Best 2003 Big Show?

[cordless2016]

Just looking for thoughts on the best 2003 era Big Show Jakks produced (single strap, handle bar mustache).

From what I can find, it looks like they skipped over that version entirely. You have the 2002 version with the double straps, and then the next new release seems to be 2004 bald.

There was never a 2003 big show with a handle bar mustache made. There were some random single strap (R3 body) big show's made in the RA era, the primary one I can think of is a Treacherous Trios set (the one with Angle and an awesome Eddie in aqua blue with his forearm tattoo).


Everything after that was bald or from his 2006 ECW run (AD 21, various RA's like RA 24, DA 5?). Outside of the classic series with removable pants and shirt (to represent his debut), they haven't ever made a real scan big show in pants with a singlet like he wore in 2003 (DS 3 is non-real scan with a ponytail, handlebar mustache, jeans and a singlet). TTL 12 is good but has 2 straps, no tattoo, and trunks v. biker shorts.

The Only RA that has biker shorts and the removable single strap singlet is the bald Wm 25 CS 3-pack with Cena & Edge.

You're either going to have to do some part swaps or painting/sanding.

There's a single Treacherous Trios (TRU exclusive) that was R3 and produced in 2005. It used the CS 6 Andre torso that was released between the repacking of the R3 big shows from 2003-2005, but prior to RA 15 big show (first bald big show) being released in September 2005.

Really? Wow!

I think this one is the closest

They did some shows in the gear you want but the head scans were just the R3 one and the bald one next. I think he only had like 8 head scans in the entire jakks run if you count TTL and CS

Thanks everyone. I had a hard time finding one and thanks for confirming they skipped this version. Guess I’ll have to part swap.

The closest you're going to get is with a DA Big Show. Even then, he doesnt have the handlebar stache. Jakks never gave him an accurate singlet until the end of the line, other than the DA version. Every one before that had the Andre style singlet.

I was just coming here to post that. My pal had that figure and from what I remember it was the only single strap Big Show I can remember from that era of figures. As said, the Classic 6 R3 Andre with one strap was used for a big show but I wasn’t sure what series. I don’t remember if it did have the moustache but I’ll take your word on it. It very well could have.
