No real stand out, but nothing really bad. Finally no rikishi lol
Angle and Austin had new scans, although I preferred the other angle scan but I liked this attire. Jericho’s shirt is hilarious, even if it’s incorrect I like Jericho best

Good set. Big Show had potential but without the scale it was always gonna look silly. The shirt on Jericho is funny but I would have loved to have got that attire in ring gear. My vote would have went to Taker if he had a painted vest on underneath but that is asking abit much since the top isn't intended to be removed really. Otherwise it's one of the best TTL Undertakers.
I really like the Austin figure, recently picked this one up on card. Very nice. My vote went to Kurt though. That singlet design is one of my all time favorite looks of his and Jakks done a cool job bringing it to life here, plenty of detail.
This is an interesting set in that it substitutes two words that aren't toy friendly on two of the figures. Shut the HELL up is replaced with Shut the HECK up on Jericho's top. And DEADMAN Inc. on Taker's shirt and trousers is nowhere to be seen, being left with just Decade of Destruction on both. Even Rock is meant to have 'On Your Candyass' on the back of his shirt but that was obviously never gonna be featured, so they just went with nothing instead.

Found the new packaging design to be quite bland and boring compared to the previous ones. Little confused though, Raven, Saturn and Benoit were released in the Heat packaging so did it revert back briefly? It's been so long I can't remember.
Very weak set but if I have to choose I will go with Taker.

Raven and Saturn were in rotr3 which came out before this and after the wmx7 package - Benoit (I assume rebellion 2) also came out before this. This was the first set in new lame blue package (also rotr4 and rebellion 4 ) and it was late 2001 I think or fall 2001

Np Yeah jakks seem to change their package every quarter or so- and then all the main lines would follow suit not including box sets or random one off series like super stunners / no way out 1

The Big Show body is horrible -- and the scans are Jericho and Angle are embarrassing.
The others are OK -- I'd vote for Taker

Went with Undertaker on this one, a decent set without anything jumping out really. Jerichos shirt is hilarious, Big Show I owned as a kid but it's a terrible figure looking back. It's a shame as I really like that scan on him but the body is just ridiculous.

I voted for Undertaker as I like the shirt and it fits him as good as these rubber shirts could. The Rock one looks like some kind of fat guy shirt lol. My second place would be for Austin as I love that new scan, third place would probably be Jericho even with the PG edited shirt.
