The Elite 63 Dusty and WCW Ring Elite Dusty look very similar but have different headscans and color of kneepads/elbow pad. Are these supposed to represent different "eras" of Dusty? I'm trying to determine if I need both and/or just the more "iconic" look. Elite 63 has the accessories but something about the headscan on the WCW Ring Elite is intriguing.
If you combine them you might get GAB 1986 but seperately I'm not sure if they're supposed to depict specific moments.

Personally I prefer the WCW Ring version. It has a younger looking head. The e63 is cool too but uses the same head as the Legends polka dot version so it's like a flat out repaint.

I think the head on the WCW ring Dusty Rhodes looks terrible...But I guess that's just me.

I personally think the WCW ring version has a much better head scan, but the Elite 63 is a better figure overall. Do a swap and you'd have a perfect NWA Dusty, IMO.

Swapped wcw ring head on the elite 63 body. I also gave him one red and one black knee pad to depict a late 85/early 86look when his foot got injured by the horsemen. |
