Ever since I knew that Hogan was in the 1981 Popy figure set I knew I had to have one. I did a little research and found a guy in the Netherlands that had one. He had no idea how I found him, but I sent him paypal and it just landed tonight. I know it is a sin to crack open an item that has been sitting there for 33 years but I can't help it as I want this XRC of Hulk Hogan in a PSA slab. I needed this one for a soon to be set registry. Anyways, I am excited to have found this card and discovering a card as big as this.

    That is awesome Rob!!!!

    The Hogan looks like it is in pretty good shape too.

    What other cards did you get in the pack?

    Great find. Congrats on scoring one. The hogan is definitely on my want list.

    When you opened the pack did it follow the sequence you were thinking? I'm wondering if a Hogan would ever be under the top card. So far we've only seen it on the top. Great pickup! You are going to inadvertently drive up the price for these unopened packs if you keep it up!
  • wrestlingcardkingwrestlingcardking Posts: 4,555 ✭✭✭✭
    I have now busted four of these and I see no form of sequencing to date but I have yet to see a Race or a Hogan anywhere but the top card of the pack. I don't think I have seen enough of these to form any sort of opinion on sequencing......

    I got the Bob Backlund slabbed to break the ice on this set and also have these Hulk Hogan cards signed from the same 1982 set. I am going to send them in under the red flip special during the next go around.

    Nice to see them slabbed. The 81 Popy hogan is a huge card IMO.

    I want to get a signed Hulk Hogan Popy as my next big "get". Finding the card is the current issue as I want one slabbed unsigned too.

    I have been wanting to send these in on a red flip special. When was the last time that PSA has had one? It seems like it has been a while.
