If people weren't buying the flashback elite 2 packs the first time around when they went for $30, including The Rockers exclusive, why do they think they are gonna sell at $46? Lol I want this set, but will have to hold out to try to find it cheaper

I hope this sells well so they can continue the elite 2-packs the one that I would like to see be made is the undertaker/paul bearer elite 2-pack I would pay 45.99 for that and that is for sure hope someone agrees .

That Farooq looks great aside from the skin tone. I don't understand why this Rocky has to use the ripped torso but the debut Maivia did not. So inconsistent:/

Not buying. There's already a lot of elite Rock figures so Farooq on the secondary market will probably go for $20 shipped.

Not a huge fan of the skin-tones, as stated before I think Faarooq's skin is closer to The Rock's. But the thing that really bothers me, I think Faarooq had a much bigger chest and more of a "powerlifters" body.  The fig just looks too skinny to me, that's my main complaint, so I will probably pass. |

This thing just went on Preorder and people are complaining that that is going to be the MSRP. When elites go on preorder they're $23-27, what makes you think these will stay $46? Also, I think ZDB_Wrestling confirmed that the Rock is ripped because WWE makes Bill make him ripped.

He looks more like Cuba Gooding Jr and will smith's love child left out in the sun too long. |

Very nice looking set, but I'm not interested.

Highly questionable choice for the re-debut of elite two-packs.

Farooq looks so good, cannot wait to add this set to my collection!
Rock is okay, I mean, he's perfect other than the stupidly ripped torso...but we know why that happens now, as Bill explained it's Rockys people that prefer it that way...oh well

Also, I think ZDB_Wrestling confirmed that the Rock is ripped because WWE makes Bill make him ripped. bill said it was the rock's agent/team that make him use the bigger torso mold and once they use a new torso they cant go back to the old one but the target rocky proved that false |

If Rock had the torso that he SHOULD have, this would've been a home run. Still good tho. And will buy.

Why does the main page say it's Faarooq and Bradshaw?? I mean, I know all about the APA, but how in the blue hell do you confuse Rocky Maivia and Bradshaw??

Great set, looking forward to this! Was hoping to see Kama Mustafa and Mark Henry since Mattel has the rights. Maybe in the main Elite line?
The criticisms are valid though but that won't stop me from buying.
Faarooq: Should be WAY thicker, bigger than Rock. Glad to see the belt accessory though, he loved to whip people with that.
Rock: Shouldn't be so ripped, he was even a little chubby at the time. But I finally get that IC title and the attire is sweet.

Highly questionable choice for the re-debut of elite two-packs. . Agreed. It's not the grand slam I would think would be necessary to re start the line but it's not a horrible choice either. Hopefully it does well. I would have thought if 2 packs would ever come back that it would start with warrior/savage or hhh/hbk dx , outsiders or something along those lines |
