ugh painted hands! Why no glove mold? Why not use Undertaker's glove cuffs for the look of the gloves Savage wore?

Is there something off with his boots and tassels or is it just me? He didnt cover the laces with them. Toybiz did it right... This figure looks awesome, I cannot wait to get it they really have nailed it. One thing with Mattel, the tassels aren't great, like how much better are the ToyBiz ones? way more realistic looking all the way back from '98. But still this exclusive is awesome.

Very nice! Is this using the HOF Hogan torso/arms?

Why did the leave off the detail on the bandanna ? Would it have killed them to draw a few white lines on an exclusive figure ?? SMH

Man that is one awesome figure.
I'll have Buckley's trying to get it for a reasonable price though.

The tassels have always looked bad. Has anyone had success removing them, cutting away the front to expose the boot laces, and reattaching?

I tried doing that with my first e38 Macho and ending up screwing them up. The tassels look a little too thick on the open slots and just makes it look like rubber covers instead. I would definitely wish to see someone take another stab at it. I was considering at one point using real tassels, but have no idea where to find them at the craft section.

Was hoping to do something with the Hart Foundation Bulldog I have arriving today, but didn't want to jump headfirst into screwing it up.

Ive done that tassel thing on a few machos. You just need to make one cut in the center to be able to remove the tassels and put them back on. Put the tassels back on the boot and mark out both laces of the laces and then cut them straight
The tassels will look thick where you cut them so youll need to carefully thin the edges out with a knife
Then use krazy glue to glue them back on
I would share pics but photobucket

I've seen your pics before, I'm sure and it looks good. Sounds quite compicated though!

I havent yet but I did it on a Shane Douglas figure. I'll just cut some like these but thinner and make sure they have the laces open.

Looks great. I wish the bandanna was fully painted, but it's not a huge gripe of mine. I'll likely pick one up in the coming months. Lots of exclusives to catch up on first.

On the Wolfpac Macho, it looks like the feet laces are painted red but the shin laces are kept white. You'll probably have to paint the laces to make it look right.

Do you guys think the Toybiz Macho vest will look okay on this figure? I have a loose one somewhere and an MOC one, and if it looks good, I plan on displaying this with the vest. I know it might wind up a little small, but some of the old Toybiz stuff - like AJ Styles' vest - work pretty well on Mattel figures.
