The proto images from RC instagram for the Summerslam Balor looks like the skinny fat torso they've been using for the 1st 2 elite Finn Figures, I hope they change it to the torso that has been used for the Dallas Finn, the skinny torso is ugly enough to make me not buy the figure.

I'm sure I read on here somewhere that they couldn't use the torso that's on the Dallas one in the regular Elite line because of the budget, but in the Network Spotlight line it was okay. I'm guessing this either has the same issue, or they'll rectify it when the real thing comes out

Cant think of another budget-related reason. It's fun to think that somewhere out there are bins full of body parts, like all those parts on the wall at LEGO Stores

I think so anyway, I seem to remember that being the reason they gave when the original Balor Elite reached production

Yeah, I really hope they don't go backwards on these Finn figs. I've been waiting for that Summerslam Finn, so I pray that they put the correct ripped torso on him.

Idc. Id rather them all be the same though than half ripped/half not. Like Cesaros new elite looks ridiculous next to his previous two. Sting is another that is all over the place. Theyve used the Bluetista torso, Bret torso, Swagger torso, molded shirt torso, and Starrcade 97 torso.....

If that's the case, no thanks.
Why even make the figure with that skinny torso?

They've stated before that the skinny torso is much easier to apply lay the paint application and has a better result compared to the other torso.

I really hope it's the ripped torso cause it looks way better and is acurate but I'll get it either way cause I'll buy every elite finn and it's one of my favorite attires he's done.

I don't care what kind of torso it has. That figure is magnificent and will be bought. Probably will buy two.

Bill said the torso is due to the paint app.
Nothing to do with budget. I dont know where some of you get info

Hopefully they give him the more ripped torso but I'm pot committed to getting all the demons so they'll get my $$$ regardless
