The Major Wrestling Figure Podcast

Though it may sound silly, two things that this podcast about wrestling figures has provided me are comfort and confidence. Through the last few years of life changes, highs, lows, and everything in between, I’ve always been able to look forward to the weekly episodes and YouTube videos as a form of routine and comfort. I’ve also found great confidence through this podcast, again which may sound strange at first. When I first started listening, I would hide my figures from my friends, girlfriend, and family because I was so embarrassed to be an adult collector. Through years of listening and being part of this community, I’ve learned to really not care what anyone else thinks and to just be happy in my own hobbies and interests. I’ve found a sense of uniqueness in myself and my personality, I’m so much more comfortable and positive with this outlook and it’s all thanks to a silly little podcast about wrestling figures. Thanks for the hours of entertainment, laughs, motivation, and sense of community. Also, way off topic, there’s a local lawyer in my town of Vernon, CT with the name Mark R. Spurling. I drive by the sign everyday on my way to work and get a good laugh every time. Thanks again boys, yall are the best!!

I can’t stress to you how much I’ve enjoyed this podcast. It’s been so much fun to be a part of the community and the Facebook group. Worth every penny. Everyone has been amazing and helpful. Each week is a new trip down memory lane. If you’re looking for something to be a part of, give this group, or dare I say family, a try. The only regret you’ll have is not doing it sooner. Thanks for all you guys do for us.

LJNs, Ninja Turtles, and GI Joe and collecting them were my childhood! Even as an adult I continued collecting but about 10 years ago lost my way. Wrestling is in my blood, my grandparents loved wrestling, my dad loved it and promoted it for a while in Maine. He loved and used to take me and buy me LJNs! He took Ill a few years ago and kept it to himself, when I found out it was hard. When I saw Matilda it took me back! Thought dad would love seeing that with my LJN Bulldogs! I bought the bulldogs and they showed up 3 days before my dad passed, I got to show him, and we watched a lot of wrestling those final days! Since then I started collecting again. I need 1 LJN to complete my LJN Fig Fed(not counting Brother Love and the Bushwhackers, come on guys! Bad News with the rat is ordered)and I have gone ALL IN on Big Rubber Guys!!!! I also have been bingeing the podcast HARDCORE from the beginning! I am up to July 2023! Thank you for the memories, the inspiration, and making collecting cool again!

Huge fan of the program! I just recently got into wrestling figure collecting. With all the different companies and different series under Mattel alone it can be a bit overwhelming trying to “figure” out which is which. Thanx to you guys I can now understand it all. I really dig the story’s from Matt, Brian and marks past of their old fig feds. It really brings me back to the days when me and my brother used to each have our own wrestling figure federations and would met up in each other’s room for huge PPV’s. We used all types of action figures beside just wrestling figs like TMNT, Rambo, Indiana Jones, ect. We had a stage and ramp build out of Encyclopaedia Britannica’s and had an old silver Panasonic boom box we used to play tapes through for the ring entrances. We would record the audio from our matches with commentary and even wrote down all of our match cards in a notebook. Thanks for bringing back some of my fondness childhood memories. keep up the fantastic work!
