So the shirts even wrong too. It’s the one you can buy currently. The one he wore was a different design…  oh FFS Mattel, what's the BS excuse for this one? I believe it's a licencing issue, unfortunately |

Ultimates are really hit and miss.
Some absolute blow me away then others seem like they have been put together with existing parts by a 12 year old.
Lucky to get new heads.
Weird and a shame.
Also no Ultimate Edition should have painted skin tone like on Eddies hand.

I can deal with hands somewhat cause they are smaller and less noticeable compared to the torso which is completely obvious. |

What bugs me is that Mattel will create new molds for current talent but won't create new molds for existing Legends talent that obviously need new molds. Eddie Guerrero should have never been released in the Ultimate line until Mattel had the correct torso mold available.

This has been a long standing issue, dating back to the Jakks days where Eddie would be given the same torso as Batista/Cena.
The usual part choices for Eddie haven't been great, as he is always too tall. The orange skin tone is also bad.
I'm just glad I can customize. I want this figure for the heads and accessories.

I'm sure they could have chosen a much better torso from the ones they already had though... I think the Rick Rude one would have worked? (or looked much better, anyway). |

Eddie was short and carried a lot of muscle mass during this period. I don’t think Rude’s torso would work. It’s strange that they decided to go with the shoulder choice the opted for. As mentioned previously, this Eddie is eerily similar to Rhyno. |

I’ve been saying for the past few years that Mattel needs to design 1-2 more torsos for the UE line. Not everyone that has muscles is either super lean like Rude, or super jacked like Batista and Warrior. The Amazon exclusive Goldberg and 2006 HHH looked bad enough with this torso, but the UE Eddie takes the cake. No excuse for being this lazy. Its a quick money grab by Mattel as they know Eddie will sell so why put money into tooling a new buck that actually looks like him.

I've seen the original shirt with undisputed title, and a newer one same pose with the United States title. |

Yeah I still don’t see Scarface being the issue, as even the new version is still the same ripoff of the logo. Gotta be a designer owning their work thing. |

I wonder if wwe has the rights to the 1 of them likely why Eddie came with the HUMONGOUS title lol I could be wrong, but the smaller version was released with only the legends Eddie afaik. |

Maybe Eddie just skipped leg day a lot? no chance, 500 squats everyday since he could walk. |
