The Great Sasuke Rubber Decal review

If you were to ask me which Wrestler has the most obscure and barely known collectibles
in Japan, one of the first names I would bring up is The Great Sasuke.

Beyond his Charapro and INSPIRE figures, the Great Sasuke has a wealth of hard-to-find
collectibles. Mostly due to the fact that Michinoku Pro never had the same commercial
success as Japan's more established Puroresu promotions.

Back in 2019, we talked about one obscure Great Sasuke action figure (which you can
check out HERE<-----------------). For Blog #187, we'll be looking at the Great Sasuke
rubber decal.




Before the WWE started "dropping" figpins, The Great Sasuke was featured in a large,
oversized rubber decal.

Every line in this simple illustration is textured with a 3-Dimensional look.



The back of the decal is flat and has no texture. It's also worth noting that this decal didn't
come with any adhesive to easily stick the Sasuke decal anywhere.



Compared to a standard Toukon Shop Antonio Inoki figure, the Sasuke decal is about 4 inches
in height.


It seems The Great Sasuke is eyeing down Togi Makabe!

Though, with a bit of scotch tape folded on the back of the decal, I had no problem sticking
the Sasuke decal to my fridge.

At the moment, I can barely find any information on this particular decal. Whether there
were other Michinoku Wrestlers released alongside Sasuke is still up for debate.
