So just picked up the new Rocky fig yesterday and love that they gave him a bigger torso. My question though is why didn't they give him bigger arms? They used the same arms as the other Rocky figures. Just wondering if Mattel has commented on this. I think the smaller arms take a little away from the fig IMO.

Probably one of the biggest problems was why they didn't switch out for bigger arms. Not sure if anything was said about it or not.

I wonder how the selection is for body parts is? Some of them make sense, but others are completely off. The biggest mistake in body parts in the entire Elite series line is Elite Ryback. Granted he is short in real life, but when I stand him next to Cena or Daniel Bryan, he looks off. The torso is the biggest flaw, it has a short V shaped torso. In real life he is wide thick. He has no traps in his figure.
I wonder if they do the selection for limbs and body parts on a computer program or if they try piecing them together in person as they are making each prototype? They would benefit a lot by slowing down and making a couple prototypes to compare and see which is better. Similar to the way technology companies have numerous protos of gadgets before they hit the market. I have no clue what the process is, but the limb selection has been a little wonky for awhile now, thats why I think The Rock came out a little off in his legs and arms.

The question I have is if they went out of their way to give him a different torso why half ass it? Rocky has huge arms and while I love the fig the arms do look small on him.

I've been saying that since we saw the protos. I love the fig but he needs the bigger arms.
