So after watching the Steve Austin Podcast, I started to have a look back on Edge & Christian figures to realise that actually during the RA/DA line they never had a decent 2 pack or singular classic E&C figures made?!
How did this get looked over?!
Has anyone made any decent customs or have any wish list Edge & Chrsitian they would like to share?

We were supposed to get Edge & Christian in one of the later series of Classic Superstars in Brood attire however the line didn't last long enough for them to be released (this, and Jakks pretty much gave up on WWE figures.) I did start on a 2001 RA Edge custom however I never finished it because I lost the interest in collecting. To my knowledge PPV 6 (Bad Blood) Edge is the closest RA style Edge you'll get to the E&C days. Here's the head I planned to swap out. I also painted his white/blue/black wrist tape, added tall black kickpads with the 'EDGE' logo and changed the torso but I don't have pics of that, sorry.  |

They technically released this during the RA era, but they're both TTL figures.  Problem was Christian spent half the RA era in TNA, so when he finally came back they only had time to do his modern ECW look (with a CS figure planned that got canned). |

I completely forgot about the WM Recall 2-packs. That was a very odd set as there were 3 TTL figures & 3 RA-style figures lol.
WM19 Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar (Both RA)
WM14 HBK (RA) vs. Steve Austin (TTL)
WM16 Edge & Christian (Both TTL)
Back onto topic, I think the only long haired Christian scan that could fit on the RA style body without being modified was the Final Count (finishing moves style figure) with Test I believe. I remember seeing a great 2001 RA Christian custom with that head on here years ago.

hbkbigdaddycool they didn't unfortunately. Up until now I thought the only R-3 2-packs were the NWO & WrestleMania X8 sets however I found this on google, I had no idea about the Unchained Fury R-3 2packs:

That UF Christian is one of the best R3 figures. So much detail - you could pair him with the white R3 Edge from the same set and get a pretty close representation of an R3 classic E&C:  |

Edge got a 1 of 3000 toyfare exclusive classic figure along with a 3-pack classic with Cena and Show. When Christian came back to WWE in 2009 he got a late RA release but never got a classic.

Would love to see a 3 pack of the brood. One of my favourite teams from the attitude era

I always laugh when I see that Jericho scan cause someone once said "It looks like a TTL Steve Austin with a wig glued to it."

Ringside sold that Jericho/Christian set for like $3 on card at one point. I picked up a spare.
