These two are about the same height (5'8'') and weight (sub 200 lbs) irl, despite Danielson being billed at 5'10'' Really egregious scaling on Jazwares part here. Next to other figures, BD looks to be about 6'3'' 245 lbs. With Jade Cargill, who is billed at 5'10'' That said, alone, Danielson is an outstanding figure. Also, my nominee for worst figure of the year goes to:

Thanks for those comparison photos. That's a massive scaling discrepancy with Bryan. The figure looks great overall on its own but definitely out of place next to Pac and Jade. Christian's head scans seem off for sure but the thing I noticed first was how thick the wrist/arms are and how small it makes his hands look.

Every time I tell myself Bryan’s scale isn’t that bad I see pics proving otherwise.
Stand-alone he is a great figure but right now I’ve got him next to a Macho Man and Sting Mattel and Bryan is taller than both. Ooof

Why is Christian the worst figure of the year? I think it’s great.
Agreed on the D-Bry scaling issue. I swapped his torso for MJF (John Silver works too) and it fixed this issue but we shouldn’t have to purchase an extra figure when Jazwares already has the parts to do it right.

As noted, that Danielson figures looks pretty good on its own. But there are two things about it I think are off upon further reflection - the torso is too big and he should not be that tan.
I actually liked the Christian figure and thought they did good by giving him a unique torso.

Jeez, look at Chad Danielson up there.
Nice looking figure, I wish it fit in with the line better.

Everyone who collects and has a decent amount of these is fully aware jazwares spent 2022 doing quantity over quality and it failed. Hopefully this lul is giving them time to regroup and strategize for 2023. A lot of their stuff has been a joke the last 6 months or so. Scale, sculpts, half the figs having the gray/beige zombie skintone and the rest having the same super tans.

They released the figure early, every company does this. They know you will buy the hot new figure and then again to get the right one

Yikes. It must tower over a Mattel Daniel Bryan as well Im guessing. How does it compare with Jakks RA/CS?

Nows the time to buy fix-up parts. Experts, what do we need to make Bryan correct?

For me, the biggest problem has been the misaligned paint apps. I've come across several figures that I left on the rack just because a mouth or eyes will be printed off to the side. This makes it a gamble when ordering online, which sucks because it's either that or wait 3-4 months with the hope that I'll see them at retail.

Good lord.
Is that the extra super mega end-stage boss Bryan? You know, when you've already completed the "Final Countdown" quest and defeated the Yes Man and The Vegan Warrior?
Jeebus.

I think maybe he was supposed to be Bison in the AEW/Street Fighter crossover line.

The Unrivaled Christian Cage is without a doubt the worst figure to me. Here were my thoughts on it when I finally opened it. This was a figure I was looking forward to. But now that I have it I am very disappointed. The heads are tiny compared to the torso and that hand. And the neck is way too thin as even the tiny heads stick out way too far when looking at it from the sides. The torso and lower torso looks like it’s bloated. The legs look odd. It almost looks like the hips are backwards because maybe they’re on the wrong sides. (At least that’s how they look). The feet are tiny and the searching hand is just as long as the feet.

I too, am looking forward to Danielson's run as Bryan the Giant.

I swear that face makes me think of actor James Coburn. I have passed serval times on that figure. I know Christian is older, but damn he isn't collecting social security yet.

Yes, while that Danielson figure looks cool - the scaling (mainly the large torso) and the skin tone are bothersome.

Personally I like the "look" of the Christian Cage figure, however the head is just "really off", like it is just strange.
