Does anyone else think the DM Nakamura is really out of scale, hes the same size as my Brock elite. Did Mattel fix the scale on his newer elites?

Nakamura is only 3cm shorter than Brock, doesnt really equate to much in a 1:11 or 1:12 scale it's barely noticable

He’s billed at 6’2” and Brock at 6’3” so that’s about right for Mattel’s scale. It’s never been an exact scale but rather ranges.

The height doesn't bother me, but the figure does seem bulkier than it should.

My main problem with the figure is I wanted to use it for Great Muta (who's 6'2'' 243lbs) yet he looks like a giant when you put it beside Flair/Sting etc

Or at least the waist & legs. Or maybe his NXT figure (black pants) with the knees down from the HBK ref figure? |

I think he’s too big too. Not as much height, as it is just overall bulk. He’s really wide and his legs are like tree trunks.
I’d rather he just have the Funk torso and some new legs.

My only complaint is the crotch section. There is no reason for articulation to be hindered as bad as his. To date, the best articulated figures have been the ones that use the X-Pac/Rollins lower half. If we could get that in each figure I’d be happy. Strowman can go in that same catagory of needing retooling in the upper leg area.

Nakamura does seem to be suffering from both Mr. Perfect and reverse Ezekiel Jackson Syndromes. I have his NXT figure and it’s gigantic and way too bulky. They should use some of his parts on the next Bradshaw

That pants mold really adds unnecessary bulk to the fig, otherwise I've enjoyed Nakamura's figures

Nakamura is only 3cm shorter than Brock, doesnt really equate to much in a 1:11 or 1:12 scale it's barely noticable Wow, that's crazy to think about. I've seen Lesnar up close a few years ago and remember him being huge. I've only ever seen Nakamura on TV and always imagined he was much shorter. |

Yeah id have thought that too, because Nakamura is a lot more slight built than Lesnar its an illusion, square em up together and itd be a different story lol |

i sold my nakamuras because of the bulk.
he's a skinny guy and his figure next to an aj styles or any other figure and they do not look good together
hardy's should have pants this big not the weird no crotch toothpics stuck into a torso that they currently have
nakamura should have a waste piece compatible with a funk torso
and MDT should try this nakarmura torso on a flair

Like in what world is Scott Dawson that skinny? its appropriate for a guy like Jack Gallagher. But not AJ/Dbry/Miz and the million of other dudes they use it for |

But not AJ/Dbry/Miz and the million of other dudes they use it for ya all true. and it is especially exaggerated with tiny elite aj but the elite nakamuras look proportionately sized up from almost every other figure in every way..head, torso, waist, legs like nakamura next to strowman looks bad too |

One of the reasons why I hate the Neville figures is because Mattel tends to give a huge torso, small arms and chicken legs. They need to start making new molds for the smaller guys. |
