Between this and the Steven Amell two week pre-order window, I'm glad to be giving the wallet a break on Brawler related purchases. The Scott Hall isn't bad, but given it was an NWO crate specifically and there were probably multiple other options they could have picked (outside of a personal saving to PWTs on existing Scott Hall tooling costs). Not sure if or when we get a late 90's red and black Kevin Nash to go with the similarly coloured Scott Hall that was released recently - a slight mod on the existing Macho Man could have been cool - even doing a reworked Syxx, or Bagwell would have been cool... Is what it is - it's not a bad brawler or addition to the range, just feel they could have had other options that would have continued what feels like a strong run of Brawler's releases recently.... I said something similar in the Crate thread. The Hall is cool in concept and done well, but part of me wishes it had been one of the other NWO guys instead, at the very least the WCW Nash we saw what feels like years ago at this point. Also, I don't think the two Halls share any tooling, so even there I don't think they saved anything. Just an odd decision.

Funny thing is they've shown a 1998 Nash fig but never released it. Wonder if they lost his figure rights? Can see it during the opening video here:

Can see it during the opening video here: It wouldn't be the first time they've sat on a Brawler for a long while. But yeah, it was shown in that video and has never been mentioned otherwise. Nash still has a PWT store, so time will tell.

He is $99.99 on Ebay. Thanks for sharing originalhuggies, as crush mentions above me, not quite the look or timeline that I, and I'm sure a lot of other WCW tragics are hoping for. Give me all red with "The Outsiders" in black across the torso, or predominant black attire with red highlights, stating "Nash". Produce either, and you'll have my coin

About $80 was rough but I went ahead and got a second set of the MJF/Cole set
I thought the Bucks would've been in a two pack,shouldn't matter I guess but its a little disappointing

Only other duo I have like that is the Headbangers and they were solo packaged, but the were MWFP exclusive.

None of the tag-teams (since they've changed from the bags to the packs) have been packaged separately.
The Bushwackers, The Nasty Boys, The Headbangers, The Major Bros, The IInspiration, The Acclaimed, The Splatter Bucks etc.

Only team I've gotten is the Acclaimed and tbh forgot they came separate until mentioned above. I just thought the tag teams would've came packaged together like some of the old ones in the bags. I guess its no big deal,just a personal preference
