Updated with The KotR Hitman. Loose pics added to first page.  I really like this figure, but there’s a couple (4) things that keep it from being a perfect figure. Here’s my initial quick thoughts on this figure. First...It’s not Mr Perfect (for all the comedians that will say it’s not perfect. lol) But seriously here’s the few things holding it back. One is a major issue and the other three are minor things. 1. Again they painted the flesh tone on the torso instead of molding it in flesh tone plastic. This will always be a major issue. Luckily I just display mine so the torso won’t chip over time. 2. His hair. Like all Mattel Bret figures it looks odd. I get what they are going for, but the strands are molded way to thick and look like dreads. 3.The pink wrist tape is way to long. It should be half the length they made it. 4. They didn’t give Bret socks. This is a major pet peeve of mine. If a guy wore socks above his boots I feel the figure should represent that. It used to piss me off whenever Jakks would release Piper, Bret and Dynamite Kid without them. Because to me that was always part of their look/attires. So I would always paint the on myself. |

Except for the painted torso that has once again ruined taking pictures of a singlet torso wrestler, I like the figure.

They match almost perfectly in natural lighting, but the camera flash is where it brightens the paint on the torso. |

That Angle is giving me Jakks flashbacks, yikes. I don't even think Angle had stubble when he had that match

I also have one bone to pick with the KotR Bret. Every picture I've seen of them, as well as my own, has a poor centering job with the Hart logo on his chest. way off. Good thing he's wearing the robe and it hides it a bit. Still no excuse for that.

The logo wasn’t in the center of his top at KitR it was more towards his left side.  |

I thought the same thing about the logo until I looked at the picture of him on the box.

That first Seth picture looks like someone just learning to photoshop cut and pasted a face on a Mattel figure
They may need to rethink using this technology. Just my opinion but they have ruined that Kurt, Shane & Seth with it. Not sure who else they have used it on so far but those are bad!
Your pics did get me to order the KOTR Bret Hart though immediately after looking at your thread. Great figure

I think Seth’s face came out great. Probably the best one they have done so far.

I think with the exception of Kurt and the one Uso they all look very nicely when you are just looking at the figure in hand. But all except Seth and the other Uso don’t look nearly as nice when they are blown up/zoomed in pics. It the photos they don’t look nearly as nice.

I dunno how anyone could like that Seth Rollins scan even with the printed face. Absolutely terrible and I've never seen Seth pull that face in my life. Looks nothing like him

Who is driving while you play with your figure? My wife. I get to be chauffeured today because my truck’s A/C died last week. And at 6’5” I can’t fit behind the wheel of her car.  |

She must know you already have that figure. Oh she knows. Believe me SHE KNOWS! She told me that this was the absolute last time I could buy it. But we will see because she said the same thing the last three times I bought it. We don’t go to this Kmart often, but the last three times we have gone there I have bought one on sale. Lol I wish the Main Event Ring with Goldberg that’s been sitting there for the last few times I would be on sale for 50% off because then I might get it, but it’s only $10 off. $110 down to $100. |
