I won't buy it if it has the black eye. I hated the Jakks one that did and it will be the same with this one. I know the eye makes it accurate, so if they do go that route I get it. Just my preference. I've never heard of this Jakks Hulk Hogan with a black eye..... can anyone direct me to a photo of this? I thought I had all the JAKKS Hogans..... but I don't think I have this! It's the CS 8 nwo head scan. They used it on several other figures like the bash at the beach exclusive, the sammy exclusive, etc. Some were painted in such a way that you couldn't tell, but generally his one eye would look smaller, like he was squinting. I think the confusion is that it was never painted to look like a black eye, it was just smaller than the other

What ebayer did you get elite 34 from? I did not buy them off ebay I had them preordered from Mr.Harding. He owns a store in the UK - so he send them to me as soon as he got them in stock! Are you in the UK as well, or just the seller? I've ordered from the UK before, so I'm not sure how long it usually takes.

Any pics of Doink would be greatly appreciated Rickster1983 posted some in the other thread, but it got deleted and I only got to really look at them once

Which look do you prefer for Doink? Just going by pics so far, I really like the long, mop-like wig.

Awesome! Congrats man!
For some reason my other thread about elite 34 got deleted, so I'm happy to see some more pics!

I could be wrong, but I feel like there's some heat between he and wwe. Mainly HHH, from what I've heard.
I'd personally love a shamrock in the mattel line.

When somebody gets their Doink the Clown, can you please please please post some pics, particularly with each of the wigs on? For some reason they keep showing him with the same one wig on!

I'm trying to figure out what torso the HOF Hulk Hogan has. As far as I can tell, it's not his DM one...I actually think it might be the Sheamus torso, which is why the shirt looks a lot bigger on him.
I know Hogan was slimmer at this point in time, I just hope it doesn't look odd in figure form. Really can't wait to see some loose pics, and with the bandanna off.

Wow, this was an incredibly fun surprise to come home to after work today!
Let's see, so far I'll definitely be getting...
RSC Hogan Hof Hogan Hof Eddie Stephanie Stardust Elite Dean Ambrose 4 Horseman set Lana (hopefully loose on the 2nd market) Sting
And probably a few others, but those are the ones that really stood out. Can't believe how perfect Steph and stardust look!

Yessss. That hall of fame Hogan definitely has a removable bandanna! Can't wait to see better/loose pics of that figure!

I think they just need to center his eyes more and it'll look better. I for one am pumped! First HBK, then American Made Hogan? That's pretty sweet!
Granted, I'd prefer a true, mr. AMERICA!

I could be wrong, but it looks like the Wrestlemania 9 Hogan says, "includes shirt, bandanna and necklace" on the package. Hoping this does in fact include a removable bandanna!

Son of a...I saw Doink on there earlier, but wasn't sure if it was legit in stock...now they're gone. Now that's the second time I've missed out on my top want of all time.

hopefully they do what Jakks never did! LOD 2000 Hawk paired with an NWA Animal. LEGENDS SELL BETTER WHEN IT'S THINGS JAKKS NEVER DID!! Legends series 1 Slaughter and barefoot Snuka beg to differ lol

Ughh, I got sooo excited when I saw insider videos I thought they came in early!
Are we gonna at least get a Doink video too? I want to see the other wigs on him. Every pic so far (besides the sdcc digital ones) has the same small wig on.

Just ordered my Earthquake. He's the only one that I can't wait for besides the rsc Michael's which I'll order at a later date.
Side note...that create a wrestler Hulk Hogan is AWESOME!! The head sculpt looks really really good, almost like WM 7 version or something. Plus, the fact that that it's supposed to be a round about Mr. America is great!! Definitely going to paint that mask more accurately when I get it, and will probably swap that head onto a spare DM body

Now this is not a complaint because I think it's a sweet detail but why is it okay to put the word "Sexy" on the back of HBK's vest but not to put some lips on the front of Billy Gunn's Tights? Makes no ing sense. Not that I have an answer for you, but I feel like having the word "sexy" is probably why it's an Internet exclusive. Maybe a little easier to push the envelope when it's not a mass market release. I feel like had this been in the regular elite line, it would have been altered or omitted altogether.

Woohoo, we finally have the entire Wrestlefest roster in mattel form with this Earthquake!! Old school wrestling and gamers rejoice!
I gotta say, in addition to Quake, I'll more than likely pick up HHH since I'm loving the new head scan and his entrance gear, and also Orton...I bought his elite 2 when it first came out and it was what pretty much hooked me on mattels because of the scale and detailed tattoos.
That remains the only Orton in my collection, so it's time for an update. Small things like the ring on his finger are the details that make these figures so much fun. Thank you Bill and team!

I feel like they would have been better off just giving harper a chair, table or ladder
