I want to pick up one of the elite Andres. One has the interchangeable hair and the other has the five o'clock shadow. Then there's the basic from the battle pack. I've heard some people complaining about the cloth singlets not fitting right. The battle pack Andre has a molded singlet, but he's a ... basic.
So, is there one Andre that you prefer over the other or are the elites basically equal in quality?

why would you need an Andre with elite articulation? what did Andre ever do that required a stomach and hip articulation?

I have pics on page 5 of the pic request thread. Both are great, but I like e29 more because you have options of which era Andre you want to display.

In my opinion.....the elite 29 Andre is amazing. I've had no issue with the cloth singlet at all. He has blue trunks underneath, pair that with the afro and you have insta-70's Andre

I prefer the Matty Collector Andre with the five o'clock shadow. Never thought much of the Andre figure until I bought it and saw it up close. Really loved it.

Get the newer andre. Andre also had a 5 o clock shadow during a few Pipers Pit segments with Hogan. It wasnt very often but to say he never had it would be incorrect.

I should have been specific in referring to WM III...I didn't mean to imply he NEVER had it, but still it was more nasty scruff than a real 5'oclock shadow lol It makes the figure look like wino the Giant lol Like he should have come with a brown paper sac haha

One of the Elite ones. Elite articulation is always better and that basic scan didn't turn put very well.

I got the original with the scruffy stubble. I'm pleased with it, but I may wait till more loose pics of the BP pop up to see bout a head swap anyhow.

I don't have the Legends figure. Based upon pics the new Battle Pack one should be awesome. The cloth Singlets aren't terrible on Andre, but are in some other figures.
The only thing, I put the wig on carefully one time and still took a small spot of black off from the hair underneath. And I only did that once because that wig was a crock. Looks awful. I am hoping an actual sculpt with the afro will eventually come out.
The wig is fun on, say, my Neca Robocop, but that's about it.
