Thst Hardy looks cool, but I really wish they make that Somoa Joe in RI styles.

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. I quoted you about Cornette really, my response was just in general to everyone that was complaining. I'm not arguing that Piper and Blanchard aren't "legends", just that Joe, AJ, and especially Hardy all are. Jeff Hardy actually main evented in two companies.. I just don't get the knock with people saying they "aren't legends"...

I just don't get the knock with people saying they "aren't legends"... OK. I think the problem is that Jeff is the most accomplished of the three and many old-schoolers just don't take him seriously (the guy's fine by me). I don't think Joe and AJ are legends yet, but I'm happy to get that Joe fig. You have to remember, last year there was debate about whether Cena and Triple H belonged in the classics line. They're both way more accomplished in mainstream wrestling than Joe and AJ. The bottom line for me, though, is that I'd take 10 lineups like this to get the 30 or so figures I consider real legends.

Very very awesome set.
Only one I have no interest in is Andre. The rest are for sure to be bought. Cornette!

Can't wait to pick up Cornette & Hardy. Maybe Taylor too.
Very surprised they're making a ROH / pre-TNA Samoa Joe.

It's a pretty nice set. AJ, Joe and Andre's heads look too big though. Personally I'm not interested in any of them. My main interest is superstars from the Monday Night Wars era (WCW and WWF, 1995-2001). never liked cornette or taylor, and I'm happy with my old RA Jeff. Good to see the RA style continuing so we can build on our existing collections

I thought this was called Legends of the ring figures..Styles and Samoa Slob hardly legends. And that andre looks like crap..However i do like the first ever Terry Taylor figure..But seeing its jakks and they halfass everything i bet it does not come with a robe.

Wow, this series is 10x's better than the first!
I may actually buy the entire set.
That cornette is spot on, and yes Terry Taylor!
I'm guessing that andre looks bigger in person, than in that picture.

I'm guessing that andre looks bigger in person, than in that picture. the proto images aren't scaled to each other. they just cropped the edges of the images so they all have around the same amount of space around them. the andre has the RA Big Show body so will be around that size.

i think it wold be a cool variant for Hardy to have regular paint and paint that glows in the dark. Just my two cents.

Pulled the trigger on the Rooster and Corny tonight!
Hopefully Taylor will get his familiar red and silver ring jacket, and Cornette will get a better racket than the old BCA Ringside Collection racket!!

I'm only excited about Taylor and Cornette.... The lack of Steiner is disappointing
