I don't necessarily think it looks any better than the jakks da, but there's not a whole lot that can be done with lex.

Why in the bluest of blue hells did people vote for that Lex?!?! Out of his 15+ year career he used that gimmick for less than a year. We should of gotten a Total Package Lex.

i'm sure i'll pick one up ... buuuuut, i'm not crazy about the scan. i've made one of the toybiz fixups, and i realize that was more his nwo days, but right now i would say i favor that scan over what i am seeing here.

Because it's the only time his attire didn't look like a jobber's, except the Narcissist. If you're a kid or parent and have no idea who Lex Luger is, you're far more likely to think that a guy dressed up in the USA flag looks a lot cooler and more wholesome than someone in any solid color tights. It was a wise decision from a business and aesthetic standpoint.

Because in that short period under the wwf spotlight, he got more worldly recognition than his previous career. Wwf was good at making wrestlers house hold names through their media, videogames, toys, movies etc.

I will admit that USA Lex was my 3rd attire choice behind a Horsemen era and Narcissist era version. But that figure looks astounding. I would have bought it anyway, but im damn sure looking forward to it more after seeing the pics. Great job Mattel

GOtta say, my initial reaction is disappointment in Luger. The back of the tights look like there is area missing where there should be red stripes. I was also hoping for better accessories, if those track pants and weights are what they are packaging Luger with. Boots obviously should be fixed, and while by no means is it a bad figure, I had high hopes that the attire detail would be more spot on. They couldve added tassles ala SummerSlam 93 attire. Maybe I'm being too picky though - I did pre-order and was expecting to be blown away, which I'm not. Mattel has set such high standards for their figures (i.e. all of their Warrior attires) and they shouldn't be punished if they don't nail every single one.
