What looks weird is that the arm tassles and wrist bands are yellow and black and the leg tassles are orange, yellow, blue and white. So they don't match. Is that how Warrior wore this? Yep, that's what he wore when he first won the Intercontinental title. the face paint is a little different, otherwise it's the same. I love it personally. I'll be interested to see when they do more complex designs, but that's certainly a nice start.

I think some peep's on here are been a bit hard on it but everyone has an opion.
For me: Awsome sculpt (most important), Awsome accesorie and same articulation/style as normal meen Awsome figure.
Would I prefer different colour: Yes
But that's about it. The face sculpt is great but we do need a snarl which will definatly come in time.
I'm picking him up!

I really don't care for the head. It is a very odd expression for the Warrior. The color combo, which has been mentioned is a bit odd as well. The best part about it is the belt. It is a very good figure, but not even close to some of the others we have already seen. 7/10. Some of you guys with the "flipping awesome" etc. are far too easily impressed "Wow! A blue car!"

Figure is awsome. I'm not 100% sold on the belt style. Now don't get me wrong the sculpt and coloring is awesome!
It looks like they curved the main plate. I hope they did so it doesn't look rediculous on the figure.
Not a big fan of the strap style. Hope that it isn't hard to attach rubber like LOD's forarm guard.

Isn't it always that belt we get first in a figure line? If I remember right that was the first we got with Jakks and during the BCA line. The old school IC belt. Might just be me..

I wonder why his face paint and arm bands don't match his boots and the tassles on his boots? Kinda looks weird. I wish they would have made his colors match.

Excellent!
I've not purchased a single Mattel figure, but now that Warriorman has been signed, I shall collect Warrior Mattel figures.
I can't wait to get one of these. I'd also like to see some LIMITED EDITION Warrior figures also ;D
God bless.

Great to hear from you again bro! Long time no see. I still remember that infamous rant on the Jakks board when it was announced that there were some 1/20 Limited Edition Ultimate Warriors... therefore even I figured that you wouldn't be too pleased if Mattel also made some ultra-Limited Warriors. lol. In my case though, I'm not a completionist in the sense that I'll collect every single figure that ever releases... but yeah, the idea of collecting all the figures of my favourite superstars does indeed appeal to me. I'm only therefore interested in Warrior figures... and I must admit that LIMITED EDITIONS definitely do add to my interest in collecting. Warrior figures are always great... and Limited Edition Warriors tend to be even better! Mattel are doing great these days, and so I definitely do hope that Warriorman has cut himself a cool deal, like the one he had with JAKKS ;D God bless.

If memory serves correctly, the first belts were in a box set with Undertaker, Rocky Maivia, British Bulldog, and Owen Hart and it came with the world, intercontinental, european, and tag team titles. I don't remember any belts before that.

I hope this is the beginning of several more Warriors to come. I would love a USA attired one.

The colour scheme is kinda plain and i have a feeling the holes in the belt will break off after a while if u were to frequently take it on and off different figures.
Oh well.

Yep, that's what he wore when he first won the Intercontinental title. the face paint is a little different, otherwise it's the same. I'm so buying this for this fact alone. One of my favorite IC wins of all time.

Take care bro and God bless

Looks great, im really happy with the scan. I would have preffered a better looking attire but im sure we'll get it sometime. But that belt is really something special, its incredible, the wait was so worth it, i cant wait to see more of them.
