Mattel used the same pants for Dean, Seth, and Roman, so they I'd imagine that's why Shield Ambrose is a little taller.

That's because it's really Hunico, wearing a latex Dean Ambrose mask.

Ok nevermind then I missed that info with everyone posting there "look at the 2-3 figures i bought today" posts flooding this forum. You can delete this thread or i can. No offense but one of the points of a Mattel forum is to show off Mattel figs...

Yes and then when dudes like me can't find relevant info that i might want to know about because almost every thread is about someone posting another thread about the 3 new figures they bought from the previous month it gets a little annoying. I don't waste my time with that because i have better things to do. If i find new wwe mattel merch, i post about it in the forum findings here: forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/280988/official-wisconsin-findings-thread?page=21

Wow that's kinda silly. So which figure of the three is actually at the correct scale? Perhaps compare it to some other Mattel figures who are supposed to be 6'4" The Shield attire figures. The Jean Ambrose is just a repainted Hunico with a Dean head. Mattel is starting to become Jakks

Yeah, it's pretty embarrassing looking... along with one of the worst scans in recent memory.

It was a way to get a current look Ambrose pushed out quickly I guess..

Mattel should have just waited on this figure and done it right they didn't rush with a new rollins or reigns(even tho its not much of an update) and they look awesome

Are the headscans on the first two Ambroses there the same or slightly different? I can't quite figure it out...

This hobby gets a lot less expensive when you practice patience. This was always a rushed figure, the best were yet to come right around the corner. The Elite coming out - and even the Basic with the new jeans mold - will do a much better job capturing Ambrose. That Elite is going to be fantastic with the final shirt and kendo stick accessory.

Are the Batista basics shorter than E33 ?

It's pretty lame, kind of like a Mattel-made custom figure.
But it also seems to be the best selling of that Signature Series.

No offense but one of the points of a Mattel forum is to show off Mattel figs... Yes, but you see multiple DM Hogan etc threads compared to a thread thats informative like this one. Its ironic thats not considered spam.

Its ironic thats not considered spam. Again though this is a Mattel toy forum. There's times we don't get new info for months. Should there be one thread for each series? I think so but there arnt. Unless the mods change that I don't see a problem with people posting there findings.

I don't get why Mattel bothers to release figures they KNOW aren't anywhere near accurate. Are they obligated to release certain superstars at certain times? Between this, Rosa Mendes, The Rock (and his many inaccurate torsos) and Batista (all of these are off the top of my head btw), I have no clue who'd buy these things knowing a better one is on the way -- even when they announce it ahead of time.
I usually wait. Rarely does Mattel knock it out of the park for and updated look or debut figure right out of the gate. I've been waiting to pull the trigger on AJ Lee for awhile, for example.
I'll wait for Dean's new elite. I'll just put that head on a Shield elite body and keep it movin', I guess lol. This Ambrose basic is the most lazy figure I've ever seen.
