It looks like Hangman has the same figure from the boots up, so with the new boots he jumped up in size. Real bummer, because I would have bought the figure just for the accessories.

I'm wondering now if a boot swap with series 2 will fix things. Also a feet swap back with series 5 to take care of the clown shoes. Of course this couldn't come at a worst time because S2 hangman has been peg warming our shelves here, but we're on lockdown and all non-essentials (toys etc.) are off limits to purchase. So I can't even get him for the parts haha.

At no point in time did I even entertain the possibility that SCU would not have tag titles

Luchasaurus is incredible. Definitely will be among the top figures of the year. I’ve been excited to get a figure of him since he first showed up.
Jungle Boy is going to be underrated I think. He doesn’t have flashy gear but the figure and his face are spot on. Maybe the most lifelike figure of the AEW line so far.
So mixed on Hangman. The height seems to be way off but otherwise it looks fantastic. The gear and accessories are great and apart from the scale it’s a huge improvement over S2. I feel they haven’t really nailed his headscan still, though. It only slightly resembles him IMO

Wasn’t worried about the tag belts not being included, it was more not wanting to be disappointed with the appearance. The world belt is spot on, the women’s is blah, the TNT looks good. Wasn’t sure which way these would go 😂

Those all look incredible. Yeah Hangman's way too tall, but w/e. They look really nice, and a little bit of display creativity can hide his giant stature.
Also I feel a little bit of vindication for how many people thought it was insane that I kept saying SCU would be very early in the line and with the tag titles. They came 2 series' later than I expected, but it's still quite early.

Man, Jungle Boy is amazing.
I think I like the head on the first Hangman better. That said, probably displaying this one with the bandana up anyway. The height is rough. It looks like the boots are taller, but it’s a weird thing to get wrong. Hangman is definitely getting more figures. This one feels like another place holder until the next one comes along and they can get it perfect.
Happy with the set. 4 must haves, and I’m particularly excited to add JE.

I probably would’ve passed on Mox if I knew it was going to be almost a re-release. The pants have a little more color to them but otherwise it’s pretty much the same figure with a (IMO) worse headscan. I wish the regular and chase versions were swapped. Hopefully his next figure has chest hair also.
I’ll pass on SCU I think. I find Sky and Kaz super boring and I don’t mind waiting longer for the titles, which do look great. If Kaz had an alternate head that had hair I might’ve been convinced to get them. I really like the hoody that comes with Sky. I’ll still get a Christopher Daniels whenever that day comes. I may end up changing my mind on getting them but for now I’m going to pass.
Couldn’t be more excited for Jurassic Express, and while Hangman isn’t perfect I’m looking forward to having a figure of his in his new gear. Hopefully they do him justice in their next attempt. I think I like his new headscan a little more but it’s still off for sure.
I think this is now the point in the line where unless it’s a new name I’m looking forward to or something I think will be a must have for me, I’m going to wait for photos before preordering.

Hangman's scale doesn't bother me much TBH, though I generally tend to be slightly less concerned with scale than most. As long as it's in the relative ballpark, I'm fine. I think JE are the highlights of the set. Luchasaurus looks amazing, and Jungle Boy looks great TBH. SCU are fine, though I wish Daniels was made first. Honestly, the thing that bothers me in the set is that the Chase Mox is so superior to the regular.
