Great to see Blackjack back into the lineup! The lineups seem pretty cool... the only one that sounds like a loser is that Danny Davis ref person (I've never heard of him). And yeah, the LJN's STILL suck. If they were doing LJNs of actual classic superstars, then maybe I wouldn't have minded them... but modern guys in a CS lineup totally sucks! God bless. hey man i guess danny was before your time..plenty of great clips of his angle on you tube but heres a recap that might help in 1985 in the boston garden randy savage used a object he pulled from his tights to knock tito santana cold and win the IC title.. much contravery spread about how the reff should have seen savage dip into his tights but president jack tunney let it slide... the reff was danny davis...for the next year davis would make half ass calls in his matches so much so that almost every weekend vince mcmahon would say on tv that davis is doing a horrible job inwhich jessie the body would defend davis... the match on superstars of wrestling in late 86 where steamboat almost beat macho davis again stuck his nose in..the assigned reff was knocked out earlier in the match and was still groggy when steamboat finally had savage beat to a pulp...the reff was going to count 3 but as his hand came down davis stopped the count and made like he was trying to help the reff up... that moment caused savage to use the ring bell on steamboats throat as he was clearly worried the dragon might defeat him and this was there launching pad for there eipic match at mania 3. then when mr wonderful turned heel against hulk hogan the assigned reff for there big title cage match was joey marella... the match ended with the legendary "who hit the floor first" after climbing over the cage...morella raised hogans hand but danny davis showed up and raised wonderfuls hand... it was decided that hogan would keep the belt and his war would rage on with mr wonderful... finally in early 1987 danny davis' heel turn and i think the first reff to ever actully turn heel was fully realised when the hart foundation cheated to win the wwf tag team belts from the bulldogs...dynamite was knocked out i think and davis watched on gleefully as the hart foundation double teamed davey boy..then after the heart attack finisher davis counted a fast 3 and single handedly awarded the foundation the belts... he was later suspended from reffing for his life time plus ten years( lol ) and then became a member of the hart foundation managed by jimmy hart.... his last big claim to fame in the angle was a 6 man tag team match where he and the hart foundation went against tito santanna and the bulldogs from wrestlemania 3:) check you tube you might find enough there to give ya more interesting info on him... actully now that i look back danny wasnt memorable by all but geez he had his hands in some pretty big storylines between 85,86 and 87...lol hope this helps peace man

I only really care about Sherri but I don't know if I will get it. Is she still getting that awesome fig with HBK because I will most likely get that?

They need to take out JYD, Iron Sheik, Bret Hart and Vader and put back in Christian, APA & Arnold Skaaland . Dont get me wrong i love JYD and The Hitman and would love Sheik in long shorts but, would rather have some new faces.

I have 2 Iron Sheik Classics signed... What will this look like.. a repaint? If so take it out. I'm psyched about the rest.
I already have a Sgt. Slaughter with a Jacket. Do we need another one? I hope Barbarian and Warlord don't look like the other ones I got. I'm happy Steve Blackman is back.
This is a cool set. Overall nice... but I hope to get APA and Christian somehow... and I'm still dreaming of a Net Exclusive Marlena.

I agree with several of your points. - I don't see why we need another Iron Shiek when his CS 5 figure warmed the shelves for a LOOOOOONG time. - Same with Sgt. Slaughter, why do we need another one? Here are two spots that could have easily been given to new faces.

I wish black jack Mulligan has stayed gone. Not for a bad reason. All that tells me (to some extent) is that a blackjacks 2-Pack was not the reason he was taken out.
Happy bout blackman.
No APA. Big surprise. Bradshaw's gone. From the sound of things he ain't coming back for a while if ever. I'm pissed. They know the people under standard contract SHOULD have been made first above EVERYONE else. Remember CS14,15,16,17,18 Goldust? Now he's back. And who do they make half a dozen figures of right out the gate? Yeah I figured they learned from that. Standard WWE guys arre the only ones who can more or less up and leave/Quit/Contract Expire/Get fired on a whim. Leaving them with months of planning down the crapper and us without a figure.
Christian....We'll we're still supposed to have 2 More classic WM shopzone sets. I've been saying all along one of them would be E&C from 16 or 17.I've heard more people want this figure then most. Myself included. Can't imagine of all people he'll NOT get put into a 2-Pack. Let's pray.

more then likely I'll be buying most of those sets, they're pretty solid and it's the last of CS so I may as well go all out.

Those sets all look pretty good now to me. I'm a tiny bit annoyed about APA not being there (don't tell anyone I said that though LOL) I had so many chances to buy the AD set but thought I may aswell wait seeing as I get full CS sets anyway, so now I have to pay loads for the ADs (I only actually need Simmons head, I have the rest of the set but I'll probly have to buy them both again.
