Incredible reveals today! Just a few questions about accessories:
-Does Wrestlemania Dusty come with the yellow tank top?
-Does Wrestlemania Hogan come with an nWo shirt?
-Does Stunning Steve come with a robe?
-Why is the strap on Andre's title blue?

Good attire choice for Razor, considering that's the attire he won the IC Title against Martel in.

How does Taker not have a tie? He does! Someone posted a MOC pic in the SD2022 thread. He comes with grey necktie and entrance coat. Oh, nice!

It is, look the box I haven’t seen that pic. But why are these 2 together and not the Mega Powers? Stupid decision. I collect everything possible as long as it’s pre ruthless aggression era, and this isn’t even appealing to me. I guess I get it if they’re trying to do LJN throwbacks or something, but if you’re throwing all these Hogans/machos around, give the ppl the ones they want the most. They faced each other twice on SNME. I'm sure the Mega Powers will be done eventually.

Hey Steve, I love that Ken Shamrock is in the line again (especially with the attires chosen). Do you know if the green one has the logos on the side of his boots?

I wish they had done the shirt in a harder material (like the WM 8 or Ultimate Maniacs Macho), but I guess the jacket wouldn't have fit over it...The painted on tassels look odd.

Very excited to get hold of this, glad I got two. I actually think Macho is the weakest of the three figures but it will be the most sought after. That jacket is a weird colour, using that material (it looks like it’s faded in yeh wash, like a grey?) and the printed shirt with printed tassels is also poor in my view. The jacket is silver.

If you compare them side by side, you'll see that the chest and arms are much thicker (in proportion to the rest of the body) on these. Judging by pretty much every photo/video I've seen that directly compares the two, the Major Bendies chests/arms/thickness/etc. is in line with the larger first two just toys Bend Ems. Maybe slightly bigger, but not too noticeable IMO. Now I would agree they would stick out next to any of the Bend Ems from Series 3 and onwards (and look like a different species than the final couple of Bend Ems). Admittedly though, I don't have them in hand. http://instagr.am/p/CX8x7eQLE7o Look at how much wider Cardona's chest is compared to Razor's. I don’t mean to make a big thing out of it…Just wish they were a little thinner.

Jeff should have his hair in his face, and ideally he should have come with the JH shirt (while the Elite should have come with this one). I also would have liked to see the Elite head included here. I figured I'd be replacing that Elite, but think I might just keep it.

I appreciate the effort, but don’t like the bodies on these. The chest and arms are way too big. Bendems were obviously exaggerated, but not to this extent. I'd say they're pretty in-line with Series 1 and 2 Bendies as far as the body proportions go. If you compare them side by side, you'll see that the chest and arms are much thicker (in proportion to the rest of the body) on these.

As a Kane fan I may be nitpicking here but is this a bit of bait and switch here? In the promo pics the hairline looks natural the way it comes out the top of the mask and the hair sculpting is detailed, defined and well done. The retail fig looks like a wig balanced on top with vague poorly sculpted details. Promo mask is correct proportions with much better sized black paint details in the right places. Retail the mask looks huge and the black paint may as well not be there it’s so misplaced and shrunken. Promo pics has a nicely finished beard, retail looks like he’s been eating a blueberry and chocolate muffin and not wiped his face. I’ll be quiet now and shut up as I know most normal people won’t pick up up on this stuff but I’m a freak. Personally I think it’s a hell of a change from what we saw previously. Often times, the hair isn't placed properly on certain figures. It might not be like that on every one. Same with the paint around the mouth...Probably just a quality control issue.

That Hogan head (or at least the hair) looks more like 1984/5 than 1988/9.
I wonder if they'll do Zeus as an Elite in ring gear down the line...I'd prefer that to an attire from the movie tbh.

Hey Steve, it seems we've only gotten Mean Mark and Edge from Legends 14 here in Canada. Did Toys R Us only order two of the four in the set, or are the other two just delayed?

Sounds like only Mean Mark and Edge made the trip over from the USA to Canada. I remember when we first got Elite figures in 2010 - 2012 I wanna say, we only got 2 figures from each line for some reason. I wonder if Mattel is gonna do that again now with the Legends line?? I really hope not. I'm a loose collector, but my goal was to get the entire DX set MOC, which is going to be really difficult now.
