AJ's vest accessory with exchangeable hood is a little odd. Guess it's cool for displayers, but personally I would've liked some decals on the vest. High likelihood I pick this up.
Wish I would've held off the TNF Sami for this one and the shirt. Also wish we could've gotten a jacket.
That Mankind needs to be mine!

Ponytail head on Hall??? What the F#CK!!!! Why would they do that?
The first AJ was actually better...shockingly
Mankind is amazing, but I'm not getting it.
Berzerker? How random, but still cool. I probably will get him.
Sami and Roland are skippers

That Scott Hall head is the best sculpt or scan he's ever had.

Not a bad set. I'm glad I still haven't been able to find the other Elite Styles, cause I like this one much better and will be picking it up instead. I'm a mark for Hall, and that new head scan looks awesome so I'm sure I'll be grabbing him as well. The fact that they made Berzerker is neat, and he looks good, but he was gone from WWF just before I started watching in 93 so I have no real connection to him and will most likely pass. The Mankind figure is good and all... but everybody already has it since it's an exact re-release of the Amazon exclusive one from a couple years ago, so there's no need to rebuy it. Sami's attire and accessories are cool I guess, but I don't really have any need or want for a Sami Zayn figure. And hell no to yet another boring figure of 'the guy'.

It has black laced boots and kneepads unlike the exclusive (that I and many others missed out on) but other than that yeah, same attire. Glad it wasnt a straight re-release. |

I was planning on getting AJ and Reigns, but it looks like I'll just be getting Hall by himself. They cheaped out again on AJ, the vest and headsculpt are nice, but everything else needs improvement. Where are the kneepads, slightly ripped torso, wrist cuffs, thicker legs and molded belt? Seems like they're also avoiding his colorful attires too... The Reigns would of been a buy had they not painted the gauntlets. Hall is a fantastic figure although I wanted the red attire that says hall or just Chico, hate the stupid leg sleeves. The medium sized pads would of worked wonders and one more thing... Why'd they revert back to small arms? The RSE had the perfect ones, besides that, just Hall for me. I'm buying less and less and it's due to the constant cheapening out... Berserker looks fantastic too.

Berzerker is art. I'm really impressed by five of these figures, but Reigns and that weird scan can piss off. I wish real life Reigns would do more than just change the color trim on his attire to spice things up, but we honestly need a much better scan for him. Basic 37 was tremendous and only got used that one time.

I absolutely love this Scott hall!!
Rather disappointed about this mankind though...it's a waste of a spot imo.

I don't think the Mankind is different enough to make me want it. And I think it should have black knee pads to be accurate instead of brown.
I was hoping Bezerker would be in brown because Jakks made blue, and I remember him mostly wearing the brown (but honestly I barely remember him at all), but the blue is prettier.
Sami is the same as the TNF figure only with a different shirt and a less doofy head scan? Looks like another pass.
AJ's hoodie is interesting. And that chest is so hairy! Three guys with chest hair in this set, very masculine!
Scott Hall had his hair in a ponytail pretty rarely in those days, but I guess it's okay.
Roman I want to punch in his small, plastic face.

(IMO)Hall and Berserker are amazing(though I think people will have a problem with the arm size), AJ is too, except the eyebrows look goofy(should be )  instead of an "O" face.), Sami and Roman are nice updates and I like that they added kneepads to Mankind, considering what happens with HBK figures. This set should go over pretty darn well. |

I never really noticed the missing knee pads on the other one since I have it MOC and the part of the packaging that says his name covers up his knees. Good eye. |

Hall looks great and is a definite buy.
Really thought Berzerker would be in all brown and don't remember him wearing blue but will get anyway.
Not a fan of AJ's sculpt but like the attire and vest so will get and swap sculpts.
Never got the Amazon Mankind so will probably get this one.
3 Sami's in a year is a little much imo but the sculpt isn't bad so maybe.
Roman with blue logo is meh.

Wanted to place an order for RSC Balor and DM Savage so ended up ordering Hall as well. All listed as Early June so hopefully they arrive at the same time.

I like this AJ much more than 1st Elite. Kinda bummed we get another modern US Championship in this wave opposed to AJ coming with the Network Logo belt. The US belt must be Mattel's favorite belt or something.
**Rant** They constantly miss opportunities to include appropriate belts with certain characters. 1st, 2nd or even 3rd Fin Balor Elite figures without NXT Belt. Defining Moments Macho King shows a pic of him on the side of the box holding the IC Belt, but the figure does not have one. Still not a single Sting figure with the WCW/Heavyweight belt.
Hall is amazing. Gotta have it.
Berzerker is a must have for me, because I'm old.
And I might even grab Mankind again to open so I can display him & leave the old one in the package still. |

Scott Hall out of all of them is the one I absolutely have to get. I recently got the Amazon exclusive Mankind and it's not that much different. Only other one I would get is that AJ Styles for the attire but I'd have to headswap as I really don't like that headscan and much prefer the original

That Berzerker figure. As an old school fan I really like it, but man that figure will warm the shelves for a long time.
