Hot off the heals of our look at Gory Bomb just a couple of weeks back, it would appear sculpting powerhouse Daniel Yu is well on the way to completing yet another must have figure, the Luchador Stallion! Whilst we can’t confirm whether the piece adopts the same custom bootleg approach as the aforementioned G’Bomb, it would definitely seem that this guy has also been modified from a vintage Hasbro wrestling figure- albeit with some rather intense re-sculpting! Drawing obvious comparisons with Ewok One’s classic Horselington vinyl, it would be a shame to see this dismissed as a copy, as Daniel has already made this hilarious design his own- and that’s without even checking the rest of the body! Presumably to be released alongside Gory Bomb as a lucha tag-team/versus pack in the near future, we suggest keeping a close eye on Daniel’s IG feed here for more news soon…
UPDATE// Since writing the post, Daniel has since posted a full reveal- and it is indeed another custom wrestler action figure! This is actually the first test pull rather than a sculpt, so we can hopefully expect the first release sometime soon…
