I think I’m more excited for this than the previous UE HBK. It always feels like those years for him are underrepresented. He’s definitely due for a chase Elite soon, similar to the most recent Bret (or the Basic 100 figure). Don’t know about anyone else, but I just couldn’t get as excited for his gear after he switched to pants.

I would love a WM24 UE Shawn. They've made a good amount of his most iconic Elite attires but that's a gear I always loved and it would be sick to get the ultimate treatment.

I can understand the dislike of later year HBKs attires. But having understanding why he chose to wear chaps I can see past it. As a fan of HBK first and foremost, ill take any and all HBK elites/ultimates.

But I’m unaware what his reasoning was for the switch - I assume he getting older and being slimmer than he was in years past?

His knees were shot, iirc, he had austin knee braces on both his knees and he wanted something to not make them so prominent through his old tights.

I did a quick search and seems like he had knee problems dating back to 1990 and he tore his meniscus in 2004 sometime shortly before he switched to the chaps

almost a year later and we’re still in the dark about hogan I remember getting excited for 8/26 last year, then nothing for 5 days, then it sold out while I wasn't looking. Would've liked to have that Hogan for the new gen ring So there’s no hope for the rest of us at this point? What a focking stupid business model…literally leaving money on the table. Yeah, and they can order more too, I guarantee there'd be more available if you actually had to have the funds available to keep your preorder, but you can just order 1000 and Amazon won't call your bluff until way later. There's a lot of them I'd love to buy, but just not for the $90+ resellers want, Mattel is mostly blind to this

Looks better. It also looks like they either tweaked HBK's face or did a better paint job with the smiling scan. Anymore loose pics?

The body doesn't look too weird in videos. But still i feel that body is not good. Looks the same as flair and austin's. Only works well on flair..

Received my UE Shawn Michaels today here in the UK, got to say, it looks even better in person. One of the best UE figures yet. Nice one... I'm hoping they send mine soon(!). Did it come in it's own outer brown box too (like the Warrior UE did)?
