I am finally back from holidays and as promised here are some pics of Mean Gene - which btw do not do him justice! One of the coolest figs Mattel has done to date. Scale is really good considering all suits are usually taller than usual. An old school mic would have been a nice addition too (with the Head BAF part). The chase fig of the set would have to be X-Pac followed by the Triple H (head scan is the best) Cesaro is meh, Rollins is always the same. To see more of MGO and his old school friends check out my instagram @the90sdude Peace!

I still don't understand why they use painted hands on suited figures.

"Mean Wooooo... By God... Gene!!" Really hope some more of these start showing up... I can't really afford $360 to build him(!).

Cool this is finally out but I don't like the smiling headscan as it isn't going to look right in most interview poses. Would be nice to get a WCW era Mean Gene with a serious interviewer style headscan.

Great figure. I agree, the only criticism is that he doesn't have the mic with the old school logo.

The scan, the painted hands, the different yellows on the upper and lower pants (hope that's the flash or lighting)... eh, easy pass for the cost.

Part of the pants are molded in that khaki color, and part of the pants are painted khaki. Really weird idea imo Can you post a picture of him next to another wrestler?

Sweet figure, great job MDT! But Mattel's distribution blows hard, here you have a figure that would be in high demand, enough so that some sap paid $360 for one but Mattel seems unable to find a way to get this figure out to collectors that want it but they have no problem getting tons of figures out that no one wants.

Get this figure into a Battle Pack somehow Mattel. Or paint it slightly different and stick it the main line - This man is an icon.

You are spot on right Apoc, but it doesn't show in natural light looks good! I have more pics of him next to the legends on my Instagram.
