They said RoH series 1 would be out by April.... Its almost July. WTF??? I believe they said they were hopeful to show something by spring time not release in spring. Then we got proto pics. The rep said in an interview the belts went into production first and actual production on the figures started early this year. |

I wonder if we'll get a complete Bullet Club wave. I'll get them all for sure. Looks like this confirms at least one new mold since she is the first female announced. Word. New molds is good news. I wonder why they haven't just disassembled some jakks figs and recast the parts they don't have the molds for. I just hope the newly sculpted parts blend in nicely with the existing ra parts. |

They just released a photo of the New Jack head sculpt on Twitter. Just the mold not painted. Very detailed, scar tissue and all!

I read the tweet wrong. It said we hopw to have something out by April meaning photoa of progress not an actual release. Sorry! |

That head doesn't really scream New Jack to me yet, but ya gotta love the scar tissue!
If they're making Amber O'Neal, I hope they use the Deluxe Knockouts body. Crossing my fingers they sign Cheerleader Melissa to a deal.

I don't know New Jack well enough to properly comment on the likeness but the sculpt does at least have quite a realistic style, which impresses me. The details look a little rough though, hopefully they plan on sharpening/cleaning them up a bit.
Also I must admit I'm still quite anxious about seeing the heads actually on the bodies, I'm really looking forward to some new RA Legends but if they have oversized heads my heart will just sink.

Crossing my fingers they sign Cheerleader Melissa to a deal. They have already said RA molds. Not Deluxe. Yeh the whole point of this line is to continue the already expansive and popular RA line. As has been stated, when Jakks got the TNA license they did 2 official polls on which style the collectors wanted (RA, DA or a new style), and both times 70%-80% of the votes were for RA style. It's those collectors this line is aimed at. -- For anyone like me who isn't too familiar with New Jack, I found this pic which looks to be a similar expression to the headsculpt:  |

His personaloty is very... gangsta esque. He's a very hard person, in and out of the ring, with one honorable homicide during a carreer in bounty Hunting. His in ring work is very fun though. Any time the guitar came out, he would olay a string or two the crush his opponent with it. He always came to the ring with a trash can full of weapons. He was in a tag team with Mustafa in both ECW and SMW as The Gangsta's. My most memorable maych of thwirs was in ECW against The Eliminators in a cage. New Jack was also known for his dives off of balconies in ECW. Later taken and used by Spike Dudley. If you can bare the language and vicabulary skills, listen to some of his shoot interviews. He has some funny stories, yet seems to have heat with nearly the entire ECW lockerroom. I can't  ing wait for this figure! |

There are definitely a few guys I would pick up to round out my RA collection......Shane Douglas for one if they could get the rights to him.

They have already said RA molds. Not Deluxe. I figured the Deluxe women's body was the one most recently in production. I messaged Ceejay from reddit, and he confirmed it's RA for the girls too. Oh well. At least, that means their heads probably won't be balloon sized. |

If the figures are being produced by edit *censored*, why does everyone keep discussing Jakks RA mold? I'm sincerely asking, as I'm not sure what's going on. I just desperately want Ring Of Honor/Indies Figures.

The Legends line, ROH line and indies line will all use existing RA body molds, which I assume Jakks sold to the company

I'm really curious about all of the Bullet Club members. Since there's no deal with NJPW, can they use Bullet Club logos on the gear and accessories?
Also, this better mean we're getting a Machine Gun!!!
