For someone more knowledgeable than I am on attires - was there any period earlier in the Dudleys' career that they wore something similar to their elite 45 figures? Or was that solely from their most recent WWE run? I ask because I collect strictly flashback characters, but it appears that the possibility of proper ECW Dudleys is growing slim.

It's kinda similar to their pre-draft, pre-split days. Honestly, if you lose the tattooes and if they had different heads, they'd look exactly the same as their WWF Attitude days.

Yeah, I was going to hold off for a more ECW look, but Buh Buh feels like he's still got gas in the tank, so he's not game to sign up as a "Legend" yet. Now, D-Von coullllllllllllllllld get a flashback here soon, but I'm not counting on it.
So yeah, if you're doing a '85-'05 Flashback collection, the Elite Dudleys while not 100% perfect, are completely appropriate.
How's your collection looking? Any pics up here on the forum?

They did wear red camo but it's hard to pass these figures off as flashbacks. Bubba had a goatee and not a beard, hair didn't have the fade cut, he wore a black t-shirt under the camo top, he wore elbow pads, he didn't have those tattoos, logo on back of the shirt was different. D'Von had less tattoos, he wasn't bald, logo on shirt was different. They can be fixed up tho and you'll probably have to if you want a FB since their contract has expired and any planned figures have been cancelled.  |

Tis a shame we didn't get any FB Dudleys. I guess current ones are better than nothing.

You can't really pass the Elites off as ECW Flashbacks - but they definitely wore the Elite/red attire in WWE the first time 'round:  As Fighter Hayabusa pointed out, you just have to make a few changes and they look great! |

I would like an AE Dudleys in one of their many camo attires. I loved collecting the various attires released during the TTL figure heyday. For me the current elites don't work.....I need D-Von with hair.

The Dudley's and RVD almost look like flashback figures and you could probably pass them off as them but it is a shame they didn't get a classic BP of them out
