My SES CM Punk. Basic 7? head with E11 body and short black knee pads. Any suggestions? If you have the Elite 6 Punk shirt, that would make it the perfect SES Punk.

And some hair clippers too! I just happen to come across a series 1 cm punk which gave me the idea for the SES figure then i ordered the basic head and ultimately decided on E11 body because its my favorite attire after E16.

I really wish they’d start molding the singlet torsos in flesh tone! They look like total dog crapwhen they paint the flesh.

I give Mattel a lot of flak sometimes, most times deserved, but I also have to give them credit where credit is due and E56 AJ Styles is the best AJ we've been given to date. Sure he needs a thicker torso and thicker legs, but this is MDT - they're not going to go against their spreadsheet. Also not including small knee pads is a crime, and if that artist who's painting those useless card backs is taking away from the knee pad budget, then I hope his contract runs out shortly. But all in all, it's some minor fix-ups that hits this AJ out of the park: added small knee pads, slit the elbow pad, and added the WWE title: Not sure what to do about a blue arm band, I don't want to go the route of blue electrical tape.

Lol the stands and backdrops included with the figures don't. Take away budget from the figure. I think MDT has covered it several times.

Have they covered that several times? I think Bill said it was because of deco hits. Still a stupid excuse though since knee/elbow pads are an important part of most wrestlers’ gear. I hate having to dig through my box of spare parts just to have a complete figure.

Agreed -- it's bad enough that I don't buy any figures with singlets anymore... these days if I really need the figure/character I'll buy the parts piecemeal on eBay and swap them onto a generic body so I can get Ralph attire for it.

Bandalero very nicely done brotha. That’s exactly what I’m gonna do when I get E56 AJ. I have an extra Spotlight AJ so I’ll probably swap that arm onto E56, so he can have the arm band. Doing Mattel’s job right as usual but I’m used to it 🤷🏻♂️

ClashOfStyles what I'm confused about is that Mattel originally removed the stands from the elite line because it was an extra cost to the budget only to bring it back. I also wonder if box art has a toll on the budget of a figure as well, let's take the rsc dx Shawn for example.

Have they covered that several times? Lol not trying to start anything, but I know the topic has been mentioned and covered in some q and a's and threads on the board, fella. I agree, it'd be nice to have the knee pads though it's a great figure with or without them.

Unless Mattel actually makes their budgeting data public, we’re never really going to know for sure. All we can really do is guess.

I think I may have posted before but all this punk talk got me wanting to share mine. I’ll post my E11 after work.

BestLookingInTheWorldSweet punks! I didn’t love the e16 punk head but I went with the head on Elite following that one, smirking one. E20? Less of a MITB ‘11 look but works for a 2012 & added the belt like you did

Thinking about picking up Slater/Rhyno Elites. Any suggestions on how to fix Rhyno's arms?
