Finally came across a cheap UK wrestling ring that is ideally sized for M.U.S.C.L.E. figures.

Poundland is selling these under its Funtastic brand. Apart from being cheap and the correct size, it's also notable for its unusual shape.

Excuse the crappy pics, but hopefully you get the idea

Those look like bootlegs of AAA and CMLL toy rings. Both of those leages are noted for having six-sided rings. Cool find!

i just bought one but it is a square ring...4 bucks on ebay shipped cant beat that!! ive wanted a ring to customize for awhile now and at 4 dollars i can afford that even though im broke!!

I kind of want some of the hexagonal ones now... I have always liked their look. I love that the break-away table is an obnoxious red.

What I found was a ring for 5" figures. Not as exciting. But, great find, Stronty.

ohhhh.got ya...i didnt realize they were that size....

This kind of makes me want to make a custom ring, from scratch.
I say "kind of", because I effing hate industrial design.

It has been discussed. It'd be a real pain in the ass, though... Depends on the demand, if we'd reproduce something like that.

i was thinking of making a crazy display for them but i just cant find the time...and when i have the time i don't feel like doing anything!

[ironmask]

We've talked about doing several display items. We're accessorizing soon. Let Eric know that you guys want that stuff, and maybe we'll make it happen. I'd love to get into contact with Chesepeake (the distributor of these KO rings) to maybe get something into Dollar Tree stores, or something. I'd be willing to donate the ring and a few figgies just to make that happen.

yea man all of that sounds super awesome!!!

[ironmask]

Getting in touch with the right people, is going to be the tricky part.

[PlasticSoul]

I would be all over a ring you guys made.

[TheRiddler]

i picture an arena for the uofv figures to look like the arena on coneheads the movies where dan aykroyd narfles the garthok!!!

[Ericnilla]

A custom ring and a bleachers would be pretty sweet, Resin/ rubber.

Yes! Something more like a gladiatorial arena with rocks for cover would be right at home for the UoV guys. Funny, I just wrote something about how one of the things I love about UoV is that it's not strictly about wrestling, and then here you guys are, talking about wrestling rings...

[Ericnilla]

Yeah i would see it more of a arena than a ring, but who knows... We do have a lot of stuff coming up soon.

[DrBo]

Great find Strontium Dog!

A ring set always round up a wrestling lineup

As of note, the figure appears to be Jakks Pacific's WWE Micro Agression aggression knock-off, the mini line that ran a few years during Jakks tenure with the WWE license. Some great ring / carry case sets have been made under that brand, and the figure are M.U.S.C.L.E.-sized.

I pictured it as kind of a cross between a wrestling arena, tenkachi budokai arena, and something straight out of hell.
It will probably be designed with four posts, but if I can do it right, should look right with or without ropes.
