The figure is based off his Hell in a Cell match with Undertaker at Badd Blood 1997.
I can't believe "be happy with it or just do a torso swap" is actually a response.
We are paying top dollar for an Elite "highly detailed authentic action figure" but getting less detail than most basic figures. Give me a break.

I agree with a lot of the comments here; I'd much rather have an HBK with knee pads than half of his entrance gear. Also, is it just me or have they not painted on the hearts on the side of his tights? I'm sure we should be able to see at least a portion of them in those pics. I understand their budget problems, but for such a sought after figure, and one many of us have been waiting for for a long time, surely they could have moved him to a different series, and been more accurate. Such a shame.

That's easily the best HBK headscan that Mattel has released so far. I disagree with that. I think the old Hbk scans are better than this one. But the hair on this fig is perfect, which all the other hbks lacked cuz most of them had that orange hair.

Hbk is one figure who Doesnt need accessories to sell. WM8 HBK would be a figure Who I would like the accessories for.... Vest, Glasses... But for E19 The Belt could come with someone who wouldn't sell as well without it for all I care.

I'm glad a lot of ppl are agreeing that the figure looks incomplete. That was the first word that came into my head when I saw it. The entrance gear makes him look like a cyborg or something. It looks like battle armor and not Hbk entrance gear.

I love this HBK. Can't wait to get it...the only other HBK figure I have is the RRH as I want all classic HBKs..I didn't care for his current look as I preferred how he looked in the 90s..also why I'm holding out on Taker cuz I want a purple one.

This is hands down the best HBK figure they have given us. I always thought all the other HBK figures sucked, but this one truly blew me away! I can't complain about this figure at all.

We all were hoping for Mattel to hit home run with this HBK and they only got a double. It's good just not good enough.

Coolman clearly has a passion for figs n was really anticipating this hbk. I def understand his frustration. He was another member who has really been pushing for this fig for sometime.

I don't really see much of a resemblance to Shawn Michaels in RSC's pics. A bit of a weird expression they chose to use.
If they weren't going to paint the silver details, then they should have made his entrance gear all black. As it is now, it looks very odd.
The Euro title's great, but I wouldn't have minded waiting for it if that meant a more complete HBK figure.

ok so if its based on badd blood '97 WHERE THE IS THE REST OF HIS ENTRANCE GEAR? ? hopefully it just wasn't ready for RSF and it will be on the final product, half assed entrance gear is pretty pathetic for this "premium" line of action figures
