Thinking about buying one to make a Mike Knox custom. Think he's hairy enough?

Nice figure. Not a fan at all of the new packaging though. Looks a little too childish. I don't know why they felt the need to change the current one, I thought it looked great. It's a toy for children, childish is what they are going for i prefer this over the last ones, it's brighter, and just pops out more than the last one

Seriously though, a Mike Knox custom would be a worse waste of such a special figure than buying every one you find in order to throw them away, which is what you're essentially doing. Besides, the figure is far too short, oversized, & disproportionate compared to what Knox actually looks like. It would be a more all around failure than Sheamus beating Bryan for the Heavyweight strap in 18 seconds last year.

Saying that Bruno's figure looks more like Mike Knox than Kozlov's is the equivalent of calling a Catholic Priest a "theorectical physicist" because he prays to God asking how he invented gravity.

Right now, Kozlov is worth triple the worth of Bruno. What's that saying?

Thinking about buying one to make a Mike Knox custom. Think he's hairy enough? Probably too hairy. If you're using a basic Knox, I'd switch the arms too, Knox never had arms as hairy as Bruno from what I remember. You'd have to acetone the socks off as well. But I figure it's worth a try. Bruno figures are probably going to rot on shelves, so you should be able to pick one up at retail price easily enough.

I am thinking of either getting two Bruno's or two RSC Brock's and redoing my custom Magnificent Muraco.

Right now, Kozlov is worth triple the worth of Bruno. What's that saying? Random no name that happens to have a rare figure depicting him vs the oldest wrestler ever depicted in Mattel figure form/second ever WWE champion/uncrowned inaugural HOF inductee. See how suddenly the alleged "value scale" suddenly shifts just slightly? Not to mention the figure is far too muscular. Unless you want your Mike Knox to appear as though he ate Bully Ray & Garrett Bischoff with three year's worth of Anadrol.

I will say the backs of the package look better with the full image, It's too bad they couldn't have done that and expanded on the current packaging. I still think the front is ugly and the "first time in the line" font is beyond horrid.

I was getting used to the white packaging. Welcome change, though. Nice figure.

I made my Elite Knox with Hill Billy Jim's Legends figure. Its pretty much spot on and only needs a little bit of paint. Bruno would be WAY too short and bulky for a Knox custom. Hope I helped!
