First let me say thank you to MattelDesignTeam for finally producing a Jim Neidhart figure. Like most highly requested figures, I'm sure they would've done it earlier if they could have. The early protos of the figure look great. With that said, they totally should've included The Anvils pink cap he would wear in 1990 and '91. I'm sure it could've been repurposed for use with other figures, but even if not, plenty of silly accessories have been created for less iconic looks. Instead of a pair of glasses, or hell even the tag strap considering several figures have included them over the past year (123 Kid, Yoko x2), I would've preferred the pink beanie.  |

I don't know - it's not bad. But honestly, if they weren't going to include jackets (And they obviously don't) then what's the point? The titles are a better choice here.

I LOVE E43 Anvil. It's perfect the way it is IMO. It's not a missed opportunity.

I don't agree. Tag belt > pink hat

I'd much rather have belts than this molded plastic jacket that prevents any posing of the figure. Reason why I never bought the RSC Bret.  |

Title belts are way more important than a hat and this is coming from someone who already has 4 or 5 sets of the Tag Team belts.

It's probably my favorite accessory Mattel has released. Anyway, to the overall thread, wouldn't the pink hat be about 2-3 years later than the period portrayed by the figures? They look like 87/88 era to me. |

I hope they make a 1997 Anvil figure, to go with the other 3 Hart Foundation figures we have from that era. And then we would need just one more member...

I have plenty of tag teams where the classic belts would make a great accessory. I have 4 sets currently on LOD, Brain Busters, Edge and Christian, and Demolition leaving the following with naked waists: Nasty Boys, New Age Outlaws, Money Inc, APA, and Rock N Sock Connection. With Brain Busters I think I would've preferred cloth jackets over belts. I think the APA set is a much better accessory than belts. But when it comes to hat or belts then I much rather have belts. |

Yeah, I'm happy with the tag titles and the figure looks great to me.

U probably already have them. Or u could buy a 123 kid or yokozuna and get them. u can't go get an anvil hat or jacket. what if Finn didn't have his head-dress and wrist tassles...just the nxt belt. What if they make DM NWO Hogan and he doesn't come w/ an NWO shirt, weight belt or bandana...just the NWO belt? |

So Mattel doesn't give us classic Tag Titles and we complain saying, "We need them! There are too many wrestlers we need them for!"
So in the last year, Mattel gives us 2 Belts with Yoko, 1 with the 123 Kid and 2 with the Hart Foundation and we are gonna complain that we are getting classic Tag Titles?!?!
This board is awesome at times!
