I think they're great. The attitude era didn't have much colour and wasn't gimmicky, so Mattel didn't have much to play with.

I've been really looking forward to this reveal.
And I hate to be negative but The Rock? That's really disappointing.
I'm a big fan of this line (as an original hasbro collector), and will probably buy all of this line when they get to the UK, but I'm very disappointed.
I saw Kane yesterday and thought it was great, and was really excited for today's reveal.
Austin is good, I could see people would've liked the best, maybe even tshirt & shorts, but still a good one.
But Rock...I have been looking forward to his figure the most, but just seems a very bad choice of model & action. Why not use the same one Austin has? So he could do a Rock Bottom and Peoples Elbow?
Instead he's got a press slam? Anyone ever seen him do one of those?
Moan over.

It would have been cool to see Austin in shorts/vest to spice the fig up a bit since the all black attire is a bit bland, but I'm cool with how this ring ready version came out. The rock is interesting. I think he looks okayyyy, and hopefully his mechanism is a single arm choke slam type mechanism for the Rock bottom. |

My only criticism of these figs is the lack of Kane's black belt.
While the clothesline arm would have been ideal for Rock, I don't think the gorilla press slam is that bad. Especially as the picture looks like it indicates it's a one arm motion here (which is why one is raised).

They could probably use Austin's body for AJ with a wind-back forearm punch action(maybe different legs with kickpads).

Wow, those look even better than I could have hoped for. Not crazy about Austin's face and the press slam seems like an odd choice for The Rock. But these are all definite buys for me.

I think they look great kane could've used some more details belt and down the pants design but I do hope that the final release might have it in the end it's still to early to judge now bring on mankind triple h and sting it would be cool if they did variants of them in different attires as chase figs to make the series more interesting

The fact that I can now deliver Stone Cold Stunners to the likes of my Nailz, Berzerker, Yokozuna, Gonzalez, Papa Shango, Doink and Repo Man delights me to no end.  |

Anybody know what those bits on Rock's biceps are? Kind of like the arm does something other than just the press slam.
