I received my pre-orders today of elite 50. I'm not one to complain about figures but, this Rhyno is the worst Elite ever. Who ever thought to put Typhoon's arms and shoulders on this figure truly messed up. It looks very silly and misplaced in this line. Also the tag title feels like the rubber is much cheaper than used in other titles.

Its the Big E body with Typhoon arms. It's pretty bad. Here's some comparisons.

It's so bad it's funny.
Looks like a awful custom.

I'm pretty sure it's a new torso for Rhyno. Someone make a better version and swap out the shoulders and arms.

Looks like Mr Tickle on roids. Embarrassing really that it got released. But why should Mattel care when everyone says "he looks stupid but I'll buy him anyway".

I don't have this one yet.
As for the belt, they've used flimsy style plastic for those before, particularly the recent releases of the classic tag straps. The Hart Foundstions belts are like this. 123 Kid's is the flimsiest. Personally, I prefer this because it feels more realistic to me.

Poor Rhyno constantly gets bizarrely proportioned figures. The Jakks figure's R3 body was good, but the head was super tiny. Then they remedied it for his ECW RA figure, but it has a balloon head and that laughable ripped cruiserweight tanktop body. Honestly, his original ECW OSFTM figure is probably his most well-rounded of the bunch.
I don't think the Mattel effort is that bad, but I definitely feel like they are capable of so much better.

Finishing up on the switch. Gave him Triple H shoulders and arms. Still working on getting the torso firmly back together. It split like a dream. Never did an easier torso crack.
Anyway the figure looks great so far. May end up giving him Rusev biceps.

This may be the worst Mattel I've seen in my 7 years of buying

This is a real bummer and total fail in creative decisions. I'm a big Rhino fan too. Sad face.
