Hey guys,
I received the one item I purchased from the second go-around of the RSC 4th of July sale today and I thought I would share some pictures and comments with everyone.
This would be the first Deluxe Classic 2-pack including both Matt and Jeff Hardy in their late 90s Brood attires. Here is a reference pic for those not aware of this particular look:

Using the discount code, it only cost about $33-34 shipped, and I believe it was well worth it.
Worth noting that the back carding states Jeff Hardy debuted in 1993 while Matt Hardy debuted in 1998. That isn't factually correct, as both were working as jobbers throughout the mid-90s with the WWF, but weren't signed under official contracts until 1998. So, as odd as it might be to consider, Matt and Jeff Hardy are long-time veterans with the company, even though it feels like just yesterday they debuted.

And, two more group shots:
Just a few notes:
-Matt and Jeff's armbands are still detailed underneath their elbow pads.
-The white coloring of the laces goes all the way up underneath their pants.
-There is no coloring or added detail to the pants pockets of either.
-Jeff is clean shaven, which I don't believe is accurate for the time.
-Jeff only has orange-colored streaks on the left and right sides of his hair.
-Also, despite what others may think, the Matt Hardy scan is a winner in my book, and looks so much better than if they had used a current Hardy scan on this figure.
Overall, both figures are excellent with only a few minor lacking details. The final product shirts actually look better than the prototype, which doesn't happen too often. It is unfortunate that the tag team title belts were not colored, but not a big deal for me.
Whether you are a Hardyz fan, DA fan, or CSDA fan, I would recommend buying this set as it represents Matt and Jeff Hardy accurately for the most part, and comes with the appropriate accessories.
Thanks for looking, and I hope you enjoyed the pics.
