The Sasha scan is...something. The attire and the accessories are incredible, though, so whatever.

First reaction... They're rubbish. But, with the glasses on, maybe Sasha will be okay. Same, tired head sculpt on Savage.. But at least we get a shirt. I'll swap it out for the Elite 23 head I reckon. Wasn't planning on getting the others and I've seen nothing to persuade me now.

Nice! Ok here's what I have to say, and it's not much at 2 am in the morning.
Sasha- Ugly.
Big E- Definite pickup. Looks really good. Not sure how I feel about that screaming scan. I'll have to see more pics. If I don't like it I'll swap the head with his basic New Day figure.
Braun Strowman- Looks great! Perfect IMO, will pick up.
Tugboat- Wow! Looks really good. I'm gonna pick one up
Macho Man- Easy pass

That Tugboat is a thing of pure sweet beauty. Macho is nice too, the shirt was the best way to go I think. Really glad I preordered them both.
Big E and Strowman are really nicely done as well. Sasha has a great jacket and accessories, but. Man. That's a rough looking figure.

Odd that Tugboat isnt using the Tugboat scan that's on Shockmaster....Might have to do a head swap there.

Hoping this is a rough proto of Sasha. That head is R-O-U-G-H. Is it me or does that look like Naomi? Still, worth it to get the accessories and head swap.
I'm down with Tugboat and Strowman. Both look great. I'd still prefer a two-in-one Tugboat/Typhoon with cloth clothing, but whatever. I'm sure Typhoon will be coming.
Big E, I'm not sure how I feel about this scan, but I'll get him.
Macho Man, I'll wait for a sale. Agreed on the head choice. Why not E23?

Maybe I'm crazy, but the Sasha scan looks fine to me.
And even though we know it wasn't happening, I'll say it again that it really sucks that we can't get jackets for Macho Man any more. He was KNOWN for them!!

Sasha - cool accessories, but I'm really not a fan of current divas/women in the Elite line Strowman - looks great Big E - not sure about the screaming scan... Savage - yes! We get a top! Tugboat - looks good... I think he's going to shelf-warm quite badly though, unfortunately so why was macho not the dm? ...to p!$$ off MOC collectors, of course!  |

Big E looks amazing. Can't wait to get him and finish off New Day.
Macho came with a shirt. So despite the fact they keep using that sh*tty headscan I will buy it. Glad they got the kneepad right.
Sasha's scan looks bad but with the glasses on you're probably not going to be able to tell. She might be better in person too. They obviously struggle like hell with the Diva faces, especially as of late it seems.

Aw yeah!
Big E is awesome, love that scan, it's very him
Impressed with Strowman, I had fears he might end up too skinny like some other big guy Elites but no this is great
Sasha looks incredible in terms of attire and accessories, this picture doesn't put the headscan in a good light but it may look better in hand and or with the glasses on. Failing that I've got a spare Basic

Thanks for posting these pics.  I never thought I'd say this, but Tugboat will be the gem of Elite Series 44 when it's all said and done. Mattel did a phenomenal job on this. Sasha's likeness from the neck up is B.A.D., plain and simple. Hopefully the attire is painted as clean on the final product. Big E's expression still doesn't capture him all that well, but it will look much better alongside E42 Xavier and E43 Kofi. Strowman could actually use a goofier scan like Big E's, but I'll take what I can get. The Elite is a slight upgrade, nothing more. Savage is good for what it is, but I don't know very many people who are clamoring for an Ultimate Maniacs version of him (or Warrior, for that matter). And for what it's worth, I don't have high hopes for Sin Cara. A set of NXT Tag belts might just sell me on the whole set, though.  |

Whoa ....
They actually gave savage almost all of his accessories !
And Big E got his 3rd straight new elite mold
Tugboat got a molded shirt. Wasn't expecting that.
Strowmans good but I thought his pants have been mostly a lighter color during his run.
Sasha banks looks loaded up!! All those awesome accessories and y'all are bugging about some early prototype eyebrows? Smh..if you haven't learned to not judge by first pictures, You'll never learn I guess
Good stuff !
