I really wish we could get a gray tie to go with the Taker I did see last night on Facebook a MOC pic of this set and taker does come with a tie and a cloth trench coat. And it has a dull finish to it not a shiny leathery look. |

I know.. it’s a bit pricey for the set but I’m probably gonna do it. I need a Mean Gene. I don’t have super great luck finding the PPV series I’ve spent so much already. I want 2 of the Rick rudes for the DX and NwO, so my wallet is definitely gonna be sweating the next few days A cheaper way would just buy the warrior because it comes with BOTH rude heads, then find some suited figures at a local flea market for cheap. Maybe a suited triple h. Bingo 2 rudes without breaking bank. |

Just depends on the price, if not I’ll do like you said |

Got this for the 123/lightning Kid, even though the head sculpt is so-so, newer to collecting and I want New Generation era stuff.

It's been mentioned already, but it's so disappointing when Mattel misses the mark so badly on an iconic attire - Razor's green is HHH's Summerslam '98 all over again. That HHH figure is way worse, of course, but based on all the images, that green has a yellow undertone and the actual gear was on the cool side, definitely a "kelly green." They need to get a better color matching system or someone with better color picking skills...I'm buying this for the 'Taker and Kid, if they sold this Razor by itself it would be a definite skip on a figure I'd otherwise buy.

Just depends on the price, if not I’ll do like you said I've done it for almost all build a figures. For the doc Hendrix, buy the figure with the head and then pick up the new basic seth rollins in the pale blue suit. There's you're affordable doc Hendrix figure. |

I would love if they did a 1-2-3 Kid - with no eyebrows.

This was a bad ass surprise! Great set, preorder was put in as soon as Alex West posted it on IG.
I hope more sets like this, with entrance/display pieces are on the horizon.

i WANT to order this set because it is pretty damn cool, but after the ultimate macho man and no holds barred set, i'm looking at it and wondering if its something i REALLY want to spend money on. it is a pretty good deal, but i've got the legends razor and purple taker already. lightning kid isn't exactly on my radar as a piece i need to add. and while the raw letters are cool and would go great with the new generation ring...its not that hard to make that entrance myself. if its still available in a week or two, i might bite. but i also don't think i'll be bummed if i miss out on it

I'm glad Undertaker comes with complete entrance gear, I had a feeling he was squeezed in there because he didn't have too much detail but the accessories make up for it

Mattel has  ed up so many colors over the years, this Razor thing doesn't bother me. They messed up his purple and I was pissed enough then for it to last a lifetime. They also keep using the wrong knee pads. So this is just more par for the course. Bill has to be color blind. It's weird Razor's boots look right and the rest of him doesn't, but whatever.  |

My favorite color botch was the salmon and black Bret Hart. |

So the Taker is most likely from 93 right?

Great set. As others have said big BCA box set vibe, I love it.
I really only want the RAW letters. As awesome as this is I wonder if it eventually hits clearance. Seems like almost all the Target box sets have

Sadly missed out as that was right before or right when I started and wasn't sure if I wanted to back it because I wasnt sure how serious I was about this. Would love to have it at a reasonable price. |

So the Taker is most likely from 93 right? That's the belief. It is a 30th anniversary set, so 1993 seems right. He wrestled a number of times on Raw in 1993, including on the debut show against Damien Demento. The other two seem to be 1993 as well, specifically from their match on raw in 1993 for the money (an accessory that comes with the set). |

I can’t believe how much I love all three of these figures and the entrance stage pieces. I hope I can snag this somehow
