I was just looking at some of mattel's figs and realised that in the basic series, the tattoos on figs are not coloured while on elites, they are... For e.g CM Punk and Orton... Any particular reason why?? I mean other than the fact that elites are suppossed to be "better", i feel that mattel are compromising abit on standards... not coloring tattoos makes quite a big deal of difference....

Well the name says it all, the cheaper of the two figure types IS called "BASIC" after all.

Umm batistas Basic 1 figure has a huge amount of colour. Although given they are basic, maybe some wont have much or limited colour but we will have to wait and see.

Cos they are basic. For the punk especially, it makes a lot of difference in terms of the fig's look.

They said frome the beginning it would be that way. Elites would have the more detailed colored tattoos while baisc would be not as colored.

Yeah but strangely, the Basic series 3 Undertaker that I got have colored tattoos just like the Elite figure....  From photos of the Elite Undertaker tattoos, I don't see any differences between the Basic and Elite tattoos on Taker.. |

Batista and Edge & Austin also received colored tats on their basic styled figures. But they decided not to go with colored for Orton & Punk I guess it depends on the which they want to color. But they did say from the beginning Basics tattoos would be less colored than Elites. |

If somebody has an Elite figure before the Basic one, the Basic one won't be as detailed in terms of tattoos.
I picked up Elite 1 CM Punk and Elite 2 Randy Orton just for the detailed tattoos.

Personally I like the Basic 3 Orton & Basic 2 Punks tattoos more than their Elite tattoos.
