I think it's a hit for me. I was iffy on the first series until I got my hands on Warrior and was beyond impressed.
Character selection is a little weird but understandable in some cases. The only misfire I see so far is the lack of a Macho Man/Sting instead opting for Cena for wave 5.

I think the Ronda UE is one of the best figures ever made. I absolutely love it.
I wasn't a big fan of the Shinsuke figure. The headscans were way off and the torso looked very clunky. I wanted a new pants and crotch mold to fix the issue that other Shinsuke elites had. Huge miss.
Brock is just unessential to me. The headscans are a little goofy and the torso looks so weird. This is an awesome figure to have those interchangeable hands and double-jointed elbows on, though. Miss.
I liked the Warrior and the Triple H a lot. I'll call them a hit.
Loved the Finn, Bret and HBK. Hits!
I think the upcoming John Cena looks incredible, and the Becky is pretty good for what it is. Hit!
I voted hit!

Miss. Iβve only bought Bret because I buy all his stuff. I really dislike the torso. If they make macho, flair, hogan, or blonde sting Iβd have to purchase as well.

Miss! I'm a huge Bret Hart mark but still passed on his figure. The gap around his jacket shoulders, "The Grudge" hair, and PS2, create a wrestler-looking tights on his attire. Awful. Naka, Brock, Cena, and Ronda figures are ten-a-penny. Plus the Becky and HBK headscans... ultimate? At that price point? Get outta here!!!!

The line is a miss for me. The torsos are horrible looking & what extras that are included doesnβt justify the increase price. Especially since the elite line comes with almost the same value in extras.

I think it's a decent line, but there hasn't been much I've wanted from it so far. I bought Bret because I think it's a stellar figure. I'll probably buy Becky too, but nobody else has blown my skirt up.
Hoping it lasts long enough to get us a good neon cowboy Macho though.

I think theyβre a hit, for now .... but only if they continue to cater to both current and flashback collectors in the same series.
Once they start constantly going towards one side or the other, itβll flop at the retail price point.

Sometimes I feel like Mattel goes out of their way to destroy lines with their character and attire choices.....they are stepping over dollars to pick up pennies

Hit for me.
Ultimate Warrior Bret Hart HHH Finn Balor
All cracking figures. Also for me? Warrior & HHH were HUGE wants in those attires.

Miss. The torsos are hideous and head scans leave a lot to be desired,

Hart and Balor would be *maybe* buys for me.
The rest....ugh. Rousey? Warrior? Shinsuke? Nah. I'm good.

Big hit with me, yeah Nakamura and Rhonda were not the best but every other one has been great. If they could work a few different legends in there I'd be thrilled.

I really enjoy the Warrior. Really only looking for a Piper, Sting, and maybe a Stone Cold.

None of the faces look remotely like any of them, maybe Nakamura. Clearly they didn't use any face tech. The elites are better.

The articulation could be better. The new diaphragm mold actually hinders articulation. Yeah you can pivot side to side but the forward and back motion isnβt all that great, itβs better with an elite. The double jointed elbows are nice and interchangeable heads/arms are cool. Iβm disappointed we donβt have proper ankle pivot, and I would definitely prefer that over the toe articulation. Overall, itβs pretty good but it could be better.

It was a miss. Warrior and Ronda was a nice start , then I started to see them rot the shelves. Then I never saw UE 2 or 3 in stores. hHh was a great addition to my collection , Bret looks cool and so does HBK. But I havenβt pulled the trigger on either yet at that price point.

The torsos look horrible on the figures. That has been the dealbreaker for me. I wish it was just highly detailed elites or ones that come with high quality accessories. Besides those with jackets I just think they look awful in my opinion.
Although, most of the choices havenβt been very exciting to me so far. Even if they had elite torsos there are only one or two I wouldβve considered purchasing.

I love them for the most part, but the character selection going forward has me at a pause right now.
