I received my Summer Slam Edge from RSC today. I was disappointed after noticing he was too short, and his boots were laced up versus kick pads. He was much shorter than the last basic of him I bought. Anyone else notice?

well he wore lace up boots at summerslam 98, so it makes sense that the figure doesn't have kickpads

Very short. He’s around dbrys height when in real life he’s about 8 inches taller

Size comparison with previous E&C Elites (@3:28): How tf did they manage to make him shorter than Christian? Bash at the Beach Lex Luger boots should boost the height a bit. Maybe switch out the torso for Wade Barrett's too.

Well that sucks. I thought this was going to be the go to brood/attitude edge. I want one in his white, gold gear. Maybe another brood version would be nice. Wouldn’t the taller boots remove the calf the design as well??

And this is why I’ve been very vocal about how much I hate the two piece kickpad mold that everyone in tights except AJ still has

Thanks. I searched for other threads prior to posting this, but came up with too many hits talking about the series in general.

I ended up swapping out the boots with kick pads I had laying around, though the thickness difference is now notable and they don’t really match well. They really just obviously messed up on this. I’m also disappointed because I paid a little extra to get these on Ringside along with a pre-order for two Attitude era figures. Had I known they messed up, I would have not purchased at all or bought him at Walmart for less money.

Do they all have backwards logos on the tights?
This figure was a rushjob, horrible design work.
The attire isn't accurate to begin with because the opted to save some money and just reprint the elite 13 deco onto these tights. Problem is this deco is noticeably different if you watch the Summerslam 1998 match.
The skinny legs need to go away. The work for a select few guys, but Bret Hart, Sting, Edge, did not have stick figure legs.
The backwards logo probably wasn't their fault, but it really sucks. Just a bad figure.
Heck even the Elite 13 figure is inaccurate. Those tights designs were on his baby blue attire as seen in hit tag team cage match vs the Hardy Boyz. He never wore dark blue tights until 2001 and those had black and white logos.
Bad, lazy Edge figures.
