The worse part I see of it is the painted on belt design. Why not just use the E12 lower body? Did it not have the sculpted belt on? It did not actually. Only the torso had sculpted details. A painted on belt for this Kane would have been fine, if it was sized correctly and had a semi-gloss finish. The way it is now is just eye-catching in a negative way.

Not a bad figure but I would expect more for an exclusive. I will pick it up for sure sometime down the line

By the way, that thing about the Hardcore title someone said earlier (that it was the one Mr. Perfect smashed in the 80's) is untrue. Just read this for proof: belttalk.com/blog/?p=18Anyways, is there a way to just buy belts from Mattel? Because I like the way the belt looks (just a little paint and it'll look great), but I don't want the Kane.

Ya it is definetly off. Look at his mask on the back of the box. The figure's head is kind of slim and I think the eyes are too close together.

this figure looks like T total $h*t! I really don't like the mask or the belt on his waist. Looks goofy and nothing like the pic on the box. I won't be getting this KANE. best one they've ever made was the Flash Back Kane original attire.

Really cool figure. The only thing that bugs me is that skinny torso, Kane was huge at that point of his career.

Thanks for saving me money, not a fan of this at all This. Love this feeling, too. This is straight scalping now, by both Mattel and RSC. The belt looks like utter crap(not in the way it's supposed to, either), and the figure has so many inaccuracies it looks like a half-assed custom. Others have listed all its flaws, however, so, yeah. I can't help but think, though, that the basic 21 Swagger torso (w/ the elite articulation of course) would have worked much better than this one. Kane was JACKED UP during 2001, and this is just; embarrassing. Maybe we expected WAY too much, though.

it is a pass for me, not a kane fan, seems like a waste of an exclusive, just a repaint of old parts.

Honestly i like this figure. Could it have been better? Yes, by all means. But that goes for a lot of other figures as well. My biggest turn off when i saw it was the painted on belt. I felt it should have been molded like i thought E12 Kane was. It wasnt until Mr. #1derful pointed out that it wasnt that i looked at mine and realized that, so i am more willing to accept it. And everyone is right, the arms should be bigger yes, but the body is just as disproportionate as E12. The waist and torso look to be very close to the same size as E12. And while he was more jacked up during this figures era, he was never a slimmer guy. Hes always had a blocky torso, which neither of these figures captured. But when i think about how unbearably disproportionate the usual Jakks figures were, i get more and more excited about Mattels job and this figure. I do also believe this could have just been in the regular line, and not an exclusive, but then he would probably be more expensive on RSC anyway. Regardless off all that, I just ordered him. Cant wait.

Kane looks cool, but sadly that belt looks a bit off to me.

Not happy with the Kane really, the figure doesn't have laceness boots, arms are too small, and the belt looks way to big. For a exclusive the figure used rushed without any unique molds!

I'll wait until later still. Easily could've been a regular elite line.

2001 Kane is my favorite look of Kane, maybe because i started watching Wrestling around King of the Ring 2001 and Kane looked just like that.
Figure is okey but belt looks way too shiny and clean....HC belt was dirty and disgusting looking belt...that one is way too clean...but after watching some of your messages and comments i would say you guys still underrate this exclusive. It`s not great as Austin 3:16 Exclusive with Attitude era belt but its okey if you just dont have to pay ridicilous prices for this.

Not a bad figure. The mask is kind of weird though. The red is too bright for the attire. I think the Jakks TTL and R3 figures are MUCH better in this attire.
