I love the backdrop carding bonus these have. I am planning on getting these two, too. Gene looks so good!

Those are great pics, I am glad we are getting a Mean Gene figure and he turned out very well. My only complaint is, and it is minor, I wish they could use the old school WWF logo for his jacket and mic (as well as for The Finks mic in the build-a-figure line). Even with that, it is still my favorite suited figure Mattel has released. Oh, you mean with he actual "F" in the logo instead of just the "WW"? I agree, I'd love that. But I am happy they gave us what they could. Yep. They need to bring the "F" back.

I haven't done the swap but it looks like you pop off the arms and head, slide the red coat on, pop in arms, pop the head back on. Disappointed that the red coat doesn't have the the old WWF logo on it. Its his AWA attire. Don't think Gene ever wore a red sport coat in WWF. At least not any time that I can remember. Good call! I didn't even think about him the AWA. Now you have me wanting to throw an AWA decal on that red coat and put it on him.

Wish Syxx came with a camcorder instead of another spray can Then we'd really need a Chyna.

Now you have me wanting to throw an AWA decal on that red coat and put it on him. Thinking about doing the same. Likely will end up getting three Mean Gene figures. One of each of these attires and one to put on BAF Fink tux.

Those figures look great, and it's good to hear figures are 2 per case. So how does the second jacket/arms work on Mean Gene? Does the torso and legs slip out the bottom of the coat? I haven't done the swap but it looks like you pop off the arms and head, slide the red coat on, pop in arms, pop the head back on. Disappointed that the red coat doesn't have the the old WWF logo on it. Scratching my head on why you would need to pop the head off to slip the jacket on?

His head pops off easily but I’m sure you could do it with his head still on.

I really wish Syxx had new head without the tongue and with only the goatee he had during that run. I'll still get him, but it's a bit disappointing. Gene is great.
