WWE has just released their new Classic Superstars #16 series.
They included some awesome characters from the past with this new wave of action figures. X-Pac, Psycho Sid, Ultimate Warrior, Giant Gonzales, Vince McMahon and Shawn Michaels.
X-Pac - The details on this action figure is pretty good.They got his facial expression right. His body might be more muscular than he actually was, though. Nice move putting him in DX gear. That should help spark more interest in this character.
Psycho Sid - Very detailed. Very good. Nice that they remembered his long elbow pad.
Ultimate Warrior - Probably the best action figure in the entire batch. The details are incredible.They even put effort into making his tassels on his arms and boots. Well done.
Giant Gonzales - Another great action figure.The details are tremendous. The body suit just looks awesome. Plus, it’s cool to see a character like this being brought back. Sure wished we knew where this guy was now a days.
Vince McMahon - It’s about time they went and did an old school Vince McMahon character. We were getting tired of seeing the same old Vince McMahon action figure in suits.
Shawn Michaels - Honestly, they didn’t put a lot of effort into this action figure when it comes to details. However, Shawn Michaels fans will probably want it just for their collection, though.

I actually researched a bit on Giant Gonzales a few months back. He moved back to Argentina, got very ill and is confined to a wheelchair. He’s reportedly been through some rough times financially,I even encountered a webpage dedicated to asking for anyone who could help him giving him a job. I just found this video of him receiving said help. His speech is translated on the comments for those of you who don’t speak spanish.
