Yeah the heads are made to be switched. Jakks made Yoko's head too small and Mattel made Yoko's head GIGANTIC.
If Jakks had made that Yoko, everyone would be complaining about the head size, but since it's Mattel, everyone just looks the other way. The head looks ridiculous. But it worked out in this instance, because you can swap the Jakks and Mattel heads and suddenly both figures are better.

That's a very nice Yokozuna, I really like the checkered robe he had on. The legs and the
chest look very realistic, but the head was a bit to small and his arms need to be larger.
Thanks for sharing your pick up.

actually, swapping the heads betwen jakks & matty will pretty much make both perfect.

Much better than the Jakks one.
Congrats on getting him so early.

I wonder if putting the Jakks arms on the Mattel Yoko would fix the arm issue?

I love this figure with the robe on. As long as his arms are covered up, I think it looks great.

Damn, that Yoko looks great. Wish I would have pre-ordered. Gonna be a while before these guys hit retail out here. Elite 13 has only hit one store in town.

Body is awesome, but the head reminds me VERY much of a BCA...

His arms look too skinny, head too big...I think he would have benefitted from now having elite articulation...a basic yoko would look better I think...still better than the jakks version atleast

thanks for the pics.
can I ask do you think the skintone would match up OK for putting the Mattel head on the Jakks one (or vice versa)?

Something is off with this figure...
Tits too small perhaps?

If you look at pics of Yokozuna he does have the look of small arms due to his huge size which is mostly located in the middle of his body?
Oh and if you position the head further back and also the top of the torso his head looks a fine size. Personally I wouldn't want the Jakks head on my Yokozuna.
Plus I've measured the head of Yoko with other Mattels and the eyes, nose and mouth match how they should....
I guess you'll see what you think when you get him in person.

While people are complaining about how the arms are too skinny, I thin the Jakks arms are too big. Holy crap. I have never seen a Jakks Yoko this in depth, and wow, Bingo Wings. I'll chalk it up to that maybe Yoko is just a tough person to fashion a figure after becasue both figures have pros and cons.

wtf is up with those arms?  Since when did Yoko have the same size arms as rey mysterio? Mattel seriously needs to work on their arm proportions. |
