Well...my 2 MattelShop orders arrived today. The 2 packs 9, Sheamus & McIntyre I ordered on Saturday and Regal I ordered on Sunday. As a lot of you know I'm a basics collector so the main reason I got the Elite figs were for the accessories and in Regal's case...basically the entire figure except for the body. I'm still undecided if I'm going to swap heads for Sheamus & McIntyre although I'm leaning towards yes on Drew and no on Sheamus. For some reason I like Sheamus' basic scan better.
I must say the belts are beautiful...especially the IC. It looks like an exact scaled down replica. Blowing anything Jakks did out of the water by a mile. The WWE title is also very well done. It's missing some paint in certain areas but I'll fix all that in the next couple days. But it's a lot more detailed than Jakks version.
As far as Kozlov goes I got him yesterday specifically for the coat so I could add it to my basics figure. Was hoping to find the variant version with the logos on the sleeves but had to settle for the normal. Works good enough for me I guess.
Anyway...here are MOC & loose pics of all the figs I've gotten in the past 2 days including my compete fixup of the basic 4 Regal I did using his elite parts. Basically swapped out everything except the torso, upper legs, boots & right arm. I can now say I officially own a 100% accurate basic William Regal figure.
Enjoy!
Here is the basic Kozlov with the jacket on.
Here is my basic Regal fixup. The head looks a tad big without the robe but I'll probably never display it without the robe anyway so it works fine for me.
And here is what the elite Regal looks like after I stole all the parts off of it.
