Not saying this is perfect, by any means. But, I wish they would have focused on the individual Andre "eras." An older heavier Andre, and a younger svelte Andre. Maybe even came up with some new molds for one of their biggest legends. Just some thoughts, no disrespect to the MDT.

I wouldn't have chosen a torso quite so large, but also I find the rocker joint to be less visually appealing than an ab-crunch.
Hey, you gave him nipples which is aparrently a critical flaw of Mattel to be lacking according to the right person on here.

I love the head. I know what you were going for, and although my first choice would have been slim young Andre with a smiley scan and big hair I would have much rather had Mattel do the molded blue singlet 'dre than a straight up re-release with a half-assed wig leaving an anachronistic bloated young Andre with Paul Stanley hair and an outfit that he only wore once in 1972. One of the most important legends of all time deserved more respect. I hate to criticize your work, but the lower torso and thighs are a bit wide. Still though, that style of torso (Brodus style joint) is exactly what I would have chosen for a sculpted singlet 'dre.

Looks great for older Andre, but it's not the most flattering portrayal of him and the figures generally present a more idealised version of the wrestlers rather than the sad truth.

Looks like The Blob from X-Men. I prefer the legends Andre just the way he is.

The head sculpt really does look a lot better with a better paint job and muttonchops.

It's definitely on the right track. I think with thinner thighs and longer legs it'd make a big difference.

I think the mid section is too big. he was big but from his waist down he was slimmer than what you made. Decent effort but I dont remember andre looking that "fat".

The legs and torso are too fat, or the rest isn't fat enough. I don't know, either way not a fan. Mattel's is better.
