Even after the comparisons with the giants figures from mattel, i still think they made Khali too short. That man is 7'1, that figure doesn't do justice with how tall he is. Barely acceptable overall set. Meh build-a-figure.
It's funny that the Khali has such smooth leg joints. I find his head is way too easy to pop off and he's a bit short but overall not bad. I had the same problem with cody as well. I find if you heat up the leg and take it off and put it back on it helps. Mine didn't revert back to the flex 'ems style like yours did, though. I also recommend heating up the pinless joints if you find them too stiff. Heat them up and bend them back and forth for a minute or so to loosen them up. Great vid, too!
I'm starting to believe there's a written rule in somebody's contract that Mattel can't put out a Build-a-figure of someone highly anticipated unless Hulk Hogan is in the wave. His figures do sell, though, so I understand why they put him out all the time.
Hurricane with the ponytail is how I remember him growing up, I remember back when he was in that boy band 3 count in WCW then became hurricane and won the European championship in wwe, dude was super underrated and was the first to put the vertabreaker on the map 🔥
And for Cody ya need to also add some Blu-Tack (or _Staples_ putty) to The Head pin. Cause Cody's head just sits waaaay to low. Once you get it up A tad, you'll notice right away how much better it looks.
when the cross necklace floats up like that you can probably just flip it upside down and it will sit nice, but I kind of like it when they float up like that so i can use them for hulk hogan action shots
I already have the Elite 75 Hurricane that's almost in the same gear, but I might get the new one as well because the ponytail, painted mask and white boots, he looks just like the Jakks Hurricane figure I had as a kid.
The hip joint problem is getting worse and worse because the new ball joints aren’t ball joints at all, they’re like a cross between ball joint and pine cone joints, the only solution I got was to dremel and shave down the ball joint , we shouldn’t have to be doing their job but this is what has to happen so we can just enjoy our figures sadly
Honestly they need to retool either the torso or legs to give Khali the extra height he needs and also give him Omos arms. He was tall and this figure looks stumpy.
The quality change of the figures likely comes from where they are made, mattel recently changed where they are produced, they went from China to Vietnam likely using a more cost effective company. If you look at the bottom of the boots of the figures you will see the "made in Vietnam" lettering.
Just got my set today,my khali legs are discolored on the thigh,but it moves way better than I thought it would,and it stays together which I usually have arm issues with the build a figures
To fix the leg problems just heat up some water till its pretty hot let the fig sit in it for 30 seconds or so dry off with a towel and it's basically all fixed
I've noticed some of my new figures (Tony D'Angelo, Stacks) have a tendency to lean forward. This set is a dissapointment. Diesel should have black hair . I might just get the Hogan for the accessory and Khali's head so I can do a headswap and put the new head on the basic .
Lately I haven’t really been buying any new figures. Matel has been coming down a little bit. I feel like they know we’re gonna buy their bullshit so they just keep on bringing out trash. They don’t care about their quality anymore. Lean on Cody’s a very big disappointment and I really want it that one.
White on Black pony tail Diesel is 🔥 My complaint is his torso, it looks too small. Is that the biggest slinget torso? > An them the Cody heads are THE SAME Brad. The DM head just has A better paint job.
I am wondering if you were too stuff the neck socket on his head with something to get the head to sit just a little higher would that help his height and make his stumping ass not look so bad
IT'S KIND OF COOL DO YOU HAVE LIKE THE FOUR PACKAGES WILL A DIFFERENT ERAS WHAT THAT LOOKS REALLY COOL LIKE THAT , DO LIKE THE OLD SCHOOL ERA, LIKE MIXED WITH THE RUTHLESS AGGRESSION ERA, ON WITH THE MODERN ERA I REALLY DO LIKE THE FOUR PACKAGES YOU HAVE RIGHT THERE PUT DIFFERENT KIND OF EARS WHICH IS COOL CUZ I LIKE THAT I REALLY DO LIKE THE PACKAGING AS WELL IT LOOKS VERY COOL 🙂😌👍🏻
They need to really chill on Hogan, the market is over saturated with him so much so every Target legends wave version I’ve seen of him doesn’t sell until sales or clearance hits. I would’ve much rather had something like a 2003 or 2004 Rumble Triple H
DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO BOTHER WHAT WHY BOTHER YOU DOES CODY RHODES BETTER HAVE THE FREAKING PAINLESS WHAT TIME IS LIKE MOVING LEG AND IT JUST GOES BACK TO HIS PLACE, IT WILL IT BE IN THIS CASE FOR LIKE THE LEGS AGAIN ARE FREAKING THE POINT THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO SNAP IT IN HALF IS NOT THE CASE WITH THIS VERSION OF HIM WILL THE LEGS ARE LIKE FREAKING LIKE STUCK YOU TURN THE MOVES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU WILL YOU MOVE THE LEG YOU KIND OF FEEL LIKE YOU WANT TO SNAP THE LEG IN HALF , OVER THIS CASE ANYTHING HAPPENED IN THIS ONE RIGHT HERE WILL THE LEGS GET STUCK AT THE END I HOPE IT DOESN'T HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THIS ONE HERE , LIKE FOR ME I DON'T HAVE THESE SETS WOULD BE IN HAND SO I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FEEL I HOPE THIS SAID IT IS GOOD AND I HOPE IT DOESN'T RUIN LIKE THE REVIEWS, BUT DEFINITELY THAT CODY RHODES LEARN TO HAVE THE ISSUE AGAIN WILL THE LEGS GET SO FREAKING STUCK YOU TRYING TO MOVE THEM AND THEN YOU FEEL LIKE LIKE I SAID BEFORE YOU WOULD DO SNAP IN HALF AND THERE SHOULD BE SUCH A PAIN TO PUT IT BACK IN ITS PLACE, I HOPE IT'S NOT IN THIS CASE IN THE HOPE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN TO YOU GUYS FOR THIS ONE THE LET YOU KNOW RIGHT NOW THE MOMENT BE CAREFUL , DOES PLEASE BE CAREFUL AND DOES IT HAVE ISSUES THIS TIME LIKE I SAID I DON'T HAVE THIS SET IN HAND WITH ME SO I JUST DON'T KNOW BUT I HOPE THIS GOES REALLY GOOD AND I HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T DO THE REVIEWS IF YOU WERE GOING TO LEGS AGAIN IS THERE GOING TO BE A PROBLEM PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH THE ISSUES BUT HOW I HOPE IT'S NOT THE CASE WITH THIS ONE HERE YES JUST LET YOU KNOW RIGHT NOW 🙁😔😟🧐🙅🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🙂👍🏻
I have the basic Great Khali and I'll tell you, he towers over that figure. Just a tad shorter than his Jakks figure. The basic version is better than his elite. The elite it's just too short.
😂 He tried to hate on Khali and couldn't really find anything negative to say about him. He's scaled taller than the Kevin Nash in the set. I guess a Snowman would be a good height comparison.
Coke Cogan's eyes looked even more f'ed up on that figure.. ridiculous, for $25 bucks they could atleast paint the eyes correctly.. WWsnorE suuuccckkksss
That Khali is straight up garbage it’s an undersized, short armed, tiny hands, clown shoed Great Khali…. the Basic versions of Khali (especially the black pants version) blow the elite out of the water…. The elites only advantage is the articulation everything else blows chunks…. I’m sticking with my Basic Series black pants Khali with the neutral head scan with added Roman Reigns bracers for the debut look over this “Elite” atrocity…. the basic’s proportions and height are spot on…. I can live without the articulation if this is the garbage I’m going to get… just plain underwhelming…. so disappointed.
Dont have to thank us. Your reviews are fire. You seem like a damn good dude. Keep killing it. Love that diesel. Still remember that dweeb Matt striker calling that rumble lol
Bro is obsessed with that defining moments cody at this time 😭
Should of been Royal Rumble 2007 Great Khali. He eliminated like 10 people that year
Most likely a Legends series later down the line.
Thank god we didn't get the 2007 rumble Khali attire in this series. He came out way too short.
I'm just happy we're finally get an elite khali
Mattel needs to address these leg issues. I really think the pinlessness wouldn’t feel as bad if the hip joints weren’t as stiff as they currently are
Even after the comparisons with the giants figures from mattel, i still think they made Khali too short. That man is 7'1, that figure doesn't do justice with how tall he is.

