Poor sets in my opinion. Everyone seems to be agreed on that though. Rikishi and Jim Ross both over-sized, just in different directions - Ross looks like he's about to out-grow the box! On another note tho, Rikishi looks like he has some kickpads on. They look like they just fit over the regular fattie boot mould and are made out of material of some sort...? AND, WHY THE F*CK DOES KANE'S BOX SAY - 'KANE, BIG RED MACHINE' ![???](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/huh.gif) !!! Did Bret Hart's say: Excellence of Execution, or Stone Cold's say: Texas Rattlesnake/Bionic Redneck.? For gods sake, who are the people who approve how these are finalised for production/retail. There must be at least ONE person at Jakks who has a passion for the product they are putting out on both terms of realism/accuracy etc. Which moron said, "Lets put, 'Kane, the Big Red Machine' on the side of his box - that'll look good!" Must admit, i never thought i'd say it, but Jakks, your product is getting poorer and poorer. Its not even a cost issue when you make Rikishi FATTER than in real life, it just doesn't even make sense...Its like putting a fat body mould on Nunzio, or Making MVP really really Black instead of Dark skinned...Oh wait a minute...They did that didn't they?! P*ss Poor.

from those 2 sets, all I'm gonna get is PPV17 Rey Mysterio....love that attire.
The rest of the figures they totally missed the boat on....and that set is not CLASSIC in hardly any way.

Am I the only one that thinks Jim Ross looks like a intellectually- disabled person?

That Stone Cold saddens me completely...All of CS18 does.

Rikishi ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) ing sucks. Very dissapointed with him, as I've been looking forward to an RA 'Kishi for a while. The PPV set is alright. I'll get Rey and Punk, and possibly HHH and Umaga

I'm glad the Austin turned out like it did. Had it turned out like the prototype, it would have been a slap in the face to all of us who bought the Shopzone exclusive. And I'm sure they chose the red lettering just so it would be somewhat different from the Hart/Austin set....

That Austin figure looks great! I'm happy to also see that JR was given the taller legs. With the short legs, he looks dis-proportioned. I'm upset to see how King Mabel turned out, with the generic crown and full-body paintjob.
I've got Sunny preordered, and will probably get Stone Cold and JR too.

CS #18 doesn't look too bad at all. However, that Rikishi looks awful. He's too damn big. It looks terrible. I hope Jakks fixes that up at some point. Out of PPV #17, I'll probably just get C.M. Punk.
