The Blot is beyond excited for the release of Zombie Sailor Toys’ new action figure line, Wrestling’s Heels and Faces! Inspired by the iconic WWF Hasbro 4” action figure toy line of the early ‘90s, Wrestling’s Heels and Faces revisits that beloved style of figures – with a modern update – and will feature professional wrestlers from the ‘80s, ‘90s and today! What’s really neat about this toy line is all five figures were designed by Ron Rudat, the original WWF Hasbro figure designer, which really brings things full circle.
The Wrestling’s Heels and Faces toy line is a labor of love by ZST, who is a huge collector of WWF Hasbro figures and always hated how many legendary wrestlers from that time period were not included in the WWF Hasbro line or may never have gotten an action figure at all. Wrestling’s Heels and Faces changes all that! Plus, each figure is officially licensed and the wrestlers (or their estate) will be paid a percentage of every figure sold.
Wrestling’s Heels and Faces Series 1 will include professional wrestling legends Dino Bravo, Sabu and referee Earl Hebner, along with current stars and hosts of the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast, Matt Cardona and Brian Myers. What’s amazing about this wave of figures is that it will be Dino Bravo’s first wrestling figure ever and the first ever referee in this style of wrestling figure! Each figure will be packaged on a full color blister card designed by John Lucas Reyes, which is a modern twist on the classic WWF Hasbro card designs.
Wrestling’s Heels and Faces Series 1 Action Figures by Zombie Sailor Toys will go up for pre-order at 8pm ET this Thursday, June 17th, at ZombieSailor.com and will be available for 2 weeks. They will retail for $39.95 each and the pre-order for each figure will be capped at 2,500 pieces, but the total number could be less than that making these truly limited edition wrestling figures that you will not want to miss out on!
