The updated packaging across the board is so much stronger than the last few incarnations. Makes me wish I was a MOC collector.
Figures look nice, though there still feels like a disconnect between the chosen figures and the "Network Spotlight" tag. I know some people are just happy to have them, but, uh, I don't feel like heel Big Boss Man and snobby Hunter Hearst-Helmsley are two guys I'd quickly associate with the Network.

Btw any idea on when these are out? When I preordered Helmsley from TRU it had originally said Jan 1, but since then it has been moved back to Mar 9.

Ugh..... I guess I am going to have to buy that Hunter after all.
Getting my hands on that Bossman is a dream to me. Not because I absolutely love it, but because I wanted it from day 1 when I started but had convinced myself I would never own it due to prices. I would get two but I think I'm gonna get only one and get the rumored e43 Bossman too.
I love these new exclusives overall and the packaging

I can't tell for certain, but Bossman appears to have a better painted face. I always thought the eyes hurt the elite 14 and kept it from being a good portrait. These look nice. I'm glad guys like Cena and Rock and Triple H have their debuts since they have been in the industry so long and look so incredibly different now.

I completely agree with you thoughts on Bossman. When these were 1st shown and labeled as 'Network Spotlight' I made the comment that it would have been the perfect time to release a swat Bossman. Especially with how much emphasis the Network puts on the Attitude era.

I'm assuming that, if the rumored upcoming Elite lineups are true, that Bossman will be in his Swat/Attitude era attire.

Triple H for me I already have Bossman, where's Bossmans chain ball?
Soon I hope for a corporation Bossman and a Test figure, please Mattel.

I really like the way they came out. I will def pick up HHH but not sure about Bossman as i have Elite 14 MOC but i may get one to open and have loose. I really wish he was Attitude era though.
