I'd much rather have a fat bossman with the button done up, than a skinny Bossman with an untucked shirt, so I gues this is good news. Still, I would have preferred a new mold.

No matter what, the figure will be awful.

I really hope this happens but Jeremy has a history of telling us what we want to hear and then not following through.

I don't know if this is totally better but either way, Bossman is Bossman and I will end up getting it. Ive waited to long for this figure to not get it even if the stomach choice is sub par.

I've wanted a Big Bossman figure since I first started collecting CS figures, I've just recently stopped collecting and have sold all my CS figures. I thought I would be upset knowing that a Bossman figure would be coming out but I wouldn't buy it since it would be pointless but after seeing the proto I regret absolutely nothing and even if they do switch torso it will probably still come out looking awful. I'm really glad I stopped collecting CSS.

I don't see how this figure is way too skinny. Big Bossman was really really FAT when he was a heel with the Twin Towers but as a hero in late 90-early 93 he wasn't that fat. This figure is about right and I think it looks great. If it is too skinny it's barely barely too skinny. But thanks for trying to improve on the figures. Going the extra mile of caring so much is always good, and if Jeremy makes it an even better release I'm all for it. Fans know what they want, but I don't see how this is a bad Bossman figure? And Sherri and PJ I don't think it is exactly like that Dusty w/cody rhodes, thanks for the pic, but It is close. They may of used that figure as the example they went with but I think it's a brand new mold and it's pretty dam n good. If they use Brother Love that size is fine but they have to change the figure. The Brother Love has a suit coat on! It has to have a new mold if they change it.

The torso is too skinny yes, absolutely, but not crazy skinny for this era. The Brother Love is just even more inaccurate. Cloth shirt or new torso like this one is the only way to go. The late great Ray Traylor deserves an accuate figure.

The best bet is for them to do like they did with Mankind. Use the Iron Sheik torso with a rubber shirt over it. Make the shirt sleeve-less and then give it the RA short sleeves arms. EXACTLY what I think as well. That torso is the best for him and they should make a NEW rubber mold ala the Corporate Mankind figure with the LONGER short sleeve mold instead of the muscular arms. That would be the perfect Bossman figure IMO.

i guess thats good news. the current bossman is the worst figure i have ever seen. the stomach isnt so bad but wat makes him look horrible is that his butt sticks way out. also they should make the peg alittle higher in his head so that it sits lower and his neck doesnt look so long. and no offense but wwfhasbro, i dont know how u still think this is a new mold after seeing the pics. the torso is exactly the same and the legs are pretty much the same except the feet are different. now hopefully we could get berserker with a removable hat and brown attire. i never really saw too much of him but i always remember him wearing brown attire.

I don't think it is exactly like that Dusty w/cody rhodes, thanks for the pic, but It is close. But clearly, the only difference in molds are the head and arms, how can you not see that. And I'm sorry, but the proto Bossman IS way too skinny, he lost weight as a face, but he was never small. The perfect size torso would be the Harley Race one (Either with cloth or molded shirt) If the proposed change was made, he wouldn't be "very, very inaccurate" like someone said, he'd only have one flaw - the buttoned up shirt. So that's just "inaccurate" not "Very, very inaccurate"
