Man, I wish they had released Mr Anderson dressed as Sting and Jesse Neal. Unfortunately, I don't think they are going to release that Douglas Williams either.

They always say that the RI series 1 didn't sell well, but Walgreens debuted the series with buy 2 get 1 free..Every store in the Indianapolis area was sold out within a week of them hitting shelves. Granted I can't speak for everywhere, but to me that sounds like there is some demand. Yep, ditto for the Walgreens around here. Same here. Its a shame that Jakks went away from the RA figures. They could have garnered A LOT more business if they would have continued to make these as well. Instead they bailed (even though the fans/collectors voted nearly 75% to stay) and now they're barely pumping out any figures and what they do is constant repaints of Jeff Hardy, Sting and Hulk Hogan.

I honestly don't remember this vote, but I have heard about it a lot. It's understandable that people with a ton of RA figures would want more in that scale, but just because there was a vote HERE on this board, doesn't mean that everybody EVERYWHERE is almost 75% for RA figures. I don't know if I cared which way they went back then, but if they could only make one line due to budget, then I am very glad they went with DI instead of RI. Sure, people are still complaining 3 years later, but I am happier with the DI figs than the few RI/RA TNA figs I have (though I do have over 1000 RA WWE figs, so I'm certainly not anti-RA, I just like the Deluxe figures better.)

It wasnt on this board. It was on Jeremy.com/Jakks website. Dont get me wrong, Im not saying "Dont make DA figures", Im just saying that if they would have continued making RA figures, even half assed like they were for the last 2-3 years, Their "wrestling program" would be in A LOT better shape now then it is.

Too bad the Jeff Jarett isn't released - such an amazing figure. And so is Joe. The DIs are nice looking too but I just prefer RIs over DIs. Would've loved to ge that DI Anderson tho, really cool fig.

yes, I remember those. I wish we got them. I was really all in for those 3 figures. I hate they cancelled RI they should put these as legends in the Deluxe series. AJ, then Joe, then jarrett & maybe even the cornette. I don't see Steiner being released at all although I loved that proto.
