Lots of Big Rubber Guys news came out of the Major Bendies panel at San Diego Comic-Con yesterday, including several new name reveals, the inclusion of licensed championships and an offshoot line called “Major Moments.”
The whole Major Wrestling Figure Podcast crew shared broke down the news.
Here are some notes …
Wrestling Collector Shop Exclusives
Two Wrestling Collector Shop exclusive Big Rubber Guys were revealed during the panel, including the “Macho King” Randy Savage and Ric Flair in red trunks.
Both are available now. Each retail for $54.99. Flair is expected to ship this fall, while Savage is a winter release.

Ric Flair In-Stock Figure
Following the “Macho Ma” in-stock figure release will be Ric Flair in his powder blue trunks with the Big Gold World Championship. No word yet on release date.
Also, Savage has limited stock remaining before a second batch is ordered. So if you’re after that figure, here’s your chance.
Series 9 Lineup
The full lineup for Series 9 was revealed. Joining Jeff Hardy in the set will be the Brooklyn Brawler and Harley Race.
Hardy was previously announced.
The Brooklyn Brawler brings an enhancement talent into the line.
And maybe the biggest news was Harley Race will come with the NWA 10 Pounds of Gold World Championship.
Those will go up August 1.
Danhausen Coming to a Future BRG Wave
Danhausen will be in a future Big Rubber Guys wave.I don’t believe the series was announced. However, an October pre-order for Series 10 would make sense.
Future Name Only Reveals and Yes, Bad News is One of Them …
Bad News Allen (Brown) is officially in the pipeline of future releases.
A lot of name-only reveals were made, including Bad News, Missy Hyatt, haku, Tonga Kid, the Rock ‘N’ Roll Express, Koko B. Ware, Arn Anderson and Earl Hebner. So a mix of old-school Jim Crockett Promotions talent with Golden Era WWF.
New York Toy Fair Exclusives
Three BRG figures will be exclusive to New York Toy Fair (March 1-4, 2025), including updated versions of Matt Cardona and Brian Myers.
Another version of Sgt Slaughter will also be available at Toy Fair.
Major Moments Starts with Macho Man
BRG is expanding with the addition of Major Moments, meant to capture iconic wrestling moments. The first will be “Macho Man” looking unhinged and delivering a flying elbow drop.
Joe Hendry Gets a Major Bendie
Say his name and he’ll get a Major Bendie. Joe Hendry is available for pre-order now ($34.99). He’s expected to ship in November. Follow the link to get yours.
‘Major Stars’ Line On the Way
A line of stylized figures called “Major Stars” will be coming from Major Bendies. The lineup includes Danhausen, Macho Man, Brian Myers and Matt Cardona.
Here’s a look at three of the four.
