Was just wondering if anyone noticed that the E3 Shawn Michaels arms/torso are smaller than the Walgreens and E7 HBK. Same mold and all but the parts are smaller in size. Are any other figures like this? I have no issue with it just wondering.  |

Yeah I noticed. The DM HBK has the tiny arms too, it looks awful.

So did the EG figure and his basics back in the beginning. They all had those scrawny arms of E4.

The smaller bicep piece is more proportional to his body I think, but hard to tell without a few more pics at different angles.

Those DX arms look too big for Shawn. He was like 235 at best, and probably the second smallest guy of his era (New Gen)

I’ve noticed this too. I actually prefer the ones given to the elite 19. The elite 3 has elongated arms. I just wish Mattel would give him his kneepads. No excuse at this point with the Amazon Jericho.

He's got big biceps. Absolutely agree. Even as a smaller performer I was always impressed with his biceps. Dude never skipped arm day. |

I just wish they'd give his figures that have tights the same lower body as Dolph Ziggler. The large kickpad boots that they give AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan are NOT correct for Shawn Michaels. If they added kneepads to this lower body (and OBVIOUSLY an HBK upperbody), it would perfectly represent HBK's tights attires:  |

I'm more concerned about the lower legs/boots....but you're right, they BOTH need thinner thighs. |

Shawn should have LOD boots. We’ve asked for this to change for years and they still won’t do it because then they’d have to change his calves since he uses that dreaded two piece kickpad mold |

I think the thinner one is more accurate for older hbk.

Basic Christian figures also used to use those skinny arms while his elites always had the bigger ones.

Yeah the thinner arms are good for figures based on 2002-2010. He was a lot smaller when he returned so it makes sense that they’d use smaller arms for older versions of HBK.

Yep, and he got even smaller during that run. He was noticeably smaller during the WM match with Flair than he was just a few year earlier at WM XIX and XX. |

WrestleMania Shawn also has smaller biceps, fyi.
In fact, if I'm not mistaken, WM Shawn and SummerSlam 2015 Seth Rollins both actually have the same body part pieces.
