I've noticed that alot of his logos are green, weren't they supposed to be gold? Are these the tights he beat Lesnar in?
Also why are his boots this ugly orange color?

Quick Update. I meant Legends 6 not 5. And Eddie did have Orange boots at No Way Out 2004, the event the outfit is based on. I did a double take as well when I saw it too but it is correct.

Thanks Kody! Ok so the boots aren't gold.
Does anyone happen to know if his belt is shiny?

I honestly don't have the figure. Nor have I seen No Way Out 2004, but when i saw ur question.....I remembered MDT saying something about that figures boots.
And the belts not shiny....as I've seen many complaints that we haven't gotten a shiny version of the Undisputed title yet. Should've come with Elite 18 Undertaker. Maybe we'll get a Flashback Brock w/ it tho.

on a side note, what an amazing match and amazing moment. it still saddens me to think of how big Eddie would have been. this was just the beginning

^I remember watching Confidential where they showed Eddie celebrating in the back, hugging Vince, calling Vickie to say thank you... just incredibly moving stuff. About Eddie's boots if there was any doubt left... Eddie's boots weren't orange and neither was Eddie. The rest of the attire was spot-on, though.

The boots appear to be a cream color, either way the figure is amazing.

The boots don't look to be actually gold either though, or are they?
I remember marking out at my friends house when the 3 count was made. Epic night.

ITS THE BEST GUERRERO FIG EVER MADE. WAY BETTER THAN THE HERITAGE BASIC IN MY OPINION.

I also love this figure. Eddie is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time and this figure is one of the reasons why I started collecting.

I remember marking out at my friends house when the 3 count was made. Epic night. yes, they were a shiny gold. when you watch the match on clear television not screencaps, the boots have a nice shine to them like a lot of his boots did. they aren't "Gold" in the way of goldust, or even the gold on belts. it's more of a "light gold" but they are absolutely NOwhere near the color on the Legends figure

Here's a good quality clip of the match. The boot color is way off, but the tights' design did have those green details. And Eddie was in great shape, so I think the arms/torso mold they used was a good choice.
I just opened this figure up the other day, and I personally think it's one of the best Mattel figures I own along with E12 Kane, E17 Mankind and DM5 Bret Hart.

Thanks for helping out in here everyone! While i'm at it, what happened to the E12 Del Rio. These are the trunks he won the rumble in and they appear to be gold. The Mattel figures trunks are freaking yellow!

That's a much closer shot of Del Rio's burrito than I ever wanted to see Eddie's boots definitely were a different color than most of his gold boots, but they weren't as vibrant as the figure's. I've already made my feelings on the figure clear

I fixed the picture of Del Rio haha, sorry about the terrible close up.
Why was the Mattel figures trunks yellow? Aren't those trunks pictured gold?

The boots he wore at No way out 04 are exactly the same as the ones he wore at WM20. The boots on his WMHB16 figure are correct. Where as the ones on his L6 are inaccurate.
