I actually didn't mind the basics. If anything, I'm not a huge fan of their extreme expressions on the elites and I think the skin tone on the basics is better but that's probably just me

They did a hell of a job on these guys. Massive improvement over the basics!  Oooh, I like how the sticker on the 2nd box is moved away from the belt. It's so simple, it should be this way for all those boxes! Funny, in ckhybrid’s thread the sticker is away from the belt on Akam and over the belt on Rezar. I guess it’s possible that you could find one of each with the sticker out of the away. |

SteveHulk tagging so you can get upset again when you see the hidden belt These are sick though, looking forward to getting them over here Lol... it looks like they've actually moved that front bit on one of them, so you can actually see the belt (...what a novel idea!). I usually prefer the US packaging - but at least with the Euro ones we have, it doesn't have that front bit on, hiding the belts... the (US) Sting and Roman are particularly bad. |

The Elites look like old Jakks figures compared to the Basics...
Thanks for the comparison pics!

60 and 61, except maybe that Triple H have been a huge pass for me. But 62 is amazing!!!

I usually buy one of everyone on the roster. Even basics if I must. But when I saw the basic AOP I could do it. There was no substance there. Nothing redeeming. So much to my surprise, I held off. Now seeing the comparison pic, glad I did. Saved myself a few bucks.

The only belt I ordered from this series was Sting, so I'm hoping for the best. |

I know everyone's new favourite pastime, is to sh*t on basics... but at least the basic Akam doesn't have that cheap, crappy-looking, painted elbow pad, the elite does - oh, and the tattoo looks much better.

I’m not sure if it will fit, but I wonder if the beanie from any Elite Brock Lesnar will fit on them.

Kinds makes you wonder after seeing the basics and elites... why the hell are the basics soo bad sometimes I cant think of any of wrestlers who have such a stark contrast between their basics and elites. AOP’s have a crazy difference. |

Their basics weren't even that bad as far as the overall Mattel basic line. I hardly saw anyone complain. Holy crap though, these elites blow them out of the water. Then again, the E62 AOP are game changer elites in general

AOP’s have a crazy difference. Ezekiel Jackson first basic and his elite. Plus that Ciampa basic and the elite. |
