While I'm on here today, I thought I'd share these with the 2 or 3 people in here who might stumble up on it. I make/paint the prototype figures that get sent to production for the KWK line (one of the several retro figure companies on the market). Here's the last couple I finished. PN News and Max Moon.

My boy's become obsessed with wrestling figures, he's got all my old ones and starting a collection of his own with the current guys. 

What's the best way to keep up with new releases? He's eagerly awaiting the Jacob Fatu's, Penta's, Rey Fenix etc getting a release. When I was little I got sent out a newsletter with new figs, not even sure where from (got the same from Silvervision for the videos/dvds.) Is there like a toy supplier that I can join the mailing list of? Or even a good website to keep me updated?

You could follow Ringside Collectables for all the latest and upcoming releases, they will cover pretty much everything Mattel release. They are US based, so you won't really want to order from them, but it'll give you a good idea of what might turn up at Smyth's.

Would it be the Elites or the Basics? Home Bargains and B&M always have a good stock the Basics, but aren't too heavy on Elites.

Cheers mate, either or really, he's just looking to build up a roster of the current guys for his figure fed, he's already got most of the main eventers, so it's the new guys or obscure guys he's on the look out for. The Tama Tonga's and El Grande Americano's of this world.

I used to love seeing the knock off wrestling figures at the market when I was a kid, but can’t recall seeing ones that relied on profanity as a selling point.

One for a more general figure chat, any good recommendations for finding these "CharaPro Mini Big Heads"? I'm guessing trying to use Mercari or Yahoo Japan.

yeah signing up for Buyee is the easiest way to do it probably, seen tons of these on there. Always meant to get my hands on the Kuishinbo Kamen. Toudoukan handle international orders really well too .
