Will be interesting to see if the WM 9 Hogan in the upcoming Hall of Fame Series has an accurate head sculpt - that is one with the eye injury he had at WM 9.
It's hard to tell from the Super Toy Con pic as you can only see his right side in the packaging so let's wait and see.
Well done to Mattel for making this figure anyway. Even though a lot of people talk down about the ending to WM 9, for me it was quite a memorable and unique ending to a WM at that time.
Also I've given up on asking for the Mountie, but interesting to see that Tito can get a figure before the Mountie even though the Mountie thrashed him at WM 7 (was over in less than a minute from memory).

I doubt they'll add a blackeye to the figure. While WrestleMania IX was his most famous appearance with this outfit, he did film some interviews wearing this outfit, as well as his return to Raw, I think, was similar. So that's probably enough justification right there for Mattel to exclude the black eye. I'm just pumped they chose this outfit so early. Still holding out hope for a Python Power or WrestleMania VII Elite Hogan, but this one was a nice surprise.

As a kid, hogan coming out and winning the title unannounced was a huge surprise and and awesome moment. While not my favorite look for the hulkster, I'll never forget the excitement of him beating yoko, or the disappointment of him losing the title back at king of the ring.

I doubt they'll give him the black eye, and personally, I wouldn't want them to. If I remember correctly, Jakks did do a black eye scan, but Hogan kicked off about it. I may have gotten that wrong though.

The black eye would be an awesome detail. Mattel has surprised us before with some minute details, so who knows!

No thanks. I don't really want to buy a figure with a permanent black eye.

That would be terrible. One of my favorite Hogan attires so hopefully they don't include that unnecessary detail.

No need for a black eye. This is gonna double as my WCW Hogan until we get a proper one.

I guarantee they simply repaint this exact figure into a 2005 Hogan with the tie dye pants. That figure appears to have regular wrestling boots mold even, painted to look like cowboy boots.

As soon as I get that Hogan, his boots are going white and he's getting a DM Hogan head and becoming a Wrestlemania IV Hogan to go along with Legends 5 Savage and Flashback Liz

Here's a legit concern. The weight belt ....will it fit over the shirt? I love the shirt but can we get a cloth one already.
