How come no one says “enough HBK figures already” the same way as Macho, Hogan, and Warrior? Seems like he’s getting just as much, if not more, figs as those guys. And this same or very similar New Gen attire has been done at least 5 times now. I’m personally not complaining because I don’t have a problem with passing on figures I don’t want or need & don’t get mad that they exist but I am curious why he doesn’t get the same hate as the others. Taker seems to fall in that category with HBK too where he somehow doesn’t get criticized for having too many figures. Maybe there are people who weren’t fans yet for the Hogan, Warrior, Macho era but were for Taker and HBK? |

I will concede that the Hall likeness does look slightly better in these photos than in the original two from the OP:   I stand by my comments based on the original two photos shown in the OP though, it looks like garbage in those. |

I’d like more HBK figures but I’d like them to not look similar to 5 other releases

Preordered, but depending on what they show + what goes up for preorder the next couple of days, I may cancel and put that money towards something else. I've wanted these figures for the longest time...as Ultimates. A little deflating they're elites, especially when we got something as weird as Gobbledy Gooker and Undertaker as an Ultimate two-pack via Amazon just a few months ago. Special shout out to that new HBK mullet hair sculpt though. I love it. but amazon preorders don’t charge |

Hall’s five o’clock shadow looks weird. It’s not going up his jawline.

I already did Razor as a UE and Shawn, with swappable hands, from the Flashback Series Elite set. $60+ for the glasses and new heads? Much like the Reigns/Heyman/Lesnar Amazon Elite 3-pack... hard pass.

I'm just not "in love" with these figures since they're not Ultimates, but I dig the packaging, HBK's hair, etc. I can do without these if I need to. |

Did Mattel lose the rights to the colour gold or something?

I already have the HBK from the FB line, but I couldn't pass on this one. Peak childhood nostalgia of two of my all-time favorites.

Ordered it about an hour ago. The only thing I don’t like about Razor’s head scan is how high the hair sits when the vest is off. Hoping it will sit lower when I have the actual figure in hand..

I would buy the Razor, but the HBK is nearly just a re-release. And this costs more than two elites would.

I'm really happy they are making this. It's the perfect concept of a 2 pack with the right accessories.
I like both figures overall.
Shawn not having his full entrance gear is SO ANNOYING. Like, come on...this is a high priced/premium item. Does it really cost that much money for a cheap pair of plasticrubber chaps with some black zebra paint? I'm also pretty sure that Mattel only has 4 heads for HBK and we've been getting the same ones for 12 years. Also his earrings are too short...minor complaint but still. Nice touch though that they created a new sunglasses mold for him the one time he used those. lol
With the amount of effort they put in to guys like Hogan, it's just disheartening to see HBK constantly get mistreated in this collection.
Hope the Razor head looks better in person. I think the gold is a miss, but again, lets see it in hand.
Regardless, they got my money for it.
