I love what Mattel has done. There's no perfect toy out there, and Mattel has to appease various collectors. Those who collect MOC don't worry about loose joints. Those like me who collect out of the package but simply display them, can get away with loose joints (and some super glue), and others want to play with them and have full mobility (which they nailed with E19 Kane).
Looking back on what Jakks had done, and what we have now, is a HUGE leap forward. Although we have many Rey's, he's in scale! There can always be improvements, and I wish (like many) that the legends line was still around, but at least they give us Flashbacks.
So I say bravo to Mattel! No hatin' from me!

Mattel has been successful, to me, in creatng the best wrestling figure line thus far. The figures are great, detailed, use mostly correct parts and the majority of problems we complained about as collectors for years have been nearly totally fixed my mattel.
I love collecting their figures, the only thing I could nitpick with is saying that I think they should step it up w/ proto pics. Lately, it seems most new sets we dont see pix of anything until it hits retail OR until a week before the pre-order comes in stock and most of the popular figs have sold out.
On a whole though, I love collecting Mattel WWE figures and plan on keeping it up for years to com,e hopefully.

Mattel got me back into collecting after close to 5-7 years with NO interest in figures. I know a few other members can parallel that statement and that speaks for itself really

I got the E17 Cena last week and at first found the legs to be weird, they are so much better. They kinda remind me of small action man legs.
