i dont understand how a figure is underated. who rated it poorly to begin with? What qualities go against its intial poor rating in which makes it underated? common figs are usually placed here because they are found easy and thus not spoken about too often, or are figs of characters that people dont like.
Overated? figs of low supply but high demand. Many of these figs are not that great in quality, but are highly sought after due to lower quantities. Or because its a specific worker people put it on a pedestal.
As for your example, i think its rated fine. people were excited for it before its release due to the unique entrance attitire. i dont know too many people that rated it poorly in which for it be considered underated.

Kevin Nash = overrated
The only reason people like it is the perceived value. It's an average fig, nothing special.

I think the peg warming Finlay Elite 4 figure is a beaut. I don't hate E7 Shawn Michaels but I was underwhelmed for what I paid out for.

I gotta say any John Cena elite figure is underrated, but i especially like the series where he was in orange attire as well as the purple. Those figs got bashed alot and i actually think they look great.

Overrated, I gotta say most Diva figures. I feel they could have done better with the Bellas, I know they're twins but jees the only difference is on their behinds. The majority of the Diva figs don't even look like them, although I will say they are improving drastically. That Alicia Fox fig looks awesome.

Try holding them up, you'll see it at the forehead and nose especially. One is smirking and the other is smiling, and their hair is different.

One figure I don't get why people like is the Rumble Heritage HBK. The head looks NOTHING like Shawn!

Underrated - EG Piper, L4 Orndorff & L5 WCCW Kerry. Overrated - E9 Ryder, DM HBK, E3 Rock, Elite Diva's (Basically a Basic Diva @ Elite price) and all Hornswaggles One figure I don't get why people like is the Rumble Heritage HBK. The head looks NOTHING like Shawn! I think that head sculpt is a damn good likeness of Shawn from the mid 90's. They just need to fix the hair color. And then just add chest hair and give him larger arms he'd be perfect. Kevin Nash = overrated The only reason people like it is the perceived value. It's an average fig, nothing special. That's not entirely true. I like it because it's Nash (although I think the torso is too thin) as far as value goes I don't see it being worth more than $20. (retail price of an Elite at Target after tax) But then I don't believe in any of the "so called" secondary market prices

I buy any Diva I see on the spot but for the most part they are overated. Most don't look like the Divas they are portraying, and the scales are way off all of a sudden. They are getting better, but it should have been right from day one.
I agree that BOPPV Triple H an underated figure. Other than the same old head scan it is a great figure and a good price considering all the tooling involved with the accessories he comes with.
I also think the peg warming Legends are underated figures. Yes, I too would have prefered an ECW Era Terry Funk, but you have to admit that what we got was a great figure of Terrible Terry Funk down to the last detail. Makes the LJN version look cheap. Same goes for Brian Pillman, Dusty Rhodes, Sgt. Slaughter, etc clogged shelves forever but still very nice figures for what they were representing.
Jimmy Snuka=Crappy figure.

I hear you but I would've preferred their attires to show that difference. Maybe some color variation. Plus the real reason they were hot sellers was their popularity at the time and that Divas title accessory, their value has dipped the last few months.
