They all look awesome. That EM Jeff scan might be Mattel's best likeness ever. I really can't decide what Jeff I like the most. I really only need one that isn't a classic version.

The hardyz set looks fantastic minus the cheapening out on jeffs painted on tanktop. I'm really hoping we get some flashbacks soon and the detail on matt's pants are also really incredible,

Great pictures! Its nice to get a good look at this set finally.
One thing I wanted to mention on the use of the tanktop torso. I believe Mattel used the tanktop torso so they could still use the studded belt mold. I noticed that the tanktop torso and the studded belt crotch piece are essentially made for each other, the connections between the two are smaller than most and dont fit other combinations across the line well. You'll notice this on some Dean Ambrose figures that use the tanktop torso, they also use the studded belt mold with the eyelets painted on top. I think it was changed on the Spotlight Ambrose, but the previous two with the tanktop had the studded belt also. The new Elite (57?) Jeff uses a standard torso which they could/should have done on this one also, but does not have the studded belt detail. Seems like a trade off. This isnt to say that they couldnt change the mechanics of the parts, but in the interest of budget I think thats why they went this route. Most would agree that they'd forgo the studded belt for a normal torso, but thats not the decision that was made.

Both are/were flashbacks Entrance Greats and Defining Moments are mixture of past and present. Im skipping present... Although I did get Nakamura for my IWGP title. Ooh, could you post a pic of him with that belt?

Question for Flashback only collectors. Are you buying the EG Jeff Hardy? It’s a figure that would’ve appeared in the main line but since it’s being released 8 years later it’s technically now a Flashback. Nope. Never a Hardy Boys fan. So that and the Epic Moments set are passes for me. If I really need the Hardy boys in my collection I will just pull out my R3 versions and put them on the back row of my shelves.

Never been a Hardy Boy fan, but that E.G. is fantastic. I'll probably cave and buy it

I just got my Hardy's 2 pack. It's a good thing I'm a loose collector, Mattel reversed the belts just like in the Jericho KO 2 pack.
