Great figure and some great pics, thanks! He looks great with your Bischoff.
Hogan figures all held up pretty good, but this really is the best one so far - those heads are incredible!

I think the ultimate is better. Thanks brother! It’s not even close. The storm is a great figure but I could never get over the floating crotch piece. The hands always popped off easily and proportions always looked too bulky. Not to mention the pain in the a$$ that is the weightbelt. He used the nWo weightbelt during his late 96 run and early 97. I know he wore it at Halloween havoc 97. The UE attire is based on Hog wild 96. Only diff is the boots due to the terminator image couldn’t be used for copyright issues.

I would always get a kick out of your threads and Hogan spraying the belt is too sweet. \m/

Waiting for somebody to quote the pictures and say 'cool fig'
Seriously though, excellent photos. A guy recently said on this forum that this figure isn't a patch on the Jakks. Buddy, if you're reading this, do you stand by that?

I think the ultimate is better. I actually looked into this the other day, and he wore the NWO one a lot more than I thought. I think the biggest individual matches that stood out to me were Halloween Havoc 1997 vs Piper in the cage, the 1998 Nitro match with Goldberg, and the 1998 Halloween Havoc clustrfu... uh match vs Warrior.

I just realized. We finally have swappable hands and a Hogan, but no hands to do the pose? Geez

Buddy, if you're reading this, do you stand by that? or all of you guys who have been on this board for a while, know I'm a huge Hogan fan. When Hulk finally left TNA I was so excited we would finally be getting official Hogan figures! No more customs and fix ups. In 2015 when he was released from the company and the DM was canceled I was devastated. Back to making customs (& some really good ones from friends on here) but they never quite fit. Every convention reveal I hoped we would see that DM again. 1 year turned into 2 to 3 and I never thought this day would come. When he was announced last April I was shocked! I didn't see it coming. The long wait is finally over and I absolutely love this figure. Its my grail. So much so I own 8 of them (don't judge me).
I can honestly say this is my favorite figure ever in all the years I've been collecting! This Hollywood Hogan is all I ever wanted. I don't get to post threads as often as I used to so here's an old school Hulkamania 4 LIFE mega thread! Tons more figs going up on my instagram at AlexWestCollects and a video review of this figure is up on my tube channel if want to check that out!
Here we go! “Cool Fig!” 👍🏻 Seriously though we haven’t seen one of your posts like this in ages. Somebody is glad he finally has a Mattel Hollywood Hogan (or 6) Congrats and glad you finally got your long overdue Hollywood Hogan.

Awesome pics, so glad to finally have a Mattel Hollywood, the Storm one is nice, but in my brain it was always so out of place in my display. Also love that Bischoff custom, wish he would get a Mattel.
