Gentlemen, rest your sphincters.  Ted Dibiase is 6'1", Bull Nakano is 5'7". Add to that Hasbro's scale was: well there was no scale, just make sure Andre and Gonzalez were taller than everybody. That's the scale. And finally, its the first female figure in hasbro form. Think about how a female figure would have looked if hasbro did one. They'd be a lot smaller than the men. Having said all that, Hayabusa is a tad big. But I think this Bull Nakano is awesome. |

Got my Bull Nakano in today. Have to say, I really like it. It looks great so I'm really happy with it!  |

I got my Nakanos today (opened one straight away!!) and it's a really good figure, solid outing for the first ever (across any line) female character
yeah, it's smaller than some of their other figures, but looks good standing alongside others as demonstrated above with DiBiase
the one I opened has some blue overlap on the teeth, but the MOC one has a perfectly painted mouth with blue liner and white teeth, so glad I made the decision to open the one I did, as it's bound to get played with by my kids LOL!
will see how Luna works out next year alongside Bam Bam! just waiting now for the preorder dates for blue Haystacks and Big Daddy as they're getting pride of place on my work desk

WOOF. Geez, now I'm regretting preordering her. And worried how the others will turn out, I have Adam Bomb ordered too. Guess I'll leave final verdict til I have her in hand, but this doesn't look good at all. Looks like 3 figures from 3 different companies in this pic. Say what you will about ZST, but I appreciate that he doesn't take orders until he shows fully painted protos. looks like the UK's figures are arriving in hands this week, so not sure where you are, but they're definitely entering the mail system now (mine arrived today) and I've order 2 of every Chella figure so far, and although the initial reaction last week made me concerned, actually having Nakano in hand and being able to check out the figure against a range of others, including Retros like Ambrose and Austin as well as Hasbros like the Mountie or Hogan, it's not a bad figure overall considering its their first attempt for a female lineup
next up, Luna.... and although yeah Nakano is small, I have no objections to ordering 2 Luna figs when they go up for preorder
make your own mind up, but the whole line so far has been great - Aldis' hands/feet are too small, head is too big, then Meanie/Josh was a great set in comparison, then Hayabusa was too tall, Nakano is too slight, you can literally see the evolution as each figure is released and they fix something from the last one (but then inadvertently add a new complaint) so just check it out when you get it, and I'm sure the Adam Bomb will be awesome too

I'm in the UK and a lot of the guys on Twitter have got theirs today too so they're on their way. I think seeing it in comparison to Hasbro's, it puts my doubt at rest over the size. Hasbro never made any females so we'd have no idea what scale they'd be. I think Chella deserves credit for making a female and trying to get it in its proper scale.

She looks great next to Dibiase. Hasbro we’re kind of all over size wise, and these look closer to the Hasbro line than the competitors. It all feels like the one dude here works with or is buddies with ZS. It’s odd.

As I said you can’t be too picky with this style of figure considering hasbro yoko was bigger than adam Bomb and 123 kid same height as Borga etc

I got mine today (In the UK). She felt a tad small against the Chella figures, but fits great with Habro. Her eyes are painted wonky though. But not as bad as I was expecting.

My Bull arrived today. It’s a really cool figure; but for me it is a little on the small side. It will still fit in nicely with the hasbros, but hopefully future ones will be a tad taller. Here it is next to Rick Rude - as I plan to use a Rude to make Alundra Blayze at some point.  |

This is a great comparison photo -- like you said, it looks good -- but a bit too small. I hope they learn for future ones like Luna, which I might buy depending on photos I see....

For anyone in the UK, Wrestling Trader has the Jay White's up for pre-order but it actually works out cheaper to order them from Ringside so I'm gonna get mine from them. But if anyone was interested, thought I'd post it.

But could be good for a custom…. |

But could be good for a custom…. From Ringside? Postage via FedEx is $16 and with the 10% off the order code it works out at $80 which is around £58-60 for both. I’d imagine it’s the same cost if you were just wanting one. From Wrestling Trader I think it’s £4ish but I’m not 100% sure. |

I ordered one Jay White from Ringside to the UK (with the 10% discount), you can use use Fedex International Saver shipper which was $9.62 bringing the total to $41.11 (so £30.84 including postage, still cheaper than Trader pre postage)

I'll probably use that instead to save a couple quid. Thanks for that info  |
