Okay all..... I apologize if someone already did this (better) than me, or if there's a better way to do it....
I scanned it and attempted to stitch it back together...... lost some of the resolution along the way, I apologize in advance..... I may try to redo it with better resolution, but for now this will do.....
Here's the 2013 Mattel Poster.....
Some of my thoughts;
Weakest Sets:
"TLC Superstars" - TRU Exclusive set (I've never seen this, but I'm not impressed)
"BOPPV" - TRU Exclusive (1st set)
Battle Pack Wave 2 - many of these are still sitting at my stores....
Hardcore Kane - Ringside Exclusive (sorry guys, I just don't understand the appeal of this odd choice)
Elite #21 (other than Honky Tonk Man)
K-Mart World Champions (figures suck, cool to get belts with Basics though)
Best Sets:
Elite #22
Elite #23
WrestleMania Heritage Set (Basics)
Triple H - TRU Exclusive
Cactus Jack - Ringside Exclusive
BOPPV 2nd Set (WM29) TRU Exclusives
I notice they have the John Cenas reversed on the BOPPV TRU exclusives... not a big deal.
Looking at the Elite line as a snapshot for the year, it seems slightly disappointing... with such a limited number of slots, it's hard to believe they repeat guys like Kane & Rey Mysterio when there are several guys who still haven't had their first Elite figure yet (Fandango, Big E, The Shield)..... glad to see we got so many legends this year, but it still feels like we don't get them often enough.... when I look at the Elites - I passed on a LOT this year....
A little disappointed that we didn't get a current Elite Undertaker this year.... I guess he didn't really change his look, but then neither did Kane and we got two of those.... I would like one with the "RIP PB" tights & the "Shredder" coat.... I think we're getting one next year?
I think the Wal Mart "T-Shirt" line is a cool addition - adds a nice variety to the year! I'm glad they're continuing it in 2014....
I hope K-Mart gets some good exclusives next year....
Discuss & have fun!
