I came across something I had not seen before on Ebay and was curious just exactly what it is. I saw a Goldberg figure with a shirt I didn't recognize in a package branded WWE Raw Metal. Another quick search of the Raw Metal tag produced a Kane as well. Again, I wasnt so sire I had seen this version of Kane. It was like an RA5 body with the unmasked head. This listing had "exclusive" in the title. These were both expensive.
If these were exclusive, then to whom? Are these new releases or repaints?

RAW Metal I believe was an online exclusive to Ringside Collectibles (I'm not 100% sure). It did only feature Kane & Goldberg as mentioned. That was the only time that Kane was released however Goldberg was re-released in Ruthless Aggression 7.5.

All right, I didn't think I had seen that Kane before. I'm real spotty on my knowledge of early RA and PPV figures for Jakks, and I hardly know anything about exclusives.

Wasn't the Raw Metal series the one that was originally going to have that RA Mr America that got cancelled? I remember ordering both the Goldberg and the Kane from ACG back when they were unveiled, but i could swear MrAmerica was supposed to be the third figure in the set.

I had totally forgotten about that until now, but yeah. Some people mention the [then] upcoming Mr. America fig in this old thread: wrestlingclassics.com/.ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=9;t=021215A shame we never did get any version of him. I still have the Raw Metal Kane MOC.

Wish it was a proper series because the packaging was amazing.

Wasn't Linda originally going to be apart of the ACG exclusives, got cancelled, and then got positioned for the McMahon Family 4-Pack, which also got cancelled?
I know for sure Mr. America was. I remember someone who either worked there or had a connection claimed to have seen it, too.

Shame that neither her nor a proper Mr America (the mattel CAW Hogan being the closest thing ever done) ever got produced.

Linda was planned twice before the ACG figure(I think a 2-pack with Vince, then the McMahon family 4-pack) She was also planned for a CS figure but was also canceled. From what I understand, she wouldn't approve the figures because they made her look too old.

Funny how the Goldberg is so high now, because it was offered for free on orders over $35 or whatever for a looong time.
