So I got my Heyman BAF legs in the mail today. I noticed the waist is the same size as the other BAF like Cole and ricardo. He is way bigger than these 2 in real life. I would say mattel has gotten their moneys worth out of this same BAF mold they keep using over and over. Any thoughts on why they use this same mold for someone who is clearly bigger than the parts they are using?

I assumed Heyman's ass would be bigger.

I think the torso's stomach is slightly larger, but the jacket is for sure so it covers the waist. So why make a new one if it looks fine with the jacket over it?

His jacket is made to make him look bigger. No need to remold his waist when you can't see it.

I agree, Heyman is grotesquely mobidly obese. Mattel used the same molds and parts to skimp out of making a new mold. I said it before that Heyman looked way too skinny. The legs, torso, and waist all need to be bigger. MUCH MUCH bigger! Ryback could not even pick up Heyman several months ago for crying out loud. I dont see how others could make excuses for Mattel when the parts are way off lol To each their own I guess...

Probably didn't think it was worth creating a fat suited body that they might not use again. It is a shame though.

The torso is fatter as some have mentioned. The legs are covered by the jacket so it ain't a big deal. The figure is pretty solid. I wasn't really big on the scan but after seeing it first hand it's awesome.

Just like how Mattel makes everyone look ripped, they aren't going to make Paul overweight...

I'm fine with it. Mattel did really great with this BaF. If it bugs you that badly, there's always the option of customizing.

Will anyone be making a Paul Heyman Commentator version? I'd love a 2001 era version.

My Heyman has a bum arm and if I move it inwards it pops out. It's pretty annoying. I feel like they could have made a bigger mold that could be reused for Paul Bearer

The only customization the BAF Heyman needs is an ECW ball cap!

He's probably bigger than what you'd consider "average" for sure, but the figure's mold really isn't too far off. FWIW, Ryback couldn't pick him up because that move relies on the guy taking it to get himself up and into position as much as it does for the guy giving it to hold him.  |

Thank you thank you thanks you. One if my biggest pet peeves with the ryback hate is when they say he couldn't lift Heyman. If you seriously believe that then the laws of physics are not apart of your logic. But the Heyman figure comes with a baggy jacket, but same old torso as the other BAFs? Lame. So what when you grab the figure by it's waist there is just a hollow gap between jacket and body. |

I think the figure looks good. The jacket serves well for his "puffiness." However I do help there's a new mold for Bearer if we get him. Lol at people saying Heyman is grossly, morbidly obese, or any other crazy adjectives. He's portly yes. But he has more of that fat, slobby, greaseball attitude character-wise. Bastion Booger was morbidly obese. I don't know that I'd go that far. He's probably bigger than what you'd consider "average" for sure, but the figure's mold really isn't too far off.
