WWE BATTLE PACKS REY MYSTERIO AND CODY RHODES

Hey everyone! I know I said I would be reviewing something different, but for today I'll be reviewing Battle Packs 13 Cody Rhodes and Rey Mysterio. So they come in the newly designed battle packs packaging. It's white and red with their pictures on them. Cody is posed with a knee brace in his hand and Rey has his hand up ready to throw down.

First off is Rey. Rey has the same exact head-sculpt we've seen on him in the past. His color scheme consists of red on the left, and white on the right. The mask has white lining on the red side and red lining on the white side. There's a black cross in the middle.

Next are his pants. Rey's pants are the what he usually wears. There's a red "619" on the white leg and on the red leg, there's a white skull, a few crosses and "619" again. He also has black shoes.

Then comes his torso, Rey has a basically, dark tan skin tone. He has all his usual tattoos and some new ones too. He doesn't have the new Rey body so his body is thin and defined. He has two fists with black gloves.


Now here's Cody Rhodes. Cody's head-sculpt is rather odd, he's Dashing Cody in the figure, but comes with the mask. Anyway, the head-sculpt isn't too bad. He's smiling and has Cody's haircut.

Next are his trunks. They're black and has the golden "dashing" design on them. In the front they say, "dashing". On the Back there's the gold "DC", with gold outlines.

His torso is a light tan color and he isn't wearing knee pads. He has an open hand and a fist with a white glove. His torso is also the default mattel body. His boots are silver and black.


The grotesque mask is very nice. It looks exactly like the actual mask and is translucent. There are black straps to fit the figure's head. The knee braces are surprisingly nice. They're black and bendable.

1. Opinion: I love these two figures. I even like the Rey, they're both nice.
2. Accuracy: This is not a very accurate two-pack. Cody was dashing like two years ago, and un-dashing a year ago. Rey mysterio isn't very skinny in real life nor does his face look like that.
3. Collector Appeal: Collectors probably would've liked this a year ago. I don't know about now.


Thanks for reading and check back next Thursday!
