credit to Wrestlingfigs.com I like this figure, but it isn't near as good as it could have been. It really needs a molded on singlet.. but it looks good

That figure is incredible!! I preorderd it as soon as I saw it.
BTW Quake...think we could set up some type of raffle or something that the winner can get an autographed fig? Just wondering.

Awesome, Mr. Tenta has to be loving it!
BTW, why did they put in One Man Gang but not in his Akeem attire? that would sell like hotcakes!

What do you mean a molded on singlet???!!! Do you mean there could be naked Earthquake figures running around?? That would give ME nightmares and scar me for life. Protect your blessed children!

Molded on Singlet mean your tights would been painted on the figure instead of being cloth. So do fear of a naked Earthquake figure, lol. I personally can't wait for the release of it. I really want one. Jakks I think do great work on it. I hope they make a two pack of the Naterial Disasters. That would be sweet.

Hey, Quake, did you have to go into Jakks and have them scan your head, or did u just sign on for a figure and they just took care of the rest?

Now I wish I started getting these when they first came out (ofcourse I would keep them in package and not open, though now with the full size ring for the figures would have to debate) Now we just need a Typhoon to finish the tag team. Oh and here's a closer up shot of Mr. Tenta's fig by it's self. 67.15.129.26/photosWG/photos2/showphoto.php?photo=2976&cat=6321&page=1(dunno if that will work) so wrestlingguide.com is where I found the shot at. (in their Toyfair 2005 coverage) Think this one and Bobby Heenan's will the hardest to find in this line.

Earthquake will be harder because I think there making less. I think they do that for money reason. Since the bigger wrestlers take more material too make. That what for example Yokozuna is hard too find.
I have several classics. I just got Bundy, Ordoff, and Beefcake this passed week.

man, I wish I still collected the wrestling action figures. I dropped out a few years back, but I am seriously thinking about at least getting this Legends line. Some seriously great stuff there. Hope they do a Grand Wizard eventually, though I can see why they'd be skittish with the name.

I can't wait for this toy, seriously, i passed up a chance to buy the yokozuna figure.. which i shouldn't have, you can find any of those crappy hillbilly jim figures everywhere. bah.
i can't wait for the brutalquake figure to come out, I'll even go on ebay if i have to.

I found Yokozuna and King Kong Bundy the other day at a scalper store. They were 20 bucks each. I can't imagine what a shortpacked figure like this one will be. Oh, and a molded on singlet isn't painted on, it's sculpted on. But a non-sculpted one is better for this line, as it is collector oriented. Bundy has a cloth singlet too.

I'm not a big toy guy...but this line is really cool and I've been collecting since last April..I got all of them except Jim Neidhart and Marty Jannetty. You can be darn sure I'm not going to pass on Earthquake...or even Doink for that matter. Also...not to sound like a punk..but what are the chances of getting your John Hancock on one, Mr. Tenta?

I was able to pick up the rest of series 5 today even though I almost got my friend fired since he works at Toys R Us and reserved them for me..I really can't wait for that Quake though...that has to be one of the top 5 classic figures yet...

It's nice to see the Quakeman recognized in the modern WWE, but am I the only one who thinks the body on this figure is a little off? I'm probably remembering incorrectly, but I didn't recall John having thighs that big. John's a big guy, but he was a little more proportionate to his height than that figure. Oh well... I'll probably buy it anyway, because Quake roxors my boxors... whatever that means.

Yeah... I saw it somewhere. I don't know what it means, although I think I can venture a guess, which makes me wonder why I even bothered using it in the first place.
