See original post below - this is the series 12 normal and Variant. Likely my fav of the collection. (Yes I have more)      ************** In 2007 I was lucky enough to make contact with Warrior. I purchased a full set (at the time) of signed classic Superstars. They came completed with COAs and hand written letters of authenticity. I have long wanted to grade the figures. This I had an idea, let’s grade the figure and get the hand written letter cased at the same time. Well, below is the result. I am super stoked with the outcome. I will share more when I get home from holidays - currently in the UK on holiday. This graded at 90...    Shout out to the wonderful team at UkGraders More to come |

That Warrior is one of the first CS figures I ever got. With the figure being signed and the handwritten letter, this is one amazing piece!

Home from the UK, and I have removed the protective plastic wrap. I am very pleased to say they all made the trip safe and sound. Thank goodness. Series #14 for your viewing pleasure.    Thanks to those that have commented, I would love to hear what people think of these. I am very stoked to have them and they are the best part of my collection. I am going to start down sizing my other stuff to focus on high end graded figures. I have purchase my first carded hasbro. series 8 Bret Hart, paid a mint for it, as it’s in great shape and I plan to get it graded soo . |

Thanks for sharing, Jakks did such a great job with the Ultimate Warrior. I actually would go as far to say that he is a character I feel they did a better job with than Mattel.
I really liked this figure. The attire was cool and the new face scan was pretty fun and helps make the figure extra unique. These are awesome collection pieces man, congrats on having them.

That CS 12 Warrior is one of my favorites from the whole like. I know Jakks did a horrible job the last few waves. However, figures like this showed that while there were all in on the line they well and truly were all in. It is crazy with the amount of detail that this figure had it was just a standard release. I guarantee that if this same figure was made now it would be an Elite or more than likely some kind of expensive special edition.

They look cool displayed but I genuinely have never understood why people get figures graded.

They look cool displayed but I genuinely have never understood why people get figures graded. It’s funny, cause I can’t understand how MOC collectors don’t want to grade all their figures. I know if I could I would do every single one of mine... at this stage I’ll be doing my Hasbro Hitman and Hasbro Warrior next... but I understand your point, it’s not for everyone, and seems most are either completely for it or completely against it. |

I never made a point, I was hoping you’d answer why people get their stuff graded so I could understand to some extent. For me, I got the Warriors graded because I was a big fan of Warrior as a kid, and these were something I was able to purchase directly from him as an adult. I wanted a way to persevere them, and the experience I had in buying them - while also paying tribute to him. So this is what I came up with. As for the future and what I’ll get graded, as an MOC collector - I think it improves the look of the figure. For me it could also be a whole new type of collecting - Loose, MOC and now graded collectors. |

Warrior is one of the few figures from Jakks I wish I would’ve kept. Those were always pretty sweet.
