TNA Action Figure Review: Jeff Hardy (Series 5)

The Charismatic Enigma is no stronger to the store shelves where he normally keeps his high-flying ways, by flying off shelves! Jeff Hardy is one of the top sellers in all of pro-wrestling when it comes to merchandise regardless of the product, but that doesn’t mean the product is an actual good product to buy. So, let’s find out exactly if the figure should be added to you buy list.

TNA Action Figure Review: Rob Terry (Series 5)

The wrestling career for Rob Terry might not have been a long one for “The Freak”, but it’s definitely being worthwhile one. He is already a former TNA Global Champion, been apart of The British Invasion, and was even apart of Immortal for a short time. But, now you can bring Rob Terry to your home! Well, kind of… in action figure form as “The Freak” is slamming his way onto store shelves in a few weeks (could be there now!), but is Rob Terry a figure that is worth picking up? Let’s find out!

Let’s kick this off with the pros of the figure, which there are a good bit of. The figure is really well done with many of the correct, or as correct as they can be, parts being used. Jakks did a great job with the head scan, which is something that Jakks has been great with during the TNA Wrestling line. The fact that it also comes with the TNA Global/Television Championship is a major plus!

DVD Review: Immortal Forever?

It’s been under a year since the arrival of “Immortal” into TNA Wrestling, but TNA Wrestling has released their first DVD about the group. The DVD picks up with the announcement of Hulk Hogan joining TNA Wrestling and closees with Jeff Hardy’s fued with “The Icon” Sting. While the group of Immortal might not be as strong as it once was, it’s still a force to be reckoned with. Does the release live up to the greatness that is Hulk Hogan? Read my review of this two disc release, after the break to find out!

TNA Action Figure Review: Samoa Joe

It has been awhile since Jakks Pacific put a new figure series out on the market, but they might have hit a home-run with Deluxe iMPACT Series 5. In the next few articles, I will break down each figure’s pros and cons. I’m going to take a look at “The Samoan Submission Machine” Samoa Joe’s figure first right after the cut!

Samoa Joe is a good example of a wrestler that Jakks Pacific just can’t seem to get correct. When you look at Joe’s first figures (Deluxe iMPACT 1 and Cross The Line 1), you can tell that something went wrong with them (height, lack of articulation, etc) but Jakks is trying to get it correct in the next round, with a brand new Samoa Joe figure.

Who Needs Brand Recognition?!

The simple answer to that question is, TNA Wrestling. I, among others, have been under the impression that the change to “iMPACT Wrestling” was supposed to bring name/brand recognition to the company, yet hasn’t. This is a problem that TNA has struggled with since the inception of the company back in June of 2002. Why you may ask? It’s a pretty cut and dry answers, because everyone (media, companies, non-wrestling fans, etc) hear the words “pro-wrestling” or “pro-wrestler” and automatically think about World Wrestling Entertainment. It’s the same way when non-MMA fans hear “Mixed Martial Arts” or “MMA Fighter”, they think UFC. But, could this be just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to TNA?

DVD Review: Best of 2009

When you look back on great years in TNA Wrestling history, 2009 won’t be one of the first to pop into your mind but TNA still put out a DVD release highlighting the year. We saw the re-rise of “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles, the singing of Hulk Hogan, and many more moments. It truly was a year of ups and downs that concluded with two great pay-per-views of the year, but does DVD release really capture the best moments? Let’s find out as my review is right after the break.

DVD Review: The King of the Mountain

There is one man that we can all thank for TNA Wrestling and that man is, Jeff Jarrett. If it wasn’t for Jeff Jarrett we wouldn’t be here talking about TNA Wrestling and I wouldn’t still be a wrestling fan at this point. Jeff Jarrett has seen highs and lows inside along with outside of the ring. TNA released their first four disc set dedicated to Jeff Jarrett featuring a documentary and his best matches from the seven years of TNA Wrestling. My review is right after the break!

Size Matters

nullI have to admit for a collector I was pretty excited about the TNA Jakks figure line. My collection is not too extensive yet but I am sure it will be soon. Little things about figures can be annoying to collector’s though, and I think Jakks Pacific needs to pay better attention.

For starters the Legends of the Ring figure line was a great idea but really has fallen short of the mark. Probably the only two figures so far worth collecting are the Sting and Hulk Hogan figures. Considering the WWE has the rights to most of Hogan’s work, his work for New Japan had to be replicated. I for one feel Hulk Hogan’s best work was in Japan and this figure had great potential but of all things is too small. If you look at the Mick Foley figure it is bigger than both Sting and Hogan. Foley’s figure looks like Andre the Giant compared to the other two figures. Yes Mick Foley is big but not that big. The Sting figure is also bigger than Hogan.