Adrenaline in the soul.
Royal Rumble Cody Rhodes. 🗣️🔥
My Pete Dunne's left leg does the same as the cody, feels like its gonna break
Hurricane with the ponytail is how I remember him growing up, I remember back when he was in that boy band 3 count in WCW then became hurricane and won the European championship in wwe, dude was super underrated and was the first to put the vertabreaker on the map 🔥
These issues with legs and joints are getting over bearing. It’s not right. It’s ridiculous. It needs fixed asap
Mike!!!
And the loose hands too, I swear 2 out of every 3 figures I buy have a damn loose hand, can’t even hold a mic without the hand spinning 😡
I agree with the eyes when you said once you see it you can’t unsee it lol
I’ve fixed the Cody problem.
First heat it up
2nd pull down the legs
3rd put in cold water
Then the pegs are lowered and the legs move.
Instructions unclear, my figure needs tricep surgery
@@funkyrumble0455wha
And for Cody ya need to also add some Blu-Tack (or _Staples_ putty) to The Head pin. Cause Cody's head just sits waaaay to low. Once you get it up A tad, you'll notice right away how much better it looks.
5:35 I’m starting to think they’re giving these new elites basic legs of “mainevent”
The Hogan actually is pinless, and buttery, give Mattel credit when they do it right
when the cross necklace floats up like that you can probably just flip it upside down and it will sit nice, but I kind of like it when they float up like that so i can use them for hulk hogan action shots

