I can honestly admit that I had no earthly idea that there was this much affection for Umaga...... Without drawing the hatred of the boards - may I politely ask, why such love? Figure looks okay and all, but I just don't get it.... He looks like a movie villain that the main bad guy throws at the hero halfway through the plot to slow the hero down, but the hero always conquers him en route to the antagonist. He looks fantastically mean (unlike Sid who looks Sesame Street friendly). I guess that's his appeal.

I'm always up for first time in the line figures plus I think the figure is exceptional.

I knew there was this much love for him but I'm with you I never saw the appeal to me he's the Dean Malenko of the set I'll get it for my wall but I won't get him for my loose collection

It's a shame what happened to him but this is like the PROPER tribute figure to give him. A Mattel figure that seems to have new molds just for him.

It's an amazing figure

I think so as well but with that said, I've come across certain figures in stores that I thought for sure would be hard to find and they weren't...
