The arms look ridiculous. I said the same when the DM Mankind was released.
Lazy AF. It's Kurt Angle syndrome. They should be making more unique parts rather than shoving square pegs in round holes...

The who?.... and that's why its $20 less. I'll wait til Black Friday and get it for $5.99 So Foleys name is only worth $20 more than 3 individual other guys with more accessories you’re pretending to not know who they are but will still buy the figures eventually? Never change WFigs… Is your collection in ziploc bags too? What I’m getting at is I’d rather pay now for a wrestler I know than for 2 I have no clue (Gunn obviously everyone knows). And if the past is any indication, AEW two/three packs go on HUUUUUGE discounts down the line. |

I think this set looks cool moc. I just think Mattel needs to create new arms molds and stop slapping those Goldberg arms on everyone. One thing I enjoyed predouble joint era was the diversity we had in arm choices. I also think a lot of the bigger guys suffer from getting t-Rex arms too.

I know I’ve already mentioned it, but those jacked arms really turn me off with this set.

Mattel needs fat people arms. Non muscular flabby goodness. NGL, if they release that potential KO Ultimate with massive biceps, I'm gonna be angry about it. The fact that they could make a single, suitable arm mold type that would fit both Mick AND Kevin, and in a decade worth of figures they never bothered to once is just depressing. |

Might have been mentioned, but Mattel missed a trick by not putting that soft goods shirt that the Superstars Mankind is wearing on this one. Would look smart the 3 of them in a row all with soft goods shirts.

Well Steve did mention these were same MSRP as the Hogans. So RS jacked up the price by 30+.
And yes mankind should have came with a cloth shirt to make it all uniform.

Steve actually said that? Holy CRAP what the hell Ringside. I mean, I'm usually not one to go off on the place I love to get my figures from, hell, I'm usually one to defend them, but if Steve flat out stated that the set was intended to be the same price as the Hogan set... Just, wow. |

If it's an exclusive, then they have every right to do so and have done this before, let's not forget. Regarding the arms - the UE Mankind model may have new ones. Although they do look like the common single-jointed Austin-style arms just updated in the render with cuts to make it look double jointed. :  |
