This is the EG I’ve been waiting for and I’m not disappointed at all. I would have been happy even if it had used the same face from the Target NXT figures but I’m thrilled to see that this looks to be getting face printing.
This is easily a day one preorder for me

It's the pose, it looks awkward as crap Definitely. The face looks really good but losing it like this is a bad move What's the difference between this and the other headscan?

New face scan technology like elite 54 Usos and Wm34 Randy Orton Hmm... it seems pretty hit and miss to me. I wasn't keen on the scans for the Uso's... and didn't they use it for the E56 Roman Reigns too?

Jimmy's is god awful, but Jey's is really nice. Elite 56 Roman doesn't have it

Jey looks great, no clue what happened with Jimmy.

Hasbro uses this for their Marvel Legends movie figures, which is also has its issues occasionally. That said I feel it’s well established that the paint job plays a tremendous role in the final product. Well that, and the facial expression. For example, angry Uso looks quite good. Sad Uso, with a rough paint job, isn’t quite on par. But it’s early, and Mattel’s work with the technology will improve.

I'll probably have to go with this. Hoping to get an NXT title with either a McIntyre or Andrade Cien Almas.
Hopefully they actually produce another belt in the near future.

Despite my opinions of the figure, I am glad to see Mattel going the extra mile now with Entrance Greats after Angle only got two gold medals. Now I am excited for Balor knowing the possibilities. However, the Balor paint is costly enough, how many more accessories can it possibly come with? I need London Balor.

I think it'll probably be Summerslam 2017, and we'll get the cap and wrist thingies, since the SS16 Balor came and went real quick, didn't he wear a red belt like The Matadores around that time too? They could surprise us with that blueish gray gear and a cloth jacket, but I think they know they're pretty much obligated to put out as many elite demons as possible.

Sweet. I can understand Mattel not releasing a blue robe because perhaps they wanted something different from the retirement Flair DM. Was worried how similar this would be to the NXT fig, maybe this has a better body type. Doubt it though. Happy to see a new scan, very fitting for Roode.
Having a black and white fig may not stand out once on someone's shelf, but it does stand out from the shades of red EG box. I was thinking what were the chances the reported Demon EG could be an Elite version of the basic that was released recently with the NXT ring.

Not sure how they looked at Roode and thought he had the same physique as Apollo Crews, but what do I know?

I'm glad I haven't run around trying to get his NXT figures. This is the Bobby Roode figure I want. I may have to buy two because I'm going to wear out the stand playing his glorious entrance theme over and over and over and over... Al also be considering doing this since al probably play his music stand that much it’ll go bust..fair to say I’m kinda obsessed with his theme 😂
