I'm waiting to see a new HHH one though.
I hope the eltie scan of Kane ends up on the Wrestlemania 26 figure. It's just cool to see people like Cody Rhodes and Santino get new faces so quick. JAKKS use to hold on to a mold for as long as they could.

I am no expert, but for the scans of Jericho, Santino, Cody, Batista it looks as though they are the same scans as before, but with a slight expression change, which is great, it keeps the figures freash. Brilliant idea by Mattel, something Jakks did not do.

yeah expression changes can make the figure seem new if its a repaint etc. And i like the idea, beats any reused scan plus the detail is quite amazing too.

yeah. Mattel is rockin it hard on keeping things new and fresh.
Like Matt Hardy. Still not the best scan. however, matt already has 2 different head scans.
Jakks kept the same head scans for a year sometimes before letting go.

Remember how long they held onto the Orton heads?
The first one in RA1, the screaming head with curly hair, was used well into the Evolution days. It was brutal. Then they debuted a new smiley one a few years later with the Legend vs Legend Killer IE. Great pack, good improvement in the scan, but still way off. Wasn't until I believe the first Hell in the Cell set with Undertaker from 2007 that we got a RA Orton head that actually nailed it. They never bothered to even attempt his shaven head look that he had for quite awhile.

I agree! I love how they are giving us options. Not to mention... Punk, Batista, & Edge all have two scans out with only three series released.
I'm hoping Triple H & Swagger both get better scans soon.

Oh yeah, Swagger needs one because it's the only bad Mattel head so far, IMO.
I just thing HHH's could be better also.

i think the hhh scan is ok. needs more of a smurk on his face and his rr figures hair looks better just needs a point and they got it.

Here's a list of people who have had multiple scans...
Chris Jericho (Slight expression change > 2P1/SS1 and Basic 3... BRAND NEW - Elite 4) Matt Hardy (Elite 2 and Basic 4) Batista (Slight expression change > Basic 1/SS1 and Elite 2) Cody Rhodes (Slight expression change > 2P1 and Elite 3) John Morrison (2P2/PPV2 and Elite 4) Kane (Basic 2 and Elite 4) Edge (Elite 1/Exclusive 2P with Cena and 2P3/PPV3) MVP (Elite 1 and Basic 4) The Miz (2P2/PPV2 and Elite 3) Shawn Michaels (2P1/SS1/RolePlay2 and Elite 3/Basic 4) Big Show (Basic 1/2P3 and Elite 4) Finlay (2P2 and Elite 4) Christian (Elite 3 and 2P4) The Undertaker (Elite 1, PPV1, PPV2, Basic 3) Kofi Kingston (Basic 1/PPV2 and Elite 4)
I believe Santino's is only painted differently. I want new scans for Triple H, Jack Swagger, Evan Bourne, and CM Punk.

I want new scans for Triple H, Jack Swagger, Evan Bourne, and CM Punk. Taker only has one scan out they are just painted differently. He does have the new SDCC exclusive scan though.

I'm pretty sure the Cody scans are identical and so are the Santino scans. I'm looking at them side by side right now.
*edit* maybe cody's is different but the 2 santino scans are definitely the same.

I agree, and let's hope that Mattel keeps it up, and improves on scans.

That unmasked scan repeated on the same fig 20 times and even shown in paint variation on others. Sheesh.
