1993 was a very bizarre period for WCW. Rude never became WCW champion exactly but he won the big gold belt in 1993 from Flair but at that point in history the big gold belt splintered off and became known as the WCW International title and the WCW title was something else. Eventually in June 94 they retired the WCW belt that Flair was holding, gave him the big gold belt and renamed it the WCW world title after unifying the belts. 1993 was such a mess for WCW!
Respectfully disagree on your order - I understand your reasoning with Chase Rick Rude with the WCW title instead of the U.S title but for me that was the best one as that attire is from his dangerous alliance days which I’m a fan of. The way I see it is I’ll just give that WCW title without the WWE logo to another figure and give Rude the U.S title - problem solved! Loved the video and the content bro 👊
Sid’s head scan is just fantastic. Rude’s also great. [Bret Hart has left the chat] Edit: The Bret/Taker two-pack was my absolute favorite Bret scan from Mattel. Immensely underrated head scan, that one.
This might be a stupid question so I apologise in advance. As a new collector here in the United Kingdom, when I go into Smyths and see two figures on the shelf is there generally anything on the package to identify which is the original and which is the Chase please?
@ thank you Kyle. I can watch your excellent reviews to help me when “on the hunt” as you say. Keep up the excellent work and thank you for taking the time to reply.
1. Sid his peak as a performer imo 2. Ravishing Rick World title also his peak 3. Bret Hart love the pink attire and headsculpt i agree better 4. Rick Rude U.S. but gotta add a title 5. Justin Hawk good choice for a representation bad execution. Also pretty sure you mean didn't have the warrior to deal with as his last match as a loss to the warrior with no plans made to get that win back. Just saying Rude had to deal with more than one heavy in WWF.
My store pick-up order is a dark version Sid. It was the second one I got. First had a molding defect where a big part of the left shoulder was not there exposing the circular hinge underneath. Don't recall the hair color on that but my second one from the store is definitely the dark-haired version. Also got a chase rude from a store pick-up order.
Not sure how anyone can picture Sid in their minds with Brown hair. Sid was synonymous with that ridiculously golden blonde hair. There isn't a time where he actually had brown hair. Odd that people see it that way. As far as the figures go...He really lacks a good tan...and the updated hair really is more skin colored than actually capturing the light blonde look. I'll have to see it in person to know which I prefer but I'm leaning towards the updated one.
You must not be that into wrestling. You should Google before you comment. One quick search of sid vicious wrestler and you will see him with brown hair. He def had it back in Memphis. Even a little darker than the toy he showed
Honestly, neither Sid and neither Rick rude are right. Sid’s blonde hair IRL was almost yellow like badly colored. I think they should’ve done yellow hair with a hot dog tan.
The “blonde” variant is almost flesh colored and looks more like a factory defect. I’m happy with my dark haired version.
8:53 the head sculpt looks incredible
Both look amazing great detail awesome throw and review 👍 😎
Got my chase yesterday, sitting right there for the plucking, simply ravishing
Awesome unboxing and review + rankings
How about an Ultimate edition Sid in jeans when he was in wcw? I'd like to have that figure
1:03 just a reminder that Mattel Creations is selling limited supplies of Legends 25 at their website
Would it be possible for you to let everyone know who would be in the next series after the ranking videos... Love these thank you
I'll never forget the move Rick Rude put Fancine in during his ECW run. Good times.
Ha ha
That Rick Rude's rockin. Top one Nice one
I love this Sid. To me, it's the best Sid yet
That rude variant is 🔥
Steve said on the case fresh podcast there will be no change to the rude they just forgot the tattoo
@@Mitchybabysc this was filmed over a week ago
@ not knocking you I’m just saying for the viewers
Yea my hitman also had bad paint on the back of the tights, it’s a little smeared like someone touched it when the paint was wet

That's exactly what I did. US title with the variant I got.
They could’ve given Sid a Production Camera as an accessory
Rude has been hitting the shelves this week. Haven't found the chase yet.
Awesome figures got em 🤘🤘👍👍👌👌
Great set, would like to get all these but will probably struggle in uk

In the list of guys who have held BOTH WWF and WCW championships; Flair, Hogan, Macho, Nash, Hitman Hart and Sid….. am I missing anyone?
The Giant/The Big Show.
@ Well done. I totally forgot about him.
this ranking of the legend figure still the best include you kyle😊

No you got to look at the figure
@ thank you Kyle. I can watch your excellent reviews to help me when “on the hunt” as you say.

Did Rick ride even have the anchor tattoo during his wcw run?
1. Chase Rude
2. Regular Rude
3. Sid
4. Bret
5. Bradshaw
Personally I only picked up the chase Rick, the tights are SO badass!
I need a Rude tat decal asap
I took Bradshaws jacket and put it on my bruiser Brodie powertown fig .. great soft goods
Wouldn't the hat that we got with the cowboy bob work to
It doesn’t look like the one on the Bradshaw packaging, but it is a cowboy hat
If I'm not mistaken, didn't Terry Funk get his ass beat in Over The Top?
1. Sid his peak as a performer imo
2. Ravishing Rick World title also his peak
3. Bret Hart love the pink attire and headsculpt i agree better
4. Rick Rude U.S. but gotta add a title
5. Justin Hawk good choice for a representation bad execution.

I got the dark haired version in person however
How could you forget to mention stunning steve austin as part of the dangerous alliance?!?!?!

Yep things are getting mixed now with returns as I’ve said. I just referred to originally release
@@KylePeterson1980 I got him day 1.
Just paint Sid justice head with dyed blond and gold and you just completed a true fx Sid 😂
How rides had to end was I believe sting took his place by accident in an NJPW Match?
No anchor in this set...in so many ways lol 😂
Man I don't know ..just looks unpainted to me . Its 100% possible with that Vietnam factory 🏭
Classic superstars sid is still better than Mattel version

I mean light brown not talking dark brown
