The 3 upcoming Samoa Joe figures(LOTR, DI, RI) are all dream-come-true figures for me. And Raven is a thing of beauty.  ING THANK YOU JAKKS |

will be looking to get RI Joe & Jarrett & belts Same here. I hope we get to see the RI2 & LotR2 moc pics before they come out so I can decide which Joe I want. Also, I'll probably get the Raven & swap the head for the TTL one. And then add a jacket & flannel from ralphs and have a pretty awesome (although not 100% accurate) classic Raven. |

I feel your pain, If he's in Deluxe Impact series 5 make him Deluxe,why not just put the Ruthless style in the Legends of the Ring series? because the LOTR series is on hold for now, as Jakks cant afford to license outside talent at the moment. so until the LOTR series is back on, we are getting one legend figure in each DI series. and the legend figures are in RI style because thats what the majority of collectors want. They'd probably be able to afford more names if they put more effort into their current product such as tall kickers,at least one open fist on EVERY figure,certain guys to have smaller headscans and if they fixed the deluxe arms so we can see the whole tattoo if someone has one on their upper arm like Nash or Jeff Hardy, tall kickers is the most important though lol |

When i seen the raven i put my arms out in respect, that thing is a WRESTLING FIGURE GOD. if it comes out like that it will be the greatest thing since sliced bread. The new DI JOE is freaking awesome. Joe now has his own figure molds which is cool that they put the time and effort into him. Aj's fig with the hoodie looks awesome. The kennedy DI is a must, its a perfect figure of him. The kurt angle which looks to be in a 2 pack with kennedy is looking awesome, im gunna try buy that on its own. Angelina is great, they could fix her make up but its still a great fig. And wheres all them guys who suck up mattels ass saying jakks pays no attention to detail??? have a look at raven and the DI joe and then come and tell me that  |

Look how BIG that head is on Joe.........that looks aweful!!!!  I can honestly say, I see nothing at all that is even slightly tempting to buy. I think for the most part, all of these look pretty bad. Daffney is probably the best looking one out of them all, sadly. Dude u've said that about every TNA fig released. Its really not that bad. It is called having an opinion...  ...and yes, it is way too big. |

Based on what? Some poll they had here over a year ago? I wanted a modern Deluxe Raven, but I'm fine with this LOTR being RI if they make a DI Raven (and Rhyno) sometime soon. |

Wow I like what I'm seeing here. Lots of nice stuff to look forward to that's coming out.
DI 5
Raven - Looks amazing although I do wish it would have been a WCW version. I think it will look even better and a bit more classic once a jacket, kneepads and flannel shirt is added.
Rob Terry - Looks ok I guess but he's an easy pass for me.
Angelina Love - I'm a bit torn here. I mean the figure does look great and it looks pretty lifelike. Although the blank stare on her face could have been switched to a smirk or something better.
Mr Anderson - Kind of plain but than again his attire usually is. At least they didn't stick that terrible molded t-shirt on this one.
Samoa Joe - Good stuff! I'm glad to see they fixed him and now he won't be so huge. I also really like the color choice they picked.
Jeff Hardy - I like the pink & black attire. I can't decide which current one I want between this, DI 4, and CTL 3.
CTL 3
Daffney - They did a great job with her and really captured the "psycho" look.
Kurt Angle - I love the attire but he needs a new scan. That screaming one just needs to go far away.
Nice to see that we are getting titles with the figures now.
I'm loving that Black/White AJ Styles. I just hope the hooded vest has a logo on the back.

Any word on the Black and White DI Samoa Joe and the silver DI Jarrett
Are they part of the final Legends Series 2 Line?
Are they in future RI lines?
Are they future Walgreens figures?

No more Legends? Those Jeff Hardys are going to be a Mattitude Following goldmine. Rob Terry, probably the biggest guy in wrestling, looks to be the same size as everyone else. That's why I hate DAs.

