I will definitely get Sunny and Mae Young.
Might get Kane, Venus, and Mabel.
I will pass on super fat Rikishi, yet another HTM, giant JR, the LJN Flair, and the utter letdown that is the "leather vest" Steve Austin. I knew Jakks would skip out on that.
I am really interested in the latest set of repaints. The CM Punk is cool looking, but I don't need him.

Stone Cold Steve Austin - disppointed. He should come out with Attitude Champion or Smoking Skull. Kane - Hope he will be tallest cuz they change his boots model. And I just notice there say "The Big Red Machine" after Kane which wasd cool Honky Tonk Man - Nothing special Jim Ross - He will be tallest, sadly Val Venis - Awesome Mabel - Meh! Ric Flair (LJN Style) - Not care Sunny - Not care Mae Young - Not care Rikishi - Where the cloths knee pads gone?
Will get Kane, Austin and Val Venis.
Rey Mysterio CM Punk Umaga Randy Orton Triple H (HHH) Batista
all of them just re-paint. Buyt will get CM punk and HHH

From CS18 Kane, JR, amd probably Austin and Mae are the only ones I will buy. I was thinking of getting Sunny and Rikishi but probably not since I will have to order online. Im pleased with most of CS18 but it does have a few flaws.
From PPV17 Rey and Punk are the ones to buy, they are gems!

They ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) ed up Punk real bad...they gave him the wrong accessory. I actually yelled out "WHERE'S THE COOKIE SHEET!?" when I saw that figure. ![:P](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/tongue.gif) Rey and Punk are awesome in PPV17. Trips is ruined by the scan and why they're starting to give Orton that heavyweight mold again I'll never know. I only plan on getting Venis and HTM from CS18, although I must admit that Kane is tempting. J.R. has the tall suit mold issue, Rikishi has the "who approves this crap before shipping?" issue, and the set is littered with missed opportunities. Sunny is good. Austin is okay but the TTL vest mold worn out its welcome back in 2004, let alone 2008.

I'm pretty disappointed with cs18. -Almost everyone is agreeing that they made rikishi too big. -Second, I thought jakks was making a ringmaster austin. That fig is far from ringmaster. Plus the plastic vest? Why not make a cloth vest? They gave honky tonk a cloth jumpsuit so I'm confused on this one. -Mabel looks too plain. Why not give him a cape/robe?
Maybe I'm expecting too much but I was hoping jakks would "step up" their game as "somebody" said in an interview. Hopefully cs19 will make up for this low quality set.

- Kane looks amazing and nice to see some detail in the fire extinguisher. - Austin looks great prett much same as WWE SZ exclusive except with no Smoking Skull belt and leather vest - HTM looks great and Jakks again did a great job on his jumpsuit. However I'm havign a hard time remember when he wore a white jumpsuit - Jim Ross came out as I expected, not bad. - King Mabel looks sweet. I wish Jakks had given him cloth pants. While I wasn't expecting one, a newer crown would've been nice. - LJN-style Ric Flair, meh, about what I expected. - Rikishi should've had a smaller body as he was never that big. Add in he has no knee pads makes this the worst of the lot. - Sunny's attire came out nicely. Definitely a great figure to pick up - Venis came out looking great. Glad they gave him the towel. I was surpised to see no IC belt. - Still waiting for final MOC of Mae Young

Loving the punk, Kish is way to big and Venis' hair should be darker

I'll be buying the Flair as a gift for a friend...otherwise I'll probably not touch this series.

Stone Cold Steve Austin why in the hell did he not come with a leather vest like we were told and no smokin skull title. This figure sucks ASS!
Kane not bad... should have been badd blood 97
Honky Tonk Man nice
Jim Ross paul bearer II?
Val Venis not bad
Mabel he should have had his crown not that lawler crown
Ric Flair (LJN Style) ok, but they changed it a bit
Rikishi way too fatt
I will get: Kane maybe Honky Tonk Man maybe Val Venis Mabel Ric Flair (LJN Style) Rikishi (and then customize him with a Wild Sam body

PPV17 - all - PASS no new stars, no new scans. doesn't interest me.
Kane - PASS - Awful. The head shape looks NOTHING like his real mask. Using an old TTL scan is VERY lazy. Should have got a brand new head, or at least the R3 head. And the singlet shape is totally wrong too. Very disappointing.
Austin - PASS - Very plain. I'm happy with my RA Austin. Can't believe they're STILL using that crappy vest mould from like 1999. Might have bought it if he'd got a new frowning headscan or new vest mould.
HTM - PASS - Not a fan, I'm happy with my CS14. We need more NEW stars and less repaints.
JR - GETTING - Great headscan, slightly plain attire choice. Also why did they use the long legs? Not a huge deal to me, but still a bad point. Still, nice to see more staff figures. I want Tony Schiavone and Referees!!
Mabel - PASS - I'm happy with my RA Viscera
Flair LJN - PASS - WASTE OF PLASTIC. WASTE OF CS SPOTS. LJNs were great back in the day, leave them there. Modern RAs are so much better.
Rikishi - GETTING - OK figure, but very disappointing. He needed the Umaga torso, he was never that fat. Jakks are so dumb sometimes. Also the headscan is too similiar to the TTL, should have been smirking instead. And no entrance skirt. Poor effort here. Disappointing, but I'll probably still get it.
Sunny - GETTING - would have preffered a more generic/non-team attire, but that's a minor point. Looks pretty good.
Val Venis - GETTING - great figure. can't think of any criticism.
Mae Young - PASS - not a fan of her.
Overall, a very average set. Val and Sunny are great, but the rest are disappointing. Not enough thought/planning went into this set.

The Rikishi and King Mabel should SWITCH body types, Rikishi was never that fat and Mabel was never that thin. It's the same exact mold. Ugh! What a huge letdown! The only figures I like are Kane from CS 18 and Mysterio from PPV 17. That Rikishi is just unacceptable. What a waste! Jakks totally dropped the ball on this series.
