Good. The thicker torso works better for a 2005 Hulk. Not sure why they didn't give him the updated skin tone though... I noted this as well too. I’m hoping it’s the survivor series Hogan or the Kane torso. I absolutely hate the Sheamus torso. Tan skin and a new headscan would of worked wonders too. I’m hoping we get an ‘03 Hogan too. I hate that they used the 1993 head for a 2005 Hogan...If they had to reuse a head, they should have went with the Elite 34 one.

Hogan will have the Hof torso. Check out Steve on Nick Storm review on YouTube.

The second RVD was not shown. Make of that what you will. There is nothing to make of it.

Check out Steve on Nick Storm review on YouTube. I agree. We need a new Hogan head head to represent his ‘02/‘03 run and on. I just saw the interview. Truly sucks that they went with the HOF torso. Kane torso works much better imo.

As always ... love WWE Elite figures. Love Mattel. Sad we don't have new to the line legends. It really seems odd and disappointing for collectors to not get the many legends from the great history of WWF - WWE- WCW. Hope somehow this can change.

If that is the DM Hogan crotch and legs, there’s no way they could use the Sheamus torso on it. It’s way too thin. It just won’t match up at all.

That’s why I’m confused too, however you can tell they’re the DM Hogan legs from the crotch piece. I hope it has the DM torso. There’s no reason for Hulk to be sporting the Sheamus torso.

I went and watched the interview and the question asked is about part choices, more specifically about E91 Hogan. Steve doesn’t directly say he definitely has the HOF torso, but basically says that it was a Bill choice as to what parts for which era of Hogan. But again, if we can see that he’s got the DM body from the waist down, odds are it’s fully DM. That crotch piece doesn’t take other torsos without major modifications.

I thought Batista was in the new Legends Ultimate Edition Waves, not the regular waves. I handfull of times from 1988-1989. g alt="" style="max-width:100%;" src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/97/44/ce/9744cec42a3dfedb99decb7ada78d000.jpg"] See how his boots meet the bottom of his knee pad? Mattel can't. Agreed. Mattel has messed up a lot of Savage's basic figures.

Wow, that Hogan is…. not good.
Every Hogan that isn’t from 1993-early 1997 should have Lesnar arms, and any from 2002 on should have Lesnar’s torso as well, but that likely will never happen. They could’ve at least used one of the Hollywood heads and maybe tossed in the E34 head as an alternate (or vise versa)…but there is no excuse for not using the skin tone that they created specifically for Hogan figures. This is probably either the most disappointing or second most disappointing figure of the year. Its either this or the Amazon Hogan. I suppose it could be worse, but damn if they don’t do Hogan dirty with the part choices.

So… according to one online retailer they are refunding all chase RVD orders due to cancellation by Mattel of the figure. I’m seeing some online nonsense on Instagram about it but take it for what it’s worth

Ignoring the absolute bat crap insanity that has occurred over RVD on this forum since I was here last...
Shotzi is amazing and a must have.
I'm totally buying one of those Rock figures for the Jersey. I think the one he wore was modified but it's good enough for a new flashback Shane.
Trying to figure out why Sami has black hair? It looks red in the package but the official pic it's black. I didn't watch the video though so can't be certain.
I'm going to need two of that Ultimate Alexa, one for each look. That said, I wish they would have made the attire underneath more accurate. But I'm not sure if there would have been enough time to mold it considering I think it was less than a year ago that she started wearing the modified gear.
A little sad we aren't getting an updated Kevin head for what will likely be his last figure (from Mattel). I could have sworn the render had a different head on it.
That Triple H looks awful. I may cancel my preorder.
I really like that pink attire Mandy. Might have to try and swing one.
Bianca and Tiger Stripe RVD both look great. I'm super stoked for E91.

There is nothing to make of it. You can apologize now. Nope. I wasnt going to randomly speculate because a figure wasnt present. Many announced figures weren’t shown. That doesn’t mean they were all canceled. Your wild speculation just happened to be right.
