www.wrestlingfigs.com/inner2.php?id=24268&page_id=1I am surprised that I have not seen much banter about the new CM Punk Flash Back that was shown at RingSIde Fest. Personally I like the idea of getting an early career Punk and the ECW belt looks amazing (always appreciate a new belt), but this head scan really is a disappointment. Exclusive figures usually come with a premium price, which i get, limited run, usually great accessories, but I expect a decent head. This strange smile makes it look like the cover art of a stylized cartooned WWE Kids magazine cover. Anyways. Sound your opinion and if there is enough agreement perhaps the powers that be will take note.

Ehh It's Ok. It's Def. Not My Fav, Kinda looks like something from the WWE All-Stars Video Game, but hopefully they will tweak it or something. I'll Still Get it though Lol

I've seen a couple threads about it. People talking about the attire, people discussing how 'The head scan is bad for playing because he's smiling *cough*CENA*cough*'
But what I basically said was: it's for display. It's to fit on your shelf under 'ECW Debut' for your time line of Punk. I'd buy this and probably play and not be too bothered, but that's how I see it. A chapter.

I voted no. But I wouldn't buy it anyway since I already have all the Punks I want and I never watched a single ECW match.
EDIT: The fact that this question is even being asked should tell you something about the scan: It's odd at least

I selected yes just because it's so different. I don't dislike it. It will probably grow on us like a lot of scans have.

I don't like it, but I do think it somewhat fits his persona from the time.

I think it's terrible. Would rather grab an earlier Punk basic on the bay with the thinner face, better hair sculpt and head swap it

It's alright I guess, at least we're getting a figure of him in that era, that's all that matters to me.

I love the idea of it because it makes a nice change from the usual boring straight-faced ones, but the execution is a little off.

it could be one of those "better in person" scans.
a number of times ive seen a headscan on this site in a picture, prototype or real, and when ive actually got the figure in my hands it looks ALOT better

I think it looks great, but it seems a bit big to me.

I like it. I'm excited for this Flashback, which is more the exception than the rule for me personally.

I have to admit. The toothy grins in these pics do help. Hopefully they can clean it up a bit. I love the idea of it because it makes a nice change from the usual boring straight-faced ones, but the execution is a little off.

my only real gripe is that it looks too big. Like a Jakks head on a mattel body.
A 2007 CM Punk as a flashback.......kinda crazy. Considering his elite 1 is based on 2008.
at this rate we're going to get flashbacks of wrestlers that could've been in elite 1-3.
maybe in a couple years, I can get a flashback of Dolph Ziggler from HIAC 09

I dig it. It's something different than what we've got from him and when he first debuted, he did kind of have the fun/smiley thing going on.
