Mate, that's incredible. The hunt paid off big time, so happy you got them after all that time. These are awesome, I'd have loved to seen this set get released. Was there ever the grey version prototype (similar to the one in the actual Classic set) or was that what was released in Deluxe Series 3 do you think, or do you think they altered it after they scrapped this set? Either way, congratulations pal. You own a wonderful piece of a rare Classic gem! Thanks mate! Even this purchase was a thriller, when i saw the add on a chinese website they were already sold, so an American friend reached a chinese friend who knew the seller... It was a crazy run. This set was planned very late in the Jakks run. So i do believe the third member would be CSDA series 3. Which explains why these two were always around as a 2 pack.

So the first time i saw this was 10 years ago on eBay. They were in India at the time. I didnt go for them and i lost their track for years. About 3 years ago i found out a Chinese collector had them. After this 10 year hunt, they were put up for sale and i finally got them. That felt good.

What is the story behind why it was never released? Series 24 was the last one. Jakks were already not giving a crap about the line. So 2 of the 6 figures planned were cut. This was one of them. The other was Jericho. Which has also been seen in the wild.

Any chance you're willing to share how much it set you back? How much $ did getting it graded add?
Including internacional shipping costs and a custom made case to include the COA, no more than 120 euros.

Incredible piece mate, congratulations. That’s my favourite of the 3 DA Warriors and it’s an amazing figure. Getting it graded with the letter too is so cool, enjoy it man, there may not be another in the world!! Thanks mate!

As a DA enthusiast this is as big as it can get. Got it a few months ago and finally arrived from graders.

They beat a WWE national TV show on ratings every single week. That's a game changer. At least for the last 20 years.

I’ve never heard of this ... surely there are pics available ? Heel fig guy has pics on his Instagram account. However his pic has only 2. There is one missing.
