Ryback seemed to have new thicker abs. The chest piece seemed the same.
Kid has a new body mould which would work well for xpac too.. but pac's been released.. Not feeling the kid's scan. I think the jaws are too chiseled.. and the attire is not my first want.

Lita actually came out very well. I wasnt a big fan of it but its probably the best looking flashback of the set. Im not a fan of the 123 Kid attire. I know he wore the attire but it was very rare. He always wore an attire that was much like his Jakks figure just in different color. The scan doenst really look like him either. He had chubby cheeks but his face looks bloated. Funk is great looking figure. I like the older scan but I'll honestly probably put the Legends 2 head on it for a more 89ish NWA Funk

Love that 123 Kid was in his blue attire but was hoping it would be the one with the hands down one leg and 123 down the other. The sculpt isn't the best but I'll judge it when I have to in hand. All and all really happy with have a 123 Kid in blue...it only took us 22 years to finally get another one! Can't wait for ringside to ship mine out!
Really happy that Funk came with the ECW title. Again the sculpt isn't jumping out at me as great but we'll see when I get it.
Wasn't gonna get Lita, as I don't collect divas but that figure is dead on! Best Lita fig ever IMO. Will probably pick it up eventually now. Kinda makes me wish I didn't pass on Trish in E24 and the HOF series.

WOW...Gotta give kuddos to Mattel, they are nailing these Elites out of the park. I was hoping to cut back and save some money but this is a really nice set of figures. Love the exposed thong on Lita, thank you Bill! I was happy with my current elite Ryback but he looks sweet in that new attire, excellent job so Ill buy this new one as well. Balor, Funk and 123 Kid all amazing as well as Ambrose...heck it looks like my wallet is going to be hurting again.
Mattel you are doing an excellent job with these elites...keep it up!

This Dean reminds me of the other Dean (Malenko). If they can't paint the beard right just get rid of it. I am sure the scan will look 5x 5x 5x 5x 5x better. Funk looks good except for the face.

I haven't bought a Mattel figure since the early Legends assortments, and I don't know that I've ever even made a post in this Mattel section, but I'll have to pick up the Lita and Funk figure (and maybe Kid, too). Great likenesses, especially Lita. In fact, the whole line looks pretty damn good.

Lita and Ryback look amazing!
I can see what they were going for with Dean, but the headscan did not turn out well.

wait has Ryback always had "big guy" written on the heels of his boots? No, I don't think he has, but he definitely did have those words airbrushed on to the boots he wore at WrestleMania 31: Elite 41 Ryback doesn't nearly have that same airbrushed quality to it, but I can appreciate Mattel's effort all the same.

I most definitely will be grabbing two Balors. My biggest gripe is that tiny torso ??but the fig is so beautiful that I think I can get past it with time ha ha. After looking at the close up pics of the scan, Lita looks spot on to me and is a must have. Loving the shirts, and will be throwing the Women's strap on her. Should've been included. Terry Funk! Yes, finally get the attire that we should've had all along and most definitely buying. Gonna throw some knee pads on him and I think he will be perfect. Love that he comes with ECW strap, and it looks different (bigger) than the one that came with Punk. Could be wrong but digging it. Not a fan of Ryback at all but I dig the bigger torso and might get just to add to the collection because he has old school Denver Bronco colors ? 1-2-3 Kid man, they botched the scan in my opinion but have to get for sure to complete the clique. Would've loved a bag of money as an accessory or two tag belts instead of one but eh oh well. Dean Ambrose wow. They cannot give him a decent scan ever. Elite 36 is still my favorite scan and depending on how E41 looks with that beard taken off I might just get a basic with that E36 scan to swap out with. Love the accessories just wish they included the cop jacket.

After seeing that Kid has a new torso, I may get him now. I'm just not feeling that headscan. Hopefully it will look better in the final product. I love the new torso on Kid, but I wish they used could've used it on E33 Pac.

I have a "Pre-Order 2" on Finn. Ordered him a week ago. I can't wait for him to arrive!
I absolutely love the 123 Kid figure with the classic Tag Belt. I'm seriously considering ordering him now too.
Terry Funk was the other figure that interested me. The figure looks great. The championship belt feels a little odd though since he never wore that version of the belt.

These look great! Sorry if this has been mentioned already but Kid's scan reminds me of the jakks scan. I thought 123 kid was smiling most of the time before joining m$m.

Ryback's love handles bug me. They needed to just sculpt a singlet over the Brock torso instead of cheating out and trying to sculpt new abs for a chest mold that wasn't designed for them.
Wish they had made that torso for X-pac first. Hopefully we'll get another chance at him on this new body. Or at least a Syxx.
