Don´t want to be nit-picky but Warrior´s hair was way lighter back then! The color of the hair takes a lot off the figure. Besides that, Mattel did an awesome job!

Ugh. Lost a sale here. That head looks HORRID on that body. Cant tell if its the head that is too big or the body that is too small.

While I agree the hair color should be a much lighter color,everything else looks good to me. Hopefully,once all this Christmas horror is over I will find a way to get this. Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

I'm glad the retail price is so high on this thing because it means there's some hope it'll sit on the shelf for a little while. At least long enough for me to get it.... thanks for the pics. Awesome stuff.

There's a few things that could be improved which others have already covered but even so this is one of the few US made wrestling figures that is comparable with the best of the Japanese ones in terms of detail.
Like DM Savage the £30 it'll cost me is not ideal but the quality is without question.
I hope the next Mattel Warrior has a more intense facial expression as the current sculpt is good but it'd be nice to have another one as well.

Ugh. Lost a sale here. That head looks HORRID on that body. Cant tell if its the head that is too big or the body that is too small.y'know I agree with you on that point, and I think that's one of the few areas where Jakks shined. Mattel's neutral head-sculpt is not the Ultimate Warrior we remember. I get that neutral sculpts are great for pic feds or displays, but to me the action figure should capture an iconic pose. And since we can't articulate facial expressions, then the most iconic expression has to be sculpted. Therefore Warrior needs a screaming intense head scan. Ultimately (no pun intended) there are two structural issues: (1) Warrior is a vicitim of big 80s hair - that's why the head looks big. (2) The calves that go with tall kicks are too short in my opinion. That's why Hacksaw is short, and now Warrior is kinda short. But yes, this is probably the best US wrestling action figure to be on par with regular Japanese wrestling figures. |

Nice pictures i got my DM2 set yesterday. The only thing that im disappointed in is the lack of tassels on the back of the jacket that were clearly there, Tassels on the sides of the tights and wristbands, and now that it was mentioned the coloring on the hair being a bit off. But beyond that i think the figure is excellent as those are a few things i can overlook.
