Just a coincidence with the crowdfunding hitting peak today, it's a WWE kinda day I guess.

Everything about this figure looks awesome but I couldn't get past the lack of middle fingers. The pointer fingers are just stupid. Austin points at people but that's not the way his hand is positioned when he does it.

Disappointed they couldn't stick the middle finger hands in. Just stick them out of sight, dammit.

They need to make an 18+ accessory pack available which has just the shit they couldn't put out at retail for multiple figures all in one box. Do it a once a year to fix the previous year's neuterings.

Maybe unlicensed third party can do it (a middle finger was done for the HT Infinity War Star-Lord) but there's no way WWE would approve. Everyone who follows this company knows there's bunch of behind-the-scenes workings to make this company appear clean cut.

Yeah maybe. Look I get you don't need middle fingers and beer cans on Target shelves next to the kiddie toys. They went kid friendly after Attitude and I get that too. But I like the Attitude era, I was an adult (by age anyway) when that was active, and as an adult collector I want it to be accurate. Same deal with DC and guns. Figure out how to address both aspects of business and fandom. Give us 18+ variants at online shops, etc. Something.

I have this figure and it's pretty fucking awesome. Aside from the lack of middle fingers it's a perfect representation of the Attitude-Era Austin as far as I'm concerned.
BTW Tony, I've seen reviews where people have jury-rigged his hands so he had the middle fingers. How did you do yours? And yes, you are a hairy motherfucker, lol. Last edited by Dolemite; 08-13-2021 at 04:36 PM.. |

That was all photoshop. Not super duper difficult, but not super quick either (for me anyway). At least not quick and have it look legit. Original: Photoshop: |

Great shots and work as usual Tony. You'd think the Ultimates line would be more for adult and older collectors and would be understood as such. They'd just hide it in the packaging. Price point and considering the wrestler should know its "safe" to put certain accessories in. I have young nephews who love wrestling and few put Stone Cold up there based on age really (they think guys like Roman Reigns are great, smh).
Closing thought, maybe Mattel goofed and swapped hand accessories with Daniel Bryan Ultimate figures. |
