I succumbed to an unboxing vid, specifically in relating to a full shop case of Funko Mystery Mini Figs (mini funkos, in a black bag, in a box... mysterious).

There’s 12 figures in the series, there’s 12 figures boxes in a case, is it possible to complete the set with 1 case? That’s the challenge.

Oh and it probs goes without saying, these will be added to the prize pot, for our canny big free to enter competition, mentioned in our pinned tweet: @GrappleArcade 

The vid:

Not sure about the head sculpt. Looks a a little strange. I like the chunky body look. It overall has a charm that this line has lacked. Have they proportioned it to be taller than say Shawn Michaels figure?

It seems these have been in hiding for 46 years.

Titanes en el Ring figures from 1973. Came in chocolate and made by Felfort. They apparently had tonnes of merch, most of which is unlikely to have been seen by Europeans. 

Some interesting info here as posted on the WFigs site (easy to c&p from Spanish using translate). It talks about the rarities of each wave/range.

Some really good likenesses there. How do they do it with the heads/faces? Do they mould them themselves, or take ready made ones from other figures and add clay or some shit to make their features?

We decided to do an ECW wrestling figure special. We look at each figure from the original OSFTM line and discuss follow up series with ECW stars in other companies, along with unreleased prototypes. We also discuss other ECW merch, including the horrific computer games!

We’re joined by our new broadcast journalist and ECW golden tongue... Joel Gertner. 

There’s also a cameo from the King of Old School, Steve Corino.

Here’s the video link:

And here’s a link to our general Twitter post. We’ll more than likely be announcing an ECW competition soon!

Also, we always appreciate a follow, like & a sub on YT etc. We’ve plenty of fun things in the pipeline, in video form, podcasts and live events.

cheers allđź‘Ť
