11. The Sandman (Landkasterstone)

Check out that snarl on Landkasterstone's version of The Sandman. This is a nice mix of 2000 era Sandman in ECW and the one WWE hired in 2006. He's even wearing the sleeveless t-shirt from those first appearances in WWE. That facial expression is the obvious highlight though.

Picture blood running down Sandman's forehead following a few brutal steel chair or kendo stick shots and you have the best character model imaginable. Much like Umaga, some of the tattoo work could have been blended better, but that's nitpicking when the face, hair, outfit and body type are all so perfect.

Also of note are those grooves on Sandman's forehead. When years of blading are recreated in video game form, it makes hardcore fans like us very happy. This is an improvement over Landkasterstone's fine Sabu model.
