Well Mattel aint slowing down anytime soon, Elite 5 has hit out here already, it seemed like it was only yesterday elite 4 hit but it keeps on going!
Legends hit here a fair few weeks ago but i hadnt gotten around to getting any. My intention is to get dusty at some point but theres other things i want first. I did however get austin, being as popular as he is he will probably sell out the quickest. Wont bore you all with pics of him though since theyve been seen, great legends fig though. I thought the scan was weak but in person, has great resemblance, great figure overall and i like the accessories, didnt let the 3:16 shirt go to waste as ive added it to the heritage fig.
Now onto elite 5. I picked up the one i was definitely going to get, Dolph Ziggler. Im going to go back and get chavo at some point. Im considering koslov and arent interested/need the rest. Dolph is by far the best in the set, i held back on the basic for this incredible elite. Theres a few gems mattel puts out, elite orton, elite kane, ziggler is the new one. The scan, whilst not as cocky as the basic one is still really really good. The wrist tape has the design even underneath the hand unlike the basic. The boots have the black straps pained on which make the figure look much better and was one thing i really wanted the elite to have that the basic didnt. The logos on the front also make the attire look more detailed and interesting. Great attention to detail on them and the big logo on the back of his trunks. When i heard the vest was vinyl i thought it may be a little flimsy, just like a special kind of paper material (i know thats not vinyl but it looked like coated paper) but its a pleasant surprise. Its really felxible and has a material underlay, so its still a real good quality piece. The shiny outside makes it more realistic too and would have allowed mattel to print the awesome logo on the back. Overall, a superb figure from head to toe, its absolutely flawless. (Note: No Laycool pun intended).
Highly recommend it!!
So those ar emy latest buys between a few more elite kanes, and a basic 4 hbk. I recommend you guys put the elite accessories on it if you can, they look much better suited on it. and make the basic even better.
Any requests, questions or whatever, just ask.
