I just got the cryme tyme 2 pack today at walmart (they had all of series 3) and I got a gripe over the Shad figure. He is a big guy with big arms but the figure has the same size arms as JTG or even Evan Bourne for that matter. I think he should have the arms about the size of Batista's or HHH. Not mad just a minor thing that kinda bothered me. The thing I've liked about Mattel so far has been the scale but let's keep the scale to everything including the arms.

Technically, he has a bigger arm mold than Bourne... I do agree that he should have bigger arms than JTG though.

i feel the same way about the Elite Orton, his arms are smaller than the Elite Edge and feel they shouldn't be.

Most of mattels arms are that way imo. They are too ripped if you look at a guy like ted dibiase you will see its larger then a normal guys but is smooth and shaped like a normal guys. Mattel made too detailed of moulds. They need too be bigger not more ripped. That is something no company has gotten yet. Jakks was too big and mattels is too ripped.
Yes I agree shad should have bigger then jtg but jtg should have bigger also. Cena also should have way bigger. They get thicker not just more muscular.

it just bothers me that all they did was make him longer legs. he looks like he is on stilts.

Just use Jakks' arms if u're that bothered. Do they fit? What about colourwise?
I have a Burger King jersey that i used for my Jakks cryme tyme. I may use it for Mattel's version instead.
Haven't decided to get it yet.

Just picked these up a couple hours ago myself. I don't mind the arms,and yes shad is and should be tall, BUT he looks like he sewed an extra set of shins on his legs. Something is just plain off about that figure. Easily my least favorite Mattel fig thus far. JTG is fine though.

HBK's arms are definitely way too skinny too...

Yea they also have the exact same torso as well.
Mattel's arms are too small looking overall.

I think he looks good. Maybe instead of the HHH or Cena arm the Kane arms might have worked.

I really have no problem with shad, then again I didn't buy them to collect, I bought then to customize.

Have you seen the Jakks Heavyweight torso? I think the word you might be looking for is "cut." |

 I honestly think they should have given Shad smaller legs with Kane's Arms and Torso, it would work better then what they did with the short torso and long long... LONG legs.
