just got my set of Elite 21 this afternoon, and man what a set it is, all the figures are great, a few complaints here and there but other than that a stellar set for sure.
Elite 21
Rey Mysterio
I dare say this is the best Rey Mysterio figure yet, I like the color scheme a lot and the new shirt is nice, I know Rey gets a lot of flack around here for being over produced and shelf warming but I gotta admit I love all of his elites.
Randy Orton
easily the worst of the set, not for any reason other then I can not stand this head scan any more, with that being said I collect all Orton elites so this pill was easier to swallow by buying the whole set.
Ryback
I am not a huge Ryback fan, but I like the guy, and because of his awesome gear I will most likely be starting a Ryback collection, I have the BP with Jinder on the way so I'll have 3 Rybacks and each 1 looks awesome, the dumbbells are a nice accessory, the Feed Me More t-shirt is a bit big and looks a little odd to me but its an awesome figure.
if anyone's seen that video of Cesaro that showed up a week ago from when he was in Germany, you'll get this pic lol
Alberto Del Rio
when this set was first placed on pre-order I was upset about Del Rio and Orton, I was way wrong about Del Rio, they knocked it out of the park, I always liked his black trunks and although the magazine is a stupid accessory (unless theres a storyline explanation for it being in there that I forgot about?) i like the addition of the 2 plastic scarves, and the headscan is great.
AJ Lee
I think this scan looks better in person, still not perfect, but it does an adequate job of capturing her likeness, her necklace isn't the same quality as her basic so I will be swapping those out, but the attire is great, the detail is perfect and although it sucks to have an elite spot wasted on a current roster diva it's still a nice figure.
Honky Tonk Man
more than likely the #1 figure in this set to many people, and its extremely possible it will end up being 1 of Mattels best period. Just a stunning figure, the jumpsuit, the actual wrestling attire, the breakaway guitar, the headscan, the only thing missing was the IC title, but thats okay they gave us a lot with this one!
my ONE complaint with this figure, is the jumpsuit is very hard to get back on once you take it off, I am terrified that I'm going to rip it.
Superstar Collection Pics
I picked up some Deluxe Stands recently, and after looking through my collection I realized I have a ton of certain superstars other then Bryan and Punk so I thought i'd take some collection pics
thanks for looking guys, hope you liked the pics!
