Devons neck is half painted Regals proportions are weird and what is with the white topped boots? And sloppy paint and glue with lex and seth. And the new elbows are stupid. And why can't we retire triple hs stupid C water bottle holding hand. Give lex two fists. Switch up the parts man. 6+ years in and the stupid shark fin arms still have to have the ugly and useless triple h water bottle holding hand? Come on. Also the second pair of glasses for dudleys don't fit on at all. At least one pair kind of clip in. I was amped for this set but I'm bummed out

New elbows made me cancel my Dudley order. Why change something this late in the game Mattel? You ed this line up with new elbow molds.

I always assumed the "Triple H water bottle hand" was shaped so they could grip another figures wrist so they can pull them in for a Jake Roberts style short clothesline or wrench the arm or something.

What's the reason for giving some figures the new arms and not others?

Other than it is a little thin for him I don't think Regal's proportions are weird. They are the same parts as his E8 which is a great figure. As for the white on top of the boots they messed up as that should be socks from what I remember.

Devon's upper arm is bigger than his head.

You ed this line up with new elbow molds. especially since it doesnt even seem to improve the elbow in any way. What's the reason for giving some figures the new arms and not others?

As for the white on top of the boots they messed up as that should be socks from what I remember. I realized the bigger head dwarfs the body this time. Also the bland coloring (it's definitely not the rich maroon regal wore) and the soft blob of unsculpted/undefined hair on the head negatively impacted my view of the figure

Easy pass on this series again. Quality control and zero fawks given by mattel. I actually look forward to more terrible elite sets so i can save my money.

My Seth came with a busted arm. I got my dudleys in today and I'm scared to even open it after this post. E45 has been a flawed set by Mattel qc

Damn dude that really sucks!!! These figs are way to expensive for crap like that. D-von is totally unacceptable and the tops of regals boots suck, total jakks move.

No its a hasbro move. It wasn't acceptable over twenty years ago for $5 let alone now for over 20.

Looks like they didn't paint any of the skin tone on the back of Devon's torso...that's really really bad.

Regal looks too skinny and looks like they missed paint on your Devon's shirt at the top near the arm. It is flesh colored.

I thought the white on Regal's boots were a one-off error, but RSC's picture also has it. I never called out MattelDesignTeam, but what is going on there? I couldn't find any pictures of a white strip on the top of the boot only tape or sock above it. Possibly the stupidest thing I have seen in this line.

All Seths are like that. They're not painted the way it's molded, they painted their own lines to reflect in real life and just used the old shirt mold.
