well i was taking some pics today and i thought id share some i took of e16 punk next to the new wrestlemania punk. i know within time there will be threads of people asking which one is better or which one they should buy first. i havent had time to switch out the legsleeves of doom yet, but i will soon. now, IMO, my e16 punk has numerous visible flaws. the stomach tattoo is off center and the paint application on the trunks is pretty shoddy because it is once again off center. my wrestlemania punk is pretty perfect as far as paint apps go; i really like it.im not a huge fan of the olive green/red color combo, but whatever, he did wear it. i also did notice that the eyebrows of this punk are painted lower than my e16, making it look a lot better in the facial region. so, idk, tell me what you guys thaink, which one do you think is better, E16 of the new Wrestlemania Punk?

It just pretty much depend on what attire you like because they are the same figure. BTW are all the Elite 16 Punk's like that( tattoo)?

WM elite. Those eyebrows make a huge difference. The e16 has a almost befuddled look in his eyes where as the wm elite looks pissed off. I also dont like the olive green, however the black and red is great. Now just need to get one myself.

In my opinion I believe that WM28 CM Punk is the best I really the paint job over Elite 16 CM Punk also I rather have him wear the WWE Championship over wearing the BITW t-shirt.

I already have the current headscan fixed up and painted more accurately so I can easily headswap it out with either figure. For me personally, I like the WM28 figure better for 2 reasons.
1. I want Ricardo so obviously I'll buy it.
2. Even though CM Punks is getting a ton of figures made he doesn't have too many short haired Elites, and the attires on E11 and E16 are too similar. I understand that yes they are both accurate for what the figure represents, but still too similar for me to want to spend $16.99 on basically the same figure. At least this WM28 figure has attire that stands apart from the other 2. I still think a shirt would have been a better accessory than a dull WWE Championship that will probably wind up in a fodder box to never be seen or heard from again.
I never saw E11 Punk where I live, and E16 has yet to hit shelves. We just got this WM28 set this week and Punk is the fastest selling one out of the bunch, I hope I find one next week.

I prefer wm28, I prefer him in more generic looking attires...I know he only wore wm28 a few times, but I like that style, (same as basic 18, bp17 & 18). His e16 attire is awesome, but I have a feeling that attire prob won't be worn that often now that he is a heel & that attire will be associated with his face run

Neither of mine have the flaws you mentioned. I have to go with e16 because of the bitw shirt. Such a great accessorie for him, dull wwe title does nothing for me.

E16 has the face.. and the WMXXVIII has the attire.. I'll say its a draw. They both have the same body anyway.

It's crazy how Mattel's eyebrow/eye/hair painting makes such a huge difference. After seeing people's custom painted faces...it's 100% better. Anyway thanks for sharing, I can't wait to get my hands on that Wrestlemania Punk.
@dan68's sig hahahahahahahaha.

Yeah, I personally like E16 Punk's shirt. WM Punk should have a shiney WWE Championship, not this dull one.

I like MITB more than WM Gucci colorway but can't go wrong with either.

It comes down to which attire you like really. I would think the off center painting is just the specific paint application on your fig. I personally like the WM attire EXCEPT for that weird olive green. Its the one thing that really bugs me about that figure. Meanwhile the white looks so nice on the E16. I personally would choose e16 anyday just because that wm attires green really bugs me. I think E16 is the definitive punk and with the t-shirt, its complete.
