Not sure if I like the arm bands or not. I have the sleeved ones already. I hope to see these in hand before i decide for sure.

Bradshaw looks odd without the shirt sleeves. The bare arms drive attention to the torso being too small compared to Bradshaw's big head and baggy jeans.
The ripped biceps on Faarooq don't work with the painted on armband or the shirt sleeves.

So pissed Bradshaw doesn't have the bicep arm bands but farrooq does. Might get Sleeved Bradshaw on RSC just for that alone. I honestly don't think those were meant to be armbands. Looks to me they didn't remove the rest of the sleeve that is painted on his biceps. I don't recall APA having armbands when wearing their shirts but I can be wrong.

I couldn't find one picture or video of them from the Attitude Era with armbands when they wore jeans and shirts. Only when they wore tights. Also, it's definitely an intended design and not Mattel forgetting to not paint the arms. I looked at pictures of Farooq's figure with sleeves and without and the sleeves are much longer than the armbands and cover more of the bicep. Plus, the arm bands are slightly curved at the bottom to give the appearance of hugging the shoulder joint. The sleeves end with a straight line.
