Thanks alot for the list bro! No problem! I am hoping to post a series breakdown list soon. For a change of topic, aside from the actually purchase of a CS figure, what part did you guys get the most excited about: - New Name Signings - New Line-Ups - Proto Images or - MOC Images I think the MOC part was my favorite followed by learning of new line-ups. I think I've always been most excited about moc images, with any line. Protos don't rally give much away, I mean except maybe headscans. Moc you know how they fully turned out, if any changes were made, accessories etc. plus I liked if they were in some sort of cool pose. Easily amused, I know. Lets throw a little question out there to keep this going. Is there anyone in the line you wished they didn't make? I honestly can't think of any apart from ted dibise jnr, natalya and the Ljn John cena. What about you's? |

I have every singles,exclusives most 2packs and every 3pack except wm5. The first fig that got me hooked was cs3 bret. I love the attire. Then I saw taker and warrior and was like I have to have them. It was easier for me to get series 2 as they were still hanging around. I eventually got series 1 sometime later. I used to work at kb toys so I was lucky enough to purchase the whole case when they came in.

I honestly can't think of any apart from ted dibise jnr, natalya and the Ljn John cena. What about you's? I've always enjoyed seeing new faces in the CS line as it just added to the already number of people included. I mean I was really hoping for a debut attire John Cena as he was slated for CS 24. Because years from now people will realize that he carried the company through a changing time period. However, I will say that starting maybe around CS 18, JAKKS really should have focused on producing and releasing new names already signed on. But instead they gave us a lot of un-necessary re-paints and almost re-releases including: - Most of CS 24 - CSTT 10 - Yokozuna & Bret, Atlas & Johnson - A lot of CS 22 - All of CS 28 - Most 3-packs So many spots that could have given us new names were taken/wasted with a lot of re-paints. I don't mind the bigger names or guys having only 1 other CS figure. But guys like HHH, Bret, HBK, and others. |

Gregory Helms - WAS NEVER A CLASSIC TO MY KNOWLEDGE (have his belt pack figure) His Figure & Belt pack has a CS logo on the front, thus he is a CS figure. I'm not saying I agree with it as I feel it was simply a packaging mistake by JAKKS. But that is how it is. |

Jakks made so many classic superstars, when I go looking through my collection I get excited like I completely forgot that person was made or that I had the figure. LOL. I love Mattel's work but it sucks that we all had to basically start over and that we will never have everyone we wanted.

It seems that everytime i find moc classic series figures they are too high. I seen both of the CS 12 nasty boyz moc for $60.00 i thought that was high.
My biggest regret was seeing the hartfoundation and champions packs both moc for $20.00 each.in the local flea market. I asked my dad for the money (i am unemployed) and buy the time he gave it to me they were gone.

I agree those 3 not being made was such a shame. Hell anyone that was to have their first CS figure and didn't was a shame. Mulligan, Sandman, Patterson, Headbangers, Bradshaw, etc all would have been awesoem additions to the CS line. Thanks for commenting on my collection. I have actually changed my set-up and I am hoping to show some new pictures about mid November after I'm done renovations on our house. The shelving units my dad and I made about 6 years ago or so. I designed them for my CS figures! |

I am currently trying to find a loose CS 1/3,000 Edge for my display and the cheapest one I've seen is $50 moc! |

Hey man, no biggie. You've got some nice figures there! Always enjoy seeing people's CS collections!
Not that I have heard back yet, but I've emailed Jeremy and asked if he or anyone at JAKKS still had photos of any unreleased figures. In the past I've conducted a few interviews with jeremy and he was quick to reply. Actually if anyone is interest I can post a CS-related interview I did with him about a gew years back.

Thought Ild add this question about the classic line.
I know not alot of people liked the final series (CS28) however I believe these did not get released in big numbers (correct me if im wrong) like the other series any one now how many of the figures got released was it more like an exclusive i.e 3000 of each?
Do you think in time these will be hard to get hold of due to limited numbers and not many people getting them for there collection?
I see on ebay the last series of the hasbro's always sale well just wonder if CS28 will end up being the same.

I see on ebay the last series of the hasbro's always sale well just wonder if CS28 will end up being the same. I ponder this at times. I think in general, Rey & Piper will not fetch much now or even 10 years from now. Bret & Shawn will probably become sought after. Undertaker & Triple H could go either way, but will probably fetch a pretty penny at some point. I plan on having a full second set. Now had the original CS 28 line-up been released, you could bet the house those figures would be fetching high prices that would only go up in the years. |

Was cs 28 released in limited quantities then? see that this has been mentioned above which makes sense as I could only get them online.
did they ever say how many of each was released?
How many got released in a normal cs line?
Thanks

I have never gotten actual production numbers on 2 and 1 per case figures. SOmething I'd be interested in knowing.
As far as CS 28 goes, I believe they were far less in total production than all previous CS series. CS 28 seemed only available online. With the exception of a single CS 28 figure at a Rite Aid (I find this hard to believe), I know of no other national retail store that stocked CS 28.
