I would jag all over myself if the finished Taylor came with his robe he wore most of his career, then sold to Bobby Roode for $100.

It's about time we got some insight on to how this line is going to work. Obviously the protos are photoshopped, so they look more awkward than they will in the final product.
I like the idea of current TNA talent in their "debut" or early attires. I hope Jakks keeps it to 6 per set too. This set alot more than series 1 gives me confidence that Jakks is going to "bring it" with the Legends line. Now hopefully the trend of no accessories & cheaped out details WON'T continue.
Terry Taylor: Awesome surprise #1. He looks perfect, very happy we're getting this.
Jim Cornette: Awesome surprise #2. Amazing. For YEARS he was one of the most requested Classic Superstars, it's so great that we finally get a proper RA Jim Cornette. I hope he comes with a tennis racquet
Andre the Giant: I honestly was shocked to see this. I didn't think Jakks would still be able to make guys who are so heavily "wwe" I'm glad though because they always did a great job with Andre. I love the look, this will be awesome
Jeff Hardy: Very cool looking. I love the scan, and I really hope Jakks isn't going to cheap out on the details.
Samoa Joe: I never liked Joe, still don't. The figure is great though, definitley captures his ROH look. Which is just awesome
AJ Styles: Love it, ROH AJ. Scan looks good. Simple but effective.

^^^^^Didn't AJ wear that attire in his early TNA days too?

I'd gladly bet anyone here $100 that the actual product of AJ and Joe doesn't have tall kickers.

This is a very random series. I will get 'Dre and maybe Jeff. I don't need a 7 foot Cornette.

Unreal! This is the RA Samoa Joe and AJ that we've always dreamed of.

I was just thinking the other day what a cool idea it would be to have Taylor in this series. It makes perfect sense, he's been an agent for TNA forever. And then, BBBBBBBAMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, a proto pic. Sick about Scottie though.

Look, if it takes three non-legends in the line, for marketability purposes, to get three actual legends, then you won't hear me complain. Cornette does need his racket... but why are you people fussing about AJ, Joe, and Jeff Hardy in the TNA line? All three of them have been World Champion more times than Roddy Piper, Tully Blanchard, Zeus, Bastion Booger, and the Shockmaster put together (which is still 0, by the way), and all of them had figures in the CS line. Well, it's odd that you quoted me for this when I specifically said I wasn't complaining, but it's bizarre to lump Roddy Piper and Tully Blanchard in with Zeus, Bastion Booger, and the Shockmaster. That strains credibility. No matter how many world titles Joe, Jeff Hardy, or AJ have had, they don't come close to Piper's status as a wrestling legend. For those that were complaining, I think a lot of people don't think of this as a TNA legends line, but a continuation of the old classics line, in which case having three TNA guys is a bit much. I understand Jakks reasoning in this case, so it doesn't bother me.

Wow! Cornette now I can put him with my vader, I hope somewhere down the line we get a red rooster, Andre is great that's the type of scan I wanted for him in the first place. Hardy is amazing, my gf is happy to see it and already put it down for an Xmas gift from me lol aj styles is good I hope they give him a vest at least Joe is exactly what I wanted except I wanted him in black and blue, something off with that scan and I can't put my finger on it
all in all solid set and I will be getting them all

It's just too bad Jakks hasn't figured out that they need to put the short lower legs on managers now...Cornette is going to be a giant.
Ah well, it's better than no Cornette at all.

Pretty average to be honest I know people seem to think this is a great series but I am very dissapointed. Terrys scan is terrible I would love Cornette but I have a feeling he will be about 7 feet tall.

That Jeff looks good, but when they can't even bother to put facepaint on the proto's face, you just know it's not gonna get the paint on the actual figure. Sorry.
Will get Cornette, though. Always been a fan of his.
