I've been looking since mid-Dec for these two sets and finally found them today at the Monroe NY Wal-Mart. Flair/Heenan/Hennig -   Bobby "The Brain" Heenan - (They gave him the fatter torso this time which actually makes him taller  )   "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig - (The DA head would have been a better choice)   "Nature Boy" Ric Flair - (they should have added a robe)   Comparison Pics - W/ CS6 Heenan -  W/ CS10 Perfect -  W/ CS2 Flair -  Snake/Davey Boy/Koko -   British Bulldog Davey boy Smith- (they gave him the larger torso and tongued boots this time)   Jake "the Snake" Roberts -(Much better torso this time, but the scrawny arms would have been a better choice)   Koko B Ware -(they gave him the tonge-less boots this time)   Comparison Pics - W/ CS7 Bulldog -  W/ CS6 Koko B Ware -  W/ CS3 Snake -  |

Great figures. That's the best Flair figure Jakks has ever released, I reckon. Shame it's lacking a robe, but you can easily use the one from CS2. You should switch his pervert hands with Bobby Heenan's, it would make sense for the both of 'em.

I really need to get both of those sets. The animals set look all round great, I agree about Jake's arms but the torso is a big improvement, I love the attires for all three of them. The only figure I don't like in the other set is the ridiculous Heenan, it's actually quite funny that all this time after the first over-sized Heenan Jakks now make an even bigger one. Flair looks really good, I really like that new hand mold now I see it properly in your pics - it should be good for Greco Roman knuckle lock poses. Hennig looks pretty good too with the logo on the back, he should've had the DA head though to be completely perfect.

I love the attention to detail they put into making Davey Boy. A little color in the braids, a nice tan, shorter boots, beefy torso. Very nice!

Thanks again for posting the detailed pics, PJ. Wow, I didn't know that the Flair has the new hand mold. Very awkward look.

i was at a few diff walmarts in iowa this week and man the stores are flooded with these glad i never paid the ebay prices I wish I hadn't given in and bought mine off ebay. I didn't pay an outrageous price, but it was above retain nonetheless . . . . Thing is, with my luck, if I hadn't bought a Flair set off the bay, I'd most likely never found one. Now that I did, I'll probably see them in droves like you spoke of . . . . |

Davey Boy is an awesome figure. Jake and Koko are OK, but thought they could have used a little bit more flashy attires. I'm not a fan of the other set at all. Heenan and Hennig look ridiculous. Flair doesn't look bad though.

Great pickups-as I just got the same ones too.....I noticed the the spider web on Jake's right side is NOT painted.....the same for both of mine.....slack paint job from Jakks, although I agree its a much better torso for Jake...wish the first Jake had this torso with the cobra tights.

They looks good PJ. I love that Flair. Any chance I could see a pic of that Flair with the RA 31 head? If you dont feel up to doing the headswap for the pic dont bother man, it's alright. Thanks

Great figures. That's the best Flair figure Jakks has ever released, I reckon. Really? It looks like one of the worst to me. They gave him his mid/late 90's WCW head scan instead of his early 90's one. It looks like he has some serious arthritis in his hands. And there is no robe. Overall, I don't think these sets are good. I'm glad to see Matilda but I don't want to pay $32-$33 for it. |
