WWE: 15 Rarest Wrestling Figures Worth An Absolute Fortune

It's time to search your attics immediately.

Professional wrestling fans are known as one of the most fanatical fanbases there is. The pro wrestling fanbase is not simply limited to the WWE €œUniverse€, independent wrestling diehards, and pro wrestlers in-training who dream of one day becoming a part of what they love so much; there is also a virulent strain of fans who search far and wide for what they want and are willing to throw down hundreds, and even sometimes thousands, of dollars in the process. And those dollars aren't being spent on WrestleMania; they€™re spending it on toys. Wrestling figure collectors are one of the most dedicated fan bases in the world of pro wrestling, often purchasing every version of ever figure, regardless of how many times a toy company regurgitates the same wrestler€™s action figure, without any changes, and releases it as part of a new series line. Not only that, they're also known to purchase multiple figures: one to keep mint, and another to display. They're hardcore, but for good reason - after all, there are specific wrestling figures out there that are worth hundreds of dollars. Wrestling figure collectors are a tight community where you know someone who has that rare figure, or they know someone who has that rare figure, or that rare figure is just urban legend and doesn€™t exist. Unfortunately, unlike other big toy franchises such as Star Wars or Barbie, the pro wrestling figure aftermarket isn€™t as organized. There is no €œofficial price guide€ bible, and it's understandably hard to track value. So, what wrestling figures are considered rare? How do you know when you come across a wrestling figure that€™s possibly worth a fortune? Now, thanks in part to a few private collectors and Jac Sabboth who runs a growing chain of stores, The Wrestling Universe, that deals almost exclusively in collectable pro wrestling action figures, a list of those such figures is available. From Wrestling Superstars, the WWE€™s very first line of action figures, by LJN to WCW first action figure line from Galoob, from the popular WWE action figures series€™ from well known toy companies like Hasbro and Jakks Pacific to wrestling figures you never knew existed brought to you by companies you€™ve probably never even heard of like Remco and Popy these are the rarest wrestling figures that are worth an eye-watering amount of money.
