Wrestling fans and toy collectors, get ready for some exciting news! Major League Wrestling (MLW) has just announced a new partnership with Power Town that will revive the beloved WCW-era Galoob action figures. If you’re a fan of classic wrestling toys, this collaboration is going to hit you right in the nostalgia. Known for their posed wrestling figures in the 1990s, Galoob was a big name in the industry, and now they’re set to make a comeback—this time bringing your favorite MLW stars to life.
For anyone who grew up with those iconic WCW figures, this deal is a big win. Power Town has secured a multi-year agreement to produce MLW action figures in the same style that made Galoob famous, giving collectors something to look forward to. According to Power Town, this will be the “biggest offering” of MLW figures ever. While the full roster for the first wave hasn’t been revealed yet, fans can expect to see everyone from popular tag teams like CONTRA Unit and the Rogue Horsemen to rising stars like Matt Riddle and even legendary luchadores from CMLL.
There’s still a bit of a wait, though. The figures are slated for release in 2025, so while we don’t have prototypes just yet, you can bet that anticipation will build as more details are shared in the coming months.
MLW has already dipped its toes into the action figure world before. Their previous collaboration with Boss Fight Studios produced a couple of highly sought-after figures featuring the likes of Killer Kross (who WWE fans know as Karrion Kross) and Jacob Fatu. These figures flew off the shelves and have become prized items among collectors. If you missed out on the originals, you might still be able to snag limited reissues online, with retailers like Big Bad Toy Store offering some of these earlier releases.
But this new partnership with Power Town marks an even bigger leap for MLW. The new line is set to feature a much broader range of wrestlers, giving fans a chance to build out their collections with even more of their favorite stars from the promotion. And the throwback to the Galoob style is sure to appeal to longtime collectors who remember the WCW days.
This isn’t just a win for MLW fans—it’s part of a larger trend in the world of wrestling memorabilia. In recent years, the market for wrestling action figures has exploded, with companies like Mattel creating exclusive WWE figures and podcasts like Major Wrestling teaming up with toy manufacturers like Super7 to produce high-end collectibles. The revival of Galoob, in partnership with Power Town, is another sign that nostalgia is a powerful force in the collectibles market, and fans are eager to get their hands on figures that blend the old with the new.
