Didn’t know it had a new head sculpt. I like the old one better. This one doesn’t really have any honky tonk swagger and looks more like the guy who always wears button ups on Modern family. The jumpsuit is great. It’s currently soaking in a cup of white vinegar and water to take some dye out. Because it will definitely stain. I have another one on the way because I thought ups lost this one. UPS delivered to a house a block away from me. Anyone know how to unfile a UPS claim? Guess I’ll display one on the 1987-89 shelf and one on the 1990+ shelf Can you tell me who's boots you swapped onto Andre in the picture above and any tips on how to easily get these on & off? I have not attempted any part swaps yet but I really love the Andre in your picture. (Thanks)

I just checked the GameStop website for the store nearest me and had them hold one. 15mins later, I’ve got a Honky Tonk Man in hand!

Got mine today! Minty fresh box! Same here, which shocked me because HBK and Savage boxes were BEAT. Funny note, they didn't fix the typo on the back. It says one of his moves is the 'Flying FiRst Drop'.

Just picked mine up today as well...Really like this Honky in the RetroFest line since he was playable in the old WWF Superstars Arcade game...Would have been great if the Macho Man RetroFest figure was based on this time frame as well...Yes,that Honky belt pictured on the package would have been even better than them including an IC title, in my opinion...However, that jumpsuit and guitar were great accessories so I can't complain...

@mattelfreak red one was supposed to have a running change with it to fix the incomplete jumpsuit e cheers sweatyjimsox buy a cheap defining moments macho man from ringside or wherever. then get some acetone or nail polish remover and some q tips. its super easy...dip the q tip in the acetone and gently dab or swab the stars off. heres a tutorial: www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/Guides/Acetone.htmlthen all you need is heat to pop off the boots and pop them on. so heat up some water in the microwave in a microwave safe cup. or use a hairdryer on the boots for a few minutes or until soft and the boots pop off and pop back on. super easy and is a decent fix. still salty at MDT for not including the large footed boots in yellow. they are surprisingly uncreative in certain aspects of their job

Within the past few months I’ve purchased my favorite 80’s heels: Legends Iron Sheik, Rod Piper, Legends Rick Rude (All time favorite) and both Honky Tonk Man figures. Just need that Harley Race. Let’s go ahead and get a Hercules in production.

I actually like the head sculpt. Both are a likeness, and at least we have two.i have plenty of HTM to swap out either

I just picked one of these up at lunch. At first glance I really like it! I can't wait to open it up later after I get home from work.
