We all know that E41 Balor, E42 Kalisto, E16 CM Punk, E17 Mankind and such are all great figures, but.. what are some elite figures that are pretty good figures that don't get the recognition that other figures get? We've had numerous underrated figures threads but for this thread I wanted to focus on elites specifically.
These are some of my favourite underrated figures:
-E1 MVP
-E2 HHH
-E4 Finlay
-E8 Sheamus
-E16 Heath Slater
-E22 Kane (this figure is PERFECT IMO)
-E23 JBL
-E29 Erick Rowan
-E29 Goldust
-E30 Lex Luger
-E32 Mark Henry
-HOF Tito Santana
-BAF Jim Ross Series CM Punk (Headscan is spot on IMO)
-BAF Johnny series Christian

Elite 8 Sheamus. Not the most popular guy, but a fantastic debut figure. It was also the debut of Mattel's WWE title belt and coupled with Sheamus' debut figure, it was a great figure overall.
Elite 30 Lex Luger. For a Mattel figure, it's definitely one of their better headsculpts. Crazy how they could get Luger perfectly right out of the gate, but they can't seem to capture Bret Hart at all. Love Luger, and love this figure.
Elite 23 JBL. Not the best body choice, but it looks fine with the jacket and we'll probably never get another one, so eh.

I don't think the TRU Exclusive PPV elites get much recognition, there's been some really cool ones like the CM Punk WM29 Elite.

This figure is so perfect it's almost scary. If the rumor of Kamala being in an upcoming elite series is true, it better be a straight up re release. There's no topping this. I don't know if EG Piper is necessarily underrated, but it doesn't get brought up enough and it's still my favorite Mattel figure. Luger and both Vaders are right up there. The Giant and Doink, too. |

E30 Luger: Not everyone's first choice for a Lex, but this was the version I grew up with, and I'm sure we'll get a WCW Luger in due time. It's a great figure, and a Narcissist could be a simple repaint/deco.
E33 Junkyard Dog: This is a perfect JYD. The body choice was correct, the deco was spot on, the head sculpt had the perfect expression, and the metal chain was the cherry on the sundae. This is easily one of the best flashbacks Mattel has ever done and worthy of much more love than it got, but I suppose overproduction and kids not knowing who he was sealed his fate as a warmer.
Legends Kamala: Another perfect masterpiece. With rumors of his rerelease, I certainly hope this is a 100% reissue so that folks who missed out at first can get their hands on this magnificent figure. One of Mattel's best, but again, his obscurity is where he fumbled.
E23 Triple H: I can see why this was overlooked, as we got plenty of other flashbacks in the wave (Mid-90s Taker, WM8 Macho Man, JBL) but I thought Hunter was very well done, from the tight deco to the sculpt and the accessories highlighting one of my favorite moments from the Monday Night Wars (DX invading Monday Nitro) with the megaphone and army helmet, it was a classic.

I'm disappointed no one's mentioned elite 6 JTG or elite 10 Yoshi Tatsu. Both top notch, yet rarely talked about.
