Hardcore Holly, Tatanka, A-Train, Rosey Luther Reigns, Kurt Angle, Rey Mysterio, Big Show Tatanka and Rosey are really awesome and underrated figures Interesting to note that although Luther and Angle are RA figures, neither one has bicep swivel nor do they bend at the elbow

Cool Bob Holly figure. Is that A-Train a RA3 variant, a custom or from another series? Don't think I've ever seen it with wrist tape, it looks really good.
That R3 Big Show looked amazing for it's time. Remember being blown away when I first saw it along with some of the other R3 figures in my friend's house in 2002.
They really ruined the only Luther Reigns figure by giving it TTL arms. That whole set was really shady on Jakks' part.
And I agree about the Rosey and Tatanka figures. I never bought Tatanka as I never cared for him but looking at it, it's a great figure. It's flawless.

A-Train is RA3 but I swapped out his hands with an extra Christian figure for the black wrist tape and added an elbow pad on his right arm Good eye!

That's my favorite version of Hardcore Holly. Tatanka is a masterpiece. RA holds a place in my heart because Mattel isn't very likely to half the guys you just bought.

some of the best RA figures made.
I think that the Rosey scan was originally made for a Jamal/Rosey pair but was scrapped when they split, because if it were made for rosey as super hero in training the mask would have been molded to the face.....just a thought.

Jakks swore up and down they were going to reship Angle-Reigns and Sylvan-Conway with RA arms but it never happened to my knowledge. The saving grace of that set was Teddy Long which was WAY too tall. But a lot of us bought it because it was Teddy and the flashy clothes were pretty sick.

There was a thread here a week or so ago where people were waxing nostalgic about Jeremy's old forum and I wasn't going to go in there and bring it up, but JP lost any credibility after lying to everyone here like that. I mean, people like that's jobs are to tell half truths and whatnot, but it always felt like he knew they weren't going to re-release those guys. And "Chinese New Year" was never really explained. I mean... lol! What the hell does that even mean?
I loved that Holly as well! Came with a table. Although, seeing him next to an Albert goes to show why the RA line blew those last few years. Had they not invested (and lost, BIG TIME) so much into that deplorable Rocky line, we would've gotten new bodies.
Great haul, are you actively collecting RAs at the moment?

Great haul, are you actively collecting RAs at the moment? I'm not sure I would say actively, but when I watch some older stuff on the internet and realize I don't have a figure of a certain superstar, I will look into it.

Great figures! I remember buying the Angle/ Luther 2 pack and getting it home and realizing the arms were different. I was pissed. Took it right back to the store! Lol 😂
