I'll give you the boots as I forgot about the past RSC Exclusive Kane's. They should be on the figure.(And that their not pisses me off now) But I think the arms are the same arms they gave past Kane's including E12 Now if Mattel keeps giving guys like E19 Dolph & E20 Cody arms and legs that are too big for them...then yes Kane should get larger arms as the ones given to Dolph & Cody are larger than Kane's. As for the paint apps. I don't think the "flesh" meshed parts of the costume look that bad. It looks like the center of each spot is the flesh color and it get's a darker wash look as it moves out. So I think it'll look better in person, because anytime you take a picture of a figure the painted flesh looks brighter than the parts that were molded in flesh, Diesel/Nash/Taker figures none of their chests/necks ever look to match the arms and heads in pics, but do in person. I expect Kane's to look better in person as well. His mask I agreed that the stripes should have been larger thus making it more black ( at least that's what I meant by that) Yes the red of the mask looks to be too bright, but that could be the lighting of the pics. Maybe it is darker in person. I have no thoughts on why the Kane on the glove as I don't remember it, but then again we really didn't have hi-def TV's back then. So maybe he did but we couldn't see it...but I doubt it as I never saw it in a pic either. So I don't know unless it was on the media photo's the WWE gave Mattel to work off. And other than it missing that small touch of blue it looks pretty much spot on to me. But all in all if they used the normal Kane arms (which I think they did) I don't think it's a bad figure other than the wrong boots.

I got the Kane I want (pic above), and I couldn't care less about the Hardcore title no matter how accurate it looked. I'm happy for those who like it, and I'm happy I don't feel I need to spend my money on it.

Almost late June. I have this and Earl Hebner on the same order.
I may be in the minority, but anyone else excited to get their Hardcore Kane? I think it will look great in person. It's not perfect, but I collect all Kane's different looks. Can't wait to give the belt to E17 Mankind.

Once again, we could've gotten a Crash Holly, Hardcore Holly or Raven.
"Eugh,they don't have him under a Legends contract, mwah!"
Then get it done. For cripes sake, it's not hard. My very very vague memories of the Attitude Era were: Rikishi stink facing Big Boss Man, and Crash Holly and Raven holding the Hardcore Championship. I don't picture Kane holding it. It's the "We COULD go out and get them signed buttttttt... We've got Kane. We definetly don't have enough Kanes." Excuse. I could justify a $30 price point if it was: -Raven (w./ Hardcore Title, Kendo Stick and Trash Can) -Crash Holly (w./ Hardcore Title, Hat and Scale) -Hardcore Holly (w./ Hardcore Title, Table and Speed Limit Sign) But instead we got the millionth Kane figure in 2013. This is supposed to be an Exclusive, not a figure they couldn't fit in the Elite Retail line. /rage&rant

So maybe he did but we couldn't see it...but I doubt it as I never saw it in a pic either. So I don't know unless it was on the media photo's the WWE gave Mattel to work off. As seen in the thread in the link below, at some point WWFShop sold Kane replica gloves. Similar to The Rock with the Brahma Bull elbow pads, I guess Kane wore the replica gloves on TV for a while. I don't remember it either, but perhaps it was during his Hardcore title phase. wfigs.proboards.com/thread/266868?page=1This is supposed to be an Exclusive, not a figure they couldn't fit in the Elite Retail line. /rage&rant All of the RSC exclusives apart from Macho King have been figures that they couldn't fit in the Elite retail line. And even that one was, really. The exclusives are ways to get different eras of wrestlers that already have figures at retail.

It's A good figure! Just because the belt isnt perfect! Doesn't mean that you don't have to like it, heaps of people on this board were making forms of: "When will we get a 2001 Elite Kane?" We'll you have got it now! Stop complaining if you don't want to buy it!

Haven't ordered it yet.. in no rush to.. This figure (and the belt as well) are not exciting to me at all.

We'll you have got it now! Stop complaining if you don't want to buy it! When people say they want a figure of someone, they won't just accept it because it's been made. If it's terrible then why would we want it? Just because we want them to make a figure doesn't mean they can cut corners and turn out a bad product and expect us to buy it. My problem with the Kane is that the attire is painted on, it's not molded on. If it was molded then I would have bought it. It should have looked similar to the Jakks version but they cheaped out and painted it on because they figure people will throw their money at it because it's a version people have wanted and it has the Hardcore title. It's like the Jakks Meng figure. They gave the figure the wrong skintone. Should I be happy with that because I wanted them to make Meng? Of course not. It doesn't matter if I want it, if it's terrible I'm not going to just accept their terrible product because they couldn't/wouldn't make something decent.

When the info was first leaked I thought it would be amazing for sure, but there are just too many issues with the fig itself and those have all been pointed out very well here so I won't. That being said I really want that damn belt(even though it too needs some fixing) so I may break down and buy it during a sale which will be irritating in itself, or maybe try to just find the belt loose on ebay.

I usually wait until I want a case of elites and when a sale is going on.... Ordered Kane and a case of E23.... With the $20 discount, It was like free shipping plus $5 off.... My Kane won't come in until September. I don't usually buy things as a stand alone on RSC.

I dont mind this exclusive, what bothers me more is the timing of it really. I feel like this is one they should of done in 2014. Kane has Elites in 19 and 22 and that awesome Basic 26 figure which is one of the best basics there is, bar none. I would of liked to have seen this one at 25.99 as well similar to Cactus.

Im willing to bet Raven wont be getting a figure made anytime soon after 1)Suing WWE and 2)His Jakks figure flopping hard as hell.
