well here is goes, im a huge ecw fan and been in search of a sabu. never once did i find a ra sabu but today my kmart has 3 da sabu's. i think the da scan looks more like him in his older age but wondering about scale and if im going to like da so much i will switch over but i dont want to. anyways can you guys give me some insight on da compared to ra please and would you buy it in this position.
i might very well just buy it to keep moc just in case.

yes buy lots of da . play better look better pose better.they have better scans and you can switch ra and da scans to see what you like best. plain and simple.

if you can get the parts, stick ra arms and head on your da sabu for the perfect look  |

Don't do it if you care about scale or the possibility of the figure breaking easily. There have been way too many complaints of DAs having extremely lose joints or flatly breaking fresh out of the package.
If you want to take your chances though, good luck.

Go for it, DA sabu is an awesome figure too so there will be no harm done.

Ya the DA Sabu is an awesome figure. I use him along with my RA's and I don't notice much of a difference, other than he kicks so much more a$$.

The Sabu DA is bigger than average RA's...

I didnt want to like DA either but now I only collect DAs I sort of felt the same way. Especially since I only started collecting again back in 2004 (RA's), I didn't want to make another transition to a different style so quick (DA). Turns out, after collecting all of the CSDA line, I found myself liking DA more than RA. I don't play with my figures anymore, but for articulation and posing ability, DA's are far superior to RA. I only have a few regular DA's, but I would say I'm more open to them if they ever became the number one line of wrestling figures in the future. |

I didnt want to like DA either but now I only collect DAs You know what...that is what happened to me. I was RA only and then i decided i would buy the KB DA 3-pack with RVD, Lashley and Sabu bc i wanted a flexible RVD to be abel to do split legged moonsaults and all his kicks and whatnot... WELL i got hooked and went out and got every DA i could to replace my RA guys and now i am DA only. they got me!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN! lol  |

Once RA stops, I stop collecting as much as I do now. I don't care enough about WWE to keep giving them money. I'm building my RA collection as big as I can, and then I'm done. Think about it- in Hasbro, TTL, LJN, etc., etc.- we will never see as many different superstars in any other form as we have/will in RA. And if we do, I don't want to spend the money re-buying them all. Guys like Goldberg, Mark Jindrak and Kenzo Suzuki may never make it to DA form. If they put certain classics in DA form, I wouldn't want to buy them again any way. But that's just me and my old age.
As far as DA's go, there isn't really anything wrong with them, and they aren't even really THAT much different than RA's. The way people complain and take sides on these boards, you'd think RA's were like Hasbros and DA's were like LJNs. But that's just not the case. Just a few extra joints here and there for better play. That's all DA is. (Makes you wonder if it's worth the few extra bucks or not)
So far I only own: Undertaker, Kane, Shawn Michaels, Kevin Thorn, John Cena, British Bulldog and Sabu in DA form. I bought 'Taker and Kane for scale with RA's, Shawn Michaels to do his sexay boy posing, Kevin Thorn because he's one of my favorites, Cena because he was my first, Bulldog for the scan and Sabu because I buy all Sabus (Though I won't get the KB 3 Pack DA one unless it goes on clearance) I really won't buy any more DA's unless they're on clearance (For $3, who could resist a DA Sandman?) or when Paul London, Brian Kendrick, Super Crazy (With a new scan!) or someone else I really like comes out. Otherwise, it's a no go for me. I thought about even buying the DA C.M. Punk, but passed so many times.
If you're going to buy a DA though, Sabu is a good one for your first. I think it's one of the best Sabu figures ever and definitely one of my favorite figures on a whole.

Try TRU for an RA/CS styled figure...they have the CS3-pack Cactus Jack/Sabu/Funk for $18...but if you can't find it at TRU WalMart.com still has that 3-Pack in stock for @28.88.

It's your preference, but I would recommend DAs over RAs.
