In my quest to complete the 1/100 collection, I added this to the party today. Signed 1/100 Terry Funk, a figure I've never owned and just so happy to have had the chance to get it. That leaves me 5 to get, with just the Bobby Heenan & Warrior Classic to get along with the UF 'Taker, Vinyl Piper & Hornswoggle for a complete set! It's been an expensive journey but I'm nearing the end of it and I couldn't be more happy to have went for these.

Still one of my favourite CS figures ever! Congratulations!
I really wish they gave us this at retail or at the very least a non bloody version, I would love to open it but I couldn’t Bring myself to open a 1/100 signed one.

Great figure, and great collection by the sound of it. Have you got a picture of all the classic 1/100s together?

What a great get! Surprisingly, a lot of these Jakks figures still hold up to this day.

I know I’m probably in the minority now just due to how well the Mattel figures are made, and how popular they are. But I’m a Jakks guy through and through so these are my favourite to collect.

You're not alone trust me! I just got off my huge Jakks binge of recollecting the figures I always wanted to have, along with replacing some lost ones from my childhood. Might get back into it soon. There is just something about them that makes them so unique.

There is just something about them that makes them so unique. You’re absolutely right, there’s so many Jakks figures that hold sentimental feelings for me, that’s what makes them so special. I was a kid when I was playing with figures and there’s so many I had that I’ve wanted to get as an adult collector. Being an adult collecting Mattel’s, they don’t hold the same meaning or feelings to me. Yeah they’re cool to collect but I’m a sucker for nostalgia and a lot of the figures I own now are figures I’d never have owned as a kid. I mean, I found it hard enough saving up for Ruthless Aggression figures when I was young, and they were like £7.99!! As an adult it’s taken a lot of time, money and patience to get figures like this, I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s so rewarding and when I’ve got my complete collection that I’m focusing on it’ll be so satisfying.

I used to day dream about this figure when I was younger. I still dream about it. Would be a great RSC exclusive in elite form!

Wasn't there only like 5 or 10 that weren't signed? Like the people actively had to not want theirs signed.

The Toyfair that this was given out at, Funk was signing at it. That's why do many are signed. I would have preferred a signed one as I just don't see Terry Funk making the trip to Scotland any time soon 😂
