TOY FAIR 2008 IMAGES! TONS OF IMAGES

OMG Yes, we finally get an Unmatched Fury Bret Hart. I want it right now.

Whatever figs I want im getting

I'm really excited for the Kaufman/King pack. I think Andy looks absolutely amazing.

is there any word yet who are joining Kaufman/ King in that series... Man I hope the Killer Bees and Bulldogs rumors were true...

And the fact that Eddie has a removable mask makes me hope even more that the Bees do.

I like some of what i saw,,but for the most part a bunch of useless crap that will not sell..I am so glad WWE dumped jakks..Its time for a change..If the change is good then we win..If its not then i save money..Like i will do this year and next after seeing what jakks has in store for the coming months..

First off, WHY does WF always post such small low res pics? This has been going on for too many years now, whoever organizes the pics, next time lets have some hi res PLEASE. Now on to the product...

-Jim Ross - was expecting a classic style with rubbish headscan, but this is a great fig, and the headscan is dead-on
-Val Venis - very nice, i much prefer this look to the RA, and it's also good to see another Val figure, he never got many for some strange reason.
-Sunny - pretty good likeness, not perfect, but female figs usually look better in the final product anyway. would have preferred a non-team attire tho.
-Rikishi - hmm... very odd looking, this isn't very good at all. the headscan looks odd i don't know what else to say about that. the body is just wrong. the umaga torso would have been a lot better.
-Adam Bomb - the biggest let down for me. it's not a bad figure, but i DETEST screaming scans, and tongue scans are even worse. this has ruined my plans to make a Bryan Clark fixup, the scan wouldn't work at all. Here's hoping for a KroniK set when Crush signs. shame they left the goggles on, i hope they are removeable, looks like they are, but would have been better to put the goggles on his head so we could see his eyes.
-Kane - ugh... what a piece of crap. He needed a new torso mould, and the old TTL headscan is awful, it looks nothing like his mask. they should have used the R3 scan. laziness by jakks here.
-Mabel - pretty plain, cloth bodysuit would have been better, but i'm happy with my RA Viscera anyway.
-Mae Young - look pretty good but i'm not a Mae fan really. wonder if it'll be topless under the singlet? lol. would be funny if it was.
-Tiger Mask - nothing to say really, it's an ok fig i guess.
-Honky Tonk - boring repaint...
-Jerry Lawler - boring repaint...
-Andy Kaufman - looks ok, not a fan really, is that a new torso?
-UMF Finlay & hornswoggle - crap finlay scan yet again, and another damn screaming scan for horny too. i hope the RA horny looks better if they ever get around to making it, which i'm not sure they will, i think they're just putting it off until he's fired personally, i don't think they ever had any intention of making him in RA, TBH.
-UMF Jake Roberts - might get it IF the snake is removeable. which it probably isn't knowing jakks. poor likeness as usual for CS UMFs, do the sculptors think they're better than realscan or something? because they're not and the figures look a lot better, so i dunno why they don't just use the realscan (or computer scanned pics, whatever) RA heads.
-LJNs, Vinyl, Big Head things - ing waste of space

only other thing to say is they didn't show very much, which is disappointing in itself. and no real surprises either.

looking forwad to the Q&A, i really hope we get plenty of decent questions and decent answers

lol. classic quote right there for Jakks CS department.

it's funny how when kaufman signed, some people were saying what a great and important signing he is. but i went back and looked on a WF survey of CS, macho man got like 400 votes, and kaufman got like 2. enough said...



LMFAO!!!!! ;D

I said in a thread I made that there are more pics coming from Jakks, protos as they didn't have space to display all the things due to a small venue. Unfortunately the thread was deleted by the mods for some reason....but at least there's hope.

The different levels of scaling is throwing me off this year.

• Jericho's screaming scan is perfect, as is Carlito's new one. Too bad they're not RAs.
  
• Love that new UF Finlay/Hornswoggle. They really got Finlay's physique down.
  
• The UF Bret Hart is so freakin' awesome.
  
• Love the Jake Roberts UF too. His snake looks phenomenal.
  
• I'm so glad they gave gray-shirt Triple H his newest RA scan. It makes the figure look ten times better that way.
  
• While I'm still getting the Rhodes set, Dusty is ridiculously too skinny. And why they changed MVP's skintone is beyond me.
  
• New RA Finlay looks odd. Did he ever have attire with stripes down the middle like that? Otherwise it looks like how his debut figure should've looked two years ago. Rey in lime green and black is a must buy. Love the RA1-styled all white Rey. New Candice looks good.
  
• Lawler and Andy, holy ****...this is one of the ones people were hoping for in the very beginning. Nice touch with the chesthair on Lawler.
  
• The DA or whatever it is Underaker scan is easily his best scan of all-time. They finally realized that putting his hair over his ears will make him look so much better. Now if they could only do that for an RA Shawn we'd be set.
  
• New torso on Finlay. Fix the stupid arms and you have one nice figure.
  
• Not too impressed with Jericho's tights. Shouldn't they have a lot of silver in them that stands out? Triple Orange looks good for what he is. I really like his new scan.
  
• Mabel is straight up lazy and thrown together.
  
• HTM is good, but when you look at the 3-packs version it's hard to compare to.
  
• No complaints about Black Tiger Eddie. Removable mask on top of it? I'm sold. Definitely didn't expect to see this one. All I want now is a half black/half gold pants Halloween Havoc WCW Eddie from when he wrestled Mysterio.
  
• Great scan on Mae.
  
• Mixed feelings on Kane. For starters they reused an old pre-RA scan. That's an immediate no no especially since it s how it fits on a RA body. Not sure if I like the attire being so low cut, but the attire itself was very well done. Would've preferred a sleeved Kane but at least this one turned out pretty good. Love how they did the see-thru flames...the real question is how much will it get cost-cutted before it is released?
  
• Good God why did they do that to Rikishi? Didn't they just make a new fat mold for Umaga that would work perfectly? Don't get Jakks sometimes...don't get them at all.
  
• JR is what I expected. I'm holding out for a black/red blazer JR.
  
• Sunny is amazing! Now all we need is LOD Hawk with an extra set of kneepads for Animal as his accessory.
  
• They need to fix Val's hair color. SHW torso may have worked better too, but I'm just happy to be getting an Attitude Era Val.
  
• Black attire MVP is great! Too bad there's not a black/purple RA.
  
• I love how the new backstage set reverted back into the R3 backstage set.
  
• Those new cartoony figures are cool as hell. Maybe I'm in the minority here but I really dig them.
  
• Unexpected BNB CS figures! I'm sure they look better once you put their size in perspective. Otherwise that HBK his terrible up close.
  
• Bret Hart looks like Steven Tyler and Cher combined.
  
• Umaga has no consistency in body part proportion whatsoever, which is why it's terrible in my view. If Jakks are too lazy to make new parts when they need to, I just won't bother with it.
  
• As others have said, what is with the lack of new RA figures? Especially the seemingly obvious ones like Jericho and Santino? Hell even a new Jamie Noble and an updated RA MVP would have been great. Hooliganz in pink/green too. Oh well.
  

They really are expanding their different lines now, that's for sure. They might as well continue all the present ones until the end.

Looking forward to the interview(s) and the TF exclusive!
