So is Gonzalez supposed to be wearing a skintight buff suit or is the definition supposed to be painted on? I'm not too familiar with him. It looks like crapeither way.

I loved the protos so i went ahead and pre-ordered 5 figures from the set. Now that i'm seeing what the MOC figures look like i want to cancel my pre-order. Anyone know if RSC lets you cancel? Vince McMahon is decent, i would ahve chose a different head sculpt and a different attire but other than that i'm ok with it. Giant Gonzalez is good, paint doesnt look as good as on the proto but thats to be as expected. I'm tired of the bell accessory. Barbarian & Warlord look good but i would have liked for them to have real tassels on their arm bands and they should have came with their entrance gear. The accessories for them albsolutely blow... why are they still using stuff from 1997? Thats so unbelievably lazy and pathetic. Sid is my biggest disappointment. The proto looked great, but the MOC figures head is huge, why is he not wearing any kneepads? The painted elbow pad looks ing awful, i wish they would have just put on a regular elbow pad on instead. The Ultimate Warrior is my favorite in the series, i absolutely love this figure but i wish we could get a different head sculpt. Xpac looks good but why use the ripped arms when they werent used on the 123 Kid figure? |

Powers of Pain Warrior and HBK will be who I pick up. Its the boots that does it mate. Just needs a fixup longer boots (Bigshows) and white trim and oh yeah JAKKS KNEE PADS !!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone happy they didn't use the new torso on Xpac like the protos shown. Also anyone notices they used the new Batista boot mold for the Barb & Warl |

If I see them I'll buy Gonzales and the Powers of Pain. The rest are terrible, they are at least decent.

quite a disappointing set for me.
sid looks very disappointing, the headscan just looks terrible. what the hell kind of sculptors are working at jakks?! and theres no kneepads, painted elbow pad and yet again we see the ill-fitting old TTL vest
also i was hoping for a new headscan for x-pac, not the old TTL one, plus the singlet looks wrong and the arms are too big.
also, YET AGAIN, I notice absolutely NO new accessories with anyone...
the rest don't interest me, we need more attitude era and WCW/nWo guys in CS..

Sid is a huge disappointment. Not even knee pads on the figure. I like the "Rocky" boot mold, but just not on Sid. He wore tall military boots. Still don't like the painted elbow supporter. Why not just use the DA elbow pads?
I've been wanting an announcer version of McMahon since CS started, so I'm thankful for pre-ordering one. I might even get another to make a custom, because the head sculpt looks so much like Vince Sr. Warrior is a must-buy. I'll make a Warrior/Honky SummerSlam '88 display.
I wanted a CS X-Pac, but it matches the TTL one. So, I'm going to pass. I might pick up the Powers of Pain and Giant Gonzalez if I see them in stores.

Very dissapointed with MOC pics. Was kinda looking forward for MOC pics to see
if they kept them like the proto or improved them but guess not.
Ill just get warrior, really like it. Simple but like the color scheme.
Ill see how GG looks in person.

Vince Mcmahon is great apart from the googly eye. Still the best Vince released. Good to see they have the old WWF logo on his jacket too. Not really too much t compalin about. Gonzales looks better than the toyfair and proto images and he's probably one of the few I'll get. I doubt he's any bigger than Khali which sucks, but nonetheless I suppose it was worth the 4 month wait. The headscan is great and so is the attire. The only annoying thing is that they removed the ing nipples!!!! Barbarian looks cool, but along with the Warlord they just look like LOD with beards and weird attires. The accessories looks awful. Warlord is pretty much the same as Barbarian really, even though I like this one better. The LJN HBK is the worst of the whole set IMO mainly because he doesnt look remotely like Michaels and also the fact that I hate LJNs. Psycho Sid looks crap too. Mainly because he is kneepadless. And whatever that thing on his arm is even if he did wear it looks crappy. Warrior is cool. The chosen attire looks good but it reminds me of the Dingo Warrior so yeah. It's one of my favourites they've released. X Pac is clearly the best of all. I'll probably pick him up. The only bad thing is that the European title looks crap unpainted. Hopefully the bandanna is removable although it probably isnt. |

OMG, they did it! They officially f*cked up Sid! I knew they would. Jakks, you are officially retards. They have done the exact same thing they did with CS 14 Rick Martel by mixing up eras, but then have gone one better and left off the kneepads too. It's CS 9 Animal all over again! So they didn't really learn their lesson after all, did they? Couldn't they have left those pointless pads off the Barbarian and given them to Sid?
Psycho Sid on the box? Waistcoat? WWF title? It's a 1992 Sid Justice headscan for God's sake!
And Giant Gonzalez ended up a real turd too. How could they cheap out on his body design and think we wouldn't notice?!!!
I dunno about anyone else, but I think I just lost my passion for collecting. Jeremy is so full of sh*t when he says he reads our comments in order for the product to improve.
Time and time again they keep screwing us over, they obviously have no respect for the consumer or for the legacy of the wrestling business, so f*** them. I'm out. This really is the last straw for me. I'm gonna keep the figures I've bought up until now and I'm done buying any new ones.
It was a fun ride while it lasted, but I've officially stopped collecting, as of the exact moment I laid my eyes on that Sid figure.
