Jay's Grade — our honest in-house call, not third-party slabbed.
WWE Retro Shinsuke Nakamura Action Figure (2018 Mattel)
Mattel's WWE Retro line was a love letter to the Hasbro WWF figures of the late 1980s and early 1990s — chunky proportions, bold card art, and gimmick action features that made those originals so iconic. Nakamura's 2018 entry hit shelves right as his main-roster WWE debut was generating serious buzz, making it a dual-appeal piece for both "King of Strong Style" devotees and collectors chasing the full Hasbro-era aesthetic. Sharing wave shelf space with Bray Wyatt, Daniel Bryan, and Sting (item FML33, Asst. FML20), this release stands out as a crossover collectible that resonates across wrestling generations.
This is a vintage carded example. The red and black card displays the retro-styled WWE logo prominently, with the header "STRONG STYLE HAS ARRIVED!" in bold. The card graphics feature Nakamura in his red leather jacket entrance gear — the same imagery seen on the card front photo. The bubble presents the figure in strong condition with the red and black ring gear clearly visible. The pull-back Kinshasa action feature is intact, and the branded red-and-black oval "Strong Style" display base is present and secured in the bubble. Card corners show age-consistent light wear; the bubble remains firmly attached with no significant lifting or separation. The card back clearly shows the four-figure wave lineup, Kinshasa action-feature instructions, and the WWE Mayhem app panel.
Jay's Toys sources and personally assesses every vintage carded figure before listing — what you see in these images is the exact piece you'll receive. We stand behind the condition described here, and returns are accepted if the item materially differs from this listing. Authentic Mattel, © 2018, Made in China. If you're building a complete WWE Retro run or hunting a sharp Nakamura card from his peak WWE era, this is a hard one to pass up.

Jays is my first stop in collecting. I preorder things through Walmart, Amazon, Hasbro Pulse, etc., but Jays always seem to get the items and either meet or beat the other companies pricing. I always end up cancelling my pre-orders and going with Jays. Better selection, price and MUCH MUCH better shipping quality. You can't even compare anyone else's shipping and packing to Jays. And that's why Jay's blows them all out of the water.
Great fast shipping, packaging with care. I am definitely buying from Jay's again! Such peace of mind knowing my items will arrive minty. 5 stars!
Perfect and careful packaging, shipped super quick. Thank you, will definitely be following the store!
Didn't pull any punches in item description. Came extremely fast and well packed. Extremely happy being a first time buyer! Thank you.
I've been buying from Jay's for a while now and I am never disappointed with the experience. Prices that can't be beat, easy PayPal option, and lots of bubble wrap surrounding the products. The fact that they go out of their way to make consumers happy keeps me coming back.
This is my 3rd or 4th time I have ordered from Jay's. The orders are always correct and arrive pretty quick and packaged extremely well. Best in the industry.
