Look everybody it's the Moscow Mauler! The big bad WWE wrestler famous for... Well, I have no idea what he's famous for. He's got a belt, so that has to mean something, right? But is there more to Kozlov than meets the eye? Does he secretly possess the cosmic cube underneath his crazy Russian hat? Does he even really come with that cool Russian hat? Oh my god, you'll have to read the review to find out. Infinite Hollywood: Mattel WWE Elite Wave 5 Kozlov Review Spoiler alert: No.

i think u were a bit too harsh on Kozlov in this review but I do like ur reviews. What I like about them the most is that u give an honest opinion on the figures. A lot of reviews I see just tell u who the figure is, what it comes with, and where u can buy it. For example, the RSC insider videos are great but there is no actual opinion in the video. after watching them I still have no idea whether or not I want the figure.

I would say a 6/10 would be fair.
The expression on his face, while silly for a figure on display, is one he often made during matches. Something else that annoyed me is that they painted the inside of his mouth black - the same odd thing they did with 2-pack Piper. I ended up painting his mouth a more natural pinkish color which made the head sculpt a little less cartoony.
Kozlov was billed at 6'8" but on TV Regal seemed to be as tall if not taller than him.
It's too bad they didn't sculpt actual shorts or give Kozlov more appropriate (Stone Cold Steve Austin style) boots.
Maybe it was copyright thing, I was hoping they would've put SAMBO down the white stripe of his shorts like they did on sleeves of the jacket.
First thing I thought after looking at the upper body and arms of Kozlov: they'd be perfect for a Mattel Hogan...

I have to agree that 6/10 is a good assessment. I have the figure myself along with his other 2. I use this one as a pre-ring Kozlov with his entrance gear. Unfortunately its ALL that it could ever be due to the stains. Thankfully the 2P5 Kozlov does the trick for a red gear Vlad. If it weren't for the staining ,I would give it a 7/10. I'm not as harsh on the scan. Its not great but its not completely inhuman as you insinuated. Lol. The figure has its uses though. I display series 2 Kozlov as his singles representation. 2P5 is displayed with Zeke of course. And this one I display with Elite 3 Santino. They actually look really good together. It helps me appreciate this figure more.

He's famous for going over Undertaker clean and getting a failed Main Event push.
