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. Hogan, at least when he was younger, is a foot taller than Liger, so if theyre the same size...yikes! I wonder if they ever wrestled each other, or had any interaction at all... I Kinda feel that the Storm figures based on real people are kind of one-offs existing in their own scale. So I'm not expecting a drastic height difference between them. |

Liger is such a great wrestler for a figure and this figure is amazing

Looks like he's taller :/ than Nakamura. Can anybody confirm this? Or post side by side pics? MakaiClub |

Here's a little bit better scale pic. You can see Nakamura's waistline and actual top of his head are taller, but Liger is beefier and that's where the scale difference is most apparent. But personally I wouldn't want the Liger figure any smaller. If Mattel wants to make better detailed and sculpted figures, I won't complain... Attachment DeletedSomeone needs to give the people what they want: pictures of Liger and Pillman Yes! I'm dying to see this comparison myself. |

Scale looks fine to me and yeah liger has always been a beefier crusierweight / jr heavyweight. Looks great still not sure what shelf he goes on my display when I get him.
Curious how he scales with super7s njpw.

no worries here where he's going in my collection - WCW - right next to Brian Pillman, In fact it was 29 years ago on Christmas day in 1991 where he beat Pillman for the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship! Then they had that incredible match at Superbrawl II in Feb of the following year.
Please Storm Collectibles make a Great Muta next!!!

I only collect 80s legends so not really a place in my collection. Even though he started the gimmick in 1989,I consider him a 90s legend. |

I feel like this look is a more modern Liger - post 2010 so I’m gonna likely go with a misc shelf. But idk it could work for any I guess |

Mine just got delivered a day early! It's a holiday miracle!
Looks awesome at first glance. Can't wait to get it home and let it breathe. One of my all-time favorites, it is so cool to have a figure of Liger.
