His head is too big. Hope it will reduce in size in the final version as well as an upgrade of his cheap looking wig and robe. His old RA figure was way better

Hmm... I'm mixed. If they were going for post-debut styled Goldust they most definitely should have went with this look: I capped this from the Brian Pillman DVD - it's his 1997 attire. It still looks good, just would have been better if it was his debut look or pre-AFKA. Kudos to Jakks for making a new wig. That is NOT the BCA wig. I have like 3 of them and it is most certainly a new one. The head on this figure is obviously a modern sculpt. It still works fairly well for him (great likeness and expression!) but when you look at the sixpack it sticks out like a sore thumb with this big head. The Regal torso would still be too skinny but I think it might have fit him better. At least it's the SHW and not the regular HW, I guess. I wonder how the original fat torso would have worked? Eh, I wish Jakks would make molds like they used to back in the day. It's kind of silly that they use the same parts over and over and over and hardly make new ones. The Gold IC belt is an unexpected and awesome addition. The robe should have been something like this: Wouldn't expect it to be dead on, but it would have enhanced this figure so well. The robe he comes with looks closer to this debut look than the one they were shooting for. If I had his earlier RAs this would be an easy pass. But for those of us poor Goldustless folk this seems like a fair buy for $20 considering that RA3/.5/Raw X is harder to come by now. Just kind of letdown for an IE CS that's essentially RA3 Goldust with a modern head and cheap robe.

Wow, the scan is amazing. The robe and wig look pretty good too and the belts an awesome addition. Shame the body is nothing different but its a great exclusive.

"Kudos to Jakks Pacific for really going out of their way to make this an amazing exclusive!" Really? Going out of thier way, huh? You didn't have to do that Jakks... NO, SERIOUSLY, you DIDN'T. Yeah I think Trevor is blind , the Head is HUGE and its the wrong torso. -BEN

This looks great.
- I am VERY happy about the gold-strapped IC belt - Robe looks great - different wig than the BCA figure - New headscan
A few things I wish were changed:
- The upper-torso would look better it if were the shirt-torso - GLOVES! (Undertaker-style) - I wish they have given him a more "classic" attire choice, but I like it even though it is kind of similiar to his previous RA figures.

I might not get it. The head is awesome, but so was the last one. The body is exactly the same it appears. The wig looks slightly different and the robe is cool, but it still looks pretty much the same.

The headscan is fairly accurate, but isn't he a bit muscular? The ill-fitting wig just shows that this looks to be yet another failed Jakks project.

I like it but I have the RA3 one and the outfit is the same. The Regal torso would have been better and a older suit would have made it way better.

Hey Jeremy since you like to just pop up and say "yo". Why don't you do that now and let us know that you actually hear us all complaining about this and give us some inclination that you will make your minions fix this.

WHAT A LETDOWN!!!
Damn you Jakks!!!
This is basically his RA with a hideous fat scan and a robe/belt.
PASS!!!!!
Edit: I have RA3....sure as hell glad I got it for $15 right before he returned to WWE.
