In short, I would say yes, we are expected to just put up with it. The only way to change it is to not buy them. But, we all know that'll never happen Obsessive collectors are contributing to this problem. Please don't take offense while I single you out because I know there are a lot out there and you guys are also contributing to great sales and expanded lines. But warrior is your guy right? Have you ever passed on a Mattel warrior figure because you didn't like it? I think e26 warrior is ugly. I am a macho man guy but I won't settle for basics. I've bought every elite except e23 macho because I don't like it. Sometimes I will buy only one instead of the usual two if I don't like it. For instance I only bought one razor DM and one e36 ddp even though I would've bought two if I liked the headsculpts. Those figures are just toys for my son to beat up and won't be seen a part of my moc collection. E26 was a good figure imo, from an appearance in the uk, so obviously as a Brit, that figure was always a want of mine. I am yet to see a Warrior I don't like, that's the truth. I also buy all Stings and I have yet to pass. Had I been a collector of Elites in general, there are definitely figures I would have passed on, Sid comes to mind immediately. So I definitely wouldn't buy for buying a sake, As I don't think Mattel could put out a Warrior I wouldn't want

How bout a lightning quick running change? I liked everything about the figure and thought the head wasn't too bad. But now I hate the scan. Looks like I'll have to pose her with her head tilted if I ever get her. Or you could swap the head with her previous figure?

We've done better I will admit. I would recall all of these and put new heads on them. These will be made fun of for years to come.

Has there ever been a time when more companies have been making wrestling figures at the same time?

I feel like Mattel was trying to secretly give us the head scan of someone they won't make-- like Alundra Blaze or something-- but I don't want to put that kind of ugly on anybody else.

Making a bad figure inaccurate doesn't fix anything Ex. EG Jericho head on the RSC

We've done better I will admit. Why was it released then? Not trying to be rude but why didn't you guys change the scan? Maybe because they spent money and time on the scan and even though it's not perfect it's a business and they need to put figures out They don't have time to please everyone

Its not 1998 its 2016, they have a wealth of tech to make good headscans. They also have lana's first scan which worked perfectly and could have been reused. The fact that they ok'd this scan for production and admitted after pics showed up it was crap shows point blank laziness and incompetence.

We've done better I will admit. What goes through their minds when they know they've "done better" yet still release it? Do they think, "Hey, so what if the face looks bad? People will still buy it!"? Why continue to put out product with bad head scans and bad paint apps?

now yall know why i referred to her as the Dog faced gremlin in the WWE show threads for the last 2 years. i stand by my statement that this headsculpt is accurate the receipts here comes old pancake boobs lana the dog faced gremlin the dog face gremlin...is always in the dog house when Lana eventually drops the russian valet act....and becomes a wrestler...she can wear a singlet that says "Dog faced gremlin" on it I don't know what the fuss is about. If you have her make that exact face, that is how she looks. The figure is spot on.

^Lol
I'm amazed by the outrage lol. It's a rough scan, but it's nowhere near as bad as some other recent releases. Who knew Lana had so many passionate fans?
