4 Aisles? Wow. Was this around the "Attitude Era"? 2004-5, soon as you walked in to your right bam right there. Around the heydays of the Jakks Classic Superstars line. Distribution for anything Jakks in Australia was also tremendous, plenty of stores carried the CS line and also some grocery shops here stocked the RA line. I would also say wrestling was still popular around this time period but that's around the time I stopped watching WWE completely. I feel Jakks had the best distribution when it came to product, price and the amount of names it put out at retail.

Just quoting this to say those were the good old days. I remember a whole aisle at Toys R Us of classic superstars and more. Just an aisle? Try 4 aisles of wrestlers at KB toys. Honestly, maybe it was the one in my local area, but if you wanted wrestling figures KB toys was the place to go IMHO. But sadly, they are both gone. Adapt or parish, and neither would adapt. 4 Aisles? Wow. Was this around the "Attitude Era"?

I think the yelling sculpt is terrible and looks like an old man Bret. I personally think the snarling scan is the best out of the three and thatβs not saying much. The same goes for the RVD ultimate. The screaming scan looks like an old man Van Dam. All around sculpt with the glasses on or off this is my favorite or the three. The eyes could be less stoned. Followed by this one which I feel is the best with the glasses on hiding the stoned eyes. The snarling scan has the least stoned eyes of the three, but that snarl looks brutal. Those headscans look like something from the old BCA days. How did Mattel manage to pass this before release. π€

Perfect candidate for the MNW's line if signed. π

Great to see "Double J" Jeff Jarrett which I will get since Mattel couldn't get it done. π

Can we not get Pepper with the boss man please? Need dog. Need cooked dog. I would actually like Al Snow but then again that's why this line is failing. If you don't have enough names from that era why create that line?

That NWO Curt Henning again looks to be using the usually parts that make him look too thin. π

Well we got some answers on the Q&A regarding the earlier versions of the Steiner's but that doesn't answer why Mattel have not included at least a late 90's Scott Steiner with either the biker shorts or singlet top into the MNW's line. I've been holding off on buying Scott Steiner until any late 90's looks get made.

Hmmm...Another Kane with boot laces when Mattel have the laceless boot mold available. π€

The Neidhardt looks ATROCIOUS in the High Energy soft goods. I get they want to make it a dual figure, but I really think this is a flop. True, but the look hasn't been released yet. The only issue moving forward is you won't be able to complete it without Owen Hart which I still can't see WWE or Mattel ever getting the rights to make him.

I'm glad that Mattel has correct the skintone for this NOD release of Farooq. I will definitely be picking him up since the previous release was bad with the darker skintone.

I'm disappointed that no new Chyna's, and Scott Steiner's were shown which is disappointing since Mattel have the license to their likeness for how much longer?
The headbangers, and debut WWF Dudley Boyz I'm excited about.

Target Exclusive! Preorder starting this Friday. Looks great. I would've preferred a gear from a year or two before this. This attire is more of an early 2009 look. But great job. New torso mold and the headscans and posed hands look great. Looks great for Undertakers later career look and I might get it. The only issue I see is no laceless boots when Mattel made the mold for his Ultimate 11 release. π

i donβt understand the hate for the hogan arms on kane. dude is an absolute unit. He was huge up until like 2002/2003 and then his arms slimmed down after that. His upcoming 2001 figure has the normal jacked arms but he could have used the Hogan arms there. This is all very confusing to me. Kane's torso in 2001 was huge which his figures from that era never captures.

That Undertaker is bad and the photoshopped image on that box looks weird. π

I personally want Scott Steiner with the biker shorts or singlet top to go along with Rick Steiner from the Monday Night Wars. I'm holding off on buying Scott Steiner until Mattel do the right thing and release that look. π

I have the Jakks CS version MOC but would be happy if Mattel got the rights to make him. Let's hope Buff Bagwell gets made in the near future.
