Thanks guys. Great collection! I got E9 Miz today and the belt is a little flimsy. Did u have that problem? My belt didn't seem bad in terms of being flimsy. I do see where people thinks it's a little big but I think that is largely due in part to the fact that Elite Miz is so skinny. The belt looks way bigger on Elite Miz than it does his Basic which has a fuller torso and abdomen. I just think the WWE and IC titles were perfect and the US Title just didn't end up quite so perfect, but I still really like the belt. I will say I'm not a fan of Miz's coat. The material is a little softer but the arms don't move at all so it really stops you being able to put the title over his should without having it look ridiculous.

Great collection. Love the spice racks. Am I seeing ONLY basics, with elite heads and accessories?
The US belt is gorgeous! It's a little big, but the real belt looks bigger on TV then the rest too

It's a little big, but the real belt looks bigger on TV then the rest too No, I do have some Elites mixed in there but I do find myself preferring Basic figures with part and accessory swaps. The Basics stand much better and I find in a lot of cases that I think the Basic body style looks more accurate on guys, Miz, Punk, and Ryder to name a few. Not something I do out of practice but just something that seems to have happened over time.

Cool collection, man, but I'm definitely confused about why you would downgrade Ryder/Miz from their Elites back to the basics?

Nice collection. The fix ups are really cool.
Where do you buy those spice racks from?

Cool collection, man, but I'm definitely confused about why you would downgrade Ryder/Miz from their Elites back to the basics? I don't think they are a downgrade at all. Miz and Ryder's Elite figures are way too skinny imo, and I think their Basic figures have more accurate torsos. Plus, as I said before, Basics are way easier to display since they don't have the loose joints and extra articulation that ends up knocking over half my set up every few weeks. In my mind, none of the guys in my collection have a better attempt than the versions I have displayed, sans Rey Mysterio who is sentimental because I was at WM22. I do have plenty of Elites in my collection like Orton, MVP, HBK, and JoMo, but I just think there are a number of guys that have had better Basic versions than Elite, especially with a little fix up to arms, scans or accessories. If Mattel were to take the hideous torso joint out and fix the loose ankles then I might buy strictly Elites but that isn't the case. Nice collection. The fix ups are really cool. Where do you buy those spice racks from? Target, they are a 2piece thing and they are pretty cheap. I think they were in the home goods section. I have seen a few people on here pick them up and I thought it was a great idea since I display on a bookshelf and you can adjust the racks to be a perfect fit.
