Man that looks awesome for scale. I really dislike the headscan, maybe it will come with more than one head? I'm not saying it doesn't look like him but something is just off about it. Stellar figure though and I'll be buying for sure.

Well this just turned this on its head. Wonder how Mattel feels about this. This bad boy is going to be expensive. I'm thinking it's going to be somewhere between $60-$100.

Storm coming in strong on that scale too! New player in the game! High end 1/12 figures are hot now anyway with what Mezco's been doing. This is exciting for lots of reasons.

You hear that ?? It's the sound of a bunch of money mattel is losing at the expense of storm collectibles.

I really like it,
But the comparison idiots are out as always.
You cant compare a 60 dollar hand painted action figure with a 20 dollar mass produced action figure.
Its like comparing a Ferrari (Hot Toys) with a Corvette (Figuarts) with a Toyota Prius.
i.e pointless...
Some customs on this board are just as good.

Am I dreaming in hoping it's affordable and in the $30-40 range?

Am I dreaming in hoping it's affordable and in the $30-40 range? I think so. People are saying they go for about $50, and since it's a RSC Exclusive I'm sure the price will be jacked up higher. $60? $70? We'll see, but I'm leery. |

If WWE reaccepts Hulkster than I bet a Mattel version would hit. Storm is smart for striking now and getting in on a toy with a huge desire and market behind it. |

It is cool that (for all the Hogan fans) this is coming in Mattel scale. I expect him to be at Wrestlemania, or maybe just show him in the crowd at the Hall of Fame. Someway, some how, I expect him back on TV at some point this year... But what I don't see is Mattel making any more figures of him. And rightly so! So this is a nice thing for people who still think it's appropriate support Hogan.
Is this the first wrestling figure to come out with nipples since the TTL Justin Credible torso?

Im prepared to start selling off 100s of mattels just to have a small shelf of these storm figures.
Storm Macho Man
Storm Sting
Storm everything
Go storm
Ill always have my Mattel Fred Ottmans and doink, etc. I love those. But I'm tired of the triple h arms on everything, elephant man stings, and the skinny Flairs among other gripes

Heads and hands are usually sculpted separately from the figure (traditional sculpting), so that could be the reason for the discrepancy. It's enough to not make me want to drop $60 on it. EDIT I don't wanna sound like a dick, I like the figure, I just can't swing that much money unless I'm totally in love with the fig. |
