To me the heads look fine. It’s the fact that it looks like he’s wearing a bra is what does it for me

Not trying to be funny but the jakks ring giant Hogan had a nice head scan imo.

The best Hogan head sculpt ever made is the Unlimited figure. Too bad it would like giant on a Mattel figure.

His Jakks TNA scan is ranked high up there too IMO. (Ignore the dollar store body/articulation lol)

At least that one has hair^
The Jakks wwe one is awful and you’ll never convince me otherwise. It’s derpy, lifeless, and probably smells like cigarettes, doodoo and chocolate...

The screaming head is good (in pictures; I don't have it in hand (yet)). I think the other two could have been better.
I think the nose is a bit too large, and they could have been a bit more aged (some age lines on his cheeks and a bit thinner face overall, as he was almost 50 at the time and looked different than '80s Hulk).
Like others have said, the skintone is too light, and for me, the beard should be more black instead of dark grey or brown.
It's kind of nitpicking, though, as he looks great with the glasses and bandana.

I really like this figure and will definitely be buying it, but I too find it a bit “off”..

The only thing that I feel is “off” about the Mattel scans/sculpts are you really don’t see his ears when it’s a straight on view. I wish they stuck out slightly so you could see them.

Some of y’all have serious rose tinted glasses on for Jakks. Mattel isn’t perfect but these heads are better than Jakks Classics

Disagree. The screaming head is really good. The other two are pretty off though. In my opinion they'd have been better off painting a beard on E34 head and tossing that in than using the silly HOF head. I don’t know why, but aside from the screaming head Hogan is a guy that they just haven’t been able to capture...at all. I sure hope that they scrap all of the Hogan heads that they have (minus the screamer) before they release more Elites/Ultimates. Feel free to toss these onto Basics though. The 80s likenesses may be even worse. As for Jakks, far and away the best head was CS 8 Hollywood. It was absolutely perfect. Back and Bad was fine. The expression was kind of goofy, but at least the likeness was there, which is more than I can say for any of the Mattel heads (minus the screamer). Back and bad is goofy I agree ,but atleast the likeness is there like you said. I think it’s all in the eyes,maybe if they were painted different . Like the U.K Cody with ring his likeness is there because the eyes are painted way better, unlike series 1.

I know I know the Ultimate edition Hollywood Hogan is the greatest thing since sliced bread...but to me his likeness isn’t there..at all ..:without the glasses on atleast . It’s crazy to me that nobody’s mentioned this. This looks like a headscan from early Mattel 2010ish that just had the new scan tech put on it.. Jakks Hollywood Hogan Back and Bad /Smackdown draft is the best headscan ever for Hollywood Hogan by far,nobody has been able to touch it since it came out. I know they’re more detailed but likeness wise Jakks back and bad/Smackdown draft >>>>>>>>>>>>Mattel UE>>>>>>Storm I love the figure otherwise, seeing the technology they have now and some of the scans that look just like the wrestler I wonder how is this one so far off is beyond me.. If you’ve never seen the Back and bad Jakks/Smackdown draft check it out,I’m gonna put that headscan on my UE when I get it You are correct. In no way did it live up to the hype and the fact that they actually REUSED a 2015 scan is unpardonable.

The heads aren’t perfect but look ok to me. Have to wait until I actually get the figure. Only thing I can definitely see wrong is the color. He was super tan at the time. Obviously I can see why they wouldn’t go that route though Um why That R3 scan is basically identical to how he looked in Smackdown SYM - goofy as hell.
