Passing on this entire set
Cena - no cloth shirt? First E40, then DM, now this one. He's your biggest star. Needs a cloth shirt every time
Sheamus - at least the belt looks good!
Rusev - like the coat, but he will warm (if they ever hit retail!!)
Balor - cool as hell looking, but I'm not a Balor guy and I have E41, so that's good enough for me
Harlem Heat - I think I'm going to wait for the Battlepack to come out (hopefully in their purple gear). Like some others said, those tops look a little off or bulky or something. I'll reserve judgement until/if I ever see them in person.

I will buy Balor. Great figure and looks good MOC.
I like the jacket of Rusev but not of his hair. The choice of colors were good.
Sheamus is an easy pass. He is smiling, ring attire said December 2015, he was heel in that time. And the hair looks horrible. Why is more to one side than the other? And his attire is black?? Wwe champion to save him but forgot.
John Cena is an easy pass too. In first is another Cena, and he got that acessory? Really really a poor choice.
Harlem Heat look good but I don't have interest in buy those guys.
Weak set. I hope elite 47 will be much better.

I was originally only going to get Sheamus and Bàlor but now Rusev is a must for me. Best figure in the set if you ask me. I can easily pass on Harlem Heat and I don't really want Cena (I hate it when he has Elites without shirts). Bàlor is a decent figure. I feel mixed with Sheamus, I thought we would get more than one belt, like the briefcase, 5:15 shirt (cloth so prints only on front) or one of his other shirts. That belt has came with 2 figures in the last series so I don't think it's necessary especially if there's only one accessory. What is up with mohawk at the front, I've never had an Elite Sheamus I've always got his basics but I'll get this Elite. It's a good set but I never really watched Harlem Heat as I watched WWE around 03 onwards. Solid set though, no weak links, even Cena is pretty good. Worth the wait for pictures especially with that brilliant Rusev figure.

I am disappointed with the Sheamus figure. Expected much better.

ugh I was hoping they would have had unique upper sculpts for harlem heat. now we have a totally separate piece for the singlet. its suppose to look like one piece now it looks like 2 smh. is rusevs hair accurate? wasn't his hair even longer than his 1st elite at that point?
everything is pretty decent but nothing stands out as great. I have cut down A LOT with the elite line and completely stopped with basics. been concentrating on higher end stuff and stuff like NECA.. idk how it all works but why can NECA put out figures that havemostly all unique sculpts, multiple accessories, interchangeable heads and parts for $20-$25 yet an elite cena cant come with a cloth shirt smh

I'm not buying any figure from this set. I'm actually kind of happy. This is going to save me a lot of money. It's good to have a throw away set every now and again, the bad news is that this might kill retail.
Kids aren't going to give a crap about Harlem Heat.
Sheamus and Rusev figures are retail death figures they warm so hard.
Finn Balor isn't that much different from Elite 41 which was not that long ago and can still be found.
Cena is Cena, but no shirt sucks and will harm the figures ability to sell.
This is going to kill a lot of people's stores for a long time. Maybe as bad as Elite 36, which honestly was a much better set that this this.

That's why I say I'd like sister Sherri first. I wouldn't complain if it was sensational Sherri, queen Sherri or scary Sherri though |

Demon Bálor's are nice, but is it too much to ask for an elite none-Demon Finn? They shouldn't be hard to make, granted I could make a custom or buy one but I'd rather have an official product. They're releasing basic Finn's like they're hot cakes but basics can only do so much.

I don't like that the diorama says elite series #46.
How many people would actually display them as a set and not some other arrangement?

I hope those Harlem Heat tops are removeable. Especially Booker's. It's nice that Sheamus comes with the belt. I can get his new look AND the new title without having to get another Reigns or Rollins.

Cena is a joke. No Tshirt? I don't even like cena but I'm gonna say there's nothing wrong with this figure and how could you expect a shirt when it has a big barbell and the diorama stand and a hat and dog tags? If this thing had a shirt too then it would surpass the dm cena and neither would make sense at their price point. |

I used to love playing with my old OSFT WCW Harlem Heat figures, so it's a bit surreal for me to see them as Elite figures some 20+ years later.
It goes without saying then that those two are my favorites, but the rest of Elite 46 looks to be a solid set of updated figures. I genuinely want another Balor, Rusev, and Sheamus after seeing them MIB, and that's about all I can ask for out of Mattel.
I don't know what I was expecting out of Cena, but I think it's a shame that collectors should be forced to buy another lackluster repaint in order to complete the backdrop. Give him a new expression. Paint his belt white like it was at WrestleMania. Throw in a commemorative WrestleMania 32 chair or something, but at least make it seem like you give a damn.
