Mattel WWE Basic Series 5 The Hurricane Review

The Hurricane
  Today I received one of the most sought after Mattel WWE basic figures. No it's not the canceled Elite Jeff Hardy, Its The Hurricane!! The Hurricane is one of those special Mattel figures that only got one release due to him being released from the WWE after ECW was cancelled. It's bittersweet that this is The Hurricane's only release. I mean that chances of you finding one in a retail store are slim to none. Nonetheless here is my review of The Hurricane.
  The Hurricane stands at around 7 inches. The real Hurricane's height is 5 feet 10 inches. Now as you can see The Hurricane is in a green and black paint scheme with 3 H insignias. One on his chest and the other two are on his thighs. I was really blown away at this figure when i got him in the mail today. The detail is amazing down to his hair and mask/ or his face paint.His Superhero gimmick gives this figure the right touch. Not the Jerry Sandusky kind of touch. If you want Mattel's The Hurricane you will have to pay an exuberant amount of money for him mint or loose. I paid $15 for him from a wfigs.proboards.com member. That site is an excellent forum dedicated to wrestling figures.
