What in everyone's opinions are the best and worst headscans Mattel has done? Likeness OR expression are both acceptable reasons for liking or disliking a head. So you can think a headscan is a good likeness but the expression doesn't suit the character, or vice versa. For me I have to say the new Team Madness Macho Man is my new personal favorite, it's a near perfect likeness and really captures Macho Man's intensity and focus. I am just floored by how good this is - bravo MattelDesignTeam! And as will probably not come as any surprise to WF regulars, my most hated is Mattel's goofy smiling DDP. Honestly the likeness isn't too bad, but it's the expression that kills it for me. It just doesn't capture the essence of his WCW character, which was intense, focused - and SERIOUS. There's more to capturing a character than just looking at promo photos. If they could just do a DDP head with the same expression as the above Macho Man (serious/intense) it would look so great. Honorable mention has to go to Sycho Sid Vicious/Justice. The smiling head is a good likeness but I don't want my Sid smiling. And on the flipside, the snarling Sid Justice one is a decent expression but an awful likeness. Looks nothing like him IMO. So I'd love a new serious/intense headscan for Sid down the line as well. What about everyone else?

The new Macho and the Crow Sting are up there for me.
The worst? I'll have to think about it and get back to you.

idk how i feel having a BEST/WORST headscan thread......started by someone who doesn't want any expression on any headscan.
thats like someone who wants every figure to have the Sheamus torso, creating a BEST/WORST torso thread.

Worst? It might be the paint job but E39 Sting for me, thing looks like a Lego. Some others- The John cena that looks like he's crapting (don't remember the series) E38 Reigns my god that thing was atrocious The last basic undertaker head (looks wierd) I didn't like any of the Mysterio headscans except the first and the last Sid ( it looks like him but didn't suit the figure imo)
Favorites? TRU Shawn WM 14 DM crow sting Ministry taker The last Dean Ambrose TRU ex Rollins ( my favorite Rollins headscan) Most of Punks headscans were good just ruined with bad paint jobs

It's a FACT that the worst headscan ever is Jinder Mahal's first basic.

Of the very few Mattel headscans we've seen, I think this one might be the best:

A ton of the one's listed are already in my favorites, but from the last couple weeks I'm LOVING how on-point the Alexa Bliss face/head-scan looks! So much personality in her mean mug.

They need to ditch the elite Savage head they use 2 much. We need Savage with crazy wild eyed looks. Also 123 Kid's head seems big but great figure.

One my favorite head scans is Elite 8 William Regal. Captures him perfectly and they even painted the lips.
