Will get Simmons, Balor and the Hitman vs HBK BP. But I wish they gave Bret the correct knee pads instead of the leg sleeves.

The Balor doesn't seem worth it in the EG line.
I like that the Bret and Shawn battle pack comes with accessories and shines belt.
At least if you missed the NXT belt then you can pick them up with these Revival figures
Kane looks great!

Why does the WCW belt look like JAKKS made it!?
It looks off compared to the other Mattel belts.

On the fence about Balor.
Im always excited to get an hbk and/or bret fig so its a cool set. Since it is kinda hodge podge and not accurate anyway, why not put hbk in a different attire, like the red and white he wore alot on Raw leading to WM12 or even his royal rumble 96 attire. Def some imperfections w the set but Ill get it because I really wanred Bret in his wm12 attire (tho i wish theyd fix the top of his singlet)

Yeah can't wait for the Kane, that's one of my most wanted figs as a recent collector.
Series 3 predictions/wants; New Age Outlaws with tag titles (need these elites) Jeff Hardy with IC AJ Styles with WWE Championship (new attire, possibly baby blue or grey)
That'd probably sell ok

DIY (despite Gargano's scan) and Simmons are the only ones I'm considering.

I guess we’re never getting Takeover London. It’s the only Balor I personally wanted and would buy. Why would you want Jack the Ripper and a chainsaw when you can get a sweet red sash? Wow, that Balor is lame. Seeing that it is Jack the Ripper inspired is probably the reason we won’t get a London Takeover figure.

We got Texas Chainsaw Massacre inspired with a chainsaw so I don’t see much of a difference there. Plus they made a pimp, there’s really no moral high ground they can stand on.

One was based off a real serial killer the other was based off a movie. I think that’s the difference.

On the fence about Balor. Im always excited to get an hbk and/or bret fig so its a cool set. Since it is kinda hodge podge and not accurate anyway, why not put hbk in a different attire, like the red and white he wore alot on Raw leading to WM12 or even his royal rumble 96 attire. Def some imperfections w the set but Ill get it because I really wanred Bret in his wm12 attire (tho i wish theyd fix the top of his singlet) What's wrong with the top of his singlet? Other than the logo being a bit too big.

We already know Paul Bearer is one of the HOC series 3 as an example.

I don't know, looks like Santino's sides are much shorter than Bret's. Needs to be somewhere between Santino's and what they have on the Bret figure (from this thread).

As a whole it is much more accurate for Bret than the higher cut one they use on his basics.

There really is no pre-existing option to beef up Ron Simmon's torso. I bought an Apollo Crews on the cheap a month ago in prep because one of the protos had Simmons with darker skin tone - not accurate but it worked for the fix. Now it looks like the final product has his correct skin tone, except no other figure with a bigger chest has that skin tone. The Rock is probably the closest thing.

Other than the logo being a bit too big. The trim around the center of the singlet should be white as well. It was a fairly unique singlet; pink trim on the outer part and white on the inner part. Not obvious in photos at first glance
