Man, from the moment I first saw that new Dolph on display last year at RSF I had no clue who it was. Seeing it person is no better. I think that may be one of the worst figures I've seen. But to be honest, with all the figures Mattel makes, the list of duds is truly nearly non existent IMO.

I usually try and be very positive about Mattel's figures, as I know Bill always tries his best and is trying to give fans the figures they want.
Having said that though... the head/likeness for the RSC Chris Jericho is one of the worst they've ever done - it just looks nothing like him (and about 60 years old too). Still, if you display it backwards (in the Jericho pose), it's a cool figure...

They've had a hard time nailing Dolph. Most of his scans make him look like a long nosed witch.
But nothing is ever going to beat that Andre with the "hair". Also that Rhyno... I know it's a proto, but geeeeesh.

Apa faarooq is a least favorite of mine. I threw him in the trash leaving Bradshaw without a partner. Nod faarooq is better but still not amazing. I'm hoping we get elite acolytes at some point

The Lana basic is really ugly and the head looks more like Nicole Bass. My least favorite flashbacks are. E19 JBL and IRS

Any basic figure that's supposed to have tall boots, but has medium boots instead, like Savage, Razor, Duggan, and Dibiase. Just because they already have the parts to do it correctly (I presume). Like this Savage, even with boot covers on, it looks silly because the boots are too short. I appreciate them trying to serve the demand for an nWo Savage though.  |

There have been a few "duds" in the line, but not many IMO. If I had to pick it would be the first DM Sting figure. Just doesn't do it for me.

I too fly the flag for Mattel because in general, they do a fantastic job, but the worst figure I own is the second DM Sting. The rubber coat, the wrong boots (I know they fixed it with later runs) and just not worth the DM premium.
Thankfully I got him on sale so it's not the worst thing in the world but just the same, easily the worst Mattel figure I own.

Basic 64 Lana for the century. When Bill himself mentions it after getting massive response on Twitter and the forums and in a negative way.

My pick would be both Surfer Sting elites. Just because I really wanted them to be great.

I love the new Dolph, one of my favorites in my collection.
Renee Young's figure is a train wreck and a dumpster fire
