Looks cool.. but I don't really need it. You know what's even cooler - your picture of Mickie James! LOL Is this an RA or DA? Looks more DA than RA, but it's hard to tell. Agreed about the pic of Ms. James. The figure is DA which is why I'm not interested in it. I'm waiting on an exclusive I want to spend money on. Come on Jakks, one good exclusive before you make the switch. Awesome head scan. I also like th attire and the fact that it will come with the belts. Same scan as we've seen on a handful of HBK's, they could have at least given an exclusive figure a scan that is different. |

I'll get it because the classic superstars one is expensive and this will take place for it. Also this might be the only DA I'll buy

I'm on the fence with this figures. I like certain things and dislike other things.
I'd prefer a new scan, maybe with messed up hair or something, but this one is fine and does suit the era.
The attire bothers me a little. It's actually not as accurate as the Classic Superstars #1 figure. Too many hearts and the shapes of them are a bit inaccurate, the CS1 Michaels has more accurate hearts. Also, there are details missing in the hearts. CS1 has the little mirrored squares in the silver part of the hearts which I see is missing in this figure. Also, the logo on his butt is missing the gold portions and is all silver which isn't accurate ... again the CS1 HBK does include the gold portions.
Another thing is the entrance attire just looks a bit cheaped out on. It looks incomplete and IDK why it's cloth, they should have made it the same material as other CS HBK figures w/ entrance attires like the DX pack or the MSJ.
I'm a huge HBK mark so I will get this figure, but there's a few glaring mistakes that I'm wondering why they exist.

I wish they made this in RA style. Don't do DA. Oh well. Real rip if they don't paint the belts.

Looks cool.. but I don't really need it. There are action figures that you actually NEED? I don't collect figures, nor do I own any, but I am very tempted to get this. Huge HBK fan. |

Well.... I was at my friends house and asked me if I saw these protos yet. He said Its an Exclusive Shawn WMXII remake, with Entrance gear, and every belt he's ever worn. And I proceded to mark out like a little kid. I was expecting a new scan, a remake of epic proportions just like they did to the WM recall with Austin, but most importantly, I was expecting RA form. I was gonna hang it on my wall MOC and cherish it. Well typical Jakks crushed my dreams with a lanky unproportional DA figure. I told my friend before he showed me the proto that Michaels has been screwed out of good Classic figures, and still is. This, in Jakks' opinion, is the definitive Shawn Michaels figure. It should be for the fans too. What Jakks' needs, needs to realize is that RA is the superior line and commemorative figures like this needs to be in RA form. I stopped collecting figs over a year ago, and I care that they  ed this up. I cant imagine how pissed actual collectors are. Ill only buy it for the entrance gear probably, then buy the CS1. |

Does anyone know if the titles will be painted? The Classic Tag Team Championships were painted in the protos, but not the IC or Winge Eagle World, so it's a 50/50 chance if were that lucky. -BEN The Classic Tag Team Championships in the proto aren't even Jakks mold!  See? It's a replica belt! Ringside cheaped out on their images! Anyways, I soooooo want this. |

i dont know why people are complaining about it being DA, He has the same figure in RA form. If you want it in RA form spend the 35-70 dollars and get it.

The head scan looks a little dodgey, but everything else is perfect. Definitely getting it, if i can.
