I just can't get excited about prototype pictures from Jakks. We'll see how good they are once MOC pictures are posted.

Love these figs. I'll end up getting them all eventually. People will always find things to bitch about, especially when it involves TNA.

Sooooooooo excited about Velvet Sky, its an amazing proto. It looks EXACTLY like her. If it wasn't for the ab/knee joints I would think I was looking at a picture. I just hope they don't mess up the facepaint, good scans go bad with paint sometimes. Also relieved about deluxe Knockouts.
I hope Angelina is next and we get a baby blue Madison in this same outfit.

I really wish Jakks would put this much effort in the final product :\ its sad that most of these will lose detail upon release I wish theyd actually take an interest in this line ...

That Velvet Sky is incredible. Some of the others look good too, but I hate that goofy face for Lethal. I don't buy figures with goofy faces. BLAH!

all these figure pics the last few days have me going crazy scrambling for money to pre-order them, i'm going to be getting 3 Velvets, 1 to open, 1 MOC to get signed, and 1 for my girlfriend who freaked out when she saw the figure, all I can say is I can't wait for an Angelina Love figure and that i sincerely hope the Velvet remains the same when it releases

What the ? at 4LK if some of the figures suck they suck. I'll give ONE thing to Jakks their detail have been pretty good I was expecting for TNA figures everyone to have solid colors. But the detail is okay and since they already have Jeff Hardy parts I'm trying not to get my hopes up that it will be his best figure. Since this is Jakks.

While I will not and do not collect DA style figures, they look AWESOME for what they are.
My favorite in this set is Jay Lethal, if he came with a robe, I would be tempted to get him.
I sure hope we get all of these in RA style one day. Then and only then, will I collect the TNA line.

What the ? at 4LK if some of the figures suck they suck. I realize this, but it seems like around here anything that ever involves TNA immediately gets bashed. Even if most of the figs in a set are good, people will ignore those and only talk about how much the other ones suck. People already come in with a negative perception about them, and if they are good, they just come in and argue with people that Mattel is better. Who ing cares? They're wrestling figures. If you don't like them, don't buy them. You (not you in particular) are getting literally nothing accomplished by coming in this thread and bitching.

Looks like a pretty good series. Not a big fan of those painted sleeves with sleeveless rubber coats though. But overall, a very good line-up.

I'll find a way to B**** about it. i dont mind Sting in a jacket, that would be great, but why cant they give him a real jacket that you can take off, now that would have been awesome. and also they used a undertaker ruthless jacket, which is also to short. Glad the knockouts are in deluxe instead of ruthless These figures are cheaper than the RAs were, so you have to expect less quality. Thats just the way it is

Who'd have thought Jakks best TNA figure would be a Knockout!
Velvet is pure awesome.

I have to say for Jakks these aren't that bad. They've still got the AWFUL DA bodies (apart from Velvet) but the scans are pretty good. Lethal's scan would have been perfect for his 'Black Machismo' gimmick. Velvet does look f'n amazing and as much as I don't want to encourage Jakks I think I'll pick her up as I love The Beautiful People. I just always worry that Jakks will cheap out in the end and we'll be disappointed when we see MOC images. Hope I'm proved wrong What do you mean "would have been perfect for his Black Machismo" gimmick? It IS his Black Machismo gimmick... Yes you're quite right. For some reason I thought Jay Lethal still had on the same tights. Shows how much I care about him lol To be fair though he has impressed recently

Good to see more TNA Images! Ill only judge so far on what I see of the protos but will make my final decisions on whether to purchase them or not by the MOC Pics.
Shark Boy - Really like this fig - looks great! Velvet Sky - Wow! she stands out in the whole set - looks stunning! Matt Morgan - Loving the attire and scan - looks great aswell! Jay Lethal - Abit outdated but still looks good! Sting - Looks good but I prefer the look of his DI 1. Kevin Nash - Looks ok I prefer his CTL one with Steiner.
All in all looks like a solid set so far.
