I'm all for Elite A-Double. It's been one of my most wanted Elite's for awhile. I just can't get past that head sculpt. Hopefully they have time to fix it. Something tells me they won't though. I bought the basic hoping that scan might grow on me, but it hasn't (maybe it needs repainted?).Hopefully we get another to eventually go on that elite. I'm right there with ya. I got the Basic on preorder, as it was one of most anticipated Mattel's. I open the majority of my figures, but Aries is still in the box, as I'm just not that happy with the scan. And you're right, it almost looks as if repainted, it might look better. I can sorta see what they were going for, as he looks to almost have his trademark smirk, but something about it is definitely off. Disappointed with it for sure.

That No Way Jose looks promising and surprised he gets an elite really fast and before other NXT stars but still excited for a new face in the collection. Can't judge those new arms yet due to the fact I haven't yet own any figures with those arms.

I repainted mines eye brows and touched up his hair line, still isn't spot on but looks more like him to me

It looks 1000 times better A figure I'd be proud to display as "1st time in the line"

Dillinger looks too much like CM Punk in the brightened photos. Couldn't agree more.

It should be interesting to see what becomes of the Basic series. I'll be surprised if Eva Marie makes it, because it seems as if Almas, Joe, Owens, and Zayn will comprise the other four slots.
Amazon.ca (Canada) has a few early listings for the upcoming Target Exclusive NXT lines.
FGT42 - Mattel WWE NXT Takeover Basic Figure Assortment (UPC: 887961514322) 19.99 CAD
FGT55 - Mattel WWE NXT Takeover Elite Figure Assortment (UPC: 887961514414) 34.99 CAD

Well I guess I shouldn't expect a Mandy Rose figure in this line anytime soon. MattelDesignTeam doesn't seem to have any interest in her. Haha

Austin Aries and Jose are both looking great judging by those pics. The basics I'll pass on, but with Aries and Jose are definite pick ups.

I don't get how Aries and Bayley both mentioned how you can pick these up right now... are they even released yet?

Can't wait for Aries elite, one of the best of all time and his basic was pretty decent
