Does anyone know where I can get these for relatively cheap? Any reviews/loose pics of these?

Yes, and I sent you a PM with the info (since we're not supposed to advertise anyone else but ringsidecollectibles in the forums). They're not bad and the set includes some figures that aren't likely to be made in any Classics sets. They're not near the quality of the Jakks offerings, but a lot of them look pretty good, nontheless.

Yeah, thanks a lot for that. Do you think these would make for decent figures to use for an old school, territory style pic fed?

Is it worth it to pay 56 bucks shipped for the entire set (bloody, non bloody, and glowing)?Or is it kind of a waste because I'll be getting doubles of a lot? 56 is kind of a lot to spend, but I really do enjoy the look/style of a lot of these figures. |

Also, sorry for the double posting/so many annoying questions, but I tried ordering just two figures to see what they were like from spam, and forgot to check the paypal box, so it just says my order has been processed or whatever. Are they going to send a bill to my house or something? Will they just ignore this since there were no credit card info filled out?

I believe that If there's no billing info they can't process the order. I'm not up on their order fulfillment process, but that seems logical to me. If you just want one of each guy I think it would be better to just pick and choose for $3 a piece. A dollar per figure plus shipping for the entire set is actually really cheap, but if you're on a budget then it seems kind of steep. I see it as you could get one video game or 48 figures, then it doesn't seem so bad. They're not super poseable, but you may be able to do a good pic fed based on them. It's all up to your creativity I guess. I just collect for display, and they are fine for that purpose. |

Never saw the point of those. |

Never saw the point of those. There's something to be said for the accuracy of a bloody Sheik figure, though. With him, it almost seems fitting. But you're right, I bought mostly the regular versions of everyone else. I didn't want red-spattered figures of the other guys. The glow in the dark are as senseless as those "bronze" Charapro figures. |

I have the kamala & abdullah, which are pretty much the same figure. I actually like the abdullah better than the jakks version.

The Classic is nice, but I was disappointed when it came out seeing as how nice the Legends figure is. It'll probably be the only Wahoo McDaniel figure ever produced, and that's a very nice one as well. -J\/\/ |

What site is selling the entire set? spam? or Highspots? I don't recall seeing it on either of them, But I may have over looked it. Also if it isin't either of them and you have the link could you please pm it to me? Thanks

they made 22 figures, which were great, then another 22 with a blood splattered effect (painted red), 4 glow in the dark figures (pointless) and a selection of double packs. overall a good deal for $48.00.
if anyone from the u.k buys this deal could they tell me how much inc shipping it was. thanks.

as ichiban2008 said spam has accessories like guard rails ect. maybe you could get a generic dollar store ring and customize it into your territory logo. i'd like to see someone do a fed using them. i have steamboat, abby,and a few others. i actually like the figs.

I'm probley going to buy the whole set in the coming months, so I may do a fed with them, I'm also planning to make a custom hogan and Flair to go with them. I'll probley use two of the bloody vairents that I don't want for parts, and then I'll probley end up getting Andre as well. Also STOMWIJF had loose pictures of Andre on here a couple of years ago.
