![]() ![]() This "Undisputed" belt represented the WWE Title when Guerrero won it. After the WWE split it's roster into two brands: RAW and Smackdown!, this belt became the new WWE Title, while a modified version of WCW's belt became the WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt (currently seen on Smackdown!). However, it's based on one of my personal favorite title belt designs, first introduced to WWE fans as the Undisputed Championship belt, the unification of the WWE Heavyweight Championship and the WCW World Heavyweight Title, first occupied by Chris Jericho. Whatever.Įddie Guerrero is packaged with one accessory and it's a title belt, hence not really an accessory that would be specific to him. I'm no expert in toy production, so it doesn't make sense to have an additional paint step here. For some odd reason, Mattel added orange paint for the details on the front of the boots instead of just leaving them as negative space. His boots are molded in orange with black paint applied to create the flame effect. There's a spot in the "t" where the green paint doesn't cover up the red completely and a couple of small chips in the outline. "Latino" is tampographed on his rear with green letters and a black outline. This makes him stand in an odd pose, but I think it's true of Guerrero's stance and mannerism. The way the designs were applied require you to point his toes inward to allow for the graphics on his thighs to properly line up with the ones on his hip joints. ![]() His tights are molded in red plastic and feature black, green and copper designs on each leg. ![]() Though small, the design is intricate and utilites black, yellow and red paint. He has cross made up of spikes tattooed on the inside of his left forearm. White paint was used to recreate Guerrero's taped hands and wrists. I'd like to see some highlights added into the hair to bring out the detail of the sculpt, but it seems that's a useless complaint at this point. His hair and facial details are painted in brown. The lower body is most reused from Pillman, but Eddie has smaller lower leg pieces that plug into the boots, making him a bit shorter than Pillman. Guerrero does, however, share the same arms as Snuka, which work great for Eddie. He has the super-toned torso that is bulky, but not as massive as Jimmy Snuka's upper body. #Eddie guerrero toy series#They captured him perfectly in the sculpt and the only thing better would have been matching the sly, smiling Eddie on the card art.įrom the neck down Guerrero is very similar to Brian Pillman from series 3. I'm happy to see that they are in the latter category and totally hit the mark with Eddie Guerrero. Mattel's WWE design team has missed the mark on the head sculpts of several figures and absolutely nailed it on others. My first choice was easy, "Latino Heat", Eddie Guerrero. The other two figures: Kerry Von Erich and the Ultimate Warrior in his WrestleMania VI attire, were out of sight. It wasn't until January 1st that I would find the first few series 6 figures at Toys R Us, including Kevin Von Erich, Texas Tornado and Guerrero. That had me a bit worried about whether or not I'd ever see the last set locally, after all it was technically released back in November, but all through the last two months of 2011 they were nowhere to be found. If you haven't heard by now the "Legends" series is coming to an end at retail, making series 6 the final wave you'll be able to find in stores.
