I would say this is the best series since Eite 69. Every figure perfectly executed. Long awaited debut figures for the raiders, beautiful updated figures for Bayley and KO. This is a truly great set!!

That Ricochet is pretty disappointing but it's an ok set besides that.

I enjoyed e77 (Still waiting on my Viscera from EE, this is the last time I order a non-exclusive from them)

That one qualifies with Fiend, Rude, Liz, Viscera. I may be forgetting one other than AJ which was meh. 78 was the wooooorst. They messed up riddle so badly.

Bayley came out awesome. Looks just like her. Weird hair and all. This whole series was knocked out of the park. The Viking Raiders go hard.

Not really. Most the elite sets these days are kinda average. Never really want more than 1-2 from a set. More-So enjoy the legends and PPV series elites.

Overall it’s pretty solid. Vikings Raiders are mostly great, Bayley is great, the KO/O’Riley/Richochet figures are fine enough updates.
The only big gripes for me are Erik has twigs for legs and Ricochet doesn’t have a new scan as advertised and his tattoos are on top of his wrist tape. I wish just once they’d have a cloth hooded vest also. Not a fan of the solid plastic ones.

I am going to say not for me. I didn’t preorder anything from E80 and I’m only planning on picking up Rocky Johnson and Kyle O’Reilly when it hits locally.

I think if they got Erik's kickpads down correctly I'd say it could be for some. If you're an independent wrestling fan this is 100% THE set for you, minus Rocky Johnson. I personally haven't wanted an ENTIRE set from Mattel in a long time since the Retros, so hopefully that changes soon for Elites! But so far E80 is good from what I've seen.. I personally think Viking Raiders could've been top figures of the year if Erik didn't have that kickpad issue. Ivar is perfection though. *Chef's Kiss*

From a personal standpoint I’d say yes. Ordered two and might order two more. Ricochet and Owens are great too, just don’t fit in my collection.

Ok jobber You really don’t have much room to talk yourself. He gave his opinion and in a polite way. Calling him out because he’s a relatively new poster is lame as hell.

Ricochet looks like he has the buddy murphy crotch piece with maybe shawn michaels upper legs? Same lower legs and boots

Not even close for me
Only one I will end up grabbing is Rocky Johnson if I run across him at retail
No interest in any of the others at all

Ok jobber You've probably been a mid-carder for what, a week? You're still a jobber compared to most of us. I'm not that much above you, but you're a glorified jobber. You probably spammed posts just to hit mid-card status. If there was a "lower" mid-carder status you'd be in it.

I am going to say not for me. I didn’t preorder anything from E80 and I’m only planning on picking up Rocky Johnson and Kyle O’Reilly when it hits locally. This. Honesty, after getting multiple figures from 77, 78, and 79, this set is a huge miss for me. The Bayley is a great figure, but I don’t collect the women. I just got an Elite 66 KO and honestly, this one isnt much better. I don’t watch NXT, so pass on O’Reilly too. I’ll grab Rocky at retail if available, but not gunna hunt for it. I don’t have a Ricochet, so maybe same thing, but I’m not a huge fan of it, so I might go with an older one. For those that love the set, that’s awesome, enjoy. But for me, huge miss with the choice of characters. Much like 76.

Honestly. I only order bayley and the raiders. Mostly 1-3 figs per set I wanted from the last few sets. Now elite 81 & 83, I ordered 5 out of the 7.
