I went with Bret, everything about it from
The shock value to the paint job was just amazing. Warrior was good too but I never liked this scan, maybe I was the only one.
That HHH is actually petty decent as well, and gotta give some love to HBK in his best gear.
The Andre head was really good too, overall one of the best sets Jakks ever did.

Was gonna make this thread myself if nobody else did! Glad someone got around to it @nwf  Bret gets my vote. It was the first Classic I ever got and he was my federation's World Champion for ages back when I played with my figures. |

CS 1 Superstars Warrior, is one of the best Jakks figures ever made.
It got me back to collecting wee figures since the Hasbro days.
It helped launch the CS line, as it was the first warrior figure or merch under the wwe umbrella in almost a decade.

What a blast from the past. I was already collecting back in the day, but this series was what got me super into collecting and would ultimately lead to me taking collecting wrestling figures far too seriously and end up with me getting out of the hobby.
I know that the R3 body for Andre and Undertaker being TTL are sore points, but this is a set where I like all six figures and the HHH one I feel is crimanaly underrated.
I went for Ultimate Warrior, they knocked it out of the park with the first attempt with this figure. I love the Shawn Michaels attire, but the headscan does not fit the era so that is why I went for Warrior. In all honesty, each figure in this set has something that I really like about it.
Also are Shawn Michaels and HHH the only figures in the CS line that have a photo and not a picture of the figure on the side of the packaging? It reminds me of the series that has Bret Hart all in pink and it says "from WrestleMania VIII" on the top, I do not think that was done again either.
Also a Socko covered high five (do not worry with a clean sock) to you guys making these polls they are a ton of fun.

Warrior, it's better than mattels imo.

I voted for Warrior as he is the best one from this set, however I will say the others aren't bad. I do dislike the Undertaker and Andre just because of the use of the older style body molds.

Man I’ve been trying to vote 100% fair (whether I had the figure or not) but I’m totally biase with Warrior. He’s the only one of the original set that I owned. He took the cake and then some! The paint, the detail, he was the best of this set. I think only Hart could compare.
Andre was just another Andre. Helmsley was okay but not quite there. Taker was just terrible! Sorry but the paint, the TTL body, the face scan. They could have really made him great. If they’d had used the RA body, a new scan, grey gloves and new boots then Taker would have had my vote. Michaels was so close to being perfect. There’s just something a bit off but I can call it out. And Hart is another beautiful figure.

I didn't have him, but I voted Warrior, he was by far the most detailed of the series, just dig those tassles!
I remember one person's reaction to this Andre as "That's not Andre the Giant, that's the brother from Everybody Loves Raymond!" At the time, I thought they'd done a total cheap out move putting his head on a Big Show body, I actually had a friend who owned a Dremel sand off the knee pads and smooth off the leotard into a singlet. I sculpted mutton chops on him after that. He was my only Andre for a long time, but one of the later polls in this series will get to the one that rocked my wrestlin' collection.

I'm voting for Bret since it's the only one I own. I hate seeing a TTL in classic superstar packaging.

I wish we can that custom, as it does look very interesting as for the poll, i'd say Warrior for sure |

I still remember the first time I found these at Walmart. I didn't hesitate to buy Bret and Warrior on the spot. Voted Warrior, but Bret is absolutely a close second.
