With that price, I'll just wait for Super7 to make a Liger... Yeah, Super7 doesn’t currently have rights to make legends from what I believe. Liger is an active member of the roster.

I would ask TJ in the S7 thread if I were you, but I'm not expecting Liger from them. We're only guaranteed 12 figures and there are only 8 spots left. I'm sure Naito, Ibushi, Kenta and Jay White are taking half of those spots. So it's really down to 4 slots left and that's cutting a ton of guys out already. If S7 keeps the line going past the 12 guys then I'm sure it becomes a different story, but I don't see Liger as a priority for them yet. All of this assuming they can even make him, because I'm pretty sure the anime licensing thing is accurate as it pertains to him and Tiger Mask.

I noticed Ringside has a release date of 1/20 for him but everywhere else lists a 12/19 release date so I think Lyger should be dropping soon.

Came home from work to find a package from Hong Kong sitting at my door. This is a great figure! Very happy with the sculpting and paint. Looks excellent, no QC issues. Crisp detailed sculpt, satisfying posability but still nice and chunky like you would want from a beefy character like Liger. Scales well with Mattel but puts them to shame. Mattel figures look like cheap garbage next to this guy, honestly. Pic attached. Attachment DeletedCan't wait to see how Super 7 compares.

He honestly looks way too tall next to Nakamura in that picture. I don’t really care but if you’re a nitpicky scale guy I’m guessing this is going to bother you. Maybe like a half inch off? Maybe a little more? Hard to tell but it seems that way to me.

I believe Hogan is the same size as Elite Scott Hall. So pretty much right on the money.

Can anybody post some side by side comparisons? Liger looks a bit big in height and bulk compared to Elites, but I think it's close enough for my taste. I doubt we'll be seeing a Mattel or Super 7 version any time soon, if ever.

Anyone in the UK/Northern Ireland ordered this?
I live in Liverpool but got it sent to my house in Northern Ireland. Says it will be there on Friday.
Wanna know if anyone got theirs yet

Yeah he looks a little tall, but that might just be because he's in front of Nakamura...Can anyone post a pic of Liger next to Hogan?

If he is the same size as Hogan, I'm hoping that means Hogan would be able to use Lyger's hands, specifically those extended hands.
