I was just thinking of this, and was curious about some of y'alls opinions:
Defining Moments figs are essentially Elites in a fancier box. If they were Basics, would you still buy them? They come with the accessories, same as now, but the figure itself is a Basic.
My answer? Nope.

If they were about $15 (retail), maybe.

I won't buy another dm until they step their crapup as is. Last 5 have been so unappealing to me.
I have surfer sting, but didnt buy it.
Warrior, cena, nakamura not dm worthy at all.
Flair is, but i hate ric flair.
So lower that quality even more? Hell no

They tried it before. It was called Entrance Greats. Decent line.

A buddy of mine just gave it to me, not realizing its importance. But this got me thinking too. I got M$M prominently displayed in my setup, standing next to Ringmaster. Reason being, the clothes cover up the fact that its a Basic. If you didn't know it was a Basic, you likely couldn't tell by looking at it. If, say, the new DM Flair were a Basic, I would probably grab it. I'd just keep the robe on him. |

I think the current problem with the DM Line is that most of them are repaints or we've had them before, Flair, Cena, Sting (but two different attires), The Undertaker, Warrior. I'd rather spend the extra £5 on DM Nakamura than struggle to find him at retail because they normally order too much so they rarely sell out.

Maybe there aren't as many repaints but we're definetly getting the same ones over and over again So far, everyone that has a DM has 2 (counting WM3 Macho) besides Nakamura, Rock, Triple H, Hart, Razor, HBK, Steamboat, and Hogan (not counting Hollywood that was supposed to come out). |

But repeats are inevitable because there are only a certain amount of iconic wrestlers signed at any one time. I'd expect about 20 Ultimate Warriors, Randy Savages and Ric Flairs before a Sami Zayn or Titus O'Neil, for example. |

If you're not utilizing the elite articulation, then Basics are mostly fine. |

Depends on who it is.
Sting, Piper, Bret, Jericho (old school), Triple H and Flair I would buy regardless if they are basic or elite.

Only the females.
Charlotte, Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Asuka, Trish Stratus, Lita, Chyna and Sherri Martel could all easily be DMs with the potential amount of swag they could come with and I wouldn't have any problem paying $25 for them. I pay that much for their basics already!

I would still buy them, but I'd definitely prefer Elites.
