Bill... MattelDesignTeam you have tall basic boots. Ted Dibiase had them in Entrance Greats like 7 years ago. What happened? Locked away in a vault? |

So a basic version of RSC Macho King with the DM head. These basic re-releases of elites recently have been underwhelming.

Short boots, what an f'n joke.
Another case of Mattel having the rights parts, but refusing to use them for some stupid reason.

Would have liked the glasses perhaps but it looks great moc short boots aside. Blue AJ and silver tights Dolph both look great too. Rock, cena and Sami all look meh.
Can't wait for these to hit though.

Lmao, I knew he was going to have the short boots despite having a basic version of the tall boots. Vintage Mattel.
I wish we could get a legitimate answer as to why these kind of part choices are made.

If they were gonna convert an old elite to a basic then why not WM7? Woulda been the better choice IMO. Plus Bill loves WM7 Macho v Warrior. You'd think he woulda done that fig over RSC King

Jeez, stop with the freaking repeat attires, it kills secondary value and is boring. I'm not a monetary collector who is going to resell but it is fun having a figure that is valued a little more than others. It make toy runs boring. I was going to pick this one up, but I don't need to now. If this had been the pink or yellow checker attire I would have been all over it.

That's weak. We all knew it would have the short boots too. That new head without glasses and bandana is exposed to how weird it looks. It is the least like Savage head they've done. They could have made a multitude of Macho King attires but gave us one we already have. But hey, this one is cheap to produce.

Realistically the number of attires they could choose from is probably quite small due to the limited budget that basics come with. I understand why people are ticked but did you seriously expect a basic figure would come with a detail or deco heavy design?! I don't know every single attire Macho wore but from what I recall most of his attires were quite flashy, with intricate designs that Bill would not be able to replicate in a basic figure that comes with a smaller budget. Elites come with a bigger budget but even that was not big enough for Bill to include accessories (E38 & HOF did not come with a shirt).

I will buy this in a heart beat, awesome. My son plays A LOT so basics are great for that. Elites are sometimes a little flimsy. He likes Macho King, so this is good. Thanks Mattel.

A torso and legs cast in pink or yellow with some black paint applications surely would be within budget? |

I missed the original so i'll pick it up. But have to agree with most of you here, the repeat attires is kind of a buzzkill.

The color is nice and will spice up my shelf. Not the best but not the worst.

Did he ever wear this attire? I thought he'd been dressing like an effeminate cowboy long before he became king.
