I know it's been mentioned but when I put him next to my dm modified Hogan he looks way too skinny. His belt is even too baggy/loose with shirt off

I mentioned this yesterday or the day before, one. Get ready for the barrage of people who think you hate Mattel. Get ready for waves of pictures from 1993, which in my eyes still don't look as skinny as this, but that will be used as justification. It's just plain a weird figure but you're not gonna be allowed to have that opinion.

Well, I thought he used the Triple H torso, but in your pic seeing Flair's torso I could see where you say it's to thin. But comparing to the DM or your modified DM he should be a lot thinner, because he was off the juice then and had gotten really lean. Although this could have just gone in the other Hogan thread.

I know its post roids era but this is too skinny. Only way to cover it up is with shirt on. Definitely need a new mold especially when Hollywood hogan comes out.

Wish they used triple h torso I wish they would have also. Might pass on it now, but I was thinking about passing anyway. I think for Hollywood they will go with Austin's torso with Triple H's arms and shoulders. At least I hope they do.

I think the figure is okay being that its his before roids look I think you mean post roids era. He dropped a ton of weight when he got off the anabolic steroids

I think the Austin Torso would work too. Bulk, but not too big and not a lot of cut definition. Even at his leanest, Hogan was never "cut"

Completely agree. That torso represents someone around the 230-240lbs mark. Even off the roids Hogan was a good 270-280lbs. I dont mind them not wanting to use the DM Torso but the furthest they should have let it go is the Austin/Rock torso

triple h torso mightve been better ya. i have a lot of gripes and nit picks with some mattel design choices but this 93 hulk, thankfully, for me anyway, is not one that bugs me too much

They even gave him the small shoulder piece. I thought the only nitpick would be the belt but getting it and seeing it in person the torso just kills figure

Its certainly a dodgy figure in my opinion. I agree about it being too skinny and ofcourse I made a point about not liking the split down the shirt either.
Yes I know Hogan was slimer in this period but it still doesnt work on the figure. Just my opinion.

If you compare him to E35 Earthquake then it's in scale for its size.

Mase hates Mattel!
Get Him!
Lol jk
Yea that looks bad. Far too skinny. They should have used Kane's torso for that era of hogan
Hogan and flair shouldn't have the same torso
The elite 34 torso would work better for this figure. I wonder if volkoff trunks would be too big for that torso
