Toys That Made Us Detail Rare Kamala Figure, Zack Ryder Chimes In

The hit Netflix series Toys That Made Us recently took to Twitter and posted the following regarding the exceptionally rare Hasbro yellow card moon belly Kamala figure, “Rumor has it that the “Moon Belly” version of this Kamala wrestling figure is so rare that Hasbro only produced 24 of them total! It’s somewhat of a mystery why the rest of the Kamala figures were produced with a star on his belly instead of Kamala’s trademark moon design, but some believe it was due to legal issue with Kamala’s rights to the moon belly design. This figure easily fetches between 3,000 & $10,000 on the collectors market. Hasbro’s Kamala moon belly figure is easily considered the rarest, most expensive wrestling figure around.”

Toys That Made Us also posted the following photos:

WWE Superstar and action figure expert Zack Ryder chimed in with his own take. Ryder pointed out that the moon belly Kamala figure shown isn’t actually authentic. The WWE Superstar hosts (along with Curt Hawkins) The Major Wrestling Figure Podcast, a weekly podcast detailing his adventures in the world of action figure collecting. Ryder noticed that something didn’t add up about the Kamala figure pictured and added, “That’s not even a real moon belly Kamala figure in that picture.”

Ryder should know. The WWE Superstar apparently owns one of the rare 24:
