Hubby's Mom is an absolute pack rat. Those are his actual WWF toys from 1984! (The date is stamped on the back.) She gave them to our boys when they stayed overnight recently and they LOVE LOVE LOVE them. I could probably sell them for a pretty penny on eBay!

The one standing was the Iron Sheikh (I think) but the name of the guy laying down escapes me.

Do you think that they can beat up my husband's Star Wars figures?

Ok- I'm glad you explained those in the above comment. I thought they were pretty creepy looking :)

Is one of those Gov Jessie the Body?

Oh my! I know who the one lying down is, but his name escapes me. Oh wait, it was Nikolai Volkoff!

Please don't ask me how I remember/know that. It's scary. :)

Dude. Those guys look like they have mustaches drawn on with Sharpies.

Rowdy Roddy Piper? Jessie the Body? Oh, who am I kidding, I never liked wrestling, although I did meet Brutus Beefcake in the DFW Airport once, although I had no idea who he was, but my wrestling fan friend did. In fact, his wife was on the same plane with him and some other wrestling guy.

Wow, I wrote way more than I thought I would. Night-night.
