I think the reason for the brown hair on Elite 11, is because this figure represented when he first took over Nexus when he had the shorter hair with the blond highlights/frosted tips. So maybe that kind of subtle detail wouldn't translate well on action figure, so maybe this was Mattel's way of compromising by lightening his hair color from black to brown. Just a thought.

Anybody try acetone on the beard of B24 yet? The b24 attire is the one he wore to Elimination Chamber (more or less, they missed the white stripes on the sides) and he didn't have a beard which seems to be why they didn't sculpt the beard on.
I get it, you don't want a scan to go to waste, but you also don't want people scratching their head about not remembering the 2 weeks punk didn't have a beard out of this year.

Basic 24 (which will also be used on elite 20 I think) is the best CM Punk head sculpt yet.

I actually didn't like the headscan at first, but i most def prefer that good ol cm punk smirk over the blank stare the elite 16 headscan has lol. The ropes on my ring were purchased from a fabric store, an elderly lady actually recommended them to me LOL. |

I dig the new B24 scan, but he's gonna need a new scan or re-tooled scan with the fu-mamnchu lookin beard thing and his buzzed head. They can actually maybe resculpt the RSC exclusive because he looks pissed, has a buzzed head, his beard is just long.

To be fair to the E11 Punk having brown hair, his hair was pretty light when he took over the Nexus.   |

They should just start using the Elite 11 scan and try and actually paint it properly this time instead of giving him brown hair but with a jet black beard. YEAH THE ELITE 11 HEADSCAN IS THE BEST PUNK HEADSCAN MATTEL HAS MADE. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. wE mEET aGAIN cAPTAIN cAPITAL lETTER. |

I felt the smirk suited the bitw attire more than the original elite 16 head. I wouldn't want to use up all the posts so that no one else could post anything..i made sure i didn't have anymore ideas before posting this. ;D |

eh, it's alright. his previous 2 scans (E16, E11) are far superior with the E11 being the best.

Why does your del rio have a beard !? HAHA!!! I was hoping nobody would notice that!!! He was one of my extras and I was going to use that head for a custom I was working on. Instead the head went back on del rios body and was used as the base for measuring everything for the custom ring i built. good eyes!  |

As a Punk fan it I can look at it sometimes and say wow that looks fantastic but on other days say that looks nothing like him, but essentially as a MOC Collector it makes no difference to me.
