I just got my Berg. Here my final opinions. I'm happy to get this figure because I'm a Goldberg fan. I like the elbow pads, I like the way the joints are and I'm happy we got a YoungBerg scan included. With that being said, my figure arrived with the biceps out of the shoulders. The screaming scan is what it is (really tired of it at this point). The smoke scan is dumb, but sounded like a cool idea. So, basically it's useless for me. I'll give Mattel props for trying out something new. The boots aren't glossed and I think it's an oversight considering that even Jakks made sure they were. I think for such a simple figure and lack of deco a new body mold could of been warranted. I'm not a fan of the bodybuilder legs they keep giving these guys. Goldberg had huge traps and thick legs. I do like the hand sculpts included. US belt is good, but like many of us have stated it's out of proportion. Overall rating 6/10... This is Mattel's cream of the crop, imo they could do better especially when you see something like the nWo UE Hogan.

I have no Goldberg so I'm just ok with it , I mean I'm just ok but the body choice is bad. Goldberg is a monster with huge traps , v shaped body and thick undefined thighs.

Received my UE Goldberg today. Same sentiments as a lot of others here. New head scan is solid but too small. Gives him a pinhead look. The torso was the wrong choice, but I think it would have been passable had they given him new, thicker legs. The legs they use are too skinny and ripped. Goldberg had thick legs.
I’m a bigger Goldberg fan than most so this one stings for me. With how basic this offering is there’s no reason Mattel couldn’t sculpt a new body for him. The one positive I have is the open elbow pads, but I think they are a tad too loose on his arms. If they were a little smaller they’d be perfect.

Not a goldberg fan but can't deny the magic of his streak and the moment he won the title. I feel like some of these fan takeover amazon figures didn't get the love and attention other figures get. This figure is passable and will work for my Monday night wars display but doesn't really do goldbergs body type justice. Should be tanner too. Oh well.

Not enough meat on the bone to justify just yet. Still prefer the Black/White trunks over plain black but the elbow pads are nice. Should have threw in the cut off baseball jersey, hat, and sweatpants that he wore as Street clothes in WCW instead of what we got but that's how Fan Votes work.
