Very nice set. I plan on getting Zayn, Umaga, Rude, & IRS.
As much as I like the Rude, I wish they would have kept the previous Rude face and just changed the hair. I think all Rude figures need to be puckering up.

I will be picking up Umaga, Rude and Tyson. Will probably get Zayn just for the title. What an awesome set.

Yeah as others have said, an absolute belter of a set. I'll get zayn, rude, Kidd and umaga. What a brilliant run of elite sets with 38, 39 and 40.

Whoever is doing Mattel's product photography please keep it up. The figures are posed simply but very well in the loose pics, it really helps to sell it more.

They all look great, really looking forward to getting Zayn and Kidd that I pre-ordered.

I wish Elite 39 Sting could have gotten a cloth coat. Rude got one, so clearly they'll use soft goods from time to time.

I think whatever that mostrosity was that came with Elite 22 Tensai was a robe too. I know coats, for the most part, are plastic, but you would think that Mattel would be smart enough to have Sting have a cloth coat. His first handful of WWE appeaances, he did not take off the coat. He didn't take off the coat until 2 weeks before Wrestlemania when he helped Orton! But he dropped Triple H a few times with the coat on, so if I was Mattel I would be smart enough to give Sting a cloth coat so he could be articulated while wearing the coat. The WM Elite Undertaker is coming with a coth/pleather coat for the first time since EG. SO maybe eventually we will get a cloth Sting coat if it's a store exclusive like to TRU. |

I'm actually a little disappointed John isn't coming with that Grand Theft Auto style t-shirt that I actually like he's had countless terrible t-shirts I actually like that shirt so much I went out and bought the shirt so I was hoping this elite would come with that shirt

Agreed that this is one of the better sets. Elite 39 and 40 really have brought it. I'm getting all but Ziggler ... and maybe Cena, but I feel like now is time to get an updated version even without the T-shirt.

I LOVE THIS SET! I am getting the entire set. I love each figure even Cena and to be fair it's about time I upgraded my Cena anyway. So really happy I also get the US title.
FANTASTIC from MATTEL: THANK YOU MATTEL :-)

I think Rude would be perfect, but to me his mustache is too thin, should be thicker in the middle and shorter on the ends.

When we first saw that Rude figure I seem to recall some people questioning whether he ever wore that robe with those tights. Well, while cleaning out a closet last weekend, I found this picture. It was from a house show in either Dayton or Cincinnati, OH.  |

This series is sweet. I have DM Cena so I don't care for black shorts Cena. Am I the only one that still likes (and needs) Tyson Kidd's first Hart foundation elite. Everyone else is a must have. Rude is my least favorite because I have him. Where's Irwin Irwin Irwin ( anyone else remember that chant lol)
