I'd take a painted or molded shirt over getting him shirtless again. I wish they would have painted the top onto the HOF figure. Would have been perfect had they done that imo. I honestly feel this is going to be just like E38 Macho, sadly. The lack of a shirt, molded or otherwise, on that HOF Macho King, will forever haunt me.

If we get a jacket then it will likely be a repaint of DM GAB Sting so I wouldn't want that anyway. Hoping for repaint RSC nWo Savage shirt, cowboy hat, "Ultimate" glasses. He never appeared without a shirt so some sort of top has to be provided whether it's painted on or plastic.

I'm a little surprised no one said the solo white knee pad. I want knee pad, painted shirt, glasses, hat, and will prayyyyy for a plastic coat. I agree. As weird as it was, that one white knee pad stood out as part of his outfit.

I'm afraid I don't agree. There is no way either of the Ultimate Maniacs should have been a Defining Moment figure. I fail to see how anybody can deem this tag team as a defining moment in either wrestlers career. It's ridiculous. They should have both been in the elite line, or the next elite 2 pack. The defining moments line means nothing. I missed the memo where Mattel changed the meaning of the words Defining Moment. Using this tag team gimmick as a so called defining moment is in fact an insult. Because Razor wearing purple like every other night, mismatched Flair, and fire breathing Steamboat are so iconic. The line is not meant to be taken to heart. The name is only a name, not a requirement. The purpose of the line is to make an elite slightly nicer and put em in a fancy box

I would absolutely say the fire breathing Ricky the Dragon is iconic. If it ain't a defining moment keep it in the elite line, the DM line should be used solely for iconic, defining moments

I hope he has a molded shirt that matches the pants. Add a hat n glasses.
Though I was a huge fan of Savage & Warrior, I don't think I'll be getting the UM. It was so short lived and they never even got to team up like they were supposed to.

I don't think the name of the line needs to be taken literally. Even in its original run, WM6 was Warrior's DM not WM7. WM4 or even WM5 were more defining than WM7 for Savage.

Like at least half of all the DM's weren't actual "defining moments"

The defining moments line means nothing. I missed the memo where Mattel changed the meaning of the words Defining Moment. Using this tag team gimmick as a so called defining moment is in fact an insult. I'd have to completely agree with you. Defining moments was considered the line for the iconic look and accessories, based on a great moment in history. The Ultimate Maniacs was non of that except the fact that it had Macho and Warrior in a team. After this figure it kind blurs the line of what Mattel considers "Defining Moments". They're are other looks in Ultimate Warriors career that have more meaning, than a tag team that didn't work for with of their careers. guys, I don't know where you've been for the last 8 years, but Defining Moments was a means to get a figure out with more accessories and/or deco than you would find in the regular elite line. Sure there were some coincidences that makes it appear that Mattel actually did mean "Defining Moments" like Macho's retirement match or Trips coming back from an injury to a massive pop, or even Sting's win at GAB '90. But there's an equal amount of DM figures that aren't that defining: Steamboat in his piss poor dragon gimmick - WMIII Steamboat is iconic and we got that as a basic. Crow Sting which was supposed to be Starccade '98 and didnt even come with the WHC Ultimate Manics Warrior huh? SCSA with three titles? Really it was just to push out a tired re-released figure with shiny titles to sell it Flair never wore that black feathery robe with his Carolina blue trunks.

The bat sucks, but I gave mine the Toybiz one. Gave him e16 Nash's nWo title.

I don't care if it's an actual defining moment. I just want lots of accessories and entrance gear. Flair and crow sting and macho man and Bret hart, these were DM worthy imo. This warrior should not be a DM because of no accessories.
I hope this e44 macho man has the full entrance gear and is worthy of a DM spot. I'm not expecting it. But I will be disappointed if it isn't.

Some people still cannot seem to understand that 'Defining moments' is just the fancy name for this line, its a marketing gimmick that has nothing to do with the figure packaged inside the box. This line is used to make figures that require a higher budget due to higher deco costs and/or accessories. Can any of the DM figures really be considered a defining moment of that wrestlers career?! If you want a defining moment then the Macho Man & Steamboat figures should have been from WM3 and Warrior from WM6 where he beat Hogan and briefly held 2 titles.

This. I don't think the name of the line needs to be taken literally. Even in its original run, WM6 was Warrior's DM not WM7. WM4 or even WM5 were more defining than WM7 for Savage. Warrior retiring Randy wasn't defining? Are you sure? Considering Randy was reinstated a few months later and continued to wrestle after that for another 10+ years I don't consider it that defining. Defining, maybe because it was probably Warrior's best wrestling match, though. But referencing one's literal interpretation of "Defining Moment" there can only be one career defining moment and do not think WM7 was that moment for either.

Why don't people add question marks to their topics ... When asking a question ? The topic title suggests "here are Macho Mans accessories" but its a question instead of info. Not a knock at you directly, but it's like people KNOW that if they put a question mark in the topic title, then people won't open it.I can't be the only one on here that's noticed this is happening more and more frequently. However, as an educated guess, the answer to the question will probably be "C" . You answered your own question Maggle.
