Its actually really bad IMO as it just comes off as a helmet head or as fake as a Les Nessman Macho wig but the face is one of the best of andre and I would have just gave two separate head sculpts then the afro helmet . ...except that would have cost a fortune! I like the blue shorts and afro... at least Mattel are trying to give us a different Andre look, rather than flat-out re-releasing Andre's previous figure.

I don't think it looks bad. I'm not going to display mine with the fro, but I think its a solid look.

That singlet-less Andre looks like it would be a great base for a Giant Baba custom...

I like it since you can make 3 different Andres:
1. Early 80's Afro Andre. 2. WM1 Andre. 3. WM3 Andre.
Good job Mattel but now make Big John Studd already!

I like it, personally. It kind of surprised me how good it looked on him, and how seamless it works once you position it correctly. I won't display him like that because of Hogan, but I really do think Mattel did a cool thing with the fro and giving us a dual figure of sorts.

When I started watching Andre already had his hair short and with so few 70s era guys, probably won't display it with the afro, but am very happy to have a face Andre to team with Hogan, JYD, Orndorff and Hillbilly Jim.

Do it right or dont do it ! either way I love the Head sculpt on the first mattel version so Ill replace it on my Jakks Andres figures so I bought two from ringside for $38 shipped and will scrap out the torsos on feebay and probably break even while getting the heads Free

Glad you like it and I guess its better than nothing but its really nothing more then and I quote " a re release with a do do helmet " as you should read the reviews at ringside and their actually pretty brutal and its hovering around 2 stars but I just hope the face skin tone matches my Jakks versions .

Im glad they have released an Andre at retail stores. His contract is running out and we atleast needed him as an elite collection flashback

Love it! Can't wait to have one on my shelf. I might get two and display them in the different looks.

Looks 100% better. Just wish that he had blue or red boots. The black boots really take away from it imo.
