To me, the head sculp is way off and the arms are way too big for him. I honestly am not a fan of this figure at all.

Wow it looks awesome! Head kinda looks like Bad Arse Billy Gunn from that angle though. I said that as soon as I saw that first nycc picture of it. The whole figure would make a great custom base for Billy Gunn. Paint over the trunks and upper thighs, swap the hands and it's done, pretty much.

Still don't look like the thighs. Weird, Thats one of the things I do like! haha I hate those skinny thighs they use on guys like AA. But Dolph does have skinny thighs in real life. I don't mind the arms, but like the big thighs on E13 Cody, they're a bit distracting IMO. Larger photos: I kinda wanna pick up an extra Rick Martel, so I could make some pink sunglasses.

I can't believe I just noticed the oddly sized arms. Are those the rarely used JoMo/Steamboat arms, or am I mistaken? They're definitely not appropriate for Dolph.

Comparing this figure to the real likeness shows how great it actually is, as shown in the picture below, Dolph does have the big arms, and he does indeed have beefy thighs. Sure his head doesn't look great but it's still a great figure, so stop your bitchin'.

One of the best figures out of the Elite series for sure although I can agree that Dolph arms can be found to be a bit large in-scale to his actual size which really isn't to much of an issue. The vest looked very nice on him as well. The design on the back really suited the vest.

Unless the head looks better in person, this is getting a swap. However, given Mattel's history it will probably look way better in person anyway. I just wish they would have done the B10 scan with a smirk on this one. That B10 scan is perfect imo.

His headsculpt does still look a lot like John Lorinitus but I think everything else including the accessories are fantastic!
Well done Mattel!
