What Are YOUR Favourite Austin/Jericho Figures?

With the upcoming Broken Skull Sessions interview between Steve Austin & Chris Jericho airing on the WWE Network/Peacock, it got me thinking, what are the best figures of each guy? 

I was listening to the Pyramid Wrestling podcast before writing this and they were talking about the upcoming interview and that gave me the idea to write this piece and then the guys had their own discussion of both guys and their thoughts/memories on figures as it is a wrestling figure podcast, a very good one indeed so give them a listen, find them in the usual podcast places.

I am more concerned with their Mattel figures, but both had a number of JAKKS ones too and Jericho had maybe at least a couple before that while in WCW, yes, I had the infamous 'Lion Tamer' one which you can see pictured above. 

Let's go with Austin first, there's not too much you can do with Austin figures because he just wears the black trunks and boots but still, he's had a few variations, like the Mattel Hall of Fame one where he had the jean shorts or the Best of Attitude on where he had the full jeans on with different t-shirt, baseball cap, gold chain and blue strapped attitude era belt, and there was the Defining Moments one where again he has jeans on, Austin 3:16 shirt, baseball cap and a camouflage jacket.

He has the Ultimate Edition one on the horizon and I'm not sure it's blowing many people away, again, because it's Austin, in wrestling attire, there's not much you can do. Also, it doesn't help that it's being released in the same series of UE with an amazing looking Ric Flair.

I have a number of Mattel Austin's, as you can see in the picture but there are still more, I am looking for the All-Stars one and maybe the Ghostbusters one.

I still have some JAKKS ones too and when JAKKS was the only real good line to collect, I really liked the majority of his figures released by them. There was a great two pack released with him and Shawn Michaels based on their WM XIV match which was a great pack.

Onto Jericho, he has had many figures, his best was in the Mattel line for me, like Austin, he had a figure in the Best of Attitude Era line and that is an amazing figure. He had a figure in the original Entrance Great line, these figures were basics though and was based on his WWF debut from August in 1999. It had soft goods clothes on bust as I said in the column, I did on the Entrance Greats, they just didn't sit right, now I am basing this on images alone, I have never had the figure in hand, maybe if any of you have him you can let me know. 

Austin had two releases in the Defining Moment line but Jericho, just the one (pictured) and I believe it may have been the last DM in the line. Although it came with two belts, as it was based on the night he won both belts it comes across as a bit boring to me.

A real standout figure of Jericho's for me is his RSC exclusive one where he is decked out in sky blue based on his match with Michaels at WM XIX. Along with the WM XIX one and the Best of Attitude Era one, another I think is great is this one pictured, the 'You Just Made The List' figure which was a Gamestop/RSC exclusive, still not sure on that. It did get a release in the Elite line too but with an atrocious headscan that I had previously see used in the Lost Legends line.

With Jericho being in AEW now, hence the hype about the upcoming interview, he now is having a new line of figures, skin tone aside, his Wave 1 release from Jazzwares is an outstanding figure. He also had a chase figure and another one released in a special 'Little Bit of The Bubbly' set and i think he has another coming up in Wave 6.

So just a small piece guys, please give me your choices of what are your favourite figures from both these guys.
