I'm not sure if this has already been talked about before, but I would like to see the Elite figures adopt double-jointed elbows and knees to allow for a full range of motion. I've seen that on other action figures and think that with all the variety of complex moves seen on WWE TV, double-joints would be an excellent addition.

I like that idea a lot. I would like the torso to be kind a like the ufc ones that have more range for like a sleeperhold.

I don't mind the double jointed knees but elbows look hideous like that.

Elites have double jointed knees which is fine but I hate double jointed elbows because the arms always look wierd when bent.

Elites have double jointed knees Oversight on my part lol But as for elbows, it's kinda hard to pull of some of the more complex wrestling moves with them only having one joint. Yes, they look a little strange when bent all the way, but the human arm is supposed to be able to go hand-to-shoulder, not hand-at-90 degrees. |

That may be, but until the find a way to do it where the elbow is double jointed and looks odd I can do without it as I just display my figures...and I can't think of any figure I'd ever want to pose with his hands on his own shoulders.

I think ball jointed elbows like GI Joes and some other hasbro figures have would be the perfect solution for everyone. I also think double jointed elbows look like crap and really break up the sculpt but would appreciate some extra range of motion.
