If you want to swap the shoulders you have to crack the torso. (there's a guide on PG 1 of the fixup thread) but I left the shoulders on mine and just swapped from the upper arm down. Any chance you can post a pic of yours? I will take some tomorrow

I hope they make a basic. I feel the Wade Barrett Body looks better in Basic than in Elite.

Can't really disagree with the points made about the figure, but I still like it. I guess I noticed something was off but nothing specific before I saw this thread. What are the chances of getting different colors in the same look? I would have gone with black or green but I just accepted purple when it was announced because I was happy we were getting him at all.

We finally got a Razor Ramon...can we just thank the Gods and not rip it to shreds?
It's a solid fig. At least they didn't use a Hunico body like they did with the Signature Series Ambrose.

Razor's attire looks like the correct shade in some photos, and incorrect in others.

i hear ya on Razor being too short. I guess, he's supposed to be as tall as Rock...but it seems he's a tad short compared to him in figure form...Looks like the prototype went with Undertaker arms...then switched up to the regular heavyweight (Austin) arms. But yeah, i feel you guys about the purple. Again, prototype to final product didn't go well, i guess. I'd be cool with the E23/SS14 Taker purple (or violet). I'll take it for now...not gonna bother repainting it. lol My big problem is the lips being drawn on in what kinda looks like orange. I can understand why they did it that way though...
With that said, still looks cool. I love how they mastered his trademark "grease ball" mullet with the four curly locks in the back. My guess again, is that this is early 1996 Razor. Hope to get another one later...with a better build....and green or teal gear. Or that yellow/black gear with the "Bad Guy" vest. (Possibly snarling scan)

Any chance you can post a pic of yours? Look back in the thread (bottom of page 3, I believe), I posted pics with just the arms swapped at the biceps, before I cracked the torso and swapped the shoulders. When I think of Razor, I always picture him in his green attire, don't know why. I would have loved that version, but I'm not against his purple gear. It's just the wrong shade. But whatever, I'm happier now that he has bigger arms.

It definitely has some flaws but I'll still pick it up.

Any chance you can post a pic of yours? Razor Ramon Arm Swap -Height Comparison - it is about right. he's shorter than Nash/Taker/Kane, but taller than guys like Triple H and shorter.

Any chance you can post a pic of yours? Razor Ramon Arm Swap -May I ask you which arms you used? BOPPV Bret could be good but i'd like to know your formula.

May I ask you which arms you used? BOPPV Bret could be good but i'd like to know your formula. E30 Hawk's. His are closer to Razor's skin tone than Bret's. I then gave Hawk an extra pair of Triple He's.

I agree he's a little on the small side. legs, arms. Hall was a big dude.

I didn't say the figure was short. I said it was shorter than my Rocky Maivia. If anyone has a rocky maivia, stand him face to face with razor and they'll know what I'm talking about.

So Mattel "dropped the ball", on this figure... now there's a novelty. While this company may do a lot of things right, it also does a hell of a lot of things wrong. As far as them getting the colour of his attire wrong... well, on past evidence, let's just say colouring is not their strong suit.

im more annoyed at the fact we are paying $25-$30 for what amounts to an Elite flashback. one who was a SERIOUS Jakks peg warmer a few years ago
it's a great figure. i'm gonna buy it. but don't tell me that anything about it warrants a $25-$30 price tag.

I love the pics of the figure, but I would agree that it should have just been a flashback in the elite line. Now, had it been from the ladder match against shawn, and included an appropriately colored ladder, 2 IC belts, Necklaces, and maybe a cloth vest (warranted that it looked right) then yes, I'd consider that a good DM. I think it's a DM for the sake of the figure finally happening and trying to fetch a higher price for it. I honestly don't care all that much because I look at it 2 ways...1 we finally have Razor, and 2 if it means helping to continue the DM line and helps us get more legends then I'm all for it
