Question for Faarooq fans: what is the difference between the Elite 2-pack Faarooq (from the Faarooq vs. Rock 2-pack from several years back) and the new non-chase Faarooq from Legends 24? Anyone have both and done a side-by-side photo comparison? I have the 2-pack version and I'm trying to decide if I need the Legends version. (Managed to find the chase version today and I'm diggin' it.)

The skin color is different and one has a right fist for the raised fist pose. 2-pack is way darker in skin color.

The new legends one blows the original one away. The head on the old one barely looks like Faarooq, this one looks completely like him. The robe is perfect and it's a million percent better overall imo

The differences for L24 Faarooq are:
- New head
- Skintone paler and consistent with his latest Acolytes figure
- Double jointed elbows
- Swappable hands
- Larger details for the coloured areas
- White/black logo is stretched and thicker on the singlet
- Comes with a "leather" jacket
- Hat is the same as Legends 19 D'Lo & Kama, and not the same as the previous 2 pack's one

The new L24 is also much shorter than all other Ron Simmons figs.

From Kyle Peterson's youtube The old one was fine as a placeholder, but if I collected that era then this one is an immediate upgrade. Looks awesome and significantly more like Faarooq. |

The new L24 is also much shorter than all other Ron Simmons figs. The L19 was too tall so I'm going to swap the lower legs over to L24 and then both figures will be golden. |

Question on the Legends chase figure…when the hell is this attire from? I’m drawing a complete blank on it. Is it before, during or after the Nation?
