Suited figures can be elite (Virgil, Okerlund, BAF JR, BAF Kane, BAF Heyman, mail away Vince, mail away HHH, etc) and have all the same points of articulation as regular elites or they can be basic (BP Triple H, this DiBiase, Corey Graves, etc) and have the same articulation as normal basics. Ahhhh ok. Thanks for clearing it up. I only collect elites so I didn’t know the difference. Thanks You can even compare the images on this page. Fink is elite. You can see the extra articulation on the upper legs and knees, plus the articulation on the upper arm instead of elbow. DiBiase doesn’t have the upper arm articulation, nor the upper leg or at the knee.

Really love the packaging. I kinda wanted an Elite of that Rude but I can see why they’d do it in Basic.

It doesn’t matter because it looks like I’m stuck buying the basics anyway haha

I guess Mattel finally found a way to get me to buy TitanTron Live style basics: an elite build a figure. Damn you Mattel <3

Love these but HATE the fact we can't see the parts. We are pretty much at the mercy of Quality Control in regards to a decent paint job on Fink.

This is going to warm hard. Bob Orton is going to be sitting on the shelf until this series is canceled. 4 figures of guys that kids won't know and the collectors already have elites of. I feel like I'm looking at 4 Tito Santanas in the making.

I feel like I'm looking at 4 Tito Santanas in the making. If they were Elites, they'd be harder to move. Because they are basics, I believe they'll move fine AS LONG AS Walmart doesn't send 7 million cases to each store. All basics were hard to find at any Walmart in my area during November and December. The basic price point appears to be attractive to the average toy buying parent.

Also as a (best Karl Anderson impression here) NEEEEEEERDD i'm slightly disappointed as I thought they would include cards like the NXT figures, oh well.

I have plenty of BAF parts that I really only need the head from this. And of course it comes with the one that I have zero interest in.

Packaging is awesome. death of the line is that they refuse to sign new deals, good for everyone who missed out on orton but we got a rude slaughter and Dibiase within the last year and change

Iraqi Slaughter is a first. There's unlimited potential for Rude with all the different tights he wore.
