Went to Kmart last night and found all of Elite series 5. Didn't buy Rey though since he's just a repaint. I noticed that Swagger came with his blue singlet on? I thought in the WFigs review of his figure that his blue singlet was not on him and was in the top right corner of his box? Is the one I got a variant? Anyone know about this? Also, after looking at the figures I believe that Henry looks the best and Kozlov looks the worst. His head is still not accurate. How can Mattel not be able to make his head scan when Jakks made a great one of him on his very first figure?  Mattel's head scans can be better, but that's another story.    |

Yep its a varient Swagger, dont know ifts worth more in rarity or not though.
I aggree Kozlov needs a better scan, and that jakks did a better job at it, but mattel has a much better body and is to scale, which I guess is a plus.

I liked Jakks Kozlov head more also, but always thought it was too large for the body they put it on. And with his Mattel Basic 2 figure I felt it was too small for the body. I still haven't found Elite 5

You don't want Henry??? His is great! Especially since it's his first "Deluxe" figure!
Thanks guys for the feedback. I'll keep my eyes out for any news regarding Swagger's packaging.

Aw man, the figure I want most from this series by far is Rey.  But then, I did pass on his first Elite (and am extremely happy that I did, I LOVE the new colour scheme). Chavo and Ziggler especially look amazing. |

Great pick ups. I just found E5 @walmart. No Rey Rey though. I left henry and chavo behind. He's a great looking figure. Especially with the pancho but I except him to be a held warmer. Swagger is a great figure! Love the double outfit. The I've I got he was wearing the singleton. His head scan is better then B2 but not perfect. Ziggles.....no he's perfection!

Ok so then maybe the one in theWFigs video is a variant with the singlet off? I am shocked all of you guys are passing on Henry. I'm not a fan of Henry but his figure looks great. I agree Chavo looks great too!
I still need to find EG Dibiase and B5 Hurricane.

I have Swagger and Ziggler from Elite 5. Nice figures, they are probably 2 of the best in the entire Elite series. Nice buys, man. Hope you enjoy.

What the  . My Kmart has had the same Elite 1 Edge and Basic Series 1 Triple H since January 1st. They LITERALLY have not changed a thing in the toy isle in over 5 months. I come on here and every else is talking about how their Kmart has Basic 5, Elite 5 and Legends 2? Seriously....why is my Kmart so bad? |

Well the TT6 Koslov's scan looks much better than the other two attempts by Mattel. So it goes to show they can do it.
I found the Elites yesterday at Kmart. But I just bought Ziggler & Swagger to fix up my basic versions.
Very nice find on the variant Swagger. Haven't even heard about it till now. Congrats.

Mine was the same way until this week. They did the reset and put out EG Ted $$. The lady I had check on E5, which they didn't have, knew about the upcoming HOF Event. She said they are going to be doing the whole front of store displays and merchandising like Kmart does for any other of their 'events' |

No. I agree it looks like it's a great looking figure, but I have the Basic 2 figure which is more than enough for me when it comes to Mark Henry. I'm not really a fan of his so I'll pass on the $15 figure and leave it for someone who wants it. |
