Voted for Grandmaster Sexay. A stacked set, and I remember Blackman was so hard to track down back when they came out, but Sexay wins for the accesories.

Another home run (for the time) set. I had all of them except Boss Man (who was so similar to his previous TTL that my parents vetoed that one). In fact, Too Cool and Rikishi are th first figures I ever got from Ringside. Tough choice as really I could make a case to vote for any of them except Boss Man. Too Cool captures the gear perfectly, Rikisi is a great likenss and body, Blackman is solid, and Crash with the specific articulation is fantastic (and will probably win this poll) but if I have to pick one I'm going with Scotty 2 Hotty. Captures the gear and look perfectly.

This was a set I passed on everyone. But I would say Crash or Bossman was the best in it.

I really didn't realise until you started doing these that there were so many single Rikishi releases in the TTL line.
Anyway, a fantastic set. Too Cool in that gear I always wanted because those were the ones on the proto pictures for the Smackdown arena and I never had that and never seen this set in stores. Steve Blackman I didn't have a figure of till the Classic line came out, I hate the face on this one. Big Boss Man is brilliant, but I always remember this era of Bossman in all balck so the blue just feels off to me, weird reasoning I know but it just doesn't sit right even though it's a cracking figure.
My vote has to be Crash, the Houdini of Hardcore. The fact they gave him the attire I'll always remember him in, a hardcore title, his hat and then went the full monty and gave him the hand to pose in his most iconic look for me is just a home run. I love, love, love this figure!

I was divided between Rikishi & Boss Man.....I ended up going with Boss Man because of the overall detail to the figure & it would’ve made a great CS figure IMO

Damn I just can't choose, they are all awesome.
Possibly one of the best TTL sets ever.

I went with Bossman although again they were all awesome. As said above though, never realized how many Rikishi’s made it into the line. Damn lotta Kish!

I voted for Big Boss Man because I really like that figure and I actually own two of them. Such a awesome figure IMO and fun to display in an TTL display.
My second place goes Crash Holly which is another one I really like alot especially having him with the hardcore championship. Third place goes to Steve Blackman, fourth to Scotty 2 Hotty, 5th to Grandmaster Sexay, and 6th to Rikishi.

Scotty 2 Hotty -- but so close for Crash Holly. The Crash mold and face is amazing -- it would be a top figure today with Mattel...
Question -- were you able to reshape Crash's arm so he also could funcgtion like a normal figure?

Question -- were you able to reshape Crash's arm so he also could funcgtion like a normal figure? Sort of. His arm did move and was fully articulated, but the shoulder joint was turned inward, so it didn’t have the full range of motion the rest of the line had. EDIT: Found a pic of Crash with his arm in the down position.  |

THis set is packed with great likenesses so it was a really hard choice. In the end I voted for Scotty 2 Hotty, the amount of detail on that figure is just insane. Especially when you consider the corners Jakks would cut during the RA era.
My second place would be Crash Holly and then third, Big Boss Man.

These are just so good, but Crash Holly gets my vote.
These RotR figures were just so dang great. If I hadn't been so young (and poor) when they came out, I'd probably have a whole closet full of them.
I still want that Crash figure.

One of the first sets where I had every single figure. An all time set. Grandmaster being my favorite figure in the set.
