Whooooo! Any time we get a new Ric Flair figure is cause for celebration in my house.... Of course, now that I've finished dropping the elbow on my finest sport jackets & throwing my alligator shoes over the fence into the neighbors yards - it's time to share some pics! I must thank @shockwayne for keeping us all updated via the Target Tracker - noticed that this awesome set was not available anywhere in my area - except for ONE Target about 20 miles from my house. As soon as I left work, I took I-95 right on up to the very northern tip of Delaware & ran to the toy aisle as fast as I could! Of course, they were not on the shelf - but a very kind employee went into the back and brought two out for me. Yes, I bought two.... I NEED these things loose, but this is some of the finest packaging I've ever seen - perfect autograph material! But enough talk - let's start the party! I feel that Mattel has "righted the wrong" of the original DM Flair by giving us the correct attire that matches his black robe. So, for that reason, I'm going to use this Flair as my "1992" Ric Flair, and the DM Flair as my "Horsemen" Flair. Hey, it's my collection - I can do what I want to! The old Galoob setup..... Thanks for looking, the Horsemen will ride Forever!

Best photos hands down. Just a thought: DM Flair's head is more accurate to a 1992 Royal Rumble Flair with those black trunks. His younger head with flowing blonde hair is more suited to his 4 horsemen days in Carolina blue trunks.

Are Arn's trunks split? And does Ric's say Nature boy? I've yet to see pics of their backs. But it looks like Arm's might be split as I see some red.

Congrats man, I love the pics. I should finally have my Horsemen today. I think I've finally figured out what I don't like about Windham's scan. I think it's the beard. Even in his Widowmaker days I don't think it was ever that thick. So if I ever get a second Windham I may have to acetone off the beard and see if it helps.

Flair Forever, I don't post a lot, but I'm always reading your posts. I really dig your style of review as well as your picture quality. While I'm at it, your autograph stories are always chock full of entertaining tidbits! Can't wait to find the Horsemen! I ordered Barry loose, just because funds were tight and he has been my most wanted fig for a while! I will get the full set and hopefully meet the Horsemen for them to sign. Missed my chance meeting them last year in North Carolina when they were all together (even Ole). Anyway, great review!
