One of the best elite series line ups of all time. Looking forward to seeing the figures.
Well played Mattel

I just hope Sid is in his 1997 era look and not his final wcw shorts lazy attire. It will be cool to have him now just need a 1996 white and gold survivor series hbk to recreate the moment Sid won the belt

Sid is definitely a top want for me. Don't these guys have to have a legends contract or something like that to have figures made? Did anyone know of Sid and Godfather having something like that?

The Godfather - The Attitude Era was my favourite for memories and characters, so this is a must
Damien Mizdow - Just got the Basic but I'll upgrade to the Elite for the glasses and cloak
Dolph Ziggler - Long overdue! Can't wait to see this, hopefully it comes with a great new scan
Bulldog and Sid - A bit before my time so I'll pass on them
Sting - Happy with the Defining Moments figure!

Easily one of the best sets in the line
Possibly #1 if Ziggler's hair is dyed blonde with brown roots, not all blonde

Wow, that's a whopper set! Good doin' MDT! What part choices do you think they will use for Sid? I hope he doesn't come out all skinny like Razor. I would imagine the bare Kane body, maybe with the DM Hogan torso. I also guess he'll get a vest and WWF eagle title as accessories, unless Bill made some really specific accessories like he did for Doink. I can't wait to see what expression they went with, I'm hoping for the serious scowl/bug-eyed look, but will settle for hysterical laughter. If the Sting is from Wrestlemania 31 with a molded red detailed robe, I would have to upgrade this set from whopper to killer. If they do the black one with the red spots, I wouldn't mind that either/as well. |

I'll buy Sting anyway, but I REALLY hope this is a current version.

It will be his look from his 95-97 wwe run, as that is the only time frame where he went with the Sycho Sid name. his 91-92 wwe run was as Sid Justice, while in wcw he was always called Sid Vicious.
It will be his new generation, early attitude era look, which is my 1st choice. I hope Mattel does not back out on the entrance vest, as all he wore was plain black vests with no deco.

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet (too many pages to go through all of them before heading off to work)...
But we are getting closer and closer to recreating this Moment!
LOL. But I'm really excited for Sid and Bulldog!

I'd still say Godfather is a massive surprise. Even though we knew he had the contract I don't think anyone expected to see a figure of him. |

normally the October elite set only has 1 flashback and is kind of a dud (e18, 24 & 32) The christmas set is always the big one. So unless they're going back to only 6 sets per year.....elite 40 is going to top this? I really think that this set will not be available until late November early December at RSC, and it will most likely be the last Elite set for 2015. There is no way these will be an October release, its usually 2 - 3 months from when pre orders start until release. These will go on pre order in the next 2 weeks or so, putting it on target with in the dates i suggested. It makes since they go back to 6 elite sets per year, as the recenlty launched HOF series and the returning DM series are running alongside the elite series adding around 16 new elite style figures to the line per year. |

Looks like I'll be buying the entire set. Just hope I'll be able to find the entire set.
