I crossed the line today from Jakks to Mattel when I started my Mattel Collection with Elite series 2 Ted DiBiase. On the look out for the rest of Elite 2. Gonna just order Elite 1 online since i can't find them anywhere.

Together we can RULE the galaxy as Father and so......err.... Nevermind, LOL.
Dibiase is a great Elite figure. Nice to see you've finally converted. Some Mattel figures that I would recommend that even the Jakks lovers would enjoy are Basic 2 Mark Henry and Kane. And Basic 3 Undertaker.

The Jericho from that series is amazing. That and the 2 pack, when I saw loose pics of those I drove around for hours u until I found them. I also have John Cena from that set, I liked that it didn't have the arm band, not sure why but I just liked it more that Basic 1. I also got Batista but I should have passed, it's ok but Elite 2 is way better. |

Welcome aboard. Elite Orton, Rey, & R-Truth are others I would recommend. But Dude is right Mark Henry & especially Kane are great figures.

I am only collecting a few mattel like Glamrella, Elite Orton, Cenas, reys, HBKsetc. Don't really feel like i converted yet. I'll stick mostly to Jakks and won't buy so much.

Welcome I suppose....LOL I fully converted and love it. I've actually sold the majority of my Jakks collection. Although I collect Mattel almost exclusively (I don't think I can pass on Motor City Machine Guns or The Beautiful People) I'm not buying like crazy like when I first started collecting Jakks. I feel I spent too much money on some mediocre pieces and now I cherry pick.

I feel like Mattel would more likely be referred to as the Rebellion... I'm a bit bias towards Basic over Elite, so I will say, pick some up if you can find them. The Elites are great though, so enjoy your growing collection!  |

The Mattellion? back on topic glad to see someone new become a fan,If you lived in my area you would have no trouble finding MVP and Edge from Elite 1,Cm Punk is a little harder to find but Undertaker and Rey Mysterio are the hardest ones to come by but a couple places have them |

I left the darkside pretty much within days of hearing that Mattel got the WWE license. About 80% of my Jakks collection was e-bayed within 2 weeks of the news.

I had to convert! I had my second thought's,but once I seen some mattel's in the store I went crazy.I figure what I don't get now I might not find later once the jakks runs short and all the kid's go mattel crazy.

UPDATE: I Just added Elite 2 R-Truth and Matt Hardy.
Also to Bob Sacamano thanks for the offer but I have an opportunity to get Elite 1 MOC for roughly $30. So unless you can beat that so I can try and get Elite 3 for around $50.

How strange. There are tons of Elite 1 Undertakers here in Singapore but very expensive. No one wants them!
