Wow my wife spent a lot of money to buy me that set a few years ago for my birthday. I feel bad that I even requested it since Jakks has re-released that Andre twice (Best of & the upcoming "Machine" figure) now and that they are suddenly available domestically.

That's the Hogan scan from the CS8 figure, right?

That's the Hogan scan from the CS8 figure, right? I believe it is the same scan, without the headband. The combover looks a little different than the one on Jakks Loose Database, but it's probably just the paint job or weird camera angles. |

Very pissed. Jacks have ripped us British off claiming 3 years ago that it is a UK exclusive. In a way they have ripped Americans off to by making people in the UK buy them and selling them to them for a heavy price for the past few years.

LOL I love seeing American collectors reactions to this set, it is the ONLY set that wasn't originally available in US stores and you all act like it's gold dust. Bare in mind that I've bought over 1000 WWE figures from the US and had them sent over and it doesn't really seem that crazy an idea that American collectors would buy that one set off UK ebay does it? Anyway, apparantly it doesn't matter now as you got it anyway. The Argos leftovers must've made their way through Aus, Canada (I think) and now are in "Big Lots".
It is a superb set IMO, possibly the biggest match in WWF/E history and simple yet near perfect versions of both wrestlers. I still have a few spares actually, I got a set loose (plus the Best Of British loose, for £1.50 per figure today (actually that's a lie cos I left Regal in the shop, I got the flag though)

I just wish I had a Big Lots in town. I guess I can make an excuse to visit my family.
