I received all of these figures on Friday, and aside from the HoF Macho King I got earlier this week, these are the first figures I've bought since I got back into collecting in November. 1. E41 1-2-3 Kid. Bought NIB. I actually really like the look of this figure, but I was disappointed by a couple things. First, his ab crunch is so loose that handling the figure at all causes him to hunch forward or back and then I have to keep readjusting it. Also, his back has got scuffs on it like some kid has been bodyslamming him! 2. E41 Terry Funk. Bought NIB. As you can see, I added knee pads from a Stone Cold basic to complete the look. I really like this figure. No complaints. 3. DM SCSA. Bought loose for like $12. It's not bad, but I'm not really impressed with it either. The legs are too skinny and it just kinda bores me, but I needed an elite Austin. 4. Lost Legends Warrior. Bought NIB. I was on the fence about getting this figure, since I already have several other Warriors, but when I saw him at $14.40 on Amazon I figured what the hell. It's actually a really beautiful figure, but the odd thing is he doesn't stand up very well. It's almost like his feet aren't perfectly flat, because he wobbles around no matter how I position him, which is kinda irritating. Overall, considering their flaws, I would rank them as follows. 1. Funk - flawless, even better now that I've added the knee pads. 2. Warrior - beautiful but wobbly. 3. Kid - Scuffs and loose ab crunch hurt an otherwise great figure. 4. SCSA - Doesn't excite me.

All I ever hear is "the legs are too skinny." Remember Jakks figures? You couldnt even fit someones head there for a powerbomb/piledriver/pedigree.... Now we have this awesome rang of motion and articulation, and it always boils back down to a slightly small or too ripped/not ripped enough torso or legs....

While I am not seeing g it in yours I haven't seen a 123 Kid that didn't suffer from the yellow flesh colored torso. Not as bad as the ryback that was posted a few months back, but pretty close.

My Warrior L6 has done the same since day one. He just doesn't stand properly lol
Has anyone tried switching stone cold's calves with lesnar's to give him his chicken legs look?

Because it was either applied to thick or not thick enough.

Was hoping for a "cool" but I'll take that I guess.

Biggest complaint about 123 Kid is the inclusion of only 1 tag team belt. Since they will likely never make his tag team partner, Marty Jannetty, there will never be a complete pair of titles. This forces you buy one loose or another 123 Kid.

I like these all except 1-2-3 kid. Just because I never was a kid fan. Then again i never was a funk fan but the figure is excellent

Thanks by the way on the heads up on the kneepads. Made the same switch last night and the Funk looks even better after. Thanks again!!!!!!!

Solid gets but be forewarned that apparently no one is buying the legends series aside from you, myself and about a thousand others.

Yeah, that's called people having opinions. I don't spend a lot of time criticizing my figures, but in this case I do believe the legs are a bit too skinny. No matter how awesome the figures are, people will still have opinions.
