WWE Mattel Elite Bob Backlund

[FigureKingdom]

Mattel is back with another awesome figure!

This is Bob Backlund from his run in the WWF as the psychotic man that didn't have control once he snapped!

The figure has extras upon extras!

2018 has been the year of Mattel. Mattel had been including many plastic mold shirts, plastic robes, and many accessories that quite frankly didn't make a lot of sense.

But that seems like a thing of the past. With this release we get a fabric soft goods robe with white trim. A white towel, two extra removable hands, and a winged eagle championship belt.

Im in awe of everything about this figure, from the sculpted buzz cut, to his crazy blank stare on his facial scan.

Backlund is accurately scaled, as he wasn't very tall in real life. The figure has numerous point of articulation. You can move the head, waist, shoulders, arms, wrists, legs, ankles, knees, and torso.

My only extremely minor nitpick would have to be on the winged eagle title having the black globe instead of the traditional blue accent on the globe.

I don't recall the title ever having the black accent.

But nevertheless, that shouldn't  stop you from considering picking up this gem! I have only had it for a few days, and its already front and center in my action figure collection. I would give this figure release a 9.5/10
