I for one plan on selling my Storm Hogan once I have my Mattel in hand. I don't need the perfectly unnatural rounded shoulders (which is an often overlooked flaw) nor the infamous floating crotch piece.
As for those who say you aren't supposed to "play" with Storm figures, then why the heck do they have so much articulation?? You can't even move the Storm Hogan without it looking like it's falling apart at the waste. Just my opinion; I bought the thing and am disappointed. But I did buy Storm's Ali and Tyson figures and they are A++ with cloth shorts covering the crotch.

Guess it’s a wait and see. UE should be better as it will be released how many years after Storms nwo version?!
That said storms Hulk Rules version were better then Mattel. Like said above Mattel’s hulkster were released many years prior to storms. Technology improves so you’d expect the more recent release to be a better product.

Yes most definitely. Storm is great, don't get me wrong, but I never liked their Hollywood sculpt.
The Storm fig is just too big IMO. It served its purpose, but the ball's in Mattel's court, and they're firing on all cylinders

Storm Collectibles figures look better than Mattel, IMO, but one is meant to be a higher end collector's figure and the other is meant to be a toy that can stand up to a kid playing rough with it, so it's apples and oranges.
To me, putting a Storm Collectibles figure with the rest of Mattel's nWo, it's very obvious that they're made by two different companies, so the UE is still a must-buy.

During Steves Live Unboxing last night he said he feels the best Mattel Figure ever made is this Hollywood...this thing is going to be incredible. The wait is killing me!

I think they will both have their pros and cons for example. The storm has the t shirt and the UE will have multiple head scans. I’ll go with the UE

Hoping next Monday.

The UE boxes have obviously all been very uniform up to now...I wonder if this one will have an NWO edit? Perhaps as simple as the same boxing but appearing to be ‘Vandalised’ spray Painted over with NWO.
Probably make a few MOC cry if it means you can’t see the figure too well but I think it would be cool.

Series 3-6 were the 2020 collection so we probably will see a package change starting with series 7.
