What were they thinking?
It's an old attire, 2012 ish, and the mask is LITERALLY a repaint of the 2003 Ringside Exclusive Kane mask. You can even still the designs on it, they didn't even bother smoothing it over. Is ANYONE getting this? You're better off getting the new Basic Kane.

Eh, they tried. He wrestled on the House Shows with that attire mask less.

I'll probably get it, as I haven't missed an elite yet. I wish they'd at least used the singlet torso for it though. Doesn't make any sense to have his outfit be two years old.

Yes I am getting it... Simply because it comes with the set of 6 I ordered lol it would have cost the same if I grabbed the 5 individually from RSC on pre-sale
I'd like to see the headscan Maskless if possible

So basically so far: Everyone's buying it because 'it comes with the rest'.

I like Kane and try to get every major figure, but that one can leave. I already have Elite 22, which is the same body, WITH the mask. No need to get this lame elite. Interesting opinions here.

I'm sure that was mainly a proto and will look a lot better when it does come out.

I will get it, I mean it might have some flaws but to me it's miner and besides I can't help but think its cool that it has a removable mask and I do not have any elite Kane in my collection nor basic so this will do.

I'm pretty happy that the E31 Kane has a removable mask because it's something different.

I didn't even plan on buying it when the lineup was announced but I love that it has a removable mask. I had planned on getting the 2003 Exclusive but I prefer this one instead, like Punk said he wore this attire unmasked on house shows.

By the time kane comes out it'll be a year and a half since his last elite and mattel already said they want kane figures on the shelf... He isn't for collectors, he's for the kids

I skipped the others with molded masks. Might get at retail or price match hopefully if it drops. Not my favorite kane attire, but the removable masks are a very nice touch for modern kanes

I was a bit disappointed it wasn't a Corporate Kane... something like black pants and molded white vest, with a cloth or plastic removable shirt/jacket piece. Mattel have said that Kane is a good seller though, so you can't really blame them for doing him in his more wrestling-related attire. I will be buying him though, as it comes with the rest...  |

Honestly, I think Mattel owes us an explanation on this one. Given their extremely good track record when it comes to Kane, it doesnt make sense how much they dropped the ball on this one. Why is it a 12 year old mask? Why is it not the attire he has used since WM29? A prime opportunity to release the tank top but instead a complete rerelease of e22 with a different head? It just doesnt make sense. Why are they avoiding his tank top attire? The accuracy on this Kane practically stops at the globe, boots and wristband. The rest is wrong, just wrong.

I don't think they owe us anything. I would have liked a new Tank Top Kane, seeing as it's been what? A Year and a half? But then again I wanted 28 to be a new head for Bryan and instead we got his 2012 Look. in 2014. |

An explanation would be nice because often it's extremely insightful when they tell us reasons for why they did things. I wish we could know how or why this Kane is as is because its just not even accurate for a time period at all even though Bryan was. The choices made on that E31 Kane are just boggling. |
