Seeing my bandwidth was exceeded in the pics I posted the other day of Legends 4 & the Defining Moments Macho Man I uploaded them on my other account so you could see them again. (I really hate when the bandwidth is exceeded)
Here's the WWE magazine poster -

First let me say I think the scan looks better with the hat and glasses on. You can see from the zoomed in pic mine has a messed up left pupil although it's not noticeable with the naked eye. The scan isn't the best there's ever been, but it's not the worst. I think it works for what it is although there's too much hair and too thick of a beard for Macho during this timeframe. Still I think most will display him with the hat & glasses on.
And let me add this - Yes, you see all the flaws of the scan in the zoomed in and focused photos where every flaw is captured for you...but when you are looking at it with you naked eye from as little as a foot away you don't see them. And while it's sitting on the shelf with the rest of the figures it looks great.
I'd say the jacket is much better quality than any shirt we've gotten, But the Legends have given us some robes that even though they were fabric they were just as nice. (Orndorff, Rude, Volkoff, Sheik) It's a very nice figure but personally I want the Legends 5 more. Because that is the Macho I wanted most of the 2. I was never a fan of Macho once he started wearing the long tights and cowboy hat...I was a pre-Macho King Savage fan. Once he started doing the commentary he became too animated for my tastes.
Defining Moments Macho Man -
Yes the Defining Moments figure still has a base and nametag -
I got these from RSC earlier in the week. I opened the extra Orndorff and Warrior I purchased and have a complete set waiting to be opened on Christmas. So I'll post loose pics of the rest after the 25th.
Legends Series 4 "Mr Wonderful" Paul Orndorff - Orndorff was a "Top 5" on my list of wants when I heard they were doing a Legends line and Mattel delivered. And he was the one I wanted most in Series 4. I think he is my favorite Mattel WWE figure now.
Of course there needs to be a pic of Piper, Orndorff & Orton -
Orndorff Comparison Pic - Personally I think Mattel's Orndorff scan blows Jakks away.
Piledrivers - I was so busy trying to lock Orndorff's hands I didn't realize I put Hogan facing the wrong way.
Legends Series 4 Ultimate Warrior -
Warrior Comparison Pic - I think I like the Jakks Warrior scan more.
Mattel Intercontinental Title Comparison - I noticed (at least on mine) Warrior's belt has a lighter blue globe than my two Series 3 Mr Perfect's have.
Legends Series 4 Ax -
Legends Series 4 Smash -
Legends Series 4 George "The Animal" Steele -
Legends Series 4 Hillbilly Jim -
Legends Series 4 Poster - (It was in the box from RSC)
And the inside of my ring with Orndorff, Warrior & Savage added - (Once Christmas arrives and I open the rest of Legends 4 I'll rearrange it and start removing some of the non-Legends guys on the side
