*EDIT* For Reference, there is no CS logo on the box. * Now sure this pack has taken a lot of beating from people on here but you shall be surprised. This big show is in fact amazing. The scan looks much better in person and photos cannot do it justice. The scan even looks a bit angry when you look closer at it. It was the type of scan I wanted jakks to do of show (neutral kind of one) and whilst I admit, at first I thought it looked really awkward, it looked much better in person when I saw in at the shops today. Now sure, you can all see it has a new scan for show as well as the jacket for andre plus a ring bell and chair, but theres a few things you may not have known about the show which ill show you below. Not sure if im the first to post but heres the pics: MOC:  Loose:  Andre:  Show: Scan:  Now the big plus from this set is the show. The reason why? Well look at the pics, he has many tats added. His arm tats are both coloured but added to this fig are the tats on the back of his neck which says ‘Bess’ and his lower right back leg tat “TKEâ€. As far as I know it’s the first fig to have these two tats.   Overall its in fact a great set for the big show with this really good scan (photos don’t do it justice)) and all the tats it has. For those without this Andre (that’s me as ive only got the UK exclusive) its even better value especially with the jacket. Overall it’s a nice surprise of a set, better than initially expected. So as a result I take back all the insults I gave this pack, its actually decent. It erases my need for any more show’s as its better than all. No RA36 for me. Need any more pics or got any more questions let me know. |

Pretty great stuff, I didn't expect those tattoos. Show's head looks like an egg though. How many scans has he had? Seems like he gets a new one almost every time.

Thanks for the pics. I was one who never criticised this set to begin with. I think its pretty good, but now you further drove home the point. Glad you like it

never realized it said TKE on his leg......frat boy. for those who are unaware, TKE is the biggest fraternity in the US.
if Show's singlet extended over his legs like it should, I'd buy this pack.

excellent pick up mate - crikeyyyyyyyyy lol The Big Show is probably faultless and the andre is pretty neat. Don't know what Undertaker will feel about his brother's best fan getting a big show fig  |

Well, I still hate it I'm afraid. It's definately the best Big Show RA so far but it still has the wrong singlet with no legs. It looks like a great figure though I agree. The reason I hate the set is because of how much I want some more versions of Andre in my collection, all they had to do was change the colour of the trunks to red and I would've loved this set, if they'd done yellow attire with the short haired scan I'd probably like it more than any set ever. But just rereleasing that old figure ruins the whole set, it may aswell just be a Big Show figure on it's own. The jacket on Andre doesn't add to it either cos he never wore one like that to the ring as far as I remember, I know he wore one on the front of that book but considering how many famous variations of Andre Jakks could've done here, a version off the front of some book seems ridiculous. The delay and the obscure jacket just makes me think that they chucked this set together so quick they didn't realise how identical the two figures looked next to each other, so the jacket is probably only there to detract from that.
As you didn't already have the Andre I can see why this set is appealing, I do really like that Andre figure, I already have 2 of them though. Jakks just pissed me off by rereleasing it when a simple change of colour on the trunks could've made everyone happy and expanded the CS line. Is thi actually part of CS? I haven't seen any pictures showing the CS logo on the box. If it has no logo it's a definate pass for me. I haven't bought any of the CS rereleases so far but as a completist I might buy them all to keep MOC one day just to have a complete collection. That all depends on how many more rereleases Jakks do in the next year, too many and I definately won't bother.

I like the set!
How come Oz shops get in the US exclusive figures when they doesn't get the newest worldwide BnB series?
