 Seriously? These figures are demolished so bad the boxes are actually ripped open and torn, how does this even happen? how do I file a claim with ringside? I called and they said to do it online but canβt find where to do it This is the worst I have ever received a package ever wow Send them an email with order # and a pic to cs@ringsidecollectibles.net |

Is the box size the same size as the last ones like Hogan,Shinsukeβ¦ Nope, much smaller. The outer box is nice. But individually the smaller packaging is disappointing IMO. Itβs quite the difference. I am a little bit disappointed with the figures too. The blood on Mankind is awful in hand and Shawnβs gear just does not fit right. Bret is too similar to two other figures we have of him. Cody is the best of the four I think. Maybe they made the boxes smaller, so they could all fit in that big one easier? I like all the figures - my only real issues are that Bret's jacket is incredibly plain/disappointing (the original one from 10+ years ago looked much better). And Shawn seems to suffer from that weird/smooth-face Ken-doll look (like the Legends Scott Hall), lol. |

AxelSmackdown thanks for those pics. Could you possibly do one with the new DM box next to a current Elite one?

That's a huge size disparity -- I guess Mattel wanted to save money, but not great for collectors

AxelSmackdown that's great, thanks! I didn't realise they were that small. It's a shame they couldn't keep them the same size as before, but I suppose we should be grateful they came back in the first place...

It is kinda funny to me that Mattel announced and shipped the DM Cody before they could ship the MC Cody. The MC Cody went up for preorder a month after the HIAC match that the DM is from π€£.
Seriously though, I love this thing. Easily one of my favorite elites ever.

Itβs like Mattel has Zombie running point on that one. |

yes sir you are right... It does not look good. I wasn't a fan at first - but if you want that articulation point, how else would you do it? I think the main problem with this Mankind is how they've positioned him/his arms in the box (AND put on that ridiculous "you can't see me" hand) - it doesn't make the figure look good. Buuuut... if you see him out of the box - with his arms down and the normal hand on - he looks SO much better:  I think he fits in/could pass as an Ultimate Edition figure too, minus the toe articulation... you can't see his torso articulation underneath - and no-one will be taking his shirt off anyway, lol. Don't get me wrong on this I liked this fig a lot but rounded smooth shoulders does not look good. It should have been a new sculpt. |

First post! I love the Mankind figure, but I don't think I have as critical of an eye for certain details like others do. As soon as it came in I swiped a sock from my daughter's Barbie bin and slapped it on him. Big fan.

The Cody one looks stunning in the box, and Mankind looks great too, surprised by the box size but I like it slim.

Got mine in today - like others have said, I was surprised by the smallness of the boxes. I like it though!
