I like that ultimate edition Shawn Michaels except for the head scans all of them look trash they look nothing like him IMO.

Great figure; I’ve had him for a bit now. The scans are way better in person; particularly the open mouth scan does look legit in person. The gears great too

This line was moving pretty well in my area until Nakamura hit the pegs. Now nothing is moving. He's had way too many releases in the last 2 years.

And a trash wrestler In WWE yeah; if he was still performing at his New Japan level those figures would sell but alas he’s taken the Hulk Hogan approach to American wrestling

His theme song and entrance are the best things about him. Like Bobby Roode

I have zero interest in this UE line but these pics make me want to pick up Michaels eventually. I’ll probably wait to get it cheap on the bay as all I really want is the figure. No need for the extra head, hands, and accessories.

No need for the extra head, hands, and accessories. I personally recommend this figure. I know people aren't sold on the torso style but it looks better than the regular elites due to the fact that elite HBKs look a bit scrawny.

While we’re talking about the Basic 100 head: the Basic 100 chase variant with the stubble would make IYH: DX HBK look way better. Got one for fam member as a gift and didn’t realize it was a Chase till later Since

Got one for fam member as a gift and didn’t realize it was a Chase till later Since Both of my chase variants doesn't have the stubble, is this a running change? Looks much better with the stubble.

in my opinion the Basic 100 HBK is far too old for this figure unless you are going for the random RAW he wore this outfit as opposed to screw job and lets face it, it's gotta be screw job.
I did a head swap with the old DX with some mods in the mixup thread, probably my favorite HBK now

It seems only ringside got the stubble version, because my order from them (both reg and chase) have stubble, but out of the 5 stores I've seen him in have the no stubble.

When I bought this for my lil cousin for Christmas, it was at a Target. I didn’t peep the stubble or know it was a chase till after he opened it

So my replacement HBK came today and the arms ended up detaching but are able to go right back in (think UE2 Bret arms). I’m kinda salty cause this is prob my 2nd fave UE (1st being UE3 HHH) and having issues with it right out the box (only Bret, Naka, and Finn have detachable arms, right?)

Not sure about Finn having detachable arms but to my surprise when I was posing him around HBKs arms are detachable.
