It's a great figure. the SummerSlam figure is the only Elite I need as well. Add that to the NXT figure figure with the ring and they are the only two Balor figures I still need.

Love this figure, I have to wait for Storm Hogan to be in stock, cause I have this and SS Demon on order (along with DM Savage, e50 Cena, E51 Hall/AJ). It's killing me waiting.
Congrats bro.

Great figure man. I never understood the hate for this figure especially when a non-Demon paint Elite Finn is essential. Releasing it as an exclusive was a good move whilst saving the Demon attires for the main Elite line.

Releasing it as an exclusive was a good move whilst saving the Demon attires for the main Elite line. The hate come from it being an exclusive with a $27 price point plus shipping... costing more than a DM with minimal effort to justify the price. However, these days are all about branding yourself and Balor is a license to print money. By the way, I purchased 2 of these figures because I wanted this exclusive. Setting aside it's cost, it's great to have in my collection.

I hope they release a mass retail non-Demon Finn Balor at some point.

Did you ever get the Kmart tshirt one? Speaking of that figure... IDK why but literally love it. Top 10 basic of all time for me.

So the RSC elite is the same as the BP with Samoa Joe... I'm not getting the BP because i have the RSC version even though I collect "all" Balors. Same thing with say the Legends 4 Ultimate Warrior and the new SS BP with Honky. I'm not getting the BP because I already have the elite even though I'm a Warrior completionist. What do you guys think?

What do you guys think? Well I had he BP for at least a couple months before the RSC Exclusive shipped. But even though it is the same attire I would have purchased the BP anyway.

What do you guys think? Im passing on the battlepack for the elite and have all other Finns. I only ever buy basics with an elite couterpart if they are NXT FTITL. So I have Joes basic and elite in red but so I can display the basic with the other basics. Ive got both WM12 HBK but the basic came out years ago so there was no way of knowing. Plus the basic got softgoods....AND KNEEPADS

Did you do a knee pad swap to the elite? I actually pulled the EG off my shelf and replaced it with the elite as is. I have him on his knees holding the belt as kind of a post match pose.

I still have the basic with gear displayed next to it.