I only collect RI's, So I definitely will be getting the Raven and the Samoa Joe. I will get the Rob Terry deluxe fig for the head to make an RI custom. The Hogan fig looks great too bad it's deluxe. The Jeff Jarrett is the same old Jarrett scan on an RI body....not a big fan of Jarrett so I'll probably pass. The best 2 figures are Raven and Terry (just the scan). The Raven is PERFECTION.

I'lll judge these when I see their MOC images. By any chance will Wal-Mart be interested in selling Jakks TNA figures now?

Nice to see Jakks having a strong showing here. The LOTR Raven looks pretty sweet. I kinda hope he ends up coming with a jacket but I doubt it. They used the right parts and the tattoos look great. Of course the scan is amazing, but I've come to expect that from Jakks. Are those new lower legs on Joe??? That's cool they finally decided to do something like that, at least he won't tower over everyone else. I'll never buy a Joe figure anyway. I can't get over how realistic the Anderson/Kennedy scan is. Jakks really succeeds with Jeff Hardy in every way. All 3 of the figures they've show are AWESOME. DI Hogan is a nice surprise, I expected the all black attire. Can people finally stop saying Jakks is cheaping out on details?  Yes, they are still getting parts wrong, but the details are not suffering RVD is a disappointment, althought I love the scan & attire. Maybe they just forgot to paint the hands for this proto? I'm going to stop complaining about the snow boots because they obviously aren't going to do anything about it. Which is ridiculous because the other 3 Deluxe RVD figures all had the tall kicker mold, you'd think they would just break out the old RVD figure parts bin....ugh, I don't get it. I wonder who puts together the rings for these displays... that is a horrible job. I really like the Angle/Anderson pack...I might just pick that up. |

I already have a Raven which in my opinion looks better than this one. It's the jakks WWE version that came with Saturn in a 2pac if I remember correctly.
Outside of collecting all Stings I only collect RI Figs so the only others I will be getting is that Somoa Joe and Jeff Jarrett which I am excited about both. I didn't pick up the other classic Jarrett because I didn't like it but will get this figure.
Why didn't they show LOTR2 Figs here.

I haven't seen any Wal-Mart carrying the TNA Wrestling figures yet, but I have seen them in Toys "R" Us & Target. Plus, I've also seen the first set of TNA Wrestling figures(w/o swiviling biceps) in Family Dollr for about $3.00-$5.00 each. I have to agree w/someone in the chat about the new Samoa Joe head that it is a bit bigger than the first one that I've seen. But we all know that Jakks is still trying to get the head scans right on the figs too as well they need to stop making the wrestler's biceps so huge on the RI's & DI sets. But I like the new TNA Belts w/Angel wearing the Heavyweight title & AJ wearing the X-Division belt. I just hope the the TNA World Belt is 5 plates & not like WWE's huge Big Gold former NWA/WCW's World Heavyweight belt that's only 3 plates & also hope to see the first ever TNA World Tag Team, the Knockout Women's World Title & the TNA Knockout Tag Team Belts that should be out soon too. Also, I think that Jakks needs to come out with a Roxxi Labeaux Vs. Daffney, O.D.B. Vs. Awesome Kong, Taylor Wilde & Sarita(w/TNA Knockout Tag Team Belts), Taylor Wilde & Hamada, Madison Rayne & Layce Von Erich(w/TNA Knockout's World Championship & TNA Knockout's Tag Team Championship belts), as well a TNA Television Belt w/AJ Styles. Plus, I also wonder if Jakks are going to do the team of Generation Me as well & not do a Consequenses Creed(Apollo Creed Rocky wannabe) figure too. That would really suck if they ever come up with him. But I already have my list of which figures of who I want to get & Jakks also needs to do something with those ring ropes for their so-called Large TNA Wrestling Ring too. They need to make them a little bit tighter & like someone else suggested that Jakks needs to make a TNA Offical Scale Westling Ring like WWE has too & make their 6-Sided Ring & the 6-Sides of Steel Cage & ring alot more bigger too. That would make a lot of scense to us collectors & since I already have a WWE Deluxe Jeff Hardy figure from WWE's Brand, I may get a couple of others when the economy can start picking up again.
