Am I the only one going to complain about paper flags in Swagger & Cesaro Elites?!... -.-

You're right about the paper flag. It is flimsy, cheapish and prone to damage easily. I haven't been collecting a year yet so I guess I figured it was standard. Would be nice to have a more durable (cloth) flag. I still stand by my previous comment though that the flag looks nice on a shelf with the figure.

It's a sub-par figure. It has the same skinny body as his previous Elites, ugly mustard yellow hair, and they cheaped out on his singlet & knee pad designs.
Not one of Mattel's better efforts I'd say.

The only thin appealing about the figure is the head scan. The Basic has the same scan and a much more accurate body.

I think it's a great figure... he goes with Cesaro really well too. And you have to remember he probably won't have another Elite figure for a long time (if at all).

I was wanting this figure so badly and I couldn't find it. I finally saw it at Toys R Us last week and I picked it up and was carrying it around. The more I looked at it, the more I disliked it. He is just too skinny. I may end up with him down the line if I find him for $12.99 but not for $18.99. I mostly buy Elites, but this might be one case where I go with the basic and try to find a flag elsewhere.

I had a choice between the elite and the basic during the target sale a few weeks back. I went with the basic for 7.00. Better price and thought it looked better. However once I got him home and opened it up, I found the wrist joint to be barely attatched. So, I may have to purchase the elite to have a more useful updated Swagger in my collection.

I am shocked by this thread. This is an appallingly terrible thread full of garbage opinions. Not to tear you all down or make you cry or anything, but E26 Swagger is probably the WORST ELITE EVER MADE. They've had THREE YEARS to correct their scale problems, and they didn't. At all. If you think the elite Swagger "looks perfect next to elite Cesaro," you are dead wrong. The elite is the same height or shorter than Cesaro, while Swagger is billed at two or three inches taller. Buy the basic. Here's some comparison pics so you 39 people can stop saying ridiculous things like "The more costly and undersized Swagger with the stupid paper flag is worth buying."

Comparison pics made me finally buy the Elite online, lol. Like the black/gray a lot more than the black and silver

It is (for me anyway) because I have been waiting for a We The People attire figure.

I don't understand you people. You deserve all of the terribly inaccurate and halfassed figures you get. This is why MDT halfasses things and says "yeah, sure, why not, they'll buy it."

Usually I get the basic and elite, but for some reason I have the basic and I'm completely fine with it. I'll eventually get it when it's cheap in ebay

Basics are cancer
Elite's are essentially what they say they are
