you lift their arms up over their heads then when you release the arms will slam down;
- Syxx and Road Dogg have a small tab on their backs which you can press down and the figure will spring-up when you release the tab (these are called 'jumpers');
- Hogan's right leg can be pulled back and it will kick forward, kind of like a big boot - the original HBK figure has the same action but in reverse so the leg kicks back like he's doing the Sweet Chin Music;
- Billy Gunn's arm has a spring in it so when you pull it back then it will punch forward
- Chyna actually has two mechanisms: you pull her right arm down and it springs up like an upper cut/low-blow, but her waist also twists so she can punch from the side like a round-house punch; the clothesline figures like Triple H have a similar waist twist mechanism; Ric Flair's was reversed so his arm went backwards like a chop.
The Hasbros had similar actions back in the day to make use of their articulation.

Yep, these are the Happy Meal toys (Hasbro, Retros), not the dog chew toys (LJN, Big Rubber Guys,Major Bendies) or the He-Man knock offs (Remco, Superstars) lol.
