When will this be up for pre-order? I'm wondering the same. I'm also wondering what the price will be, usually their figures are only 59.99 plus tax, and hopefully it will be only 10 dollars shipping.

Wow I take it back... This thing scales pretty badly with Mattel. Throw in the bad head sculpt and $50+ price tag, no thanks. The head sculpt is great its the size and the fact that Hogan virtually has no neck

Storm may be killing it with their Mortal Kombat line, but this dreck is a swing and a miss.

This figure looks better than SHF. I see a few parolees saying it's not worth $50? Yes i think it is. Like everything else its about the money. Most who bad mouth were probably not going to buy it anyway.
I waited for my Hollywood, now by years end i will get it. I will get the paints, and now double elbow joints and ankle pivots I always wanted. This is the Sword in the Stone that I waited to get.

I think his body looks chunky and cartoonish almost like they wanted him to fit in with their Street Fighter figures. I'm not saying it's bad, I will preorder once it goes up.

How much will this cost? I've never bought anything made by Storm Collectibles before. Probably $80-$100. Yikes! $100 for a figure?

Yikes! $100 for a figure? No he's wrong. It's going to be around 50-60. 75 at most, but I doubt it. Their MK figures go for 50 and this figure is around the same scale and detail.

Which is crazy cause the 1/6 scale Hollywood looks really good. Also agree they seem to make all their 1/12 figures really beefy.

I think the head/face looks fantastic but I guess it's subjective.

Yeah what's up with Mattel & these other company's making figures without necks?? First it was Sting in the BATB set & now this. Wtf?? I hope this isn't the start of some weird unappealing trend.

Who else clicked on this thinking the Mattel figure was finally getting released and was instantly disappointed?

Shfiguarts looks more realistic but the chest/shoulder hinge joint does look horrible along with the drop down hip joint when the figures are in a seated position.

Storm can use the Hollywood Rules shirt design but WWE couldn't find the owner? Wth? The Hollywood Rules shirt design was done by an artist named Gary Smith. He runs a company called Art Attack Studios and lives in Clearwater, Florida. Bow down before my ridiculous knowledge of obscure WCW trivia. And perhaps make a note of this info MattelDesignTeam since hopefully one day you'll need it I also happen to know Ralphus of Jericho Personal Security fame, actually has a twin brother (and yes, I am serious!). Man it would be awesome to get a classic Ralphus/Jericho 2-pack someday.

Im throwing you a curveball, but you seem to be one of the more level headed and respected members amongst the wrestlingfigs hierarchy...take my advice with a grain of salt...but perhaps youre confusing MDT with your serious ddp scan request, you see, ive come to realize that your sig doesnt capture seriousness, as it seems to gear towards the maniacal creepy look instead, he's making the expression of an obsessed psychopath in a trance...as opossed to an expresion of anger or serious focus. Your ddp pic expression is better suited towards a sycho sid or pillman scan(in other words, non smiling yet crazy face) you may want to find a sane, yet serious sig pic of ddp, because you may be unintentionally confusing MDT with your request, probably why they stick to their confort zone and continue with smiling ddp's.

I'll get it for sure just incase Mattel doesn't make one.
To bad there's no 1/12 scale rodman cause the 1/6 scale Dennis that storm made is awesome.

Storm's articulation seems to be a little more carefully crafted as to hide joints, but Figuarts are a little closer to the real proportions of the figures. I am disappointed that this won't fit in with Bandai's premium stuff but also glad it will fit in with Mattel.
