Alright then, These lines don't bother me since I don't buy them and they kind of remind me of the WCW toy biz days. My issue with these lines is when they take money out of the elite or hasbro line to deliver one series of some weird monster mash franchise then never go back to them again as they rot on the shelves. Oh well. ...again? Really? *sigh* Seperate lines have seperate budgets. The money doesnt come from the elite line. And if they cancel this, the money doesnt go into the elite line. For the elite budget to go up, it would mean a price increase. They wont add expense without adding profit. To summarize...this aint got to do with the elites. Please people, please get this. I would have thought everything is under one banner with WWE Mattel, I had my own thought and who cares if it's wrong but I forgot people need to be rude to point out how they are right. I'm sure you are in deep with the accounting department, most companies will cut the budgets in one area to add or take away from another. That's how I viewed it, but no need to act like a smart ass to correct me.

Oh wow. These get ankle articulation and regular arm articulation but the basic figures can't.

Never bought any of the Zombies, though I was mightily tempted by the Wyatt before it was revealed his next Elite will come with his entrance jacket. Have never seen Mutants in stores near me (knock on wood). These don't appeal to me either, but I will say the carding is pretty sick...

Not sure if kennyw86 works in the accounting department or not, but Bill ( who is in charge of WWE Mattel) has come on here and stated this himself. Each line has their own individual budgets.

Honestly I hope future series have Harper and Rowan. The Zombie Wyatt will look great next to this Braun.

From what i know, here is what they are supposed to be Jake Roberts - Mutaant Snake Man? Braun Strowman - Frankenstein Undertaker - Bat Chris Jericho - Mummy Asuka - Roman Reigns - Wolfman Maybe she's suppose to be Asuka as Paige. ...again? Really? *sigh* Seperate lines have seperate budgets. The money doesnt come from the elite line. And if they cancel this, the money doesnt go into the elite line.

That's how I viewed it, but no need to act like a smart ass to correct me. Bill (MDT) and the MDT member before Bill have said it numerous times the budgets don't affect the other lines budgets. Each line has their own budget and if one line is cancelled that money isn't going to be added to an existing wwe line. *Edit Marino beat me to it.

I guess these are continuing where Zombies and Mutants left off. Jake and Jericho are pretty cool though.

And obviously I never saw bill post that, And it could easily have been said to me to way you guys said it, without being rude or someone being a smart ass. I never once tried to defend that I was right at all, I just made a comment as if the budgets effect each other, I still don't see how they don't but I'm Not trying to convince people they do if bill says they don't.

It's been said before, but it bears repeating. These are toys aimed at kids and collectors. Sometimes they gotta strike the balance to keep revenue coming in and everybody happy. So they give collectors some nice elites, and give the kids some crazy stuff to play with! I mean, just seeing that Jake the Snake, my 7 year old self would have been asking for him and the Mighty Max stuff right next to him, had these monsters come out back then. I like this twist, and somebody's buying these boogey monsters, or it seems like they'd have let the line finish with the last zombie run. Yet my son, who is 9, is still asking about getting that crazy zombie Stone Cold, because he thinks it looks cool. I find the fig a bit gruesome myself, but I think they're hitting some good marks here, and appealing to the kids. They're not for everybody, but we must be happy when the kids are asking for these toys, too, as I highly doubt the adult collector world could keep the WWE brand afloat by itself. There are still parents being begged around the country about whether their tots "can get these, pleeeease" and I'm all for it.

I was really drawn in at Jake Roberts, but then the rest severely disappointed me

They missed out on having John Cena as the Invisible Man.
...Or is it really there, and we just can't see it?
