Hey guys, one thing I noticed when I came back to collecting was Mattel's new take at cena. Between E7 and E17 I believe it's didferent torso, arms, Jorts mold, shoes, and armband. Do you prefer the painted arm band or removable? I like the painted myself. Also how do you like the new low top shoe mold? I know it's currently what he wears but I think they executed the high top kicks better. Your thoughts?

I like new short mold they have been using for cena since e17 I didn't like they way the shorts were long and had those odd looking knee joints in the jorts on the DM cena , e3 cena , e14 cena

Besides adding some sculpted wrist bands like Rey Jr. or Luke Harper's bandanas, I don't think there's much they could improve upon the current Cena body. (I kinda wish they start using the torso and arms for Ultimate Warrior.)
I hated how the old shoes looked more like wingtips than sneakers.

I have three elite Cenas, all of them were the Best of PPV ones (sans Kane BAF). Only one's armband hasn't split yet, but only because it's stretched a little and loose as hell. Slides all over the place. Would much rather have it painted on.

I'm iffy on the new shoe mold. I like it because the ankles were always loose with the previous mold but figures with the new mold don't stand up straight, they're always on a slight angle leaning backwards. The new shorts mold is also a lot better than the last. As for the armband, I'd rather it be sculpted or painted at the very least. His arm and wristbands are the same thickness so I don't get why the armband is an accessory whereas the wristband is painted. All my armband accessories have ripped anyway.

E17 is definitely the best.. Looks the nicest, definitely. Camo is a really awesome deco.

They should make his hats and wrist bands cloth.

I'd like to see sculpted wristbands. The armband doesn't bother me, because I seem to be the only person who hasn't broken any of them.

Def like the newer style shorts & torso. The knee joint & General mold of the older style looks terrible, plus nowadays, his shorts are a little shorter to the point you can see his knee pads. My only small beef with the newer style shorts is there are 2 molds a cargo pocket mold, & non cargo pocket mold for jorts, and mattel recently has just been using the wrong mold with the wrong color shorts....for example like every neon green basic with jorts has the cargo pockets, & his newest elite 34 which is camo SHOULD have the cargo pocket.

I still think the Defining Moments one is the best, but out of the two you listed I'd go with E17.

DM, E17 and the Kmart Exclusive Elite one are the best ones I think.
