Vince’s face scan looks like Teddy Perkins.

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.
"I demand full, sensual lips on my figure, PAL."
I don't mind that this Vince is some kind of Greek god, but I wish the suit was still powder blue.

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? Both lol Vince is like 6’8” and Shawn is like 5’8” I think the platform's there so the wrestlers don't look too short next to him.

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 Thought the exact same thing, it looks like he has duck lips.

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. lol Mario Cantone I remember watching him on this show called Steampipe Alley. I actually hated the show but I'd always watch it lol

Scale is just out the window these days, like nobody at mattel is paying attention at all. Sad. I dont know how long Mattel is contracted to make these figures but I hope this isn't turning into Jakks' last few years where they started phoning in the deco or lack there of on the figures.

I think they have the contract for a while still going forward. I'm not saying they should lose it either, but just keep to the standard they set for themselves.

Would’ve preferred a rerelease of the TRU mail away or a semi modern Vince. That Vince is awful haha

Oh god...Why is he so tall? Vince has manlove for 7 footers so maybe he told Mattel to make his figure one

...so, aside from the duck-lips, the jacket being way too dark and Vince being taller than Hulk Hogan... it's a great figure.

Sit him behind the announcer's table with Jakks Jesse Ventura and the height won't be a problem. Put Gene on the platform, he belongs there anyway.

The head sculpt is pretty bad. I didn't even notice the color issue until you mentioned it but it's definitely off.

How does the figure compare to Jakks CS16? Vince McMahon?
