So on eBay, I found this TNF Rock figure (advertised as being straight from the packaging) and by the looks of it, he uses the Samoa Joe/Erick Rowan arm mold. Now it could be a custom job, but these arms weren't ever used on a figure in the Rock's skin tone and they certainly don't look painted. Why the  would Mattel ever use these arms on someone built like The Rock is beyond me.  |

Weird... those definitely aren't the correct arms though(!).

Could be a factory error. A few HOF Yokos were given the wrong upper arms. They never made a figure using those with the same skin tone as Yoko. I thought it was an Eddie piece because it's the same series, but nope. Eddie's skin tone is different.

That's the same upper body as the HOF 4-pack Scott Hall. Everything including the hands are the exact same  |

Actually if you look at the legs closer you could see that it has the same lower legs as the elite Hogan too. I don't remember how the original Tnw rocky looked, but I'm assuming those legs make him super tall. Hopefully it's a custom... I think the modern Rock figures could benefit from a unique torso to be honest.
