Nice to finally see these...RA style!!!!! (Where's Steiner? ?? I bet since he's not really with TNA anymore they took him out, that sucks....I don't think we will EVER get a Scott to match Rick from CS11) Sting - Looks pretty good, the attire is cool, scan is great. I just HATE that torso. Seriously. I hope he comes with a jacket or something similar. Hulk Hogan - Awesome. This is just about the only Hogan we've never got properly. I like it alot, definitley will pick that up Kurt Angle - Don't really get this one...there's nothing "Legendary" about it...I'm assuming Jakks cannot use any WWE likenesses then. Unless he comes with some really cool accessories I'll pass on this. Kevin Nash - Nice, scan looks good. I'm trying to figure out when he wore that attire. Jeff Jarrett - I kinda like it, it's the beginning. Again, I'm willing to bet they won't be able to use his WWE character likeness, so this is the best we'll get. Nice to see these for sure, I really... honestly... hope Jakks stops their cheap-ness, and actually gives these guys accessories/cloth jackets or whatever. They really need to go all out with this line or it will die a VERY slow death. out of these protos I'll definitley buy Sting & Hogan...the others will depend on the final product.

Pretty surprise these are RA. I would have thought they would stick with DA but I'm not complaining. I'm happy I can add more RA's to my collection.
As for the first series I'm happy we will get surfer sting and a good choice of attire. I wanted this attire or the GAB one. This is a must buy. As for the others, I like the Japan Hogan but I could easily make one to look like that using Hogan from the Rocky line. They better atleast give him a robe. I'll pass on Nash, JJ and Angle.

Very pleased that these are coming in RA form. Maybe Jakks will wake up and realize that there is still a market for that body style and begin to launch some current roster figures in RA style as well!

Well, they look so bare-boned and basic, but I know I will get them. They ARE RA, at least.

these look awful. Sting is the best looking one, but still not great. I dont know what it is, but they look cheap.

Nice to finally see these...RA style!!!!! (Where's Steiner? ?? I bet since he's not really with TNA anymore they took him out, that sucks....I don't think we will EVER get a Scott to match Rick from CS11) I'm thinking Jakks pulled him because he is not with TNA anymore. This 1st series seems to be all TNA contracted wrestlers. I'm sure Jakks didn't have the time to sign him to a legends contract in time to release him in this wave. Jakks has to be working on signing him to the line. This is a pretty mediocre offering for the debut wave. I'm hoping that Jakks will be diving deeper into the roster (and from the looks of the rumored signings, they will be) but I really don't like the era they chose for Angle and Nash. I'm sure they could have found some other "classic" era to use for them. I don't think WWE owns the rights to their costume designs (unless the gimmick was owned by WWE). I hope Jakks doesn't shoot themselves in the foot with the potential shelf warmers (IMO) of Angle and Nash. Jerrett also is a poorly executed figure with the attire they chose. Way too plain. I'm sure Jakks will be making more Jarretts but to try and get back retail support for their figures, they should have chosen a better attire to start off with. I don't think Jarrett's name alone will sell this figure. Overall though I understand Jakks' decisions on the line-up and attire choices but I just hope this first wave doesn't bomb and have a ripple effect on the (potentially great) future line-ups.

Stings tan is a weird color. If I get any it will be him and Nash.
Hogan is decent. No need for new scan.
Kurt angle should have been with hair. Even if they put a generic outfit that is similar too his wwe attire. A simple red white and blue outfit even if he's never worn it would do.
Nash is the attire I wanted. Because my favorite thing in tna history was the paparazzi stuff. The nash from that era will be epic too have with my current papparazzi rip off thing in my company.

Sting is mine!!!!
Ad Ichiban Hogan!!! I will most likely get that as well.
Jarrett is interesting, as it went back to his early days. If I get it though, I will likely fix it up to 90s style.
I have no real interest in Angle or Nash, but they do look good.

I love that Sting though Jarret kinda reminds me of Noddy Holder.

Well, they look so bare-boned and basic, but I know I will get them. They ARE RA, at least. Yeah, I feel the same way. I'll get them, but they are very underwhelming. I think the DA figures look MUCH better, these look really out-dated and plain. The Sting is pretty cool, we finally get surfer Sting, but I'm totally not blown away by these. I'm curious what other Legends figures we are gonna get, but I'm totally prepared to be disappointed.

I am shocked at how bad these look. I thought maybe Jakks might use some innovation, and have a completely new body type, but it looks like they are content at using one developed in 2001-2002.

Wow, I hate sounding negative but man this set really stinks. I was so looking forward to seeing great protos but typical Jakks letdowns. We need someone in marketing to listen to fans and collectors for once. Epic letdown. Sting- the only figure worth getting in this set Hogan- not to scale but headscan is pretty good Angle- looks like a reused RA Angle, bummer wanted hair Nash- Boring TNA look, hoped to get a WCW version, and not the right scale. Jarrett- Wow, biggest letdown of the whole set. I was hoping for a WWF Intercontinental version or WCW slapnuts NWO version but this? Where is this version from? Really lame looking. I'll get the Sting only because we've all been waiting so long for one in his Stingers days the rest of this set.........EPIC FAIL. And where is our Papa Pump Scott Steiner? Oops.
