Question about Roman Reigns vest material

For those that have TRU, E51 and E38 (I have TRU and E38), are both the same harder plastic? I really dislike the softer plastic used on his Network Spotlight figure and don’t want to buy another Reigns figure with the same plastic used for his vest. I’ve been considering buying E51 and was just wondring if it was the same as his older Elites (Pre Network Spotlight)
