Quick little suggestion everybody can agree with: FISTS are USELESS!
The regular open hands can be used to hold objects and accessories as well as do things like grab the ring ropes and grab the opponents hand for an Irish whip. Fists can only... well, you know: punch.
Some issues/improvements I'd like to see addressed about the cloth accessories that come with Elites.
Hemmed Edges
Currently, hemmed edges on the cloth goods is very inconsistent. Some items are perfect like Christian's jumpsuit or Dusty Rhodes' polka-dot top. Sometimes the collar of a cloth shirt is hemmed, but the bottom of the shirt and the sleeves aren't (Elite 2 Orton, Legends Austin). Other times the cloth item isn't hemmed at all like Elite 2 Triple H's shirt or Elite 5 Chavo Guerrero's pancho. All in all, those little shortcuts make the Elite product look tacky. Barbie would never come with tattered clothes unless it was in style.

Improved t-shirt fabric quality
I wish fabric used for t-shirts was a little thicker and of better quality. Compounded by the lack of hemming, Elite t-shirts look and feel somewhat cheap.
Add back designs to t-shirts
I'd like to see back designs on the appropriate t-shirts especially for those superstars who only come with a t-shirt. Maybe the velcro can be moved to the side hidden by the arm.
Staining
Lots of people have reported about the dyes of the cloth accessories staining figures. I didn't have any problems with the black of Christian's jumpsuit, but the red of Ricky Steamboat's robe is embedded in my figure's arms. Hopefully, something can be done in the future to correct like this.
Theft
Maybe it's more of the job of store security, but I see a lot of stolen t-shirts. I know it can't be stopped, but maybe a packaging change can at least slow down the theft.
