That Diesel is pretty sweet!
Will probably skip the rest though especially now it seems The Hype Bros are probably gonna split

Couldn't have chosen a blander attire for AA if they tried. Time to buy the first one cheap then. I know its an actual attire they wore but it just looks dreadfully plain. Yawn. Couldn't have used the hof5 Diesel head? Nice coloured tattoos though. HBK looks ok but already got the RR basic. Still hoping for a basic version of RSC as I've got the head and jacket saved somewhere. Hype bros truly look great and are the stars of this set. but I'm not a fan of Mojo. Pass on the whole set. Just like BP47  |

That Diesel head is pure trash. I doubt anyone is happy they found a way to reuse it.

Is the Rhyno and Heath Slater 2 pack cancelled for real or is it just speculation since there's no photo available yet?

Entire series is a pass most likely.
Would get Shawn/Diesel if I find it cheap.

Imo Hype Bros. are damn good, AA looks weak, I hope people buy them, and HBK/Diesel are a bit of a bummer/missed opportunity, but I like that Shawn head better than the original and I'm glad they made new Diesel legs, I hope they painted the heart on HBK's glove this time.

I wish Diesel had an all black attire. I can't believe it's been 7 and a half years and we haven't gotten an all black Diesel.
It's a decent 2-pack, but for those of us with Elite 16, it's just a less articulated double.
I'll be passing on the 2-pack, due to this.
Also, no elblow pad for Diesel, and Mattel ONCE AGAIN refused to use the glove hand for Diesel, instead, they just painted a regular hand black
And that Chad Gable scan with the molded mustache being unpainted is pretty funny, but funny in a it's really not funny it's cheap way.
Just the Hype Bros for me.

I never had an issue with that bold Diesel head until they showed the proto for the HOF line. It isn't a great likeness but I still like the way it looks to be honest. Love the way Shawn Michaels looks with that scan, I will likely pick it up just because I skipped the RR figure because of the ugly head they used.

Again with no accessories. Yet I bet they still cost £23.99 a piece.
Sigh. Gable is missing wrist tape, Jordan needs detail on his boots and I wonder if the backs of the knee pads are blue? Bet they aren't.
With hbk, while the RSC head is better, the original mullet head is more accurate to the event it portrays. HBK/diesel pack is such a missed opportunity. Could have been something so great.
Other than Hype Bros this is some very boring, easy, coasting and plain stuff and a hell of a lot of needless oversights here. Just so disappointing all round for me personally. Not impressed but I guess its because I don't like Hype Bros.

Hype Bros look amazing, I might pick up HBK/Diesel if I see it on clearance, but yeesh that Diesel scan is terrible.

I was really hoping to see a re-visited Mattel version of the beloved Jakks Classic Superstars Dudes With Attitudes 2-pack but this is still nice.

i really hope this American Alpha set isn't the start of what Jakks ended with, plain attires and missing detail like wrist tape.

So Bill wasn't happy with the first AA BP and said he will get to work on the next and this is it? Or was he on about the elites?
