It must be hard for them to come up with new attires for Rey Mysterio when he hasn't been on TV in so long.... I'm disgusted that he's getting another spot in this line.
Wade Barrett looks excellent - I'm not a huge fan of his character - but I just might find myself getting this. As much as I hate The Miz, too - his figure looks pretty good.....
I was never a big fan of Trish Stratus, I'll probably skip this one....
Actually, this whole set, with the possible exception of Barrett, is an easy pass for me.

Even though I like the design, it just feels randomly tacked on to this set. I want to know WHO has been calling for a new Mysterio, kids included. I was ok with him getting one in E21 but THREE sets later when he has been MIA from TV for so long? |

That Miz may be one of the best figures they've ever made.

I have no interest in The Miz anymore, but that figure is beautiful. I love the attire choice, too. It's refreshing after so many Miz's in black/gold or black/silver.
Trish's scan looks better than I initially thought. Looks dead-on in the MOC photo. I like the cut legging details.
They should just improvise for guys when they have to re-release shirts. Rey has had this happen twice now. He's had so many shirts, just pick a cool design and go with that.
Barrett's title looks good, I just wish he was in dark blue.

Trish, Wade, and Miz look AMAZING. But Rey coming with the exact same shirt as his previous figure!? Come on Mattel - you're better than this!  Rey has not been on tv in a long time it is his newest shirt ...which has already just been released in Elite 21.  |

Just Barrett and Trish for me. Although I wish Barrett was in the blue trunks. But at least I have extras of the B31 Barrett so I can switch his forearms and hands.

Only one I'll pick up is Trish. The face is a little off cause the eyebrows look a little ginger-coloured, which I'm hoping is the light cause it should be brown. Eye-shadow is pretty thick as well but it does resemble her. The title looks amazing. Normally I don't like it when Mattel does attached clothing on Divas cause it makes them look bulky but it looks decent on Trish. Does anyone have a picture of her wearing that attire???

Does anyone have a picture of her wearing that attire??? Survivor Series 2005 vs. Melina:   To be honest, the figure doesn't really resemble that top. Not sure why they chose that attire, if they couldn't replicate it faithfully. |

That Miz is proof that Mattel can paint facial hair. Now, they have no excuse for Orton looking like he stuck his face directly in a chocolate cake anymore.
Trish's face paint app is great from afar but far from great from the looks of things. Something just looks off about it. I will hold out hope that it's just this figure.
Speaking of paint app... I sure hope Rey's misplaced mouth is also a paint app error cause that looks weird. I like everything else about that figure except for the fact that it's Rey, so I'll pass on him
Barrett is great as expected, but I'm interested to see how the new shirt mold snaps together. I do already have a fabric version of that shirt from ralves.

Barrett and Trish for me. The Miz looks really good, but I don't like him enough to buy his figure, heck I just sold his Wrestlemania Elite a few months ago. I find that with most of the women's outfits, they are designed to look like the original outfit, but have been, lets say de-sexified. The Trish top clear shows a lot more skin in the real pictures compare to the figure, same with the Eve figure. The top on Eve showed more of her chest in real life then on the figure. It had a lot more white covering the exposed areas. We have to keep in mind, that while anyone can collect these figures, they are still aimed at a child finding them in Toysrus. Less skin, less accurate, but the best we're going to get.

I really, really love the grey attire on the Miz since it stands out against the black and red attires Mattel loves. I think it's a nice figure and it's definitely an improvement over his BoPPV one. It helps that I like his current look. <__<

Not a huge fan of the Trish head scan but the ring gear and the title are great.

Noticed a couple of inaccuracies on the Rey figure. The night he wore that outfit, he didn't have a left elbow pad on, and he had a long elbow pad on the right.He also had pink sweatbands on both biceps.  |

I like Mysterio and Barrett from this set. I haven't bought a Mysterio since Elite series 1 so I'm due haha. I'm going to wait for both in retail though as the eye paint on mysterio and barrett can be tricky

cool how the new miz has got a similar boot calf mold like e19 bryan, separate boot and calf mold, i wonder if it will still have the same height as the old miz figures?
