Best custom Gorilla Monsoon figure (ever), duelling 8-bit theme songs, original commentary, LJN Superstars and all-out action? Best video of WrestleMania weekend, no contest!

[@AnkleSnapper72]

Have loved wrestling for nearly 40 years now. Great job on re-making the WM3 classic, LJNs are still the best wrestling figures ever made.

[@docnightfall]

I was more of a GI Joe and Ninja Turtles kid, but this brings back such good memories of afternoons spent knocking action figures together. Ah, life used to be so simple...

[@q-dawwg626]

This is EXACTLY how I remember it back in 1987 WW3. PERFECTLY DONE 😅 You brought so many great memories. Thank you so much

[@alexm4544]

Literally every kid that ever owned these toys! The set up, commentary team at ringside and recreation loved it!

[@mikeofmanymikes2630]

Amazing! From the mint condition figures used, the background music, the announcing, and the actual wrestling skills your hands were exercising. This really made my day. Actually gave me goosebumps because it took me back. Maybe more videos like this in the future...... Cheers!

When is Lex Luger going to slam Yokozuna on the USS Flag?

[@lo1bo2]

Admit it Michael, you had too much fun making this!!!

[@ModernVintageTV0]

Shame LJN never made an official Gorrilla Monsoon figure. Such a missed oppertunity. Could've paired him up with not only the Jesse "the Body" Ventura figure,but with the Bobby "The Brain" figure as well.

[@mikesmith2718]

This is why I like the videos before I even watch them ! Content like this makes this channel unique and amazing ! Awesome job brother

[@drewthomp]

This is so well done. You are a very talented guy. If you didn't know the match so well, you cannot even begin to realize how good this really is. Your timing, your use of sound effects, your background, your custom Monsoon, it is all top notch. Amazing job. Thank you for this. I am a fan of yours forever now!

[@danfrancisco6991]

SO SO SO SO MUCH RESPECT for you using the original audio clip for Steamboat's entrance music when he would come out to Alan Parson's Project's Sirius. It drives me nuts when the WWF dubs in his 90s run theme when he was dressed up as dragon. This video really took me back to '87 when I was a diehard Steamboat fan. I've re-watched that WM3 classic so many times but your version is the one that brought the biggest smile to my face all because you sourced the original audio to recreate this awesome moment in time. It's this kind of attention to detail that makes your channel so great! Keep up the great work and I can only hope that there will be a Warrior/Hogan WM6 classic in the pipeline!

Loved the sound effects

[@greglemieux9809]

🤣🤣🤣 I'm loving the King Kong Bundy turned into Gorrila Monsoon.👍👍👍

[@OldManTheseDays]

Haha, this is GREAT!!! These LJN WWF toys were impressive... excellent play value for what are more or less rubber statues. So much charm!

[@thodthverdthur]

I was able to watch this as a rental at my Grandmas house back in 87.

[@frozenpumpkin9083]

This was fun! Brought back a lot of memories of playing with these LJN figures with friends. All I owned was JYD and Beefcake but the kids down the street had pretty much all of the figures plus the ring.

[@ThatKiwiDudeTV]

It's almost like you knew it's Wrestlemania weekend. Surely not. Edit: I loved this way too much, they didnt need fancy sculpt articulation or paint but hell, we had so much fun with these big rubber bad asses.

[@justafanofnerdculture7602]

WOW!!! I can honestly say, that this video got me more hyped for Wrestlemania 35 today than anything else! The LJN WWF figures are my all time favorite action figures, Wrestlemania 3 is my all time favorite Wrestlemania and Steamboat Vs Savage is one of my favorite matches. Love the King Kong Bundy/Gorilla Monsoon hybrid custom. Did you customize those ring carts? They're beautiful! Very impressive that you were able to control all of those figures at once, even with the magic of editing. I felt like I was 13 years old again watching this, much appreciated!! Happy Wrestlemania Sunday, to you and the Mrs, Sir!!

[@SmashVentura]

WOW!!!! AMAZING! You hit my nostalgia viewing and nostlgia toy feelings all in one production. Great job! 10/10
