First basic set I’m tempted to get them all & get a Fink too!

Cool that M$M and Rude are Hasbro flashbacks. I don't need/want any of these though. They look nice however. I also, though I respect him, don't need/want a Fink so I'll be passing it all up.

These look fantastic, I’ll be getting them all. I can’t believe how excited I am for basics.

With the nostalgia for the hasbro and success of the Retro line. Would of been a good idea had Mattel made a basic line all based off old hasbro attires. If hasbro made it then it wouldn’t be overly detailed/ paint apps for a basic figure.

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. Being a stickler for paint, I agree with this. That said, it's a dude in a black tux so three of the four our worries should be more or less minimal. Hopefully he's not packaged with his nose directly facing the insert but rather upward so we can at least sooooort of glimpse the paint on Orton's figure.

Definitely 2 of each. Packaging looks awesome. I am really loving the new designs on the packages.

The card looks great. Very retro. But I just don't think I need the Fink.

Something seems off on the M$M...think it’s because the suit coat is closed rather then open as usually worn so we don’t see his belt/cummerbund.
Bummer

These, and the elites are awesome!!! I will definitely pick them up if I see them, but my Wal-Mart's aren't stocking much of anything anymore, so it'll be interesting to see how these play out.

It’s nit picking especially since it’s a basic.

I kinda wish that DiBiase was the next TRU Elite after Virgil with all the proper deco but I'm not sure if it would sell very well. It would probably still do better than The Shark is going to do though. I still can't believe they're releasing that.

Also I can’t believe we’ll have a shark figure and still no Harley Race, Haku, Greg Valentine or superstar Billy Graham. A king Harley Race with a cloth robe would be amazing as a TRU exclusive in custom packaging.

It’s nit picking especially since it’s a basic. Agreed. They should have made the DiBiase an Elite figure so they could have added a shinier coat of paint on the suit. I also wish it was in the packaging like the TRU Exclusive Virgil (gold million dollar belt design) to pair them together. But, I am glad we are getting a green suited DiBiase because I always like that suit better than the others. I also agree with another persons post that the coat should have been left open, I think it would have looked better.
