White outline on Hollywood knee pads may seem like a small detail but it would make a real difference, no reason they shouldnβt be able to do it. Agreed. It's an easy enough custom, but this long in the game I don't understand why Mattel has so many whiffs on attire accuracy. We're told time and time again that the team working on the line are fans yet we see stuff like this happen. It's minor to them or perhaps not even on their radar, but as paying customers who are only paying higher and higher MSRP's for these figures, you'd think we wouldn't have to be asking for corrections to things like that. And don't get mad at us for asking or for pointing these things out. Show us that you listen and strive to do better. There are dozens of you all that would love to take their job at Mattel, and would do a better one too. π |

Anyone heard where this will be carried in Canada, if at all?

And don't get mad at us for asking or for pointing these things out. Show us that you listen and strive to do better. Agree. However, in this case this has been my most requested Hogan and it's incredibly annoying that they messed up the lightning bolt details. Just how??? Mattel got it right with the first UE. The outlines are dark blue, not baby blue with super thick lines. Just one quick Google search and you could see how off they are. There are also missing details on the bandanna, but I can overlook that. The tights??? Not so much an easy fix. I really hope they can correct it, but knowing Mattel it probably won't. Mind you, I kind of just want this set for the Hogan. That means I'll have shell out the money and hopefully sell the other two if I decide to get the set.   |

Wow, when you look at the photos together, that Hollywood isn't even close to accurate. Dang.

Man forget about the tights/knee pads/bandanna designs being wrong. How can you give us that super realistic spot-on 80's Hogan headsculpt biting a bandana and nail it completely knock-it-out-of-the-park good and in the same package throw in the goofy Spirit-Halloween costume Hogan headscan? Make it make sense |

I guess it makes sense to cheap out on this since so many will still get it, but would've been cooler to do maybe an Ultimate 3-pack with more accessories than you can count.

Why do they refuse to do the white outline on Hoganβs kneepads? They did it for old man Bretβs elbow pads for Christβs sakeβ¦

The Hulk Still Rules head is so ing goofy It looks like some maniacally grinning puppet. And, sorry to those who are fans of Hound Dog Hogan, but the sagging face and tired eyes and paint color of the headband are laughably bad. Thereβs no denying that headband looks like a tongue. Thereβs no expression in that languid-looking face. He looks like a drugged out basset hound. www.cartoonbucket.com/cartoons/droophy-holding-banner/Someone above said itβs a great likeness, or something like that. No way. It doesnβt even look like him that much. The best Hogan portraits from Mattel are the Ultimate 13 and the Elite figure that comes with the war bonnet. |

Its a great set.
I wish they would've done that 80s Hogan tan on all of em, though.
Was plenty tan during his nWo days and plenty tan in WWE 2002.
Darker tan is the only complaint. Honestly it looks a little goofy to give one the correct tan and the other two the same old Hogan skin tone. It was soooo close, guys!!

If thatβs true I will pre-order it from Target right now and use the $25 off a $100 purchase. |

I really think its the only room for improvement in this set so I hope so. Its awesome but I can't help but think that its an easy change to make and would be big difference. I hope its the case. I looked it up and found an article online that said: "Mattel has requested Hulk Hoganβs tan be corrected in the upcoming 40th Anniversary of Hulkamania 3-pack." Awesome! |
