i though the cs was exempt from jakks "make a flawed figure so everybody will buy another when we make it right" tactics.

When I asked Jeremy about Flair having a green robe he said they'd try to work it in before the end of CS but no promises. I guess he forgot about this one? That Flair looks so  ing awesome. I seriously can't wait to get it. It'll look so perfect on my display. I have CS2 Flair in red w/ red robe up front, BOWCW purple Flair angled behind, CS9 blue Flair w/ blue robe in front, modern day black Flair angled behind, and now there's the spot for green Flair w/ green robe in front! This will make my collection look so killer. Thanks for the effort, Jakks. I always try to support you guys when you go the extra mile. Dynamite looks good but I'll wait since there's at least 2 more, probably 3 down the pipeline. It's gonna be hard to pass up that Rey. Even though he should have the other scan I really dig this attire now that I see it MOC. I never bought his classic representations in WCW/ECW so this one will probably be added to my collection. Well, at least people will be happy to see this Rock lacks wristbands. I never paid much attention to be honest but I know this was a nagging issue for some people. Totally a waste of a figure though. They could have at least gave him an older logo like his famous blue and white one. I knew the workout suit wasn't gonna happen. *sigh* Ron Simmons is an easy buy for me. I friggin' love it. Now that we have this one we definitely need a NOD Farooq. I consider that essential. And with D'lo signed as I've mentioned countless times before a NOD 3-pack with Farooq, Kama, and D'lo would be surreal. I like the Tony Atlas as well. Needs an accessory bad, though. Pretty good set. I plan on getting half of them which is way more than I usually get. Nice job overall, Jakks. |

Definately the worst set ever (same as all the last 5 sets) there is so little to these figures that they barely resemble the first 15 awesome CS series apart from the reused parts. There is so little detail, no accessories apart from Flair's robe (and the Flair figure is so boring that the robe is basically the whole figure)
Simmons is way too black but apart from that would be OK (although would've been considered the plain, boring, not worth the money figure if in previous sets before the quality drop)
Atlas looks great but the sheer lack of detail and no accessories makes it a definate non seller, figures of that standard usually retail for 1 or 2 pounds each, not 8 or 10.
Rock is a joke, not worth commenting other than it sums up CS20 perfectly.
Rey is pathetic, both the figure and the idea of him in CS, ditto for Cena (that has to be the worst LJN style figure so far, looks like a child made it)
BUT AT LEAST THEY FIXED DYNAMITE! (half) The head sculpt could still be anyone, it looks nothing like Dynamite Kid, but it looks like they sorted the legs so that he won't be taller than Davey Boy. The proto had the taller short boots without tongues, I think those have tongues which is great if I'm right. Also the upper legs look like the CW ones, the proto looked like it had the longer HW ones. I don't mind the scan being bad if the body is right or vice versa so at least there's one half decent figure in CS20.
It's extra cheap how most of the figures all have identical packaging too, Jakks try so hard to cut corners nowadays.

Definitely picking up Kid, Simmons, Atlas & most likely Misterio. After seeing Flair's robe, I may have to pick up him as well.

While I'm pleased that Flair has a robe at all, I'm disappointed that it's not the only green robe he wore: the peacock would have been a nice touch. Instead, they gave us the previous red robe in green.  I wanted this green robe, too. I honestly don't remember him wearing a green robe like the one on the figure, but it's not like I remember every last robe he ever wore. Even if they cheaped out on the peacock, that style of robe with the gold trim would have been better. Still, I'm glad he has a robe. I'm sure, based on the proto, that they thought about releasing him naked (no robe). |

You can tell Flair's green robe is the same as CS2 just only in different colors. El cheapo.

i ordered the whole set, I am loving the Flair moc, never thought we would get a robe with this one.
Still annoyed with the Rock since I was really excited for the Samoan Tattoo and it never happened but maybe before the line ends we will see it.
