Hollywood Hulk Hogan Action Figures

Earlier this year at the San Diego Comic Con, wrestling fans were treated to a render of the new Ultimate Edition Hollywood Hulk Hogan by Mattel. Some fans had a complaint, however.

When I was about 11, I was hospitalized for what turned out to be a panic attack.

Old School: WWE Ice Cream & Action Figures

If you were a real American child in the 1980s and 1990s, you will remember that Good Humor Ice Cream produced the most amazing ice cream product since the Klondike Bar.  No, it was even better than the Klondike Bar, perhaps even better than the invention of the ice cream cone.
