Elite Pants And Shorts Thoughts

Cloth is pretty tough to scale. MOC collectors would probably go crazy looking for well-packed figures without pinching, stretching, or askew attires from the packaging process. We have the staining issues possible.

And the question of most importance: what would figures have underneath the fabric bits?

I love this idea.

I’d prefer interchangeable legs. Pop off shorts at the thigh and replace with black track pants.

I give it a 0.25 chance of it happening.
Mattel is really stingy with their SG pieces. They have only so much to spend for each figure(s) & releasing more SG pieces in the same series or more often isn’t going to happen. I’m all for SG on figures.

I could see that happening with Brock. Have we seen any images of the UE Brock yet? I don't think it'd really work that well for Michaels, because his chaps seem like a tougher material to approximate than MMA shorts.

Also spandex for everyone’s tights, and real hair on all the figures. Why is Mattel cheating out on us when Hasbro could put hair on figures 25 years ago?

I'd definitely love to see a soft goods HBK entrance attire. Jakks did an awesome job on both IYHDX and SvS97 Shawn as far as soft goods entrance gear. Mattel already made the DX attire but we know the SvS gear is going to be the UE figure. So maybe we'll see it on that one. I wouldn't complain if they redid the IYHDX attire, though. That's definitely one that could benefit from a do-over imo.

I'm not into seeing soft shorts on Brock but maybe we see it on the UE figure. I think it's a good idea for 2-in-1 figures but there is always that risk it turns out like that Elite 5 Swagger singlet. I really don't know how they're going to make Brock deserving of an UE figure but cloth track pants/shorts/shirt would all help.
