They then reviewed new products, including a limited-edition Undertaker bobblehead inspired by the Backlash 2008 poster, and discussed Funko's upcoming releases featuring Uncle Howdy, Jesse Ventura, Bray Wyatt, Jey Uso, and two Rhea Ripley variants.

They admired Foley's ability to stand up for his principles and walk away from the company. The conversation then shifted to new wrestling figures, including Tito Santana in his El Matador gimmick and a highly anticipated Coco Beware figure, which Scott placed on his top 11 list for 2026.   Rob Reiner Event and Licensing Jefry and Scott discussed the upcoming Rob Reiner annual event, which will be the first official one and will feature a "Top 11" list.

They emphasized the importance of including a ring and cage as a package deal, as well as releasing tag team sets. They decided against producing thumb wrestlers and stretch wrestlers but expressed interest in potentially creating Bendy figures in a few years if the LJN line remains successful. The conversation concluded with a brief discussion about potential upgrades to wrestling belts, with Steve mentioning that the classic IC title was next on his wishlist for belt upgrades. Wrestling Belt Nostalgia and Upgrades Jefry and Scott discussed the nostalgia and upgrades of wrestling belts from the 1985-1986 era, highlighting significant improvements across major organizations. They expressed hope for the release of the AWA tag team titles, with potential candidates like the Road Warriors or Hall and Henning, though Scott noted limited options for tag champions.

The boys welcome Brian from the LJN podcast on. Also AI decided to write our show notes for this week.   Wrestling Figures and Personal Updates The hosts welcomed Brian from the Legendary Wrestling Figures podcast to discuss wrestling figures and catch up on his recent activities. Brian promoted his podcast and shared details about his pet cat, Lexington, and the songs he has created for it. The conversation concluded with plans to discuss Brian's recent painting projects in a future segment.   Custom Wrestling Figure Paint Projects Brian shared his recent painting projects, including customizing a Ron Simmons figure for Greg from the Man Bull Pod and transforming a Rick Martell figure for Drew's 5-year anniversary podcast episode. He detailed the specific paint and gear changes he made to each figure, emphasizing the challenges of working with different materials. Brian also discussed his excitement about the upcoming release of LJN wrestling figures, including Wave 3, which will make popular figures more accessible to fans at a lower price point.   LJN Figure Release Discussion The group discussed the upcoming release of new LJN figures from Mattel, with Brian sharing his excitement about the affordable price point and potential for detailed customization. They compared the new figures to original LJN and Big Rubber Guy versions, noting differences in materials and scale. Brian expressed hope for future releases, including a Mr. T figure and a more menacing Adrian Adonis redesign. Scott suggested adding characters from 80s wrestling teams like the Young Stallions and Boris Zukov to fill collection gaps.   Wrestling Action Figures Collectibles Discussion The group discussed various wrestling action figures and collectibles, including Latoonie figures, Road Warriors, and Ringside Collectibles pre-orders. Scott shared his wishlist items, including the Dudley's Ultimate 2-pack and a John Cena figure from the vault. Brian showed off some Jesse and Bundy figures he had collected, which impressed the others. They also mentioned a limited-time offer for Dory Funk Jr. figures at KWK, and briefly touched on a new Matt Cardona vs. Chris Jericho 2-pack from Jazzwares Vault.     Ringside Fest Product Announcements The group discussed new product announcements from Ringside Fest, including figures from the Monday Night War series and other releases.

They also covered Build-A-Figure releases and confirmed that Rick Rude would be a Build-A-Figure in a new suit. The team noted that some figures, like Cody and Penta, were part of the Defining Moments series.    AEW Toy Prices and Closures Jefry and Scott discussed the price point of a new Swerve action figure from AEW, priced at $60, and noted that tariffs were affecting toy prices. They also talked about Super7 closing two stores at the end of the year due to financial challenges, possibly related to tariffs.

They also talked about their personal collecting habits and preferences. The conversation concluded with a brief mention of a wrestling video game. Nostalgic Arcade Wrestling Games Scott and Jefry discussed their favorite arcade wrestling games, with Scott expressing a fondness for WrestleFest due to its nostalgic value and the nostalgia of playing it with friends, despite holding a grudge against it for consuming his childhood money. They compared WrestleFest to its predecessor, WWF Superstars, noting the improved graphics and sound in WrestleFest.

