Arms are way too big. It's creating a separation between the seams on shoulder just rotating arms for poses. Can see it sorta open and close. Can't imagine the chest piece not falling off after excessive use. Otherwise decent figure with the ultimate Hollywood Hogan smiling scan on instead of the one that came with it. Shirt is trash. I can understand no soft goods, but the plastic open front can't close is a no from me bro. New boas are a great new addition compared to the other Mattel boa and even the storm dust collector boas. Overall, just a bit better that the storm Hogan, only because of the weird crotch piece for the storm Hogan, if not for that Storms would be better imo.  |

For clarification, the arms are a great size, they just are not made for the body piece.

It’s sad because it’s actually a good figure minus the ugly Sheamus torso and reused headscan. I’m not sure why Bill would put the sheamus torso on a pair of 80s Hulk legs. Why not just use the Kane torso, Iron Shiek or old Hogan torso? Do you have a pic of Higan without the boas?

Is this the same small torso from the Hogan hall of fame (1993) figure?

Garbage. It’s Hogan so I’ll probably still buy it, but garbage. Very strange choices here. Jakks would approve.

Very odd. Like even for Mattel. Curious, did they need to use that torso to fit the rubber shirt? (I don’t own any of the other Hogans or that design of a rubber shirt so not sure what, if any, size issues there’d be). Either way, that looks terrible and I’m generally not one to get too worked up over parts choices.

Wow that's bad. Luckily I won't need any Hogan's that aren't NWO. 👍

I wanna see someone swap the torso with the elite 34 hogan one. It would look way better than this chinese new year one

After they gave us the wonderful UE Hogan they revert back to this. coldblooded I have the same shoulder issue with all my elite Goldberg’s. His shoulder grinds against the upper section and the sockets are scratched. Really annoying. Thanks for the pics too. I also would of preferred the hotdog skin tone on old man Hogan too. |

They really should have used the same torso as the elite Old Man Hogan™
If they don't use that one for Hulk Still Rules era Hogan, then he better be an ultimate

That looks waayyy to small a body choice for Hulk, not a great job done on it apart from the attire.

I tried to use that torso for the UE nWo Hogan and it wasn’t directly compatible. Not sure how Mattel got the Sheamus torso to work without re-engineering it, but they should have put the effort into one that would have looked better. |

Either way, that looks terrible and I’m generally not one to get too worked up over parts choices. DM Hogan has a rubber shirt and he has the correct torso (same one on his Survivor Series Elite), so I don’t know what the excuse from Mattel is for using the Sheamus torso on this Hogan. Guess I’m off to go buy another DM Hogan and do a torso swap/crack between it and E91… |

Mine should be arriving today. Most likely will be keeping them both MOC as I don’t open my legends, at least not as of right now. Maybe in the future. So for right now the torso doesn’t bother me but maybe it will if I open it lol
