I'm cool with him being wafer thin with diva arms, and inaccurate boots, simply because the figure has chest hair. Just swap the head onto a Brock Lesnar body if it makes you happy.

I really hope they give him knee pads, tracking an extra pair of red knee pads is a hassle and not to mention the addition of paying for decals. I don't get it's the second Fb shawn that we get that doesn't have knee pads, both RRH and Entrance greats had them why not elite? The LOD would work wonders for Shawn & Billy Gunn imo, don't know why Mattel hasn't used it for them.

Thats another reason pads would be great, they'd help cover up the weird red tops to the kickpads

Like E19 I don't think it looks bad without them. And I think he has the larger arms the E19 & RRH figure had and not the pea shooters his EG & modern basic figures have. What I would rather see is the Hitman at least gets elbow pads (if not both elbow & knee pads)

it definately needs knee pads and smaller boots.
I hope at the least they fix the kickpad issue. They painted the top of the boot the same color as his tights. It looks weird

I'm with you, it needs the knee pads. It's a great figure but it's incomplete. The entrance gear isn't accurate, so I'd rather not have it. Spend that budget on knee pads, a painted necklace, and an accurate Winged Eagle.

I can take red kneepads from another figure to put on him. I can't do with with entrance gear.

Maybe we can get a revision case featuring HBK with knee pads, correct entrance gear, and a corrected Honky Tonk Man with a belt painted onto his jumpsuit.

I think the figure looks great as is, but it's always nice to have more I guess... but I like the detail they decided to incorporate. I'd assume this guy would be in Punk levels of cost on Mattel's end right? (with the extra paint and entrance gear?)So, it doesn't surprise me they left out the kneepads... also in the case of Shawn I always felt that his pads were meant to be more integrated into his attire, generally being the same print kinda disappearing into his tights rather than being a contrasting color allowing them to pop.

I would rather they skip the entrance gear all together to get knee pads on it Totally agree with this. Besides that entrance gear looks terrible and will literally be thrown right in the garbage when I get the figure.