Look, I am going to level with you.. D is a polarizing game. Some may not really even consider it a game but more a form of punishment that you are made to endure. Want to see where the LJN gang lands on the subject*? Then tune in and listen *No John or Robby tonight

AI wrote our show notes, so here is most of what we talk about on this show   Taco Bell Dessert Strategy Debate Scott and Jefry discussed the Baja Blast Pie from Taco Bell, with Scott expressing indifference towards the pie due to its unappealing color and high price. They agreed that Taco Bell should focus on reviving the Choco Taco instead of the Baja Blast Pie to truly dominate the dessert market. Jefry mentioned that he and his coworkers had been discussing the pie on Instagram, noting that reviews were generally underwhelming. The conversation concluded with a reminder for listeners to support the podcast by purchasing shirts from Pro WrestlingTees or WhatAManeuver.net, and to send emails to Fully Poseable WFP at gmail dot com.   2025 Toy Hall of Fame Inductees Jefry and Scott discussed the passing of Norman J. Lewis, co-founder of LJN, and reflected on the impact of LJN's toys and video games.

Finally, they briefly mentioned WWE Minx Collectibles' new series of figures and the upcoming Best of Ultimate Edition Series 7, featuring AJ, Cody, and Undertaker.   Failed ECW Video Game Critique Scott and Jefry discussed Hardcore Revolution, Acclaim's first ECW video game released in 2000 for multiple platforms. They criticized Acclaim for simply reusing and reskinning the WWE Attitude game rather than creating a unique ECW experience, leading to poor reviews and disappointment among fans. The game featured button combinations for moves, terrible graphics, and a basic career mode, while Acclaim's subsequent game, Anarchy Rules, was similarly lackluster. Despite the initial success of Acclaim's WWE games, Hardcore Revolution failed to capture the same magic, and Acclaim eventually went out of business in 2004, with its assets being acquired by THQ   Acclaim's Revival and Gaming Future Jefry and Scott discussed the revival of Acclaim Entertainment in 2025, led by Russell Binder, Mark Kaplan, and wrestler Jeff Jarrett, with Alex Joseph appointed as CEO. They reviewed Acclaim's announcement of nine indie games, including "Katu" and "Basketball Classics," and reflected on Acclaim's past wrestling games, criticizing them for reusing the same engine and not innovating despite competition. Scott and Jefry also shared their disappointment with the ECW Hardcore Revolution game, noting its generic music, poor character animations, and lack of innovation compared to other wrestling games of the time. They briefly discussed eBay prices for various gaming cartridges and the concept of graded video games as collectibles.

The year 1984 marked the beginning of a boom period where pro wrestling engulfed our society. From clothes to lunch boxes to video games & toys, pro wrestling was everywhere. On this episode of The PVDcast, I am joined by 80's Wrestling Fan Brian to talk specifically about LJN's WWF Wrestling Superstars action figures. Brian and I chat about our fandom for these figures and share stories about our collections. Brian also explains the process he uses for repainting them. Many of those repaints feature new outfits and/or color schemes.  For example, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat painted to match his Wrestlemania 3 gear. Stick around for the end of the episode as you will hear the famous Andre Karaoke! Don't forget to rate, review and subscribe to the show & new episodes of The PVDcast drop every Thursday!

1985 was quickly becoming one of the most competitive years in the history of animation, setting the stage for future 80s nostalgia. There were so many classic 80s cartoons released in 1985-- including a unique new series called ThunderCats--that it was going to be difficult to stand out. But fortunately, the production company behind the new show knew a thing or two about capturing the attention of kids, as they had been doing it during the holidays for decades. But now, they were moving to after-school and Saturday morning cartoons.  From the studio that brought us beloved Christmas classics like Rudolph and Frosty came the story of a race of humanoid feline superheroes. With characters like Lion-O and Snarf, and a very popular line of toys from LJN, the ThunderCats quickly became a new breed in children's entertainment, a standout 1980s cartoon, and a pop culture phenomenon.  Check out new shows early, and ad-free: Patreon.com/80s

Released in 1989 exclusively in North America, the Friday the 13th video game for the NES has gained a reputation over the years—but not necessarily a good one. Published by LJN, a company infamous for its poor-quality licensed games, it's easy to dismiss this title outright. However, what if we told you it was developed by Atlus? Could there be more to this game than meets the eye? Is it a hidden gem worth revisiting, or does it deserve to be condemned to retro gaming purgatory? Press B To Cancel now on YouTube!

Look, we are going to level with you here. . Road Rash for the 3DO is peak '90s. Motorcycle street racing with weapons is radical enough. But pair it with FMV cutscenes, chain wallets, and Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage" blaring in the background and it may just be the apex of 90's attitude. So come along for the ride with the LJN crew to see what they think about this EA classic.

This week Jef received something that he forgot about. Shocker right. Scott did some pre orders on BBTS.  In the news, the Rock N' Roll express went up for pre order as well as Bad news Brown.
