I did this too actually (found some R3 including Jeff Hardy, DDP, Hogan, Kane, ect...) in my storage. They were also my favorite thing Jakks did except some of them that had the weird back arch to them I hated... They are pretty good scale with Mattel but now after having the Mattels, The R3s arms seem very off (never saw that very well before Mattel though). They are good head choices to use with Mattel customs too.

When I sized them up and went on Wiki for the heights of the people everyone except RVD is in scale even the custom Bradshaw is in scale. But Hogan and Booker both have that horrible arch in their backs. I know I should have more around the garage but those tubs are buried.

I was gonna ask about that Bradshaw, didnt know it was A custom. That arch is absolutely awful but they were great figures with too short of A run. I always loved the finger articulation (was not on all of them though).

Those Kanes were awesome as well as the ABA Undertaker (bottom one). Nice to see some of those pics again. I still have about 50% of the ones I had but I really wish I had the other half that I got rid of.

I brought back Rikishi and Draft Angle, two of my favorite ever figures. Thank you Mattel for allowing the reintegration of R3s.

Jakks really screwed up when they stopped making R3, in my mind they were the most realistic figs Jakks ever made thankfully they can get some new use with Mattels line.

yea i've dug my R3's out aswell for my display. My personal favourites are Billy, Chuck and Booker T in his training pants and vest (so tempted to turn it into a Kofi custom)

I hated R3 figs but some people actually really liked them..
I only had like 3 and sold them already so that was cool.

Glad to see those figures. I like that Kane with the mask only problem is that he's too skinny.

This might sound a little stupid, but whats "R3"? It was A series of figures released by Jakks before they made RA style figures but after and during TTL style figures. They were the first series of figures to be in scale with one another as well I believe. It was A pretty short run of the style of figures but Mattel figures are very much like the R3 figures (much improved though) and are in the same scale as well.

The overuse of the Austin body killed the line's appeal for me.
