Such a shame as it looked very promising. After seeing those photos, I’m glad I didn’t get it.

nothing will come of this, these are still "the best quality, premium figures on the market" despite the issues highlighted here (and no doubt the ones people haven't taken to social media to moan about) I still think it's a joke that Zombie is charging $50 per figure when to date, his figures have never been delivered on time and have issues across the board yeah, they look good compared to some other companies products, but they're hardly "worth" $50 for what's essentially a mass-produced custom figure
I really agree with this -- and it's shocking he messed up the scaling on Booger. That was in my opinion the most Hasbro like, and best sculpt, I was thinking of buying, but when I see those pictures, I can't justify the price to have an undersized figure

Looking at that picture with Earthquake; it's pretty correct. Booger was 6'1" and Earthquake was 6'7"...

Yeah, I'm not saying it's grossly off, I mean if you look at where the shoulder blades are on both figures that actually looks pretty even. Quake seems to have a bigger head adding some height. Still think a smidge larger would have been better. Still beats the custom unlike the Mattel Luger or Doink. Here's my updated orange card collection:

ZST when an epic MELTDOWN in his Instagram comments of the latest Andre post regarding the whereabouts of Gargano figure. Claims original eta would produce inferior product so he settles for inevitable delays.
Are you paying attention yet?

Too many are turning a blind eye to scale of Booger and trying to justify the scale against Earthquake etc. The huge fact remains it is way too small and doesn't scale well with even the ZST line nevermind Hasbros. Dino Bravo and Jeff Jarrett are either equal to or wider/taller than Booger. The look of the figure in a vacuum could well be one of the best from any new independent toy maker but the scale of it drags it way down so far that it's definitely below average.

Opened my Booger yesterday and think it's really impressive. Can understand the complaints about it not being wide enough, but I'm willing to overlook that. Really impressed with the quality of them.

I’ve received all of Series 2 now (bar Andre which I didn’t order), Raven and Brody are my favourites. Raven is barely hasbro like but at this stage I don’t care, they have done what they have set out to do and that’s create the ultimate Raven 90s figure. The detail is staggering, I’m posing mine without the jacket for that reason. Would prefer a Dinosaur Jr or Melvins t shirt on him but that’s a musical preference ha.

Also used some shock oil on the knob, so now popping his head on and off is a synch.
