Sorry to disappoint you, but it is a "homemade", custom 3-pack. This ebayer also has customs of Ricky Morton, K-Dogg, Mutoh, and others who are nowhere close to being produced as part of JAKKS Classic Series as of yet. They are some decent looking figures though.

Jakks hasn't even asked Jimmy for pix yet to even start making the doll.They send a "quarterly royalty report" every couple of months but still don't have their s*** together appearantly.Too bad cuz I'd really like to see a new doll of Jim & the boys. ( that set was pretty nice considering.Don't even get me started on the lawsuits that guy is beggin' for with the unlicense logos an tradmarks..)
 
Maybe you guys need to hassle Jakks and get the ball rollin' LOL Cool

Hey dollface!!! Someone from Jakks has to know about this? looks pretty official to me. I can almost guarantee that's how the box will look. I'm telling you, someone from jakks leaked this or  is trying to make some $$$$ on the side or something. Looks too "Jakks like" for me to think it's amateur-ish. This is done with alot of professional looking stuff.
 
I've sent COUNTLESS emails to Jakks regarding this set(and the 3 pack w/Stan) and didn't get an answer.
 
I'd be willing to bet if someone spoke to someone @ Jakks about this set, and brought it up to them, they'd act like they don't know what it is?

Stingmark,
I can assure you that the figures this person is selling are customs and not "leaks" by JAKKS employees. Go to the following website, http://wfigs.proboards48.com/index.cgi?board=Customs and you will see that customized wrestling figures are a tremendously big thing with collectors nowadays. Regardless of trademark/copyright issues, some of the cusoms featured on this site look like they just popped out of the toy factories from China. And yes, some customizers also make custom packaging for their figures as well.  
 
I don't mean to upset you or anything, I just don't want you wasting time driving all around or looking online for figures that simply have not been produced yet.
 
Thanks for your time,
MaskedSuperstarFan

You didnt upset me at all, these just look so official, you know? If Syn say's they're not out...then they aren't. I was just looking at them again and wondering why Jakks doesnt do anything to try to stop them? they're scary realistic, you know?
 
thanks for the help bud.
