This is a brand new fig, we shouldn’t have to fix it. What is Mattel thinking with these design decisions? Paying atleast $35, just to have to buy another fig so we can make it right.

It does get old, yeah. It's pretty sad that collectors come up with better part combinations for a lot of these figures than the manufacturers can. |

Yet again the consumer is having to alter a figure using better parts, why Mattel can't do this to begin with is beyond me! We shouldn't have to fix up figures if the parts are available for Mattel.

I love watching everyone getting riled up that their toy doesn’t look exactly like the person on the TV. My Yoko isn’t nearly 589 lbs! This is unacceptable. Bill is a joke! Honestly? It's more a matter of having figures that look like you stuck two toothpicks into either side of a marshmallow looks weird overall. It's the exact opposite of the Rhyno elite that everyone lost their minds over. Not looking like the person is fine, but maybe, I dunno, try to not make action figures look like you referenced them from a funhouse mirror? Maybe? |

Mattel has always had a skinny problem. Look at the first Finlay Elite...or the first time they made Ezekiel Jackson
that being said, it absolutely blows my mind they havent invested in a "fat guy arm" mold for the amount of figures they have made and will make that could use it. it feels like an absolute no brainer

Which is legit hilarious because if you look at the recent photo of the two of them on Foley's IG, you realize that Kevin's arms are now closer to Johnny Knoxville size than Foley's. Kevin has gotten downright skinny. They waited so long to give him fat person arms that now they need to start giving him luchador parts. Proud of him though. Share your secret, Kevin. |

Share your secret, Kevin.Actually, I'm pretty sure after further examination of that Foley photo, he's using the same secret as Jimmy Uso. So, uh.. not proud of you anymore Kevin. Go eat a f'n sandwich or something. Take Jimmy with you. WTF. |

If he was, I'm sure this wouldn't be a problem. |

Well, it's not like he's an Italian pretending to be Native American, with it becoming problematic to 3 people on Twitter/X or anything, so chill. |

It makes him feel superior being sycophantic instead of honest about a product you're expected to pay for. |
