Art Design: Window carded WWE Wrestling Gear Gone Badd sets issued in 2003 by Jakks Pacific. Every set includes a two ounce bag of odorific slime.
Mud Match: This set includes a wheel barrow with a steel frame & load dumper, a wooden underlay, and a rolling pneumatic tire. The dumper has some scratch marks weathered onto the red paint. A nice looking shovel is also included. The figure in the photo holding the shovel is a 12" GI Joe, and as you can see it is not too small for a 12" figure. This set is perfect for the 8" WWE wrestlers that it is designed for.
Clean-Up Crew: This set has a nice yellow mop bucket with a lever to squeeze out the mop. The wheels on this bucket do not roll. A very small silver paint bucket is also included along with a mop and a bag of slime. The two buckets are worthwhile for dioramas. The mop is too small for 12" figures, but perfect for the WWE 8" action figures.
Concrete Jungle: This set includes a very nifty gasoline can which is perfect for any non-military diroamas and vehicles. The can looks like it would be about a two gallon size on the scale for 8" figures, and a one-gallon scale size for 12" figures. The handle is large enough for a 12" figure to grasp it. A hard plastic shot-up speed limit sign (10 m.p.h.?) is included which might have some diorama value. A soft rubber tire is also included. Except for the very cool gasoline can, the rest of this set is not very impressive.
Medical Mess: What 12" GI Joe Medical Diorama could be complete without this awesome bedpan? The hard plastic bedpan is about perfect for a 12" action figure. It is huge for the 8" Wrestling figures. The stethoscope is a nice size for the 8" figures and perhaps slightly small for the 12" figures, but it can look good in any Medic Bag or diorama. The hard rubber stretcher is definitely for 8" figures only. It is thin even for the typical WWE wrestling figures.
Overall: Now that GI Joe is going with the 8" Sigma Six series, these Wrestling sets are perfect for the new GI Joe! This WWE Gear Gone Badd series seemed to have one outstanding piece in each set. The slime bags are very messy. The soft slime sticks to everything and it is Toxic if eaten. At the original price of $7.99 per set, I can see why these sets were stacked deep at any store that carried them. On clearance at $1.19 or less (fifteen cents at one Toys R Us) they are a pretty good deal, and those gas cans are neat at fifteen cents each!
