"I was reading an article the other day about the Mattel DC Universe Classics line. The writer sought out to determine how many sculpts were re-used throughout the DCUC collection.
They even contacted the DCUC designers (the Four Horseman) hoping they had a list themselves. They did not. However the designers were nice enough to provide the names they use for the different bodies. With this info, he basically just went through his figures and separated them into the categories that the designers use. I believe they were broken into Skinny/Small/Med/Large/Oversized MALE, Archer, Suit ........etc.
I thought it would be cool to do the same. So, I went through my collection and broke them up into body types. Of course i do not know the official names that the MDT use for the Elite sculpts. I made up the names myself. It would be beyond cool if MDT wants to chime in with some official body type names.-original post

- I can't really see whats under Mankinds shirt. I have a sneaking suspicion that he uses that George Animal Steele mold (who i don't have). I can tell he doesn't have the abs like Duggan tho.
- Thinking of calling Fat Hardy's mold Small 2.
- Thought about calling the new Kofi mold Small Ripped 2. I just don't see Mattel using that mold again for anyone.
- Not really happy with Big Zeke's label. Still not sure if the Elite 19 Brock uses this torso. So please tell me if u know.
- Again, don't know what to call Duggan or The Iron Sheiks molds.
- I toyed w/ the idea of making separate categories for some of the wrestlers in the Unique section. ie; Brodus as "Fat Singlet", Yoko as "Sumo" or Akeem as "Extra Fat". Didn't think it was a good idea ultimately
