Another pic from Alex West Collects  Honestly, the vest looks perfectly acceptable to me, but the biggest problem is that Hall is way, way too short. |

I’m afraid to ask for a slight tan on Hall. He may come back looking like Kamala.

I’ll stick with my 7 year old fix up…  What head is that? It looks fantastic. It's one of the old Jakks RA headscans and I did the exact same thing since Mattel until now did'nt capture the Undertakers look from 1998. |

I'm absolutely disgusted I have to fix Hall (plus using a UE16 Razor head), Hogan, AND Luger, to make their heights correct. This is hot garbage. With everything being talked up about this line, I thought we were going to get some seriously good figs. Instead we got half-arsed product. This is borderline Jakks level. Hell, I returned my CC3 Piper/Steele 'cause the paint was terrible. I’ve never done fix ups and never thought I would but I’d be interested to know how you would go about correcting these. Was looking forward to this line but this first series sucks. |

We know they aren’t going to make a new torso for a WalMart exclusive. (I am surprised they gave Hall the pants tucked into the boots look.) They are going to keep the costs down. I figured these were basically going to be rereleases with maybe a new head or deco. Agreed for the most part. Was hoping with how much they’ve been hyping up this line, they were gonna knock it out of the park. For the record, they used the mold for the BAF Bulldog too. So it’s not like this is the first time we’re seeing this pants mold. Conspiracy: Mattel decided to half ass this entire line once the Nitro Stage wasn’t funded. 🙄🤣 I actually forgot about the Bulldog BAF because I haven’t seen it or the Virgil sets yet. |

Who are you crazy people that expect scale and everything else to be accurate for expensive figures nowadays?

People were crying for tucked in boots. They made a mold with tucked boots, but are trying to use it for 6'7 Scott Hall and sub 6ft Davey Boy. There was zero chance this was ever going to be a perfect figure. |

Unfortunately Hall and Hogan look terrible next to each other because Hall is too pale (and short) and Hogan is too orange.  |

Another pic from Alex West Collects Do we really know what their scale is from that pic? They may be closer in scale than that pic shows. First if you look at the backdrop you can see the pic isn’t straight it’s tilted a little making Hogan look taller than he should be. And Hall’s legs look like they are bent or bent and tilted forward. So they may be closer in scale if both are put in the same stance at a level straight angle. Maybe ask AlexWestCollects to take a new pic with them posed as straight as possible? |

Austin’s the only good figure. Easy pass on the other 3.

If this was the only choice and they knew full well the scale wouldn’t work, they should have scrapped Hall and either moved him to later in the series where they could invest the money into making it properly or scrapped it all together and do a UE down the line. He’s going to look ridiculous next to the Nash that’s coming in series 2. |

It was always going to be figures using existing parts with new paint decos and maybe a new head. The cost was always going to be the bare minimum. |

Put bigger boots on the Scott Hall, maybe AEW Moxley or Kingston boots would make it taller

I am wondering if the thighs are as long as the BoAE Triple H’s? If not put the lower legs on those thighs.
