I think it was last years toy fair they showed 2 Mr Kennedy figures dressed as Surfer Sting (one was in green and the other was pink or purple) were they ever released?

Nope, we're still waiting. But then again, we've hardly had anything in the past 2 years.

They would have been the only non Sting figures from Jakks TNA line I'd have purchased besides 1 Hogan, 1 Foley, 2-pack Nash vs Steiner and LoTR Taylor and Raven. It's a shame.

Yep that's them. I guess I thought green because of the Hardy behind the one in pink.

Woah what's with that Jarrett proto For a little while, Jarrett had a faux MMA fighter gimmick mocking Kurt Angle & Samoa Joe. He was the master of Double J Double M-A: It was some of Jarrett's best work I thought.

Those Surfer Sting Andersons would have been a completely easy sell to me, I really enjoyed the angle. Now it's too outdated to be used. I really wish Jakks would pump more figures out, I am really keen on the TNA roster, but sadly so many guys come and go before they've gotten a figure, or Jakks has to ignore them and pump out more Hardy and Hogan figures so the line doesn't sink. I really feel like if they had established a presence and some brand power people would collect them more. Instead they piss off the few people they have left.

I like TNA!! I like watching it!! I'd like to get a few figures!! I wish I could get a Sting, Hogan, Jeff, Angle, MR. Andreson, just to name a few... But... I love Mattel Elites!! They are crafted so SO... Well!! But, I do like TNA!!

probably the most interesting TNA Jakks figs, they could've made.
too bad, they showed all of those protos.....then immediately released a statement saying they were taking a year off

It's so stupid they never released it, because if they release it now it'll be totally irrelevant.

If they'd said that when they were doing WWE line imagine how pissed we'd have been, but I guess the figure that not enough people really care. Well, that's not true. If TNA had continued legends and RA style I'd still be buying them. The fact their main line is deluxe and how poorly out of scale they are with mattels puts Mattel collectors off. I liked mixing my mattels with ra's when I was collecting them but deluxe is impossible as they tower over them. If Jakks could put a new set out every 2 months instead of 6 they'd be doing a lot better.
