I know many people have said it, only to go back. However, after officially running out of space, and the Jakks contract running out soon, I have finished my wrestling figure collection. Now I can just enjoy what I have without further temptation to buy. I have run the gamut from LJN Hulk Hogan, to this...  Yup...Pillman was one of my very favorites, and a great note to end on. |

Such a crappy figure to end on. Brian Pillman was an amazing entertainer, and they honor him with that crap scan.
Congrats on bein done though, i'm not far behind ya.

It might not be the best scan, but it's certainly not the worst ever made. Personally, I like the scan more than I dislike it.

I think the scan looks like him more than people say but it's obviously based on the Loose Cannon/late 90s Pillman when he was very different to Flyin Brian. I don't think the scan works for this version of him and as we have mainly WWF themed CS figures I would rather Jakks just continued with that rather than start throwing in a few random figures that don't fit in with what we already have.
I really liked WCW in 90/91 and watched it religiously, it was the only wrestling on UK tv back then and the Galoobs were some of my favourite figures ever, I would've loved to see more CS figures based off that part of wrestling history. But if we can't get a few decent figures to represent that Era of WCW then I feel repaints like this are a waste of spots.

Why end now when you've got the Hart Foundation one in the last CS set?

Why end now when you've got the Hart Foundation one in the last CS set? As much as I liked the Hart Foundation (both the two man and five man teams), I wanted to have a Pillman from this era. My only gripe, is indeed the constipated MacGyver face. Thanks for the comments everyone. |

So, How bigs your collection then? It is a nice figure, but not something I would want to finish my collection on.

Aside from a bajillion loose figures in storage, I have about 18 or 19 MOCs. I know, not much, but there's a reason behind each purchase.
