I dont know if it was just me but i was really looking forward to a Vince RA fig. We FINALLY got news we would get one and saw the proto at a toyfair which looked like this  Which was scheduled for RA27 as shown through its proto:  Only for it to be delayed due to issues with the scan. In which led to us getting the figure in RA28 but with a different scan and suit combo.  Now dont get me wrong, the RA28 one is pretty nice, especially the suit combo but i must admit i prefer the scan we saw at toyfair and in the ra27 proto. I think it looked spot on. So, was anyone really looking forward to this Vince before finding out it was pulled, dleayed and changed? |

Wow you are right that toyfare prototype looks great. I am sad that we missed out on this. Does anyone remeber the "bald vince" now that was funny stuff.

They released that in the best of RA 2007 wave 2. He's talking more about the scan which is slightly different. I like the proto but RA28 wasnt bad at all. Basically all Vince figures have been good except his 1st TTL scan and the BCA figures |

This vince was the initial one in which they must have had problems thus the delay from RA27 to RA28. I mean RA28 is still very nice and im so pleased we got a vince, its just i really liked this one we saw and shame it was never released as is. |

That original scan was really cool!
I own that Vince but I hadn't noticed the change to his face.
The first one did have more character, but the second one is good too.
I just want that Linda McMahon to arrive...& a suited Shane wouldn't go astray either. Hopefully CS Stephanie will be suited.

The RA27 proto actually looks nice. It should be labelled as the Evil "You're Fired!" Vince variant.

That proto is so much better than any other Vince figure.
I also was looking forward to a Vince RA figure...along with the "ring gear" Vince that was supposed to come with Umaga

 The DA 9 Vince is at least a nice alternative to "Happy" Vince! |

I wanted the "Psycho, doo-rag" wearing Vince proto that was to come out with Umaga when he had his *cringes* ECW Championship run.
I wish they would make a "Million Dollar Mania" Vince in that pimp bluish-lavender suit he was rocking during the contest.

the old scan just looks more like Vince, like he's about to FIRE someone.

OMFG that scan is superb! I'd totally forgotton about this, how could "scan issues" take a figure from evil-grin total scan perfection to pin headed old woman total scan dodginess? The scan they used isn't terrible but it has no expression and is very small (especially for the suit body) The DA one is alot better and that unrelesed one, which looks exactly like the DA one with a different/better expression, is easily the best overall. I would love it if they used that scan in CS22, it would make it a 2 figure series instead of just one. I'd even rather have that bald do ragged one, it probably looked alot better in person without the down lighting.
As Vince is the owner of WWE and has played quite a permanent active role on screen for 3 decades I would expect him to have a load of figures, not 3 with one being a bit crappy (CS16) There should be an Evolution Of Vince boxset, a 3 Faces Of Vince Boxset, McMahon Family Boxset, Vince in 70s announcer gear, 80s announcer gear, 90s announcer gear, Vince from all his PPV matches, Vince In Hospital Bed w/ Mankind and accessories, Vince as ECW Champion, Vince with Money Podium thing, there is literally endless possibilities of figures and sets with the head of the company that everyone knows so well. But Jakks have just rereleased the same lazy RA (a small/boring head on big generic body) a few times and the DA once, the CS16 barely counts as they should've used a real scan head and the CS22 is just some old parts chucked together (that will look bad if done like the proto) So many missed opportunities. I hope we get at least one more (new) Vince McMahon figure before the line ends.
