Maybe it’s just me, but having the figure in hand... I see no major issues with it. The only problem I have with it is it’s Riddle. Seriously in the RSC pics posted above the arms look short, but if I imagine if his hands (fingers) were extended and not “gripping” the arms would fall to where they should lay on the thigh. Then I see your pic with the open hands and they look correct.

Drake’s arms look too long for him (Drake). They are almost to his knee with the gripping hands. If he had open hands they would be past his knee. And his hands are too large also making his arms look longer.

And his hands are too large also making his arms look longer. It is definitely that the hands are too big for Drake. I will try a pair of women's hands on him. I ended up switching Riddle's arms with Damien Mizdow and the figure looks much better.

Matt has a HUGE torso and skinny arms in real life. I’m actually glad the made it accurate to how he’s actually proportioned.

I didn't switch any shoulders. I just switched the arms on Riddle and used Becky's hands on Drake.

Fortunately, arm swaps are one of the easiest things to customize.

Some changes... What arms did you end up using ? And did you also do a shoulder swap as well?

I think the stock parts looked better.

I’m still over here wanting bigger arms for Bray elites for the past 7 years.

The arms look fine to me. Riddle is super lean, but not really jacked.
But I do wish Mattel would invest tooling in more arm molds. This is less of an issue for me than seeing somebody who was pretty bulky like Stone Cold have the same twig arms they use on cruiserweights.

God the nonsense people complain about in these posts. Absolutely nothing wrong with the figure.

I’m also not a fan. From the side they’re very tiny compared to his torso. He doesn’t have the biggest arms by any means in real life, but they kind of seem like baby arms compared to the size of his torso and legs.
I think the big issue is that the arms don’t seem to be made to go with his torso. The holes in the torso for his arms still have some open space around his arms more than other figures. It just looks awkward without his jacket. That’s just my opinion of course.
I’m not a big fan of his scan either but I can live with it. I’m comfortable swapping heads on figures but have never swapped arms before. If anyone can send some tips I’d appreciate it!

His arms are too small but I don’t think it’s the end of the world, it’s a solid figure outside of that and the calves. I do wish paint apps were better
