The more I see these figures the more impressed I am with how everything turned out. Not much to complain here if your are WWE mattel collector looking to add certain talent to your existing collection. Thanks for the images and enjoy your new pickup..  |

Man, if they nailed the skintone, this figure would've been literally perfect it seems. Love all the details in the tattoos & all the damn accessories. Tremendous first exclusive for AEW & RSC.
A couple of Qs if you don't mind:
- How's the articulation in the chest & waist? Good crunch/back arch?
- Are the appetizers separate pieces from the tray? (Love that they painted all of them.)
- Would you say the AEW belt is on par with Mattel's offerings?
Thanks for the pics!

A couple of Qs if you don't mind: - How's the articulation in the chest & waist? Good crunch/back arch? The articulation is great. Double jointed elbows and knees. They are nice and tight. The chest and waist get about the same amount forwards as a mattel. - Are the appetizers separate pieces from the tray? (Love that they painted all of them.) The olives bowl is the only thing that comes out of tray. Rest is all molded. - Would you say the AEW belt is on par with Mattel's offerings? Def. the belt is a very nice. Only issue is it is a little bit of a pain to close around his waist. Idk if it’s the plastic they used but only issue I had. After a few mins I was able to get it on him. Thanks for the pics! |

Quick request: would you be able to post a pic of the AEW belt on a Mattel elite? Wanted to see how it looks/fits.

Love that the figure doesn’t have a size 2 waist like his Elite ones.

Mannnn. This figure looks so good! I’m really bummed I didn’t order it, but I thought Series 1 would have made it out before this.
It’s cool to see how well they scale with Mattel and great to hear the articulation is better.

Ok, the head doesn't look nearly as bad here. It gives me hope for the main line figure.
He's certainly, um... bloated enough.
Fuzzlebeans. I hate= seeing people I grew up watching get old. Wrestlers really do NOT age gracefully.

Great pics. Mine was supposed to arrive yesterday but something happened at White Plains. It said it had left White Plains at 3:03 am yesterday, but then at noon it updated again saying it didn’t actually leave White Plains Until 11:30 am. So by the time it got to my PO it was too late. So I have to wait until tomorrow now. Do they still have the side rocking movement at the waist? That’s the one POA I didn’t care for when they first showed the figures.

Well we all get older and change over time,but yes Jericho is getting bloated,his hair is getting thinner and he's lost a step in the ring.However he's get a great talent and a massive name for AEW,kind of think of him now ala Hulk Hogan's return run in WWE in '02.But on the plus side after he's done in the ring in the next year or two he's going to make for a hell of a commentator for AEW moving forward and is going to become the voice of the company.
As far as the figure goes looks great to me besides the mouth which looks a bit off and odd.The skin tone is fine as really not even Mattel can nail a proper skin tone and unlike Mattel atleast the AEW line are all the same color when it comes to their bodies(have so many Mattel figures where their arms are a different shade then the rest of their bodies i.e. Wrestlemania XIX Booker T)

I agree. I don't see much ring-time left for him but he's still a good acquisition. We all get old, I'm getting old too. I hate it. I'm not sure whose face offends me more these days, Mine, or most of my old Attitude Era favorites. Although I showed my one friend who doesn't really know wrestling the E41 Lita and the BP Lita and she said the modern Lita was prettier. She said flashback Lita looked ugly. Honestly, it's the facescan, but some people really age well. Shane was at his most attractive (for me) at age 44. It's a thing. I like the figure. I can't wait to see the rest of this line, and I really need to be seeing some painted protos of Series 2 |

Great pics. They've really impressed me. Obviously some work to do with skin tones, but isn't a sticking point for me. These fit perfectly into our collections, and that's just an amazing win for collectors.
I don't know that we'll ever hear much since this forum is mostly collectors, but I'd be interested to hear how kids feel about Unrivaled vs. Elite when they hit stores. As a kid, the double jointed elbows and extra motion would totally win me over. And there are some kid-friendly chracters, even if they don't watch the product.

Exact same thing happened to me. Told me it was in Monsey at 6:30am but st 11:30 said it departed White Plains. |

Jericho looks really well done and to have a great update with the arm sleeve tats is awesome, the accessories are really different and unique. Of all the wrestlers who make the sporadic comebacks to the ring Jericho re-invents himself every time.
