Christians worn that outfit way more than just Wrestlemania. He's worn it in TNA, many ECW shows and events, at least one Raw, and When he won the ECW title from Swagger.
I think its great, the entrance gear itself looks big on the real Christian. So it looks great. More of a ECW debut face sculpt but good and the best sculpt thus far. Don't see why everyone wants to hate.

Tag Series 2: Shad Gaspard - this figure just seems off. Tag Series 2: Finlay: Body is way off

Guess I'm the only one who likes the basic Punk. problem was,they had a great,near-perfect headscan for the Elite 1 Punk,which came out BEFORE Basic 2....seems almost like they regressed...if the Basic figure had come out first,it would be thought of more highly...unfortunately,it was trumped by something better...

Id say basic CM Punk, and theres 1,000 shelves across the country that would agree with me. It just looks so off, hes one of my favorite to watch but that figure is pretty bad. I have to disagree with that statement. Remember when Series 2 was first shipping from Mattel's factories he was still a fan favorite and heavily packed at 3 or 4 per case..But by the time they found their way onto the shelves he was a heel so many of the kids didn't want him anymore. so after the collectors got their set of basic 2 there were still extra Punk figures on the pegs...yet for as many Punk figures I see on the pegs there's almost just as many Swagger figures who was one per case. So the way I see it when I walk into a store and see 10 Punk figures that was heavily packed and 7 or so Swagger figures that were shortpacked at 1 per case I say Swagger would have to be considered worse than Punk.

Guess I'm the only one who likes the basic Punk. you might be. I mean, Ive passed on it every time I go to the store, atleast 10 times Ive seen it and decided to just not get a figure. And I want a cm punk too, just every time I look it over I think theres gotta be a better one. Im ordering the elite next week and the basic in red looks good too, i dont know.

Thats true. But around here at every tru theres about 20 cm punks, 1 swagger, 2 jericho. and thats it for basics. walmart and target only have basic punk usually. I thought it was weird, but it makes sense after reading that.

I'd go with Swagger as well. Not because of the headsculpt, but because the figure's so damn small. Swagger in real life is a big fella, but the figure has him about Kurt Angle size.
It's not my least favourite Mattel figure. I prefer it to Primo, Kozlov and Finlay -- but the reason I don't care for those figures (even though I bought them) is that I don't give a damn about those characters. The Primo and Kozlov figures are pretty perfect though, and Finlay's is decent.

i would say the worst head scan will be Basic2 Punk, Elite1 Punk, Elite3 Cena, 2Pack Cody Rhodes & the upcoming Elite 4 Big Show. All were not perfectly scanned to their real face

I even passed on Basic 2 CM Punk many times even with lots of consideration.... Then I happened to find Elite 1 again and im overly impressed. I'd definatley recommend that over any other CM Punk.

I dunno man, that RR Punk figure that is comming out looks to be amazing! Can't wait to see that one in person.

Swagger by far. The headscan is what kills it... the rest is okay.

How about that Orton in Red that came with Triple H in a belt set? That thing was horrid.

Swagger and basic Morrison had awful scans imop. I thought they nailed Finlay's scan in the two pack like Jakks could only dream of, but the body choice was very poor. I have to say the Triple H scan does nothing for me either.
