Ultimates are getting kind of sloppy lately. Just got Seth in today and he is gigantic. I dont know if its the head, torso or legs but he towers over some of the others. Hes almost as tall as Kane. That’s super disappointing

First look at Eddie reminded me of those deluxe Jakks Unlimited series or even flexem. If you haven't taken the $funds$ to develop accurate tooling for certain characters for the Ultimate line than just don't do figures yet that you don't have the parts for. It's really that simple imo. I would rather have to wait longer for that type of figure that will use new and different parts than pumping it out to meet demand for a large retailer who will just cancel all the preorders and only put it in about 1/16 of their stores anyway. I don't understand how a figure and attire that's already been made comes out worse in a repeat, especially for something that is supposed to be in a superior line for even more $$$.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I'd prefer Ultimate Edition figures to not have butterfly joints... sure there's more articulation, but most of the time it just takes away from the overall look and aesthetic appeal of the figures... they look more like Transformers or "Mr Roboto" versions of themselves. It's a shame.

That torso has never bothered me before and it's actually personally my favorite UE torso in the UE line. However that was the wrong parts choice for Eddie. His Elite figure has a unique hybrid torso that doesn't have a UE counterpart yet not even a basic counterpart! Probably could've been the right time to make one reflecting that OG elite Eddie torso. Also I hope that UE Rock has a collar for that shirt. There's a version he wore that didn't have a collar.

Y’all are in love with these ultimates yet don’t realizes there’s less torso choices than you can count on your two hands. I personally think the Eddie is great. to say there’s no better choice for a torso for Eddie in this line is actually stupid so in your tiny mind which UE torso would you use for a 2004 jacked Eddie ? i’m convinced the majority of you are either too old or too young to remember how jacked he was in 04.

I do wish Rock came with the straight faced scan that came with the first Ultimate. I would’ve preferred that over the smiling head.

Eddie was jacked for sure, but he wasn't Batista big.

His Elite figures aren't a unique or hybrid torso, it's just the same torso used on Brian Pillman, Kevin Von Erich, Matt Riddle, and maybe some others

This line gets so much love, yet so little crap on the limited torso selections. I’m just trying to prove that point because it’s annoying having to spend the most money on figures that have such a limited amount of parts. Elite Eddie’s are like older Hogans and JBLs and plenty of others who have had the worst torso selections for years now. I just don’t understand the sudden uproar, when it’s something that has been a problem and should’ve been fixed a long time ago. And this UE Eddie is not the worst example

Yeah, Eddie was jacked back in 04, but that figure looks ridiculously to big. That’s like trying to make the Rhyno figure look good by saying Rhyno had big arms, of course he had big arms, but those arms on thay figure looked ridiculously too big.
