I like it. It’s still better than non tan warrior skin tones. The figure looks great to me

The NWO Hogan from the 3 pack has the same skin tone as this new Warrior, right?

Is this Warrior the same color as the new NWO and Hulk Still Rules Hogan?
I would have been content with them all just sharing the same hot dog tan. The new Hogan tan for his later years is really, really dark.

The skin sure does look to be too dark. I don't think Warrior has ever been that dark.

I thought everyone was happy about the tan I did too. |

The issue for me is: with this tan, the figure stands out too much from all the other Warrior figures... it's different with Hogan, as he's only really been available these last 2-3 years, so a lot of his figures have a tan. But with guys like Warrior (and Macho if they did him with a tan), we've had 13 years worth of figures already - so any like this stick out like a sore thumb.

If anyone ever writes a history of this forum one day, I hope they title it "Torsos & Tans."

I thought everyone was happy about the tan I did too. Same here. It’s the usual wfigs shtick… ask for adjustments/requests, then not be satisfied with said adjustments. Examples include: Nitro stage Mr.Perfect with removable straps (it’s just not a good idea no matter how you look at it) Kurt Angle with removable singlet Razor Ramon with leg sleeves of doom Hulk Hogans in red and yellow (with non tear away shirts) Goldberg (with smoking head) |

Just weird to hate on Kyle. I was just joking see: “lol “ The guy that has started to have imaginary interaction with Todd MacFarlane in his latest videos and then lightly knocks Mattel and then remembers the free SDCC figures that gives him, then backtracks and "I agree with Mattel, they have to put their business hat on at the end of the day". Who would knock that guy? |

The skin sure does look to be too dark. I don't think Warrior has ever been that dark. Just Google Ultimate Warrior and look at images and you’ll see pics where he had a dark tan and pics where he was lighter tan. And every shade in between. Unfortunately SummerSlam ‘91 was an event/attire where he wasn’t that dark. But people asked them to make Warrior (Mr Perfect and someone else) tanner so they started doing it here. And let’s be honest they are going to pick one color and that’s what it will be going forward. It’s not going to be a case by case thing where they’ll be like well he was only this tan at that event so we’ll make him lighter this time. It’s going to be the one tan going forward. |

The first issue is that you’re watching Kyle Peterson reviews. Lol But yes, I agree warrior should not be tanner than Hogan but it’s not that big of a deal. The neon colors probably pop better with a tanner warrior than What they usually use. The figure looks great & thr non-screaming head is a great likeness to warrior. A Tad to tan? yeah, but still looks good so eh whatever. Just weird to hate on Kyle. I know. I love his reviews. And as a wrestling fan its an added bonus that he looks like aj styles and the big show had a baby. |

His tone is definitely different from Hogan's. They just made it a bit too dark.  Mean Gene has more of a tan than Warrior here. The tan obsession on this forum is unreal.  |

Just give everyone from this era a dark tan and be done with it.

I just can't understand how they get the simple things wrong, or if they remake figures later down the line don't correct the mistakes. Do they get samples to check, or simply submit the idea in hope it gets made correct, and if not, then it doesn't matter they'll still put it out? If they are true wrestling fans wouldn't you want everything to be spot on, or is that just me and my OCD?
I was so excited for this Warrior as it's one of my early memories as a fan, but it just looks wrong.

While I would have rather they used the Hogan skin tone, I'd at least be fine with all Warriors being darker going forward, unlike Hogan where they can't seem to decide if they want to stick with the tan or not. |
