Going back to the Jakks days, can someone please enlighten me as to the fascination of nipples on wrestling figures?? Wrestling fans.

Are nipples a new accessory that each figure is going to come with like extra hands???
What a titilating proposition!
Fairly certain these computer generated mockups (specifically this torso) has had nipples on it since Mattel started showing them. The final product has yet to arrive with them, and I doubt we get them now. That's quite the bubble burster, but I'll keep rubbing my...hands in anticipation. Rumor has it that TT2018 Braun is gonna have a nip slip chase variant Glory be!
"In my time of hubris, I did look down upon the weak and revel in their fearful gaze. Only until my wardrobe failed me did I learn the chill of winter and the sting of humility." (Book of Braun; 4:27)
The Riddle of Nipples is no laughing matter.

It would be weird to have nipples. Imagine if they had to paint them in.

It’s just a mock up uncoloured render, they probably won’t be added on the final product. Same way the pins in the shoulders won’t be either. Weird thread title btw. This.

Yeah, the computer renders have always had them. The women even have noticeable bumps on the renders.

I don't understand why people are weirded out by figures having nipples. Didn't some of the BCA moulds have them? I personally find it odd they don't have them. We moan about arms being the wrong size, pads being incorrect and missing tats and designs, but its fine that figures are missing a visible part of their anatomy?

Remember when Jakks made that one Andrè with a huge nipple? It was gigantic, and I’m pretty sure they only put one on it because of his singlet

Action figures with non-visible nipples are offensive to people born without nipples.

Yeah, we dont need to, at all, all the bizarre crotch piece, torso and now nipple talk weirds me out IMO Mattel still hasn't gotten a firm grasp of crotches, the man-lumps on their super hero stuff is a bump up from the flat crotches they had before, but they still look awkward, the lady crotches too. Too wide, too long, too spacious, too something. It's not so bad on WWE figures though. I wonder if the sculptors for the different lines could compare notes to get the most effective junk size-to-articulation ratio.
To address what you said though, I think how comfortable you are discussing it depends on how into the hobby you are. I like tinkering and customizing and seeing how much detail figures can hold and what their full potential can be. But I can understand that most peeps are happy just popping into a store and grabbing another trinket for their collection, without sweating the details.
It would be weird to have nipples. Imagine if they had to paint them in. Well, they don't have to paint them. In fact I'd prefer they didn't paint them because, based on recent purchases, the areolas could end up on the figure's bicept.
True FX printed nipples would be incredible though, they could be chase variants!
Yeah, the computer renders have always had them. The women even have noticeable bumps on the renders. Obviously I must research this further.

I don't understand why people on a toy forum dedicated to little half naked men don't have more of a sense of humor about this stuff. Every time I try to have fun with the community there have to be some soursops that take it too seriously lol

It makes me wonder if they will add nipples to the female figures as well

Whenever I hear nipples I always think about that scene.

I don't understand why they don't photoshop the shoulder pins out. Just a minute or less worth of work to make the digital renders look better.
