look up Elite 27 RVD that’s the only one we got That's (E27) not a bad attire in fairness. Wouldn't be one I'd generally associate with Van Dam though all the same. Hopefully the chase here will be a more 'recognisable' version.
I believe the E91 i posted above is his ECW look? I don't think it was really worn in WWE?
ECW Guilty As Charged 2001 (vs Jerry Lynn), WWF Invasion 2001 (vs Jeff Hardy) and WWE King of the Ring 2002 (vs Jericho and Lesnar) we’re the main times he wore it. Idk if any others |

Never thought of RVD as a chase with a different outfit! Have they done this singlet yet? (the one i most associate him with) Holy crap dude, is that figure meant to represent that photo? Is that what Jakks did to yall? I better never hear anymore "mattel sucks" stuff. Wow. No Jakks just used random generic photos on the boxes. Whatever the latest official profile pic was for the wrestler made it onto the box.
But Jakks were the sh/ts alright. Mattel have made some stupid mistakes, but Jakks seemed to just not care at all.

Idk if any others The only dates you are missing are Smackdown 5-27-03 in a tag match with Mysterio vs the Dudleys, and TNA Hardcore Justice 2010 against Sabu. |

I will say this, Mattel better pump out them 91 RVDs, cause it's gonna sell like friggin hotcakes. Hogan will too, but he will have his base allotment compared to 50/50 split with rvd and his chase.

Why did they have to keep using the damn HOF torso and smaller arms on Hogan? He was waaaay bigger that that in 2005…even in 2002. If Hulk Still Rules is ever released, if they use that Sheamus upper body the figure will be a huge disappointment, kind of like this one. For 2002 they should use the original Hogan torso and Lesnar arms. For 2005 Hogan was bigger in the body, so they should’ve used the Lesnar torso and arms. I guess the boys at Mattel just aren’t fans of their biggest merch mover of 2021 brother!

I have lost my trust in the product lately, no more pre-orders. I will only order after in hand images of the figures.

They made a new torso which works wonders for Hogan and then revert to the same torso that we've been complaining about for the last couple of years. Makes no sense to me. I'll be waiting for '02-03 Hogan. We also need a new headscan for '03 Hogan. I'm tired of the Hall of Fame smiling head, they've used it too many times. Wish RVD would of been an Ultimate Edition and had a new scan, but I'm happy we're getting this attire. EDIT: Does anyone have pics of what attire Hogan's is based off? Reminds me of the TNA attire, the tye dye seems off. |

Reminds me of the TNA attire, the tye dye seems off. I find the whole “spreadsheets” thing BS as they have been using two different torsos for Rocky depending on the era (one for a younger Rock and and one for a more modern Rock). No reason why they can’t do the same for Hogan. The only time I’d accept the “Sheamus torso” for a Hogan figure is a 1993-1997 Hogan. He was clearly off the juice for a good portion of that time, and didn’t seem to start gaining his mass back until 1998. |
