I'm not in love with the new Sami scan, but I'll wait to see it in person before I judge. Goldust looks great, but I was really hoping he'd have a new torso mold. He was a lot heavier back then in '96, and I hate the generic t-shirt mold. The neckline of his jumpsuit went all the way up, so the t-shirt really isn't accurate. I'll still buy it for sure, though.

i don't have any figures with the new arms yet....so i won't jump off the cliff yet.
maybe its tolerable in-person. But i just don't see how it does anything but make the figure look worse...stand out like a sore thumb when i have 6 years worth of figures w/ the original type of arms...and make it harder to do fix-ups.

I keep trying and trying, but I just can't pull that Goldust out of the screen.

Is the Triple H going to be a Walgreens exclusive like Shawn? Was super interested in that Bo Dallas but the new arms leave too much of a gap and just look very off.

The worst part is the biceps look pointy near the elbow, like a bone spur as mentioned. Think Basic 45 Mankind, or b47 King if you have those. Also not being able to swap with older forearms/biceps sucks because theyve spent 6 years making one type and now change. Also the movement isnt great. There is no CAW swivel, like many people keep assuming, and they have essentially two positions. Straight, or 90 degrees. There really isnt an inbetween. Think Diamond select or ML articulation, but only 2 points. click, click |

I know Konnor is a big dude but jesus christ, he looks to be the same size, if not bigger than Lesnar.

and a mesh tanktop w/ silver star on it and black weightbelt to go over shirt and smaller wristbands And larger torso, he was jacked in 99. This is the main goof up in my eyes. He was like eddie Guererro at this time (when he was wwe champ). Super jacked. |

This is what I don't get with Mattel. Way more detail and accessories than warrior DM so why is that DM and Goldust isn't? |

Out of what was shown, my for sure gets will be: TNF Madness Basic Sting Flashback Goldust But everything looked great. The AJ figure will look better with a flesh cast head. I'll wait for the elite though. MattelDesignTeam thanks for yet another great showing |
