Hi All,
Just wondered if folks could advise on the new LJN "style" figures that Jakks released. I've got a full collection of the original LJNs and I'm wondering whether the new ones would look good alongside them.
Am I right in thinking that the new LJNs aren't the same size? It is baffling why Jakks would release them but not make them fit in with the old ones...very frustrating!
Do folks recommend getting them and are they still coming out?

The Jakks figures are the same size as the OSFT ones, about 1/2 a head shorter than the LJN's. The Jakks figures of these ended at series 28.
Most people I have talked to about them do not like them. I think they are ok. I ended up getting them all at the same time in a lot.

Thanks for the info. Think I'll give them a miss....it'll look weird having an Undertaker whose half a head shorter than the rest of the LJNs!! Its a shame though :-(

Yeah i don't think they are the same scale. Hated these things. They did LJN throwbacks that wre not compatable with LJNs. To me they wasted a spot in the line that oculd have given us another figure. ARg Jakks.

As was already mentioned, they're closer in scale to the Original San Francisco Toymakers' WCW figures from the late 90s. In fact, they design and look of them is more reminiscent of them, as well. I kind of like some of them (I bought Undertaker, Rock, Shawn, and a few others), but you're right that they're definitely a pass if the idea is to display them with LJNs.
