I decided to swing by TRU after I got done helping my dad this afternoon to see if they got RA34.5 in yet. I walked in and found 2 full cases that were just shelved. I don't think there was a single figure missing. Anyway...I walked out with Batista & Jamie Noble. I was debating if I should get Cody or not but choose not to. Ok...let me first start by saying that the carding is awesome. I love the green. ;D So now that I got that out of the way onto the figures. Batista is pretty much perfect. Love the attire choice and his tats are very detailed. Some of the best tat work I've seen on a Batista figure that I've owned. The trunks are pretty much the style he wears now with the dragon design on the back and the silver/green color combo looks great. Scan is very good as well. Much better paint job on it then his RA31 fig which was the last Batista I owned. I can't find a whole lot wrong with this figure. Easily one of the best Batista figs out there. 10/10 on this one. As far as Noble goes another solid figure. It is a little outdated now that he's back to wearing full tights but that doesn't bother me much. I'm just glad we finally got an updated Noble & I'm pretty sure unless he gets a pretty big push this will be the last Noble we see. Attire even though a bit outdated like I said, is very well done. Love that they put the Double Tough in big font on the back instead of having it real small. Great detail on the boots as well. Only downfall is I wish they would have given him a new scan as this one is like 5 years old...but it still works for him cause his look hasn't changed. All in all another great figure from Jakks. Gonna have to give it a 9/10. Would get a 10/10 if they gave him a new scan. Anyway...here are some pics of Batista & Noble for those that care. Enjoy!       |

This thread has made me kinda want both figures. I saw them in a shop at the weekend and thought "nah..." but now I don't know... I might get the Noble at least.

Great pickups. I need that Batista... ^^
Did you happen to see if they got a new shipment in of RA 34? I am looking all over for Mickie James...I found her at Target in Grand Chute, but since Target raised the prices to 12.99, I didn't get her.

Both look excellent. I feel odd saying this, but I'll have to get Cody, Noble & Batista. I feel odd saying it because I usually tend to only buy two figures per RA set at once. I hate dropping nearly $30 at once on three figures, but screw it, when I find this set all 3 will be mine. Thanks for the crystal clear detailed pics.

Then again I didn't look that hard. I did see a few Nunzio & Funaki up front but didn't dig. I've never seen Mickie at retail. I've only found Lilian at TRU. I got my Mickie from TRU.com. |

I have seen both there before. I bought a Lilian and passed on Mickie because one, I didn't have enough money, and two, there were some spots of paint missing. Right now, i am hoping that Walmart gets them in, since the one of the east side of Appleton just got RA 31 in recently. Thanks for letting me know though. |

They stocked a lot of RA 34 recently and have them on sale. |

I don't think the one at the outlet mall in Oshkosh is there anymore. And if it is it isn't an actual KB. It's a KB Outlet store so they aren't going to have anything new. I haven't been down that way in a while so I'm not 100% sure but I'm pretty sure it's gone. |

Really hope to find Noble soon. Sucks that we finally get a figure of him in trunks and he is back to wearing tights.

As expected, great pics. Batistas attire is very nice. I may have bought noble if he had a new scan but i dont feel like spending money on him when i have his older RAs which dont bother me.

There are a few figs from this series I might get, but I'm waiting to see if KB gets them in by the end of the month, since they've got that whole 2 for 15 thing going and I have 10 bonus bucks.
