I'm shocked that my new Hillbilly Jim is taller than Sid. Has anyone fixed their Hillbilly to make him the correct height. Any suggestions on parts?

My google search puts them even at 6'7" which is superior to meters.
Regardless, Hillbilly should be about the same height as Hogan. My Hillbilly looks like Andre the Giant compared to Hogan. It just ain't right.

Hillbilly Jim is huge, his figure could be a little smaller I guess but nonetheless Mattel did a great job on him. One of their best figures I think.

You guys have to remember that the figures are probably made to be scaled by billed heights, and aren't necessarily accurate to real life. WWE probably gives their kayfabe heights to Mattel to work with

Jim always felt like Kane or Taker in my hands. Definitely a bulky figure and a little out of scale. Mattel scale iamt perfect but it is still more sophisticated than any other wrestling line we've gotten.

That's fine. I'm not going to cry and spike the figure against the floor. I just wanted to see if anyone had fixed the height. It's a great figure regardless.

I love the Hillbilly figure as well.
I had the opportunity to meet him last September, and he is one big dude, legit.

It just ain't right. Hillbilly is taller than Hogan Based on what? Pictures show them to be about the same height. Billed height places Hogan an inch taller than Hillbilly. It's moot anyway, because I said they should be "about the same height" which means that regardless of who is actually taller, Hillbilly is still too tall when he stands taller than Studd and DM Hogan only comes up to his nose.

Actually I saw a video ages ago and Jim looked much taller but looking now he's slightly shorter than Hogan