Awesome Figure Review MDT Enjoyed It A Lot
The hip joint problem is getting worse and worse because the new ball joints aren’t ball joints at all, they’re like a cross between ball joint and pine cone joints, the only solution I got was to dremel and shave down the ball joint , we shouldn’t have to be doing their job but this is what has to happen so we can just enjoy our figures sadly
Honestly they need to retool either the torso or legs to give Khali the extra height he needs and also give him Omos arms. He was tall and this figure looks stumpy.
MDT gotta be the best figure RUclipsr cause he’s always completely honest. Even with a code on ringside he will not front with us. Very genuine dude
The quality change of the figures likely comes from where they are made, mattel recently changed where they are produced, they went from China to Vietnam likely using a more cost effective company.
If you look at the bottom of the boots of the figures you will see the "made in Vietnam" lettering.
Your Reviews are the Best man❤🔥
That Cody figure is absolute beauty. 🤌🏻❤️
That's not hulk hogan.
That's a 'red-hulk' hogan.
What Do you mean by that?
@@frederikwrzesniewski3190 hulk, red hulk, hulk's varient, marvel !!??
Honestly these Cody's having these issues is a blessing for my wallet 🤣 id want all the Cody's
Just got my set today,my khali legs are discolored on the thigh,but it moves way better than I thought it would,and it stays together which I usually have arm issues with the build a figures

I think it's a good set based on royal rumble moments, gonna pick the whole set up
White on Black pony tail Diesel is 🔥
My complaint is his torso, it looks too small. Is that the biggest slinget torso?
> An them the Cody heads are THE SAME Brad. The DM head just has A better paint job.
I heard that Mattel changed their production location from China to Thailand. Could this be the reason for the new figures having QC issues?
Disappointing that Cody didn’t come with the “finish the story” weight belt
After yesterday I want to see if you can make a Dale Earnhardt in episode 100 🤘🏽🤘🏽
The new leg mold on the Cody, makes it look like he has a diaper on SMH
That Cody looks awesome
I am wondering if you were too stuff the neck socket on his head with something to get the head to sit just a little higher would that help his height and make his stumping ass not look so bad
I know I’m late, I don’t collect wrestling figures, but I collect DC. can you sand down the joints to help with articulation?
The Khali’s a build a figure?
amazon ultimate two pack Khali's debut with taker
Decade of domination big show is taller then him as well so I feel like he is a tad bit short
6:27 thats the same head sculpt......
Jup! BOTH Cody's are the same head. The DM fig just has A better paint job.
We want our ball joints and pinned legs back
I really don't want Hogan but I might have to make an exception because I always wanted an Elite Great Khali since I was a kid.
Every elite I seem to get has that leg problem
The Teeth On Cody’s Joints For Legs are Trash, It’s the Pins in the legs Brad
IT'S KIND OF COOL DO YOU HAVE LIKE THE FOUR PACKAGES WILL A DIFFERENT ERAS WHAT THAT LOOKS REALLY COOL LIKE THAT , DO LIKE THE OLD SCHOOL ERA, LIKE MIXED WITH THE RUTHLESS AGGRESSION ERA, ON WITH THE MODERN ERA I REALLY DO LIKE THE FOUR PACKAGES YOU HAVE RIGHT THERE PUT DIFFERENT KIND OF EARS WHICH IS COOL CUZ I LIKE THAT I REALLY DO LIKE THE PACKAGING AS WELL IT LOOKS VERY COOL 🙂😌👍🏻
Can we please get a new cody head
Khali the GOAT 🇮🇳

The basic does look taller. I have a basic khali
The hip joints on these more recent elites have been TERRIBLE!!
😂 He tried to hate on Khali and couldn't really find anything negative to say about him. He's scaled taller than the Kevin Nash in the set. I guess a Snowman would be a good height comparison.
Besides the height it’s a great figure
Bring back the battle royal plz
This is mid and if this is the only khali we get that’s furiating
How many more hogans do we need bruh :(
Just put a NWO shirt on the diesel. Be like a back stage Nash.
Hogan is going to get swapped so much
the paint job on Cody is rough
Feet better new cody
Coke Cogan's eyes looked even more f'ed up on that figure.. ridiculous, for $25 bucks they could atleast paint the eyes correctly.. WWsnorE suuuccckkksss

These stiff legs are garbage. This is not a better product than the pinned legs
.
14 years we finally got a Khali elite figure,and 7 years a new Tyler Bate figure finally
We should have gotten some mustache mountain elites or at least basics in 2019
