Agreed on Taker and Hall for sure (though I would like to see Hall with the correct ponytail head on). Austin and Hogan look fine to me, though neither is a wrestler or figure I'd go out of my way to find. Thanks for sharing the images. The head at least makes it look like the right moment, but yeah I agree with the consensus, the lack of wash on the vest is bruuuuutal and kills the figure.

Completely get the nervousness around availability of this line and I am too as I will need and want all of them…but surely people are jumping the gun here, I thought it wasn’t due to be officially launched until April/Mania season? We’re not even half way through January. I think that normally has happened with Walmart Exclusives. I may be misremembering, but when RA started, didn't they trickle out at first, then after a month or so, they were 'officially' on the plan-o-gram? I said this elsewhere, but I am fully expecting this to be on the Wrestlemania display this year. I just hope these are easier to get than the previous sets, and hopefully the disappointment in these figures will help the hunt for these.

Someone needs to try SS HBK boots on this MNW Hall to see if we can at least salvage the body into a 2002 Summer Slam HBK.

These look bad. I was thinking of getting the Hall and Hogan if I found them but now I’ll just save myself the time and money it looks like. I’ll wait for my Dark Hogan with no mustache to be released someday

I have now gone from being excited for these to feeling like I have to reluctantly buy them. That Scott Hall gets worse every time I look at it and how have they given Taker a Torie Wilson body?

Guessing they couldn’t do the wash on the rubber vest. Hmm To our fellow customizers, is it tough to keep a wash on the rubber material? Might not be something easy for us to “fix”. Hey brother S, it’s relatively easy. Just add a blue that’s a little darker than the one on the vest. Then add a wash with a mid blue and dry wash with white or lighter shade of blue. You’re going to want to seal the vest with krylon or something similar. They were able to do a great execution on the Otis/Tucker jackets with the same stonewashed look. There's no reason they couldn't do the same for Hall.

Hall is way too skinny. The jacket is such a mismatch it looks after market.
Taker looks terrible - headscan is so off - all of the Taker's posted in this thread look terrible
Austin looks fairly good to be fair
Hogan - same as above really, headscan's not great.
Series 2 is weak sauce in terms of line up as well - such a shame, the MNW as a line could've produced some bangers.

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong. Didn’t one of the first Titan tron American bad ass Undertaker’s have a wash denim vest? Jakks 20 plus years ago was able to do it correctly but Mattel in 2024 can’t? To quote Hurricane Helms “Wassup wit dat!?”
