The face sculpt might be good but the paint is bizarre. Or the sculpt is bizarre and paint is ok. I don’t know but the totality of it I can’t even display it looks so weird. Just as bad—the color of the jacket is some Muted dull lavender like the hall of fame Simmons. Another botched cool tone color. Look at the box pic. He wore a vibrant light baby blue. Between the head and the jacket this figure is a big fail. Not even the platform accessory can save it. Which is also oddly colored

I like the face sculpt...Looks like him holding in a laugh on TNT or something, but yeah the tone of that jacket is way off.

It does look weird even though I'll still get it. Going off topic here but is the scale of that basic Shawn Michaels correct or is the Vince too tall?

Yup I got mine on Monday and what a major disappointment. The height is ridiculous. Can be fixed with Baf Heyman's legs but the gray is slightly lighter.

I recall someone saying that Vince has ultimate say on figures made of himself. It's not outside the realm of possibility that maybe he insisted on his figure being taller. It's not that big a dealbreaker, I'm happy with mine even if the jacket is a little too dark. My head is perfect though.

Dude was jacked but I think he took some creative license.

face is a lil creepier than i thought it would be.
The jacket is def the wrong color. But since Vince has worn like a million different blazers. He's def worn this color before. Maybe not with that WWF logo tho.
How is he so tall? Was the old TRU Vince this tall too?

They’ve made every Vince too tall and overly muscular. I wouldn’t be surprised if he requests it tbh but I don’t know the guy so I’m not saying it’s true

I don’t always pass on flashbacks but when I do, they’re named Tugboat, Bezerker and now Vince.

Scale is just out the window these days, like nobody at mattel is paying attention at all. Sad.

I think its the lips on the Vince figure that I don't like...they're way too wide. When I look at that figure I think I'm looking at comedian Mario Cantone.

The face sculpt might be good but the paint is bizarre. Or the sculpt is bizarre and paint is ok. I don’t know but the totality of it I can’t even display it looks so weird. Just as bad—the color of the jacket is some Muted dull lavender like the hall of fame Simmons. Another botched cool tone color. Look at the box pic. He wore a vibrant light baby blue. Between the head and the jacket this figure is a big fail. Not even the platform accessory can save it. Which is also oddly colored
