are you gonna correct perfects height? Probably not, because I don’t remember who’s calves I used to lower the Legend figure’s height way back when. But I am certain I don’t have another pair of those calves. So now I am just retro hide it on the shelf, by putting him behind a couple wrestlers and posing him in a wider leg stance to make him appear shorter. If I remember who’s calves I used I may do the it, but as of now no.

As amazing as Slim Jim Savage figure is, I'm glad I'm not on the hunt for it. This looks like the next figure to sky rocket on price, in the secondary market.

For the Sheik figure, the sticker left some residue but using the sticky side of the sticker I was able to dap the excess residue off easy. Also, to my surprise, both boxes came in great condition.

Mine will be here tomorrow, so I'm hoping that they'll both be easy to peel off and won't leave any residue.

I love what the True FX printing has done for beards.

Triple H definitely needs some fixing up. His left leg should be taped up and have a leg sleeve (can’t believe I just said that)
Has anyone tried putting the leather cap on his 1998 or WM15 heads?

To be fair, he didn't have the tape on his knee until Dec 1999, although it would have been nice. The shorter knee pads aren't perfect, but they're okay. He absolutely should have had the knee brace though...No excuse to leave that out.

What do you think about this yelling head sculpt vs the DM? I think the DM is better. I am not really feeling the UE screaming scam. Of the three UE scans it’s my least favorite. The DM was one of Mattel’s first scans to really capture emotion. To me this one is lifeless I don’t feel any emotion in it.

I'm not Triple H's number one fan, nor is he one of my favourite of all time, but I have to be honest I can't wait to get this figure! It looks incredible and I'm really pleased with all the accessories it comes with (considering the price tag I guess). I love these Ultimate Editions, I have Bret and Warrior and I've decided going forward if they keep doing one legend a set, I'll buy the legends. The figures are beautiful and after seeing them in person, I love the packaging.

I'm in the same boat, I have all the flashback UEs with no sign of stopping (HBK is pretty damn sweet) and each one just gets better than the last. Bret's up there with the DM as my favorite Hitman figure.
I honestly can't wait for my Triple H to come in, perfect representation of his peak run IMO.

Yeah, gotta swap the leg sleeves and the brace on. Conveniently I can just trade knee pads with the Retrofest Mr. Perfect haha. Still though, this is a figure I have wanted from them for a decade. No Way Out 2000 remains one of my very favorite matches ever. This is finally an update on the TTL figure and I'm grateful. I'm likely going to end up with two of these, which is rare for me. Thanks for the pics!
