If you had a friend who wanted to get into collecting, which would you suggest to that person? And why?

Elite is the best for collecting purposes because it is very authentic and realistic as possible.

if he was looking to save money and have a bigger range of "sports entertainers" then basics would be his best bet. i personally think elites are the way to go other than their ridiculous price point.

depends on what he wants to do: posing/animating/displaying --> Elites playing --> Basics

If he is a WWE fan, collect both. Build the collection mainly around the Elites and whatever guys are made in basic that don't get elites, buy those up to fill the voids. That is what i do. I prefer ELites, but ive grown to accept basics in my collection now of certain guys.

Depends what kind of collection he wants? If its to display prob. Basics since they are cheaper and have a bigger range of guys. If he wants to play and has the extra money I would say go with elites.

if they like legends or older type figures (shango,bbm,yoko) then elite is the only way

Elite is very detailed and articulated so elite

First I would buy a few basics. Then Elites.

Basics cover the roster better so I choose them.

I'm a fan of both and have a good mix of them both in my collection. Generally speaking I lean a little towards Basic with Elite or Ralphs clothing.

I prefer basics. They're cheaper, and I hate the elites torso articulation. The elites come with accessories which is nice, but it usually just a cloth shirt that most people take off anyways.

if you want a more "complete" collection, go with basics. there's more variety and more unique characters
however Elites are the best wrestling figures ive ever seen. so overall id choose elite

I have to go with Basics. I agree with TheWholeFnShow, I can't stand the torso articulation of elites. It seems a lot of people here can get over that fact, so if my friend could, then Elites may be the way to go. I'd probably tell the guy to have a lot of money set aside, because you don't find much in stores here, so you have to buy online.
