I have stumbled across the Off the Ropes series 11 Randy Orton, but the only picture of it is very small. I also saw a loose one on ebay and it doesn't appear to have any tattoos. I was wondering if that was true, and if this figure was a reissue from Ruthless or Adrenaline, or Treacherous Trios, or if it was an original figure?

It's Orton in a gray t-shirt and blue jeans. The loose one that I saw on E-bay has no tattoos on his arms. I know that they cheaped out on some of the re-issues of figures, such as the JBL that was missing his stripes on his jacket when it came out in the Off the Ropes line.

Wow, you know, it helps to look at the back. I didn't realize there were two views on that one. I was eyeballing the one that was MOC, and it is a very small picture. I also thought that Orton's old tattoos were on the inside of his forearms. :-[Feels Stupid

That's my item by the way. I have front and back pics on all of my figures. You bought another Orton figure from me recently, didn't you?
His old tats were on the outside of his forearms. Jakks did like to put them on the inside forearms sometimes though!

Ok, the tattoo on the left arm is on the bottom and the right arm wraps from the back to the side. I have an old Ruthless Orton that has them on the inside, as well as the Summerslam heritage Orton from Mattel.
Jakks and Mattel are all over the place with the application and size, and Mattel's rendition of his sleeve tattoos just look like gray blobs. Technically you should probably be able to see his left arms tat, but that's excusable for the difficulty and expense of an extra paint app.

Jakks did like to put them on the inside forearms sometimes though! Yeah, that was me. I'm trying to do what I did with the Mattel line and get one of every headscan that was done by Jakks. I'm also trying to get the heavy hitters out of the way. I had some older Orton figures with the first two scans, but never the later ones. Jakks also has the interesting little extra of having street clothes wrestlers, hence the interest in this particular figure. Was he only Off the Ropes or was he also in RA, Adrenaline, or Treacherous trios? Edit: P.S. You have a great ebay store. Killer selection and sharp photos.

Thanks! I do need to retake some pictures as the flash shows up worse than I thought it did in some of them.
I'm pretty sure that this Orton was only in the Off the Ropes series. I don't remember any other street gear Ortons other than a few wearing Evolution t-shirts and an early Ruthless series with his first headscan where he's wearing this off-white vest.
