Hurricane won the series 4 poll. What's up with dat? Now for series 5!
John Cena Tajiri Billy Kidman Kane Kevin Nash Shawn Michaels Out of these my favourite is HBK. It's a shame that the chaps are missing though. They did give him chaps in this playset:

For me its Tajiri. Nash has a terrible painted singlet, Kane's lack of beard is ridiculous I never remember seeing him clean shaven with that mask, HBK figure is nice for the head scan, but the combination of having the wrong boots, wrong colour tights, no arm tattoo and no kneepads probably the most offensively worst figure of the set imo.

I remember when I found this set in stores, I was so happy. Got them all but Cena/Kidman but man looking back on this set, it’s brutal! That was a debut scan for HBK, but the tights meh, Gotta give my vote to Kane. This was the only masked RA Kane for a long time, the unmasked Kane was re released so many times.

Only 5 series in and ANOTHER Cena and Kidman?
I didn’t have any of these as a kid. I remember seeing Nash and thinking how terrible he looked, same with HBK. Taijiri isn’t too bad looking. I’ll have to give this one to Kane.

I'm really enjoying the stroll down memory lane with the polls. Thanks for putting these together. I still have that Kane on display.

I go with Kane, and in second place would be Tajiri.

Kane for me one of the best figures in the RA line for me, but I really liked the Shawn Michaels as well. I remember having this figure and buying the two pack of Shawn Michales and....... I am drawing a blank here, it was either RVD or Jericho. Anyway that two pack came with the chaps. Plus they released that internet exclusive that had the chaps and the vest together.

It was Jericho in Series 3- That was one of my favourite Adrenaline sets but the chaps sitch is throwing me. I vividly remember it coming with chaps but none of the pictures of this set that I've found have chaps. Weird haha. HBK did come with RVD in Adrenaline Series 1 though

HBK did come with RVD in Adrenaline Series 1 though You have kind of got my gears turning and I think that some sets of that maybe did come with both the chaps and the vest or at the very least were advertised. Did Argos here in the UK not have a set that had him with both? There was the internet exclusive Shawn Michaels that did have both the chaps and the vest, it had the same head scan as the one in the AD pack not RA5.

I went in for an Eddie Guerrero Unlimited figure but they didn't have any. Ended up walking out with this set and an Unlimited Billy Kidman.

HBK
Answers for the ones I missed - Series 1 - Brock (if Orton had the shorts instead of trunks I would have said him.) Series 2 - Scott Steiner Series 3 - Golddust Series 4 - Hurricane (just edged out Goldberg)

Ugh, The Unlimited Figures!!!! they looked so cool at the time, I have a Triple H, Hulk Hogan and The Rock and they all have disintegrated in one way or another. The Hulk Hogan one especially is bad, it is like the material is just crumbling away I have had them in a zip lock bag up in the attack for years, scared to look at them lol.

Kidman was the only one I ended up getting haha. The metal skeleton inside of it started poking through the rubber skin so the figure looked pretty effed up. Jakks had some weird concepts between Unlimited, Flex Ems and the Face Flipping line. Not even gonna get into Maximum Sweat from the TTL days haha.

It was one of the only ones they did where you could get a 360 view of the figure without opening it. So cool

I always bought ones that literally had back paint melted onto the bubble! Or...for figures with an unpainted back *cough AD2 Stacy Keibler cough*
