Barbarian and Warlord could have been two of the best figures had they given them all their entrance gear. I get that they were cutting costs at this point in the line, but had we got Barbarian and Warlord in the first few series, I think they could have been pretty spectacular.
Kona Crush was a figure I wanted for ages in the line and I think the attempt is not all that bad, I just wished he was taller. I think this is a figure that certainly looks better on card than standing on a shelf next to other figures.
One figure that I think is pretty good is Steve Blackman. Sure the figure is pretty plain, but so was he and it captures him very, very well.
My pick goes to Sgt Slaughter. I like how they gave him a jacket and hat and I have always been a sucker for a good Sgt Slaughter figure.

Toss up between Slaughter and Doink for me. Might give slaughter the edge due to clothing.
Really bad choices for Powers of Pain singles attires. Blackman is good but plain.

I cast that tying vote for Dr. Death. I vote Sgt. Slaughter. That's the definitive Sarge figure.

Always been a big Kona Crush fan so he gets my vote. How come they re-released the exact same Big Show from Wave 25?

I voted for Goldberg because the attire plus they gave him the MMA gloves rather than painted gloves. This is my favorite Jakks Goldberg. My second place goes to Steve Blackman it might be plain but love having an updated figure of him at the time. My third place goes to Sgt. Slaughter.

I thought Sherri Martel was in this series? I think she was originally meant to be but ended up being marketed as an Exclusive for some reason.

Skaaland was shelved, and Sherri went to RSC.

It's too bad we never got that figure.
