Got my Warrior today...
The painted head sat REALLY high. I was able to force it down (with the power of the Warrior perhaps?)
I agree about the painted chest. I wanted to do an arch back hands up pose, but no, not gonna happen.
The new head is good. Better than the WM6 Elite. Do wish the hair was blonder though. Doubt I'll ever use the post match head.
My one hip is loose. No idea why they are still using the old ratchet hips still. Especially since there is an alternative that can be tightened up if need be.
I also agree that I wish he was in a new look. Bright neon colors is always what I think of when I think of Warrior.
That being said, the WM6 look always held a special place for me since I was so anti Hogan at the time. And I remember watching WM6 with my friend and my dad.
Though I have some gripes, I'm pleased with the figure overall.

If anyone gets a mint box and would trade please let me know. I’ll pay for shipping and throw in a figure or money.

Mine is shipping. Problem is they supposedly charged a random card from my wallet, and I can't tell if there were any other outstanding orders that may have been messed up.

Every time I see this thread title, I think I’ve teleported over to a DC Comics forum and into a thread about a delayed Wonder Woman figure!

Me - “I ordered Hogan and Warrior the second preorders started, so they’ve gotta be coming soon”
Amazon - “We will email you when we have an estimated delivery date”
Me - “?”

Yeah... they've actually released a blonder version of the same hair-piece (on a Basic I think), so it would have been cool to see it used here.

Sadly my order was damaged during transit ( so they say ) and they sent it back to amazon warehouse. soo..3 calls later..and way too much time talking to them.. they cant do anything. Any chance these get listed again at normal price and not these insane aftermarket prices?

That sucks! on one hand, thats kinda cool of them in the sense of they don't want to deliver a damaged package. but on the other hand, they should let the customer make that decision. personally, if i received a figure in damaged packaging it wouldn't bother me at all since i open 99% of my figures. obviously it would be a pain in the ass for moc/mib collectors...but still, it should be up to who bought the item

This is both a really nice and really disappointing figure all at the same time. What they did blows the previous elite releases of this attire out of the water, but man...the absence of a torso without the paint stings. As does the somewhat disappointing choice to reuse the Elite hair sculpt and dark brown paint app when it's inaccurate to the pre-match version of the attire.

Anyone else not had theirs shipped yet? Mine hasn’t been shipped. Must be stuck in Parts Unknown, along with my Hogan. Amazon shoved the controls into a nose dive.

Went ahead and just bought one secondary. No reason to have a headache over probably my least favorite wrestler.

Anyone else not had theirs shipped yet? Still nothing on mine. The due dates are the same I think, but no signs of it actually starting across the Atlantic.
