hey crew, what the ring attire date for "DX" Shawn Michaels - WWE Ringside Exclusive? Package mentions 1997 but i think Shawn wore this only in 1998, right? Thanks in advance!

Same here. Should of been released as an DM if the ringside budget wasn't high enough. The kneepad situation is annoying.

This was seriously a top 5 want at the time, and easily my most wanted Shawn Michaels singles figure. I bought it, but without the blue on the tips of the X's this figure is SUCH a let down. I was so bummed to see it.

I'm a stickler for details and a massive HBK fan (especially from this era), but to me the figure is PERFECT. Yes the little blue highlights are missing, but it's really hard to notice and does not detract from the figure in any material way. One of my top five Mattel figures by far!

There’s no blue.

I was so bummed to see it. The knee pads are missing, the entrance attire isn’t accurate and the hair is totally wrong. But I’m with you on this too. I still bought two, and ended up having him sign one over the summer. It’s bittersweet that we didn’t get a better version of this attire because it’s easily one of his best ever imo.

I think if they would have bothered with knee pads and stubble then it would be miles better. But with the wrong hair, no stubble, inaccurate colors on the logos, no knee pads, crappy paint deco hits on the chaps, no choker necklace and all the other issues, it really just looks incomplete and kinda cheap imo.

Yeah I agree on all the other stuff, but the reason that gear was so sick was because of the green to blue fade. Idk... just really stood out to me. I honestly could have completely looked past the other inaccuracies if they just added freaking blue haha

It's sad that Jakks pulled this figure off more accurately almost a decade ago.

Also mattel done silver d's in the hearts when they were actually black. The figure basically sucks. There's customs on here that blow it out the water

This is one of those figures I’m still on the fence about and will most likely pick it up when it goes on sale. I feel like it’s overrated, just too many inaccuracies. Maybe I’m in the minority, but I’d take the goddamn kneepads over the blue/torquise X’s any days. It’s much easier to paint the tips than to create the kneepads with decals imo.
