How do you think spray paint works exactly that it would need to be redone repeatedly like that

Maybe the hulkster's bronzer had corrosive properties that necessitated further applications of spray paint

As a kid, it always annoyed me that Hogan spray painted the belt NwO instead of nWo. It's simple branding, dummy!

Went to the toy store and talked to the owner, the collection came from some Kevin Nash super fan that passed away last year. Eventually his brother got tired of holding onto the lot and sold all of it. Additional stuff I saw

• An entire stack of never used Nitro Party red cups
• Multiple sealed boxes of Kevin Nash air fresheners (various designs)
• Not only every official Kevin Nash action figure ever made, but multiple high quality custom Nash figures for Hasbro and LJN
• Multiple Kevin Nash action figure prototypes
• Anything you can fathom being signed by Kevin Nash. Newspapers, basketballs, PPV posters for PPVs he wasn't on
• A very embarrassing Big Sexy license plate to go along with the frame above
• Multiple Kevin Nash masks and Halloween costumes
• Kevin Nash clocks, erasers, pencils, keychains, VHS tapes, napkins, party supplies, etc
• Just so much non-toy WCW junk that the owner is just taking offers or planning to offload it for near nothing

Even before talking to the owner, I figured the guy who owned this stuff had to have passed away or had something catastrophic happen. You don't put this much love and time into a Big Sexy collection and get rid of it for no reason.

I bought a huge box of WCW magazines and a set of these 4.5 inch WCW figures I never even knew existed

As a human who spends way to much time/money collecting a massive amount of crap that will only be a burden to my family when I die, I’ve always thought it was weird when somebody collects a similar amount of crap but dedicated to a single, likely fictional, individual.

Like, I used to post on a board where there was this one guy obsessed with Juggernaut from the X-Men and he had 8 million Juggernaut toys and statues and stuff, all assembled together into one massive shrine. I thought that poo poo was weird as hell and I judged that person in a negative light. I mean yeah, I too have a bunch of X-Men crap but it’s all of the X-Men so obviously that makes it not weird.

Anyway what I’m trying to say is I was wrong and I wish I was friends with the Kevin Nash guy before he died because I find that fascinating.

I remember the Death of WCW book mentioned WCW begged the company to make a Nash freshener to go with the other wrestlers even though it was in low demand.

Now my brain is reeling knowing there were MULTIPLE Nash fresheners. Which one was unwanted? All of them?

There’s a comic store in a small Okanagan town that I’ve gone to every summer vacation for the last 20-something years. The first time I ever went there (so ~1999) they had a set of WCW Matchbox cars for sale, specifically Raven, Glacier and (for a time) Kevin Nash. I don’t know the last time I saw the Kevin Nash car, it was at least ten years ago, but that Raven car and that Glacier car did not move.

For the first ten years or so it was something I ignored, every year I knew they would be there and every year when I went inside, there they were.

About 5 years ago I decided “No, this year is the year. This is the year i buy the Glacier Car and the Raven Car”. What better home could they have? But every year i went in to that store, for some reason, it felt like a challenge. “Well they’re still here this year, maybe they’ll still be here next year?”

So I pushed it. Every year I went into that store and those stupid WCW cars were there it was like a comfort blanket, over the years multiple friends and lovers had come and gone, but every year, no matter what, Glacier and Raven were there.

Until the summer of 2022

Last vacation I walked in that store, a few things had changed or moved around. There were less comics, the back issues were gone, in their place a bunch of board games that I guess people play.

But in that back section, sandwiched in between the old Spawn toys and Star Wars, there was a void.

They were gone

I now, truly, know the meaning of the word regret.

I distinctly remember having two wanking Big Sexy figures: one you pushed a little stick into his back and the other you clasped his legs together. I wonder if there were any more variants.
