I don't know how much meat is on the bone for Leaf, but I hope Mitch does a singles Marty if he is able. Maybe even in that Rockers pink. Or the black/neon multi color he wore near the end of his singles run. oh if there's an opportunity for another repaint, you can be sure G+G will pursue it

Based on the pictures it looks like Sean Mooney, Brill/Kurt Fuller and commentator Raymond Rougeau share the same body mold. Brill looks to have the arm designs swapped. I’m guessing that Downtown Bruno will use the same or some of the same mold. I’m down for all of them

I'm probably passing on announcers/managers at this point. But, I'm sure many collectors will be happy with this one.

for the prices he's charging, he can definitely afford to make multiple manager molds (even just swapping arms/legs) but this is ridiculous to release 4 figures with the exact same body, but charge a premium price for a basic head swap.

Has he announced prices yet for anything that's not currently up? Maybe he could cut prices a bit if it's not a new mold? And some people are probably getting burned out on guys in suits, not just from Mitch, but Zombie doing a bunch too. Maybe a few bucks cheaper would make it an easier buy for some?

I agree that there are a lot of re-use of parts and going “cheap” on things which is common practice. That said, I am excited to have all of these characters from my childhood added to my collection. Another major one added: http://instagram.com/p/C69HV0COBlj

I counted the votes on both Instagram and Facebook, there is no way that Macho won. What was the point in the poll? Regardless, I really like the figure. I think it will look great next to the Flair figure we got from Hasbro. I'm also very excited for Lord Alfred Hayes. Am I the only one that likes it when parts are reused? People say they want Hasbro like . . . well guess what Hasbro reused a lot of parts. I don't understand the dislike if the parts look nice.

But I think Savage looks great, he has a difficult face to sculpt. I’m happy we’ll have a glasses Macho for the first time. It’ll look good with the WM8 Flair from Zombie. Lord Alfred was so bad but man I have such nostalgia for him and Sean Mooney doing commentary together. I’m all in on the commentator figures now. I’m all for reusing parts when it makes sense too. Let’s get as many (good) figures as possible

It is rare that you’ll hear me be overly critical of Grapplers and Gimmicks but I’m pretty underwhelmed by this Savage. Is it just me or did he scan the last Hasbro Macho figure and go off of that (similar to how he makes other parts)? I’m getting Mooney and Hayes but really don’t think I need this one in my collection unless there are changes made.

Yeah, like others said, no way that gold Macho won his "poll" lol. I think most avoided it worried about the gold paint after the whole MoM saga. I worry what the final product will look like, but at early glance I do like it. I think it looks better than what we've seen of Zombie's WM7, can't sand the face on that one, and the gorilla arms.

Must have been costly to get all that gold on Mach.

Something about savage def doesn't do it for me. That was my initial impression. Excited to see what his next one looks like with the long molded tassles.
