Disappointed in the arms and hands. He needs bigger arms. And I forgot how many they've done this with, but when Hall/Razor did what he called the surfboard walk, he did not have his hands fanned out like Cena's You Can't See Me or like his about to do the god damn Worm. I know it's a small thing, but his entrance to me is one of the greatest in wrestling.

That's what I was thinking, too. Just not sure offhand if there are any with tape on the fingers for better accuracy. Edit: I guess it was just his ring finger so not that big of a deal I suppose.

They use the Cena hands for a ton of different open handed poses, and in most every case, the crotch chop/open handed "just bring it" hands are a better fit. I have my Legends 7 Razor doing this pose: ...and it worked so much better once I swapped out the "you can't see me" hands he came with for a pair of the crotch chop hands. Incidentally, he's pictured here with one of the rare cases where the YCSM hands are the right fit.

Incredibly disappointed in the purple gear (have the DM) and excited for the red and yellow.

I like the face sculpts a lot. One of the really cool things about Razor Ramon is that he had multiple tops and bottoms. What makes Ultimate Mattel so unique is that I think it would be neat to have multiple colored vests within the Ultimate package to accommodate multiple Ultimate looks for Razor. To me - the Ultimate image or the one I best remember him was the black tights with the gold razors. Yellow and Black vest. Or in Wrestlmania 10 Gold and Black vest. It could even have a Red and Black vest. These looks would be Ultimate - Unique and very different from the Purple Elite Razor that we already have. I am sad with all of his looks that the Purple offering is the main one.

Im happy we are getting an Ultimate of Razor. It's well deserved.
I really don't like the chase idea....and especially when the chase is of an incredibly obscure attire that nobody remembers without bringing up images of promo photos or cards.
Regardless, the purple is an improvement over the DM. I wish they had just gone the Wrestlemania 10 route, but maybe they have something big planned for that. (How about a Mattel Creations Ultimate 2 pack of Razor & Shawn, with 2 orange ladders, 2 IC belts, etc) I'll probably get both and keep one MOC for historical purposes. The purple will look nice next to my Ultimate Diesel in front of my New Gen entrance

While another purple Razor seems redundant, especially with so many other options available, I’ll be picking one up.

I would have purchased if they had done the black and gold attire or black and red. Ketchup and mustard is an immediate pass for me. All purple looks fine but is nothing I wish to add to my collection.
On a side note: I dislike how thin they make a lot of the torsos. Many wrestlers are much thicker than what they are depicting. If it’s to cut costs, I get it. If it is to exaggerate other features, I think it distracts more than anything else.

Purple attire is meh because we already have it but I had a feeling they would go this route. he had many other attires that would have been better for the UE. Ill try get the chase but wont be devastated if I dont get it.

Pros. Body looks a little bigger Heads are fantastic
Cons. Would habe prefered he was more tan The red and yellow attire is too bright.. would prefer the red a little darker and yellow more golden
Really looks great though. Was also hoping for all red RR93

they should’ve chose better kneepads and done a larger right elbow pad. his right one was obviously bigger than his left.

Considering the UE line is the “premium” line, I see this as a letdown. Arms are too small, wrong knee pads, right elbow pad should be bigger than the left, and lazily went with the purple attire again when he has plenty of others to choose from.
Will I grab it if I see it? Probably once it hits clearance, but still a disappointment considering this was Mattel’s chance to retool Razor/Hall for a more accurate look.

Some will say it’s a memorable look for Razor to casual collectors, but he had plenty of memorable looks. Razor/Hall is a big enough name that they could have given us something different like his green or pink attire and it would have sold (considering the price point of this line, I was hoping for his SummerSlam 1994 attire). If they were going to go with the purple attire again, they at the least could have given him the correct elbow and knee pads (that’s not even asking for bigger arms like we have for years).

I have no issues with the attire choices. Since his DM people have been bitching for a new purple one because it was the wrong shade of purple. So here they give us what (at least to me) is probably his most iconic look in the proper shade of purple so I am fine with it. As for the chase attire it’s something different so I am good with that too. Green would have been a great choice, but we just got it in the Target RAW set. I just wish he had larger arms, because he was a bigger guy.

I don't know how many more times I, or anyone else, has to say this: we need more arms to choose from with the double jointed ones. For men it is small, huge, enormous, and Gargantuan. No nuance anymore.

I’m not disappointed overall. I think I anticipated it so hard that I’m just happy they finally showed it. I agree with a lot of y’all’s nitpicks though; bigger arms and a darker tan are needed. And why can’t we use his Defining Moments knees pads instead of those abysmal leg sleeves?? I’m not upset with attire choice, personally I’m glad to have a more accurate purple, but I thought for sure the chase would be yellow and main figure be red trunks. Just so we’d be closer to having all attires represented
