I would definitely consider buying a few from CS27 (namely Crush, Slaughter and Blackman) if the figures were of a decent quality in stores.
I would not take the risk of ordering any of them online for fear of receiving ones like these.
Thanks for posting the MOC pics.

Blackman's BCA is 10x better than that thing, jeez.

At least Blackman's head doesn't look huge on his body like I thought it would. I'll get him & Crush for sure. Will probably pick up Barbarian & Warlord if I see them.

It looks like they left all of the detail on Crush for once. I'll be picking that one up for sure.

Pretty lame set. Goldberg looks better than I thought.

Goldberg looks horrible, imo. I really want Crush & Blackman. Might pick up Warlord.

Worst set ever obviously. It's DELIBERATE when the last million different "CW" figures were released with huge HW/SHW/Tall parts then just when you think Jakks MUST have thrown out all the CW parts they decide to use them all for the first time in ages...on CRUSH!!! The arms are HUGE though so it won't even look acceptable on it's own. It's sickening to see how Jakks can take such a massively anticipated figure that we've been waiting literally YEARS for and make it SOOO BAD that it's not even worthy of being displayed. Jakks have done that with almost all their big signings this year, very stupid business sense, figures like Warlord, Barbarian, Crush, Bossman etc could have easily sold by the truck load but when they are so terrible that they are just the name on a packet with a random figure inside then it's hardly surprising the whole market has ground to a halt.
The QC is so bad now because Jakks don't want to lose the money on chucking away/recycling reject figures so they package up the rejects and sell them full price to their customers. This is why MOCers whining about ripped packaging seems so pointless now - Jakks deliberately sell not only ripped packaging but also at least 50% of the actual figures have something so wrong with them that they wouldn't have made it out of the factory a couple of years ago. FFS when there's stuff like bits of newspaper stuck on them and big paint splodges I find it hard to believe that Jakks are even following the CE standards now, shameful bunch of scummy bstards, I actually HATE them.

Well those suck. The only really good one is Blackman. He's pretty much perfect. Crush is a huge disappointment.

Doink's jacket is packaged separately because...? I think it's to convince us that it's a separate accessory. Really a shame that it's rubber and not cloth like Slaughters jacket.

ffs, Steve Blackman SHOULD come out with steel pipe thing or so (Not drain pipe). What a cheap set, IMO
