Wow, I can't believe someone found a German mail order company to find a lineup! That blows my mind! Lineup is correct. Giant is Paul Wight from 1997-1998. Comes with a very iconic piece of clothing. I'd bet it's an nWo t-shirt....which will be amazingBig show SELLS in Elite! That is why he comes out frequently. He will have the world title even though in real life he does not anymore. As long as it's not the exact same figure as the WM28 Elite, I'm fine with this.Sandow comes with robe. tried to get a specialized hand sculpt to hold the microphone as he does but microphone accessory handle too thick. Please let the robe be cloth, anything else will be ridiculous lookingKane again? Yep. Another one who always does well in Elite. he moves well so both collectors and kids are buying him, which is always best. I hope they make at least some subtle change and dont just re-release the E19 one....instead put the dark red flames on his left leg and include a shiny Tag Team championshipRock - of course we are going to do an Elite Rock in 2013. Another one where the ccollectors may not need right away but kids snatch up. Could they get his new Just Bring It Shirt out in time? Obviously the boots2asses one can't be made....and maybe we'll get a new scan?Tensai - Trying to afford the Lord Tensai entrance gear at the moment. Another one similar to HTM where its coming down to the wire. Even though he doesn't wear it now, the entrance gear will make the figure 10000x cooler, I hope it can be done, if not...at least give him some kind of accessory (chair, crutch, kendo stick)Bill

I hope it's not Andre the Giant because I own the legends version. A WCW Giant with an nWo shirt would be alright though to compliment Nash and nWo Savage. If its another Rock I wouldn't mind a Rocky Miavia or a 2002 Rock. As for Kane... It only makes sense to have a 2001 Kane.

You know this or just a guess? If he gets one.....I don't like it when I hear stuff like "down to the wire" Has anyone really thought about the decisions behind these choices. I have and I'm worried. It seems to me (guess work/reading between lines) the guy in charge of this line overall has cut MDTs funds down during this bad financial climate and told them to focus more on kids who won't be as bothered about lack of (quality) accessories/new sculpts and value for money. We heard that the Giant figure was scrapped (foreseeable future) but he seems to have been put in to help with costs due to him already been produced to Proto stage. Because come on....who puts 2 Paul Wights in 1 Elites wave...Not professionals... I think Rock wont be getting anything new sculpt wise... plastic shirt The odds don't look good for Tensai's entrance gear. Plastic robe Sandow. Kane repaint Big Show repaint. Giant...plastic NWO shirt. I think the next couple (or maybe forever) of waves are going to be....full of repaints and struggling with accessories. I hope I'm wrong and this isn't a dig at the MDT (unless there secretly evil).

Thanks for confirming, I'm glad this isn't the 4 Flashbacks set. Whew, still have a chance for DX.

I hope Rock's scan is new....they've kinda reached the breaking point on the old one. I can't justify buying another Rock until he gets a new scan.
And Sandow's robe had better be cloth or that'll be a travesty if it's that plastic crap. They should scrap Tensai's entrance gear to be able to afford Sandow's robe. Tensai wore his entrance gear like 3 times.

Good to get the confirmation on what the figures are like. My interest definitely lies in Kane, Tensai, Sandow and Show. Rock could be a good one to watch out for too. Dont care for Giant though.

Seems like a pretty odd line up, Big Show and Kane have only recently had elites made., it kinda sucks that its a money thing just to get another quick buck... I guess they could re-do show with an angry scan and WHC, the only thing they could do with Kane is add the tag title.... which seems like a waste of a spot ... I have my grievances with Mattel, but in all fairness, Big Show only had a recent Elite in the form of a TRU exclusive. As far as being in the actual Elite line, he hasn't had one since series 13 I think. And Kane's gear does have some differences now than when he first started wearing it, which is what Elite 19 is based on.

I would've rather had Mordecai, Just Joe, or Naked Mideon than another Kane or Big Show so soon.
When we gonna get a new Miz? Cesaro? Daniel Bryan in NO! gear? So many others I could think of.

Might skip Kane and Show, depending on Show's head and Kane's accessory. Rock too, unless it has a new head. I've bought every elite so far, so to miss half a series would be very easy on my wallet. I'll get Giant, Tensai and Sandow for sure.
I really wish there was a "NO" themed Daniel Bryan in this series.

With the way Bill described this set...I personally think this is going to be the best series in awhile. I can't wait to see what Giant looks like moc. Rock is the only one that doesn't make much sense to me with how he described it. Same scan would blow. Rock needs a standout figure.

If the Line Ups Real , Im very disappointed with how little Old School Flashbacks we are getting from Mattel. Seems like were down to a small handful every year now Totally agree. It's worrying that with Series 20, 21 and 22, there are only 3 Flashbacks in total - and 2 of them are earlier versions of guys that already have figures...
