Edge looks fine. Shawn & Batista, pass. The women look pretty lifelike (plastic, hyuk). Kennedy looks like Billy Gunn. Matt looks good. I like this head shot better than his usual yodeling face models. I'll get my hands on Matt's figure if I can.
I'm thinking Batista would be mad that all of the other guys also get the same vein-popping, roided-up arms that he worked so hard .. err ... paid so much .. umm ... that he gets an unending push with.
The Kennedy one, I actually thought it was Chuck Palumbo. From his "Billy & Chuck" days.

Really? I thought it was Mickie James (at least facially and the hair).

I didn't recognize her as being Candace until I looked at the pants they gave her. They are so totally in her style.
I'm not up on action figures, but it seems like it would be odd to have an actual match with them given their facial expressions and body setup. Are the joints easily moveable?

Maybe it's just me, but for a second, I thought he was the Rock.
It ain't just you.

Are you crazy? The Edge one is PERFECT with that evil smirk. It captures his on-air personality perfectly and, from my point of view, made him easily the most recognizable of the bunch.
And count me as one of those confused by Candice/Mickey. Facially I don't think it really resembles either of them, unless it's part of a new "Amalgam" line of WWE action figures (featuring The BoogeyTaker, Meff Hardy, Cody Orton, John Cetista, and the pictured Candey).

I like the rest of them though, pretty detailed.
Are you kidding? It almost looks like a still of Edge with a plastic body. Uncanny.
I'm no help on the Mickey/Candice figure. They both dress that way now, but Mickey just started that look - it's a more familar look for Candice.
I agree that the Edge one is the best as far as resemblence goes. Action figures-and their faces- have come a long way since the late 70s. I could only tell it was Han Solo by the black vest.
