IMO its a great set one of the best CS sets jakks has put out and FAR FAR away from the worst CS set(CS3 9 & 10 are the worst 3 IMO)

ya know Im a hardcore CS collector and I have to agree this has to be the worst set ever...I'm really not excited about anything! CS 19 on the other hand could wind up being one of the better sets

CS 17 was one of the better sets in a while.

There has been worse, the idea was good, but the execution was terrible.

IMO its a great set one of the best CS sets jakks has put out and FAR FAR away from the worst CS set(CS3 9 & 10 are the worst 3 IMO) The first few really weren't that great, but I give them a pass for testing the waters so to speak. With the big names in that series 3, it sold very very well and is a reason why the line still exists today. I agree slightly on CS9, but CS 10 quite possibly could be their most consistent set, every figure looked dynamite even if those particular stars don't appeal to you. Still, they really screwed up on every figure in this set, generally they get at least one right, but the scales on almost everyone are inaccurate, the accessories or lack there of are crap and the attires they chose on half of them were bad.

What! Are you crazy? I've seen so many others sets that are complete shit. So, you're telling me you don't want Kane, SCSA, King Mable and the others?

Honestly I think the hole set is great. I'll be looking for all of them.

It's not the best but it certainly isn't the worst. I can't call it a disappointment though. I mean how can something be disappointing when that's what you expected anyway? This is exactly why I've lost my passion to collect and will only get a figure here or there.

Some people like the lineup and some people don't but in terms of how well the figures were made, it's by far the worst set overall.

Yeah, I will say it is the worst. I am only somewhat interested in half the series. There's nobody I am really psyched for. The only one I really want is Sunny and that is just so she can be the valet for my Candido custom.
Every other series has had someone I was really excited to get. Everyone but Sunny and Young are repaints or rereleases of wrestlers I already own. I got the CS 3-pack Kane and put a TTL head on him. I have a Viscera, Mabel is basically a gold Viscera. I have a TTL JR and since he just sits in a chair, why do I need a giant one with slightly more articulation? I don't need another HTM. I won't buy the Austin and reward Jakks for cheaping out yet again. I have the IE Val Venus, but I might buy this new one since it is that classic version. Rikishi was not as big as Yokozuna. And I don't collect the LJN's.

There has been worse, the idea was good, but the execution was terrible. That is absolutely how I feel. Rikishi alone kills this set, I have a feeling he'll be warming pegs with that extra large, inaccurate @$$.

It's a fine set... With the exception of Rikishi, I think some people are being overly fussy...

Rikishi is HORRIBLE, should use the new Umaga Torso and a new lower leg sculpt with kickpads.
Kane- Im still ok with. Dunno if i want these boots or the tall kickpad ones more though
SCSA- No big deal really. Wish i hadnt bought the SZ Austin now. But this figure is good
HTM- Simple repaint but GD that jumper is NICE...Ill buy it just for that
JR- If hes in the shorter mold then im fine. Love how they put him in Sooner colors as well
King Mabel- Best figure out of the group IMO, Very happy with this. The crown could have been better though. I think the CS7 Harley Race would look better with it.
Sunny- Looks like they changed the scan but ill still buy it
Val- i have the IE (which i like better) might get this in the group buy and just ebay it
Mae- dont see a MOC pic but will buy it just to be complete
LJN-Flair....Great fig just cause its Flair

I dont care who disagrees with me but for me personally, this is the best CS set yet. Ive never been more inclined to buy so many figures from a CS set and yes there are some flaws but honestly, they are about as rare as a cena fig in any lineups.
JR- sits behind a desk, legs dont matter Kane- great detail and good to see it was kept, hair looks a bit better, boots are ok too. Nice accessories Austin- is fine although the vest being rubber is a slight downfall, its better than having no IE though Mae- no problems to me Sunny- no problems to me Rikishi- looks a little disprportioned but I like it the more I see it. Kneepads issue is a downfall but nothing major HTM- looks nice with the white suit on Dont care about the LJN, Mabel or Venis
This for me is one of the better CS sets, my favourite at least.
