We already got Billy Graham. But I’ll take a bald referee from SS 99 though. Looks like you hit 9 twice instead of 8 It was Summerslam 99.

They could easily do him in commentary attire in the Legends line and wrestling attire in the CC line. Releasing him in the CC line first would be wise, since you could pair him with a non-anchor talent (Bob Orton, Hillbilly Jim, Tito Santana, Bruno Sammartino).

Am I the only one that wanted this specific Ali? Consider yourself blessed. It's definitely the weak link of the set for me but it's cool to see moments like this represented in figure form. I just hope this isn't a one off like it's currently being treated I’m sure it’ll just depend on how well it sells and what other names they have available.

They all look great. I hope we can get Macho in a WWF attire from '94 at some point. As cool as the WCW looks are, I’m only collecting guys that would have fit in with the original line (or come close timeline wise within a couple of years).

I wish we could have gotten the pink hat and a pair of shades. I think I might have preferred that to the shirt. Would a Bluetista hat and Ichiban Hogan sunglasses work in a pinch? Bluetista hat is the right type, but wrong colour.

If they were to do a second set, I'd love to see Bob Backlund/Antonio Inoki or Tatsumi Fujinami and Dusty Rhodes/Andre the Giant (redo of that Amazon exclusive with a cloth vest and new heads).

Maybe the Bossman is part of that set? Is he not series 4 with Austin,DDP, Hennig and HBK BAF? I guess so, but he is a straight re-release (with updated parts). The amount of re-releases they've been doing lately is crazy high.

So I’ve gotta buy a bunch of figures I likely already have just to build Vincent? That sucks… Steve was specifically trying to say that you wouldn't have to do that to build Vincent, because you could piece it together from other pieces you may already have. At least that was how I understood it. Meaning you could use the Rumble BAF pieces if you hadn't already used them to build Virgil...Which isn't really helpful, since I think most people who want a Vincent also wanted a Virgil.

So I've been trying to think who we are going to get for the best of set. From the WCW side my thoughts could be either Syxx, Bret (with corrected pink) or maybe a Lex Lugar? From WWF there is obviously alot more signed talent which could work so really could be anyone. Maybe a Kurt Angle? Or a Kane. Will be interesting to see if we get all straight rerrleased or if they chuck on a repaint Maybe the Bossman is part of that set?

I wonder why they painted his legs? Now his trunks look like bikers. Should have left it the way it was on the prototype. Probably didn’t want the trunks to look so much like Speedos or underwear riding up his thighs. Yeah but that’s how all BCA trunks were. It only looked speedo-ish on the Ahmed body because of how thick the thighs were (which actually worked for Ahmed, but not so much for Shamrock or Austin).

WCW Jake, SST, and Faarooq. Honorable mentions to Shamrock and D'Lo, although one of his 1999 singlet designs would have been better than one from 2000.
The worst was the first Jake (totally wrong shade of green and wrong boots), as well as Andre, Hogan, and Big Bubba, which were all pointless/redundant.
