Most likely E43 (as everyone's been saying). The rumored lineup for E41 was dead on and odds are the same can be said for E42.

I'm surprised he's getting an elite before a basic

So if E42 comes out around Late April/Early May, the. We should expect and Elite Samoa Joe in time for Summerslam. If I'm not mistaken this is also the set rumored to feature an Elite Kevin Owens as well, yea?

Fandango and the Wyatts almost definitely had Basics first. I remember Fandango fix ups and I was considering buying a Wyatt 2 pack just for the chair until they announced the Elite came with one. Brocks came out at like the same time. If that counts at all. |

I think your right actually about fandango. And for the Wyatts I wasn't thinking battle packs when I made my first post but technically your two for two. You made an interesting point about Brock Lesnar though with his basic and elite coming out almost at the same time. I remember a stretch where some people had their elites and basics both coming out at the same time. I remember specifically with Bray Wyatt his elite was announced the same day as his first basic and both shipped at the same time from RSC. So to go back to the OP question, I think it really just depends on the superstars popularity. Idk if is been mentioned but there were rumors that Kevin Owens' figure was fast tracked because another toy producer was releasing a Kevin Steen figure for Ring of Honor, so wwe wanted in on the action. Same with Samoa Joe from what I heard. They wanted him locked in to an exclusive merchandising deal before ROH could produce Samoa Joe memorabilia. |

If we are looking at an early March or April release date for these sets then I'm curious as to where the pre orders are or even an announcement. Because the DM Austin is scheduled for LATE March so I'd assume if lineups are know RSC wouldn't be shy about putting other such dated pre orders up as well. Which leads me to believe they'll be released later on. |

Yeah I agree ^
I can see them doing rapid fire 3 or 4 sets last 4 months of the year and maybe three sets in first 8 months. Well time will tell January set is out already and can be two sets in 7 months.

They probably don't want to make a unique basic torso for Joe. I hope that's not the case though because I'd love a basic Joe.

I hope so a basic Joe couldn't be to hard his ATTIRE is pretty simple, I mean we had tensai and brodus and I feel like they came out more accurate then Elite counter parts

Basic 59 was put up within weeks of being in-stock, plus the first images we received of Elite 41 was when they were in stock. Strange new things are happening with releases |
