I'm assuming I have the record for breaking this exclusive 1st. 2 year old son ran over, climbed the counter like a monkey and broke the sunglasses with in a matter of 1 second  on the other hand, popping the torso off and putting the weight belt on that way is the way to go. A lot easier. |

I am anxious to get my big order with Hollywood in it but have to wait on the SS Demon Balor to get back in stock. Its already late June gosh darn it lol I was hoping they would get those in. I know. I'm waiting on a SS Balor back order too. I mean, he was a separate order from Hollywood, but still. Not to cause any further depression but my order included Hollywood Hogan, SS Balor, and B72 Nakamura. It shipped out as soon as Hogan came in stock and arrived today. I can't remember if Balor was on back order or not when I placed my order though, which was done about an hour after the Hollywood Hogan went up for pre-order. That could be the difference. |

I'm sure it wasn't on back order whe you ordered it. They had it in stock just a couple weeks ago, but it went back on back order right before I had the chance to order. |

A lot easier. That sucks about the glasses. I pulled my figure's right shoulder off trying to move the lat joint. I hate that articulation point, because at least one of the shoulders always sit on it wrong. Luckily it pops right back on. I am used to it though as it happens all the times with my Medicom Dark Knights shoulder. |

Got home from work and found my Hollywood Hogan arrived a day early! Hollywood is running wild on my collection, brothers.
Thanks, RSC!

You said you put cotton in the trunks to keep it up...just a little curious on where/how you put the cotton in/got it to stay on. And if anyone wants a toddler, I packed his bags and I'm selling him to the 1st bidder so I can buy another Hogan for the glasses lol |

I popped the waist off and wrapped the cotton around the stem and the top of the cod piece before I popped it back onto the torso. I do think at some point I am going to tighten the bottom of the cod piece that runs between the legs to remove some of the open space from the profile of the figure. That or see if I can swap it with a cod piece from a Neca figure.

Put my Hogan in my Detolf WCW shelf right in the middle of Hall & Nash. It mixes in with the Mattel's just fine. It's a great figure. Thank you RSC & Storm!

Edit* just saw the photo of seperating the upper torso. If you can get the belt together just take the figure apart and slide the belt over his abdomen. Then just pop him back together. That might actually work, but the thought of having to pull him apart to get it back on just doesn't sit right with me! I'm not a customizer and I've never actually purposely pulled apart a figure. Especially a brand new shiny Hollywood Hogan!! Oh the humanity!!! He pops apart with little to no effort. It works fine. Defiantly reccomend |

Hoping this sells well and sparks Storm to work with RSC for some additional exclusive wrestlers that may not bee on good terms with WWE and Mattel. Big Poppa Pump figure, maybe even Owens wife would be ok with a company not related to WWE making a figure and donating a percentage of sales to his foundation.

Can anyone help pose a Storm's Hogan and Ryu standing straight side by side for a size comparison? Appreciate your help very much. Thank you.

A lot of disappointment in some of the figures design features but just look at it as a hold over until mattel finally makes one, it does look good on display

I have a HUGE Mattel collection but I do not play with figures. I am an adult that opens some of the figures to put on display in a case, and leaves others MIB either in a case or hung up in the Man Cave. As far as an adult collector figure, this figure blows away anything Mattel has put out. I truly hope we get more from Storm going forward at the "higher price point" adult collector level. Maybe even current stars if they can work an agreement out with WWE licensing and Mattel. |

Aesthetically speaking yes I agree, but the lack of playability/handling im sure is an issue for many that wouldn't be a problem with the Mattel version |
