Bluefin Releases New Figures Of Iconic WWE Wrestlers From Tamashii Nations

By Dustin Cabeal

I mostly find that WWE figures are ugly and pointless because they can never keep up with the story lines. After all, the WWE would have to stick with a storyline long enough to reveal it to a toy manufacturer. But that's why they constantly pump out the iconic wrestlers and I will full admit that these Bluefin/Tamashii Nations figures are pretty damn cool looking. Doubt I'll actually pick them up, but I'm sure some wrestling fans out there with taste in action figures will be excited.

Press Release

Bluefin, the leading North American distributor of toys, collectibles, and hobby merchandise from Japan, steps into the ring with new S.H. Figuarts WWE action figures from Tamashii Nations featuring iconic professional wrestlers The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Triple H.

Tamashii Nations’ new 6-inch wresting figures are their first products developed for the WWE Universe. The figures are fully poseable with over 30 points of articulation and each figure makes use of Tamashii’s proprietary Digital Color Technology on the head sculpts, resulting in portraits with an uncanny lifelike resemblance to the WWE superstars.

All S.H. Figuarts WWE figures are packed with signature accessories, optional expression parts, and interchangeable hands.

The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin figures are available now at Toys R Us stores and hobby and specialty shops nationwide, including RingsideCollectibles.com. Triple H debuts this week, first at RingsideCollectibles.com, followed by retail and specialty shops. Then in July “The Brothers of Destruction” Undertaker and Kane—available for pre-order now—join the line.
