Wow! Those reveals are so awesome! Heenan looks fantastic! I’m still blown away by that Onita. Epic is really, really bringing the heat with their sculpts and details. Bravo.

Boris and Bobby Heenan are amazing. Some good stuff coming from Epic.

These are looking great.
Surely that Heenan will end up being one of the most popular figures any of the companies will release.

Didn't know there was a Boris coming, that looks cool! Any word on a matching Volkoff? Don't know what his WWE status is? I'd love to see a matching Volkov figure too....loved that tagteam |

Great reveals by Epic and the Bobby looks unreal. I was showing my brother who was a fellow hasbro collector all of my recent buys the last year of so. His thoughts as a non-figure die hard
Epic "Those figures suck"
Grapplers & Gimmicks "I like the guys but they don't seem as good, and don't have the hasbro feel" (in reference to the hasbro shine)
Thought Zombie and Epic were both great with Double J and Powers of Pain as his 2 favorites. Really excited to see where this line goes, and hope they do a deluxe Haku . They could even redo King version and I would be more than happy

Bobby Heenan is great. It's also nice to see the DDEP arms have small inserts on them to keep them from falling off. Can't wait to get both.

They all look great, my only criticism is I think Heenan looks a bit too young in the face

Outside of airbrushing some minor features, there isn’t a way to age Bobby from this era. That is how he looked. He had a round face and some minor wrinkles across his forehead. http://instagram.com/p/C4DXbaHMRwU  :format(jpeg)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/51578867/heenan03-5056732-1_2-.0.0.jpg)  |

That Heenan is unreal.
The biggest want of any figure for me, I think Epic are producing the best figures at the moment.
Gorilla Monsoon would be awesome 👌

Hopefully they get Nikolai. He may still be signed with the WWE, but I cannot imagine he's a long-term signing for the WWE, so he'll probably be available at some point. If they do get Nikolai, I hope they do a Bolsheviks version, USA supporter (1990) version, and a Million Dollar Corporation version. |

Ah, before this closer look, I thought this was going to have the Macho King type pull back clothesline design, guess not though. |

I agree, really need Bolsheviks Nikoli at least, baby face would be ok too if they do a 2nd or 3rd. But, really want the Bolsheviks, and the Mattel really wouldn't fit in with the Epic Boris. |

I read on insta that they have a new sculptor, and wow what a difference. These new sculpts are Zombie level. Really great to see! I hope we get some redo’s of Demolition, Haku and ‘93 British Bulldog. Those sculpts feel a bit ‘happy meal’ compared to their new stuff.
