Love the detail in the pants. Like that we're getting the WWECW Phoenix belt though I have no use for it other than to ogle. Hate that scan and blubber shirt. Have to use the cloth tees from the SS Hardy and a different scan, perhaps the FYE one.
Also boo the painted elbow pads...

That head is doo doo. Should of been a cloth shirt with the skull and crossbones on it.

That scan is one of the worst scans in the history of the WWE Mattel line. It literally looks like a cartoon. The Jakks LJN inspired figure looked more like Matt Hardy:

The lack of elbow pads and the paint kill this figure for me. If it wasn't for the ECW belt I'd pass.

Not bad. I never got the ECW punk so having another way to get the microphone is cool. The belt is great and the fig is alright.

I’m liking these scans. It’s not spot on though. The figure looks a lot cuter than Matt Hardy ever did 😂

That scan is one of the worst scans in the history of the WWE Mattel line. It literally looks like a cartoon. The head is a repaint of the SS 2018 Elite. It has good detail in the fade and facial hair. I just don't see that much resemblance to his time in WWECW. The shape is off and the smirk doesn't suit the fig. Like I said I might buy the Elite two-pack soon so I have a Matt head that would suit this figure.

I kind of get the painted on pads with this figure since his pads were always like connected with the tape. The scan is kind of cruddy, but I like everything else so it's a buy.

I believe the contract was up this year but then they got a 3 year extension. If I am mistaken someone please correct me.

Anybody else feel the belt is a bit undersized? I seem to remember the main plate being massive.
Still not a fan of that head sculpt even with the True FX.

Yeah i know this, but 3 years in terms of business and licensing deals is no time at all

It's ok I guess but not that exciting for a Ringside exclusive. I really like the deco on the paints but the gigantic shirt without the proper skull & bones makes it look cheap as hell. Glad they're getting that ECW belt out though.

Mattels not going anywhere I, and many others hope you're wrong As there are only 3 years left, a replacement will already have been discussed, and will need to be in place for a seamless transition

It's beautiful! And Matt Hardys figure is really nice too, and I really like the packaging! Sucks the the elbow pads are painted on like on one of the AOP figures. Hopefully that doesn't become a trend. The main reason for me getting this is for that ECW championship! Still can't believe we are getting it.
