I wonder too when they make wacky figures like that if they don't sell good if they end up blaming the person the figure is supposed to be of? Like "Oh apparently nobody likes Rene Young"? Thats not how figures sales work. Figures are made by Mattel, lisensed by WWE and distributed to retail stores. They come in cases of more than one superstar. They get paid regardless of how many sell, theres no way to check once theyve been sold to retail stores. Every basic has the same code, same for elites, etc. Video game sales work a similar way. They get paid for their likeness, not how many units move. Thats how tshirts work

Renee looks like Mika Rotunda and nothing like herself. Greatly disappointed

Kofi looks like he snorted some crack. That's a bad figure.

kofi looks like he's on crack. That side, I do like the renee but the head is a bit big, if they scale it down, it actually does look like her- the light angle is just not good in the pic.
Also- am I the only one that thinks the detail put into that kallisto is amazing? They really did a stellar job

Renee is gorgeous in real life, I dunno how they made her look so derpy.
And yeah, Kofi looks like he's about to go into a coke rage. I don't know why they decided to go with that scan. Yeah, it looks LIKE him, but it doesn't exactly go with New Day's "Power of POSITIVITY" gimmick.
But they do figures of Mr. Smile time John Cena making frowny angry poopy faces....so Mattel pretty much just does whatever they want.

Seriously, Mattel? Koffi is like "Who you trying to get crazy with essay, Don't you know I'm Loco".

Just what new day attire is kofi wearing? Is that supposed to be the purple and white one? I dont remember them wearing this blue and white scheme...? Also, what a terrible face scan.

I'm wondering if Renee would look better with her hair moved or different hair altogether.

The Kofi scan looks ridiculous but I'll reserve judgement until I see it in person. Kalisto looks way too tall, lean and cut, but I'll get him any way since it's his first time in the line. His elite should come with a working trampoline.

His elite should come with a working trampoline. No way he's too tall. His base is the basic Mysterio that came in the pack with RVD.

Orton and Rollins turned out pretty good. If I were to buy any from this series, I would get those two.
Harper, Lesnar and Cena don't do anything for me, so those are definite passes.
I'll probably wait on buying a Kalisto figure until I see how he stacks up next to other Basics/Elites.
I have no positive thoughts about Kofi. I feel legitimately sorry for the kid whose parents buy them this toy.
As for Renee, it's not the expression that bothers me so much as it is the balled up right fist. That to me just doesn't make any sense and needs corrected right away.
