Just surfing the net and come across something which has the breakdown of case assortments. Looked at the Elite 16 case and there it was, the cancelled figure...ALEX RILEY
Does this mean there could be a JH situation where loads of the protos start popping up?
I have the link but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post it..?
Also, this maybe old news, I dunno.

It already had 7 Figures, more than an average elite line, i doubt this is true, and yes you will be aloud to post the link, the JH situation was totally different

I thought it was obvious that Riley was the cancelled one from E16.

The Mattel people said he was cancelled if I remember correctly. Cause he disappeared from tv.

Mattel removed Riley and inserted Rock last minute because he lost major TV time. I think he would have sold OK if he was packed 1 per case. I doubt he will ever get an Elite unless he gets a major push some how.

Eh couldn't care less. I didnt see much in him. But replacing him with another Rock so soon after we just got one was a poor decision.

E15 originally suppose to have JoMo, but his contract expired, so they moved up Bourne who was suppose to be in 16, from what I understand.

E15 seems somewhat late for a Jomo as he was already heading out the door during the time peroid that series is based on. I do remember hearing about A Ry being cancelled last minute for a Rock or Orton. But to be fair mattel would've been very ballsy to release an elite set featuring Slater,Jackson,and Riley. 3 guys that were rarely featured on TV for the past year.
It seems Riley has been gaining back momentum as he's in IC title matches at houseshows lately. But either way I'm happy with my BP A Ry for now.

surprised pics of JoMo or Riley never popped up anywhere. I think they should've gone thru w/ Riley.
They have to plan so far in advance. Now he's on TV again........and Ezekiel Jackson is the one who has totally disappeared.

Would have been sick to have a elite Riley. Hmm, would you be so kind as to post the link?

Don't know how this gets out but I guess it did. So here's the story. Riley was replaced with Rock for 2 reasons 1) Riley fell off TV. 2) Orton was orignally going to be shipped heavy and after the E12 Orton stalled on the pegs we knew this was not a good idea. The Riley figure never made it to production prototype stage so there are ZERO Elite Riley figures out there. Anyone who tries to sell one to you or posts on EBay is not selling something that exists.
