Just getting around to downloading my photos.... I picked these up last weekend from a TRU in the Upstate (got them for the 2 for $29 deal). I saw the Mattel box sitting up on top of a shelf by itself, so I helped myself and got to pick the ones I wanted:I did a couple of slight fix-ups.....The only Cena fig I had was one of the first Elites that came with the AWA style shirt....however I thought this green version was a better overall fig/scan, so I switched out arms and accessories, then I gave the old Cena fig to a kid next door. I had an older Christian shirt, so I added that to this fig. I really hate this Sheamus head........his first Elite head was perfect IMO. The Sin Cara fig looks to be like Rey...same fig, just a different color scheme.....probably the last one I will get, and I doubt I would have gotten this one if it wasn't a BAF.
These figs have NOT made it to my local TRU here in Columbia...so I was lucky to find them and get them on sale. I have noticed that a local WalMart did have Elite 18....but no Lawler figs (?) and then yesterday, I did hit my local TRU and noticed another fresh batch of Elite 18's there. I scanned the Lawler fig to see what the price would be and it showed up as "price not found-see associate for help".
I just updated my Haves/Wants List....looking for any Mattel Taker fig....hit the link below to check out the photos.
Happy New Year!

I think the Extreme Rules basic head would look good on that Elite Sheamus.

That is a pretty solid set if I may say so myself.

Great set I hope Canada gets it someday. I hate that Sheamus head too. Both the color and style of his hair and the scan are terrible. I recently picked up an older basic Sheamus (Royal Rumble heritage) to do a head swap when I get this one. The attire looks boss though and that Christian figure and belt are awesome! I like Sin Cara's color scheme as well. And I know Cena figures are all alike and over produced, but the elites look great nonetheless. Glad you found them

I gotta get off my ass and get to TRU to see if I can find these. I really want that Johnny Ace and Im thinking of starting a Sin Cara Elite collection

Getting those BOPPV Elite's for $ 60,- is an absolute steal!
I ordered my set from Ebay, hoping they will be here soon.

Nice set, you're right the Lawler did get screwed up in their system. But I got two for 29.99 anyway.

gotta say this is really a great set of elites and ending up with a Johnny Ace on top of the purchases is really top notch,
