The Story

Step into the golden era of professional wrestling with this authentic LJN Wrestling Superstars figure of "Luscious" Johnny Valiant from 1985. Part of LJN's groundbreaking line that brought WWF personalities into collectors' hands, this figure captures the flamboyant manager and former tag team champion in his prime.

Johnny Valiant was one of wrestling's most colorful personalities during the 1980s, known for his outrageous promos and managing some of the WWF's biggest names. This figure stands as a testament to LJN's commitment to capturing the larger-than-life characters that defined an era of sports entertainment.

The LJN Wrestling Superstars line revolutionized action figure collectibles with solid rubber construction and remarkable likenesses that set them apart from contemporary toy lines. These figures became instant classics among fans who grew up watching Saturday morning wrestling.

This example presents with honest wear consistent with nearly four decades of existence. The card shows edge and corner wear with discoloration, visible bending in spots, and a previous price sticker in the top right corner—all hallmarks of a figure that has survived the journey from Reagan-era toy aisles to today's collector market. For enthusiasts seeking to complete their LJN roster or add a piece of wrestling history to their collection, this represents an affordable entry point for a character that remains beloved by old-school fans.

The Grade, Explained

Every graded piece is our honest in-house call — not third-party slabbed. Here's exactly where this one lands, and why.

  1. CC-10 Pristine
  2. CC-9 Near Mint
  3. CC-8 Excellent
  4. CC-7 Very Good
  5. CC-6 Good
  6. CC-5 Fair
  7. CC-4 Poor / Display Only

This piece: CC-5 — Fair

Heavy wear. Multiple creases, significant corner damage, possible small tears. Bubble may be partially detached, cracked, or heavily yellowed. Still carded but shows its age hard.

Condition notes:
Corners and edges of card are wrinkled/discolored. Card itself is bent in some spots. Previous price sticker is present in the top right corner of the card.

The Stuff You’re Probably Wondering Before You Smash ‘Buy Now’

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How Fast Do We Ship?

Most in-stock orders placed before 12 PM CST ship the same day. We’re label-printing, box-packing machines — without skimping on quality. Your tracking number will probably show up before you’ve even closed the tab.

How Do We Pack Orders?

Every item gets collector-grade treatment: bubble wrap, proper padding, and zero envelope crimes. We pack like your grail’s riding shotgun with us — damage rate is under 1%.

Are You Actually Collectors Too?

Yep. We’ve been hunting plastic treasures since the ‘90s. We speak fluent collector (MOC, BAF, grail hunting), we’ve camped outside stores for midnight releases, and we run this place like the shop we always wished existed. Professional enablers at your service. 😎

What's Your Return Policy?

30 days to decide if it’s true love. Not happy? Full refund to your original payment method. Damaged? We replace or refund fast. Just keep items in the condition you got them, and we’ll make it right — because the only drama in collecting should be choosing a display pose. One exception: trading card game product is final sale, since a sealed box can’t be verified once it leaves our hands.

Pre-Orders: How They Work

Calling dibs costs you $0 today — we only charge your card when it ships. No awkward “I paid months ago” limbo. Mixing in-stock + pre-orders? In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders). Dates can shift — we’ll keep you posted faster than Spider-Man slings webs. And if we ever can’t deliver (rare), you’re not charged a dime.

Still Stumped? Let’s Talk.

We’re real collectors who actually answer — no bots, no scripts, no hold music. Shoot us a message and we’ll get back faster than you can refresh your tracking number.
