I try and avoid Davey Boy promos as he was a great wrestler at times but one of the worst at promos.... I can remember him getting out a helicopter looking tough but pulling a shopping trolley like my mum would have and another (maybe the same time) where he said he was going to win as he was "bizarre!"...

The thing that gets me about the shockmaster things is, even if he didnt trip up, how they thought he would get over anyway... Its Tugboat!! In a glittery Stormtrooper mask!!

Still dont think its quite as bad as when Robocop rescued Sting...

That's the bit that I thought hilarious too! As soon as he had a fight he'd have to take the mask off anyway!

I'd forgotten all about that! WrestleCrap at it's very worst!

If anyone is sufficiently interested do a Youtube search for the Beach Blast 93 promo. That's the one I was referencing earlier with an angry dwarf dressed as a Shark, and Sting and Davey defending a bunch of kids from Vader & Sid! It's terrible!!!

That is officially quite rubbish Annie! Surely that's not the factory paint job?
the whole thing is dogspunk. I don't know whether someone tried to custo it at some point (weird green blobs on the legs, so maybe) but the whole figure leaves a lot to be desired. Weighs about the same as a sick kitten, so you can judge the quality of the plastic.

I've seen this type of action figure a few times on cheap market stalls & cheap-o sea side shops...some have been made & painted almost up to the same high detail standard as the Mcfarlain military series, right through to the same bad qaulity ones as Annies one here.
I don't know if it's a knock off of a knock off or just the same mould being used with cheaper materials by the same company.

Hence the expression "Shockmaster Bad".

For f*ck's sake read! It's on the page!
Like all the Ninja Force figures, Scarlett's body was designed with a "real ninja move". Scarlett's spring-loaded right leg could be pushed back, then released, causing it to spring forward in a kicking motion.

I see Lady Jaye is as eloquent as ever there is a much better custom of Golobulus on Hisstank.com I saw the other day.
