Mattel is following up last year’s awesome SDCC Exclusive Slim Jim Macho Man with another 80’s icon – Mr. T! This WWE Elite figure is a first in line, and features his look from promotional materials the WWF WWE used at the time. Namely the camo jacket, trademark gold chains, gold rings, and bracelets. His wrestling attire features blue trunks as seen on his Saturday Night Main Event appearances. The likeness is really good, giving us a grimacing stare using the TruFX face paint. That’s all wrapped up in a really sweet box, which features artwork of a Mattel WWE Elite Logo hanging off some gold chains (I smell a role play item coming).
All in all, it’s an awesome piece that’s dripping with 80s juice and a great companion to the Macho Man. Mattel was kind enough to send through a copy to check out so read on to see our shots of Mr. T in action! He’s currently sold out, but keep an eye on Entertainment Earth in case more pop up!
