Today upon coming into work I saw that we had stocked Elite 20. We had everyone except Santino, which seemed odd to me...I really wanted Santino and Jericho...instead I made sure to pick up what I wanted before clocking in, so I opted for THE BEST IN THE WORLD BAYBAAAY! CHRIS JERICHO. I was so happy to find it. I love the jacket. My figure has a flaw on the back though, one of the glow in the dark pieces is deformed and seems to be "Melting" off of the jacket...it seems like a factor error, but it's not a huge deal. I'm not sure if you can really see the deformity in this image, it's on the right side of the jacket just below the arm. The headscan isn't the greatest, but I've seen worse. It's certainly better than some of the older Jakks scans (Jakks actually never got it right until much later, all of their headscans for Jericho sucked until 2007) Here's Jericho without a jacket, I think they picked the best body type. The back of his tights have great detail as well, The Best In The World logo looks awesome. The Tattoo on his hand is a nice little detail! All in all, it's an awesome figure. I just really wish I could get the jacket to glow pretty bright. For some reason it's really dim, and I can't get it to show up in photos. I had to shine the flash on my iPhone onto the jacket for around two minutes to even get it to be dim... I'd rate it a 9/10. i think it's an amazing figure, a couple of improvements could've been made but I don't think they could've done them at cost...fabric sleeves or something would've been preferred...or even just a way to move the arms while they're in the jacket. Nicely done, Mattel!

Def a great fig. He was a pain to find at first but I've seen him quite a few times as of late.

Sweet find man! I have been really searching for E20 over the last couple of months but all I've ever seen was 1 Punk, 3 Cenas and a Santino. I bought the Punk and Santino but I'm getting worried that I may end up missing Christian & Jericho, which are my two biggest wants from the set. Speaking of which, I was never able to find that damn BOPPV Elite Christian, so I still have a Big Johnny with no legs. :/

It is a great figure, one of Mattel's best.

Very nice pick up you have there King of Kings, that was a great Chris Jericho figure. It's understandable that you dislike the headscan but after a while it grew on me.

Yeah, I have it and like it. Glow in the dark bulbs kind of suck, one of mine fell off, but what are you gonna do.

I love the headscan, it captures his troll face perfectly.

My jacket had three or four broken. Bought a second for MOC even though I'm an opener.

Still kicking myself for passing on this, definitely getting it as soon as I see it again.
