not sure why Big E would be in 98 since he’s in 95
hope mandy comes with a new nxt women’s title
probably will pass on orton unless i really like the attire and it has entrance gear
will wait to see what faarooq looks like
if balor is demon will probably get him
not sure on rick boogz

Sorry but Farooq in his gladiator gimmick is such a waste of an elite. It's reaching to the bottom of the barrel and in pretty sure that it's going to be a shelf warmer.
The rest of the series sounds good though.
I would rather they re release Brutus Beefcake with an improved face scan as there hasn't been one released in his babyface character since I have started collecting.

Well, I was hoping for Elite Xia, but I will take any Xia I can. Does Mandy's NXT look really require an Elite? It's not that elaborate.
Really? Her character is night and day from the main roster, besides it might come with the new NXT white championship. I mean, I guess it's been long enough that an updated Elite would be appropriate, but it's weird to see her as an Elite and Xia, who has more elaborate ring gear, as a basic. The Stand and Deliver entrance jacket might be a way to go here, that'd probably look good. I'm trying to think what else she's worn that would actually make use of the budget.

They will probably add a belt and a pair of wings. She was wearing the red top at Halloween Havoc when she won the title.

Fugees attire would be amazing!

I refuse to believe I’m the only one who thinks a lot of the recent Elite Lineups have been mad rough. Like have the releases hit them that bad?

yeah hopefully this is the start for the nxt 2.0 stars well we should have two more elite waves and two more basic waves after that. so Elite 99 and 100 and Basic 137 and maybe 138. which should be around november so here is hoping for Gigi and Jacey to go with Mandy. and hopefully Kay Lee Ray and Aliyah for the basic waves. Mandy from E98 and Nikki A.S.H from Basic 135 should street in Sept. E99 and Xia Li from Basic 136 should street around october. so therefore E99 and Basic 137 should be November and E100 and Basic 138 around December

Elite 97: I am looking forward to the updated Mandy, I hope it will come with a completely new facescan and belt.
I would prefer literally any other iteration of Farooq than the blue gladiator version but I will probably end up buying this.
I want Rick Boogs to have the ponytail instead of the Freddie Mercury look. Swappable heads would work, too. Not interested in the rest of set.
Basic 136: Odd that we are getting Xia Li as a basic rather than an elite given her tattoos and attire deco. I was sure that the next FTIL basic woman would be Aliyah given her relatively simple attire.

I guess the real question is…do you want the silver or blue helmet? With or without knee pads? I’m voting silver helmet with blue knee pads - how he first appeared in the getup. Also, I’m worried about Mattel capturing the right shade of blue (if this version gets made). I’d love a Justin “Hawk” Bradshaw to go with it.

I’d love a Justin “Hawk” Bradshaw to go with it. Im worried about Mattel capturing the correct shade of Ron himself. The HoC figure is close at least better than whoever those other 3 figures are supposed to be....

Honestly, excited for the Elite 98 lineup. Best lineup since 85 for me personally. Wonder if we get a new style guitar with Boogs??

A 400th Warrior/Macho Man? 678th John Cena? 100th Roman Reigns? Quit complaining
