Look, I know these are toys and not everything can be perfect.....
But WHY, after 10 years of getting Triple H figures CORRECT by having his right hand taped, are they now getting it BACKWARD and taping up his LEFT hand?
His BNB figure and the proto for his upcoming DA13 figure BOTH have a bare right hand, and taped left hand?
I mean, there are certain things JAKKS gets wrong, they have always gotten wrong and ALWAYS WILL GET WRONG....but to get something RIGHT for 10 years and THEN start to mess it up......it's really beyond me.
And related to Triple H's BNB figure, how in 2007 they can still release a figure WITHOUT pads is really just shocking.

And its not like BNB has been around for years and people have a ton of spare pads like RA and DA. If somebody wants to put pads on there BNB Triple H, they have to buy doubles of either Batista or Lashley, and that's an extra $7.99+TAX just for pads.

As CS fan I only wanted Taker and HHH from the set and with HHH having no knee pads I had to buy a stupid Batista to get the pads. That´s why they´re doing it. That´s the same reason why they put knee pads on CS16 Barbarian (for what???) and leaving Sid without. You want knee pads on Sid? Then buy another Barbarian!
Of course they´ll never admit but it´s quite obvious...

I dunno...JAKKS never ceases to amaze me. It's so stupid how JAKKS can't get little details like this right. I hate JAKKS. I hope a new toy company takes over for JAKKS because JAKKS sucks.

The absence of knee pads was intentional. It gets people to buy at least one figure twice in the series to get an extra set of knee pads. Jakks is smart and sneaky like that.

I hope a new toy company takes over for JAKKS because JAKKS sucks. that is why i collect TNA figs my friend, they do not re-use parts even 1/10 as much as Jakks does, unless it is the same person which makes sense. Most figures are new molds and we have different head scans all the time. Yes the figures are slow to come out but the detail and accuracy and scale are way superior and i for one would rather collect these that cost me less money for a better line

His tights would say "H elpirT" on them then.....I can't remember Shawn Michaels figures with KBH on them. 99% of the times, the MOC figure is EXACTLY the same as the proto.....unless they change it to make it WORSE....they never change the protos to fix a FLAW or make it better, only to take away detail or switch to a different torso that makes Edge the size of Batista.

Its a action figure buddy!!! Worse things out there in the world then the tape of an action figure being on the wrong hand.

Yeah, there are worse things in the world, however this isn't wrestlingfigs "worse things in the world" board...its the "Jakks WWE figures" board....so clearly the severity of all problems discussed here are going to be in context. Nobody is claiming that wrist tape painted on the wrong hand is worse than War or World Hunger.....but strictly in the context of the world of "action figures" ass backwards details on figures that are too high priced IS A PROBLEM.

The answer is simple... JAKKS are imbeciles... They put Rocky 1 boots on a Rocky 4 figure - I think that says it all...

Because when they release it like this first (Just like DA1)...They know you'll buy it and then buy him again when it's corrected (DA5). If DA1 or BnB 1 was correct at first why would you buy another later?

For some reason, Jakks created a brand new left hand with tape mold for the DA/ BNB line. I have absolutely no clue why, considering the only guy who even tapes his left hand is Carlito.

"OMG!!!!!!!! Why Jakks??!?!?! Why (sniff) Why did you not put pads on Sid? ? Why did you not put pads on HHH?!?!?!?!? Why did you put HHH' right taped hand on his left hand!!??!?!?! Why is their a dot on my fig!?!?!?!!? I hate you jakks!!! I hate you Jakks, even though I have thousands of your figures!! You suck Jakks!!!" God how pathetic are you people, quit bitching about jakks and solve your damn problem yourself. It's not so hard to take off a knee pad from one of your 100 or even 1000's of figs and put it on another fig. If you're to damn intellectually- disabled then find a tutoril. Unless you don't open them who cares!
