''Wrestling Superstars'' were the first action figures based on the wrestlers of the WWF. They were made by the toy and video game company LJN from 1984 to 1989. The figures were made of solid rubber and paint and were very accurate in appearance to their real life counterparts. LJN closed its toy division in 1989, cancelling the ''Wrestling Superstars'' line with it. The last 6 figures produced were only distributed by Grand Toys of Canada making them rarer than most of the other figures. The series has become very popular in the collectable market. Due their great abundance and often poor condition most of the figures out of their original package are worth little but figures that remain carded or boxed can command high prices. ==8" Series== The 8" series was the main line in the Wrestling Superstars collection. Each superstar came with a biography card on the packaging and a poster inside. There are 64 figures with unique molds, plus an additional 6 major repaints that change the figures look significantly. The major repaints are Hulk Hogan in a white shirt (red shirt), Tito Santana in Strike Force attire (purple trunks), S.D Jones in a Hawaiian shirt (red shirt), André the Giant (short hair version) with black strap attire (blue trunks), Corporal Kirchner with a painted beard, and the Referee in a white shirt (blue shirt).
