the only extra articulation i would want is whatever it takes so i can pose Piper putting a sleeper hold on someone. other than that, its fine as is.

I want double jointed elbow. The ones that says double jointed elbow doesnt look good, thing is you can just bend it at one of the joint and still treat it like a single jointed elbow, so the option to bend it one more time would be nice for those extra poses that needs the articulation. Thats about the only articulation point i want them to add.

You should check out an SH Figuarts sometime and get back to me. I just got a Kinnikuman figure from them and I like it but I don't think the extra articulation they have compared to Mattel's wrestlers looks very good. I really like the Mario and Luigi they put out though.  |

I really like the Mario and Luigi they put out though. With him I think it may be that the sculpt itself is a little wonky. In my opinion the Revoltech turned out better cosmetically:  You have to admit though, it is pretty awesome to have a wrestling action figure who can pull off literally any move you can think of and not have it look awkward. A double-jointed elbow at the very least doesn't seem too much to ask of Mattel for our Elites, which I will buy even if they fix nothing, as I did with DC Universe Classics despite them not improving anything and using the same basic body for years. Great av by the way. I miss him. |

And not everyone wears elbow pads. |

I feel like the basics need a more dynamic stance, like their legs need to be a little further apart. Right now their legs are too close together.

Interchangable hands will probably never happen because of safty issues. I can see them being a choking issue. The reason I think this argument holds no weight anymore is because Japanese companies have done this for years, and now even Hasbro is getting in on the act with their Star Wars Black figures and Marvel Legends. The new Iron Fist comes with plenty:  These are "adult collector" lines the same as WWE Elite, can we stop pretending only kids want these? The basic, cheaper line is for them anyway. Don't really care about double jointed elbows Knee pads can be fixed with a simple switch Toe joints seem pointless. They literally do nothing. Nothing other than improve posing by adding stability, and making poses look more realistic? Nothing other than that? Also, what "simple switch" would you suggest? Doing some sort of custom work involving another figure's kneepads and paint? Or slicing a hole in the kneepad and thus damaging the figure? None of this should be necessary. Mattel should fix the kneepads. Really baffled by people actually arguing against better articulation on figures whose primary selling point is their articulation. Those hands! Is this a Kama Sutra figure or something? I mean, where's "the shocker" |

And that's nothing. The Toy Biz one had articulation points in the hands so you could do it yourself:  |
