One reason I mainly collect both DA and RA is because, to me, according to different wrestlers, some wrestlers' best figures are in DA form while other wrestlers' figures generally look better in RA form.
An example would be Shawn Michaels. I think his best figure is DA12 because it has the right boots, hearts on the pants, a new scan. RA has been using the same scan forever, but hopefully it'll change soon.
I find Undertaker figures so far to be much better in RA form because of the ugly ass tongue scan of the DA Taker figs. However ... the new Taker we saw at Toyfair's scan looks better than any RA/DA scan we have and since the new RA Taker scan (the IE with Khali scan that we'll soon see on many Taker figures I'm sure), I am betting pretty soon most DA Takers will be be superior to most RA Taker's coming out.
Anyway just curious of your opinions of some wrestlers that have just been given more justice in either line. I find that overall I like more RA representations of wrestlers, but lately a lot of DA's are beginning to up the game and look better than alot of the RA counterparts like the new Taker coming out, the new MVP coming out and DA13 HHH for example.

i think that although Matt Hardy has had nice da attires the head scan isnt very likeable.im a huge Hardy mark and having him look like hes about to cry isnt really something i want

I think all DA's are better than RA's....something about actually being able to MOVE the figures arms and legs and actually have articulation.
RA's are like McFarlane statues....no playability whatsoever.

whether or not Jakks does it purposely, I believe they make certain guys in RA way too short so that the major collectors must by them in DA form as well. i.e., Undertaker, Jake, Rude, Batista, & Sandman.
I can't really say which ones I like better than others for a few reasons:
1) the "perfect" figures are few and far between especially in anyone form. I would love certain headscans, gear choices to be on DA's of the guys & the other way around too.
2) the price tag as well. $9 for a figure is already pretty expensive, but compared to $12 for a normal DA, $12 for a single CS & $15 for a CSDA, it becomes very frustrating.
3) there's waayy too many RA's as compared to DA's, so for me to like one guy better in one form I wouldn't be able to decide.

I like Rey figures much more in RA form mainly because of all the new realistic parts used. He looks crappy in DA form.

Orton looks awesome in da. Lashley was near perfect, but thats about it. In fact most Ras look better. Undertaker looks so bad in Da. Same with finlay, hes looks horrible in da form. I think DAs move alot better, as we all know, but they dont look that great about 85 percent of the time. Knee joints look terrible, body sizes dont have much differences between them with the exception of umaga. I think that really ruins many of them. Ra to me is the better looking figure. Dont forget, I display, not play. Articulation is not a factor for me.

Kenny Dykstra has the best DA attire Dykstra's head is better in DA....because it's easy to customize it into Owen Hart.
