I'm not much of a collector anymore, but I will travel through hell for that Tyler Breeze figure.

love seeing all those Bo Dallas figures!
Great to see Mattel finally nail Ambrose's scan too
That Tyler Breeze scan is one of their best too!

Oh goody... more HOF figures we can't buy for less than £35-40. Is that because of the shipping or because of scalpers?

AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! There's so much awesome! Let's start Hall of Fame set. The second series topped the first one by a huge margin We're getting two new guys, and four new head sculpts! Part of me is disappointed that we got bearded pony tail Windham (with no glove) but then the rest of me tells that part to shut up because he will finally be mine!!!! I may have to give him a glove or fist tape, but that's ok. Plus Arn and Tully are in the red and white gear I wanted from the start. I'm perfectly ok with them being repaints and having two of them as well. I just wish there was a better pic of Barry. I was just talking a few days ago about wanting Tito in that exact attire, o that's pretty great. Eddie looks perfect, Yoko's sculpt is great, and I'm loving that Hogan (with another new head scan). I hope I don't have the problems finding them that i've had with series one. In other news, Sting looks great and comes with a soft coat. I'm really digging that. Neville and Breeze almost make me want to collect basic figures. RSC Hogan is awesome. I need that Lana figure, and the Colter. Steph and AJ are also tempting. I really like Ambrose's scan. Th pink shirt makes me smile, but I know that's just because it's early. I hope the elite Bo comes with a cloth shirt, but I'm not counting on it. I also wish we knew who else was coming in the elite set with him and Ambrose. I'm really hoping for a new Rollins. I didn't even know this thing was happening, so this was an awesome surprise. Now to walk away from the computer for a few minutes to come down from this high.

Awesome news. The new scan on Jericho looks sweet. Definitely picking him up, along with HoF Eddie. Enough basic y2js. Let's get an elite! I couldn't agree more. A flashback Undisputed Y2J to be specific

Everything looks awesome. Couple random thoughts:
Super pumped about the HOF Hogan. As a kid I loved the WM9 ending (even though as an adult I understand why it was kinda lame, but whatever) and it's the same attire as the Hasbro mailaway, one of my favorite figures of all-time. Fantastic to have in Mattel form, and they got to it much earlier than I expected.
Tito is a super pleasant surprise. Any first-time legends we can get in the HOF series is terrific, and he's been on my want list for a while now.
Yoko and Eddie repaints are cool too.
Love the Four Horseman pack, like everybody else. Only downside to me is the lack of accessories ... personally I'd prefer them to be released separately because the shirts, vests, robes, etc. are my favorite part of the Elites but I get why in this case they're all bundled together. Will look really cool MOC too.
Some really pleasant surprises with some other ones, too. I try to stay away from basics but Nikki Bella, Steph, AJ and Stardust in particular are out of this world accurate. That close-up of Stardust is so similar it's freaky.
Great job, MDT!
Mark

YES!!!! FINALLY we are getting a Tito Santana figure and its from his early days just like I was hoping for. However, I am disappointed that they are not including an IC belt with it. They should have painted on the t-shirt and included the belt as the accessory but it is what it is, now I just need to contact Mattel about the availability of the HOF set in Canada. I hope this will not be a Target exclusive again, if it is then Mattel needs to make this set a TRU exclusive outside the US, this way those of us in Canada, Europe & Australia will be able to purchase these figures. It makes no sense IMO to isolate the fan base, why are those of us in other countries where there is no stupid Target getting shafted?! The Santana figure also sets a precedent, a new, first time in the line figure as opposed to just repaints which is what the other figures are (as well as the figures in Series 1). If this line continues next year, I think we will see other first timers included such as my other 80s want- Greg 'The Hammer' Valentine! I thought for sure Snuka would be part of the HOF set, its too bad Mattel screwed up the first time around and did not release barefoot Snuka as the figure in the Legends line. If they had, there would be no need for a second figure- hopefully its released at some point in the future. Not overly impressed with the HOF set (aside from Tito), not sure why they need another Yokozuna as well as Hogan. They are pumping out Hogan's this year, I think its a bit too much and I think there will be a lot of Hogan figures clogging the shelves. I would have preferred a Macho Man w/robe instead of Yoko due to his upcoming HOF induction- perhaps Macho will be the mysterious 4th DM figure that has yet to be revealed?!

Interesting choice for the Hogan shirt, isn't the Hulkamania shirt more popular, that would have been my choice?! They should make a variant of this figure, one batch with the Hulk Rules shirt and another with the Hulkamania shirt.

That Nikki, Lana, and AJ tho. I might have to buy like 4 of those AJ's to put the headscans on all my other AJ's. Sting with fabric coat. You're nailing it Mattel. Awesome!!! That AJ is indeed awesome. I'm not even a fan of AJ, but I'm picking that up. None of her scans up to now have looked like her.

Hulkamania was definitely burning a little hotter when he wore the Hulkamania shirt, but he wore the Hulk Rules shirt for a couple years and it's pretty iconic in its own right.

I'm beyond happy with everything shown. I'm an elite collector and some of these basics are must haves. Congrats on some great figures mattel. I have only on complaint. They can't due it due to copywrites... but the gloves on sting need white letters. Other than that. WOW.
