WCW Goldberg the better looking Nitro series not the bad one from Slam n Crunch
TNA Sting the one with the mask not the old WCW figure
and whoever has these figs could you tell me if the Goldberg is in scale with the TNA figs and if the TNA Sting fig is in scale with WWE RA Figs

dont have any pics but.......goldberg is a nice size for tna figs scale wise, and i have the sting with the mask, but it is only the old sting from toybiz wcw days. I think they are going to put the new sting (with coat) in a new series

Um....no?
TNA figs are NOT in scale with RA's, minus the new Joe/AJ pack.
They are too small, and even if tall enough, are way too skinny compared to ever a CW torso.

Okay I've cooled down now, but I just gotta know...
Why do you guys want pics of TNA figures compared with JAKKS WWE RA or DA figures?
Why do you want them to be the same scale?
Why? Maybe if you answer this question thats buging me, then maybe I'll post your pics you want....
Trade for a trade; info for pics!!!

Okay I've cooled down now, but I just gotta know... Why do you guys want pics of TNA figures compared with JAKKS WWE RA or DA figures? Why do you want them to be the same scale? Why? Maybe if you answer this question thats buging me, then maybe I'll post your pics you want.... Trade for a trade; info for pics!!! This has already been explained. Having TNA standing alongside WWE/WWF Classic Superstars is a dream come true. Some enterprising Figure Fed'er (I'm thinking of Mr. Nrrrg specifically) would be able to put together a better show than TNA or WWE could dream of. Think of it... An X Division of Paul London, Ultimo Dragon and Rey Mysterio along with AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels and Petey Williams... What about a Tag Division of LOD, Demolition, The Dudley Boyz, The James Gang, The Hart Foundation... A Hardcore Division with Raven, Sabu, Abyss as well as Tommy Dreamer, Terry Funk and Mick Foley... Plus, I think people want to expand their figure collections as much as possible. I don't know of anyone that came in because of TNA, and if they did, that's a very small minority of the overall number of customers that buy wrestling toys. Now, you've got your Jakks figures and you've got your TB figures. Can you have a match with them? Can you display them together that they look decent? No and no, not in my opinion. Now you have to choose between Jakks and TNA. With the distribution problem TB has, getting maybe four series a year, four wrestlers per series... that makes for a damn limited roster, doesn't it? Unless you go to eBay. "Why would you go to eBay?" you ask... Do you know why we have figures in the current scale? Was it because TB did extensive marketing research and found that wrestling fans wanted smaller figures? No. They did it because they are CHEAP. Yes, I said it. CHEAP! Did you know that the first Abyss figure was originally a WCW Hulk Hogan from 1998? That wasn't the only recycle, but that's one that sticks out. I believe series one Jarrett was the same as WCW TNT Jarrett, only with a new head. Later, they recycled Marvel Legends parts into TNA figures with new heads. So, if you wanted to branch out with your figure federation or collection while waiting MONTHS for new product, you could just go for TB WCW figs off eBay. Now, yes, I fully realize that Jakks is just as bad if not worse about recycling parts for their WWE line, but at least when they do a new character we can reasonably assume it will fit in just fine with the rest of the collection of RAs. It may be missing details, which sucks, but at least the general asthetic will remain. Juvi, for instance, might have been missing a tat or two, but he wouldn't have been shorter than Rey Mysterio. People want their toys to fit together. I keep going back to the Marvel and DC Comics figures. Same basic scale, same basic asthetics... they LOOK like they were meant to go together, even though it's competing properties. You can't say that about TNA and WWE figs, much to the deteriment of Toy Biz's bottom line. If anyone asks why TB should have to fit with Jakks and not the other way around, let me put it this way: Jakks has been doing RA style figures for four years, covering everyone from Bruno Sammartino to Edge and almost everyone in between. TB has had the TNA license for Two years and has done, what... less than 30 guys? Do the math. |
