According to AFA, there has been a running change on Luger. The newer version uses larger arms. Anybody have any comparison pics?

Damn, I was hoping they made his wrist tape black.  |

A friend of mine found a common version that appeared to have larger arms and had white boots with the black trunks. I assumed it was a factory error, but now I'm starting to wonder if that was a running change.

I finally found the chase Luger this weekend and it has the larger arms. They are the same arms used on the 80s era Hogans. I’m not sure how I feel about them. Lex was a massive guy but he was very cut and ripped and the large arms look a bit out of place on the ripped torso. Oddly enough it also had two right hands which I didn’t notice until I opened the package.

The running change is larger arms on both versions. Looks too weird and disproportionate

Getting Basic 100 HBK Vibes from this Man I wanted to use one of those for my 2004 HBK ultimate fix up cause of the facial hair, but I couldn't bring myself to open either of them lol, wound up using the one I bought in store that doesn't have it. It was previously on my 2006 Walgreens DX HBK but I needed it for the Amazon ultimate fixup lol. Sacrifices were made lol |

No way does Lex need 80s Hogan arms...Even Wolfpac Hogan didn't get those arms.  I guess the arms would fit better for the younger Lex, but still seems they'd be too big. The fact that they did this as a running change instead of correcting the wrist tape drives me crazy. |

Imagine running a company that would make a change to this. It being mattel I don’t find it surprising. I just would like to know what goof this has to go thru to make this happen. Man it sucks to have my favorite line ran by these people. |

If this is the running change, what was the original? |

So let me get this straight? The changes we want for body parts barely get chosen, but something we never ask for that looks even worse gets approved as a running change? I personally think the shoulders on the regular Lex look too big. This looks terrible.
EDIT:Those baboon arms could go right next to that monstrosity that was the elite Rhyno.

Rhyno came to mind for me haha. How did that not get changed but this did? |

It is hard for me to judge without the 2 figures side by side. Did they change the forearms, biceps, or shoulders? Or did they change all 3?
It seems like his wrists are thicker. I can't really notice the other changes though.

Yikes! Jot that one down with Rhyno and the elite hogans with the small, shredded torso of major misses 🤢
