Not the angle, he’s side eyed on the one sculpt, but there’s no way of telling what his eyes are like MIB. So I will take side eyes over misaligned.

Unpopular opinion but the RSC Bret and DM Razor hold up well against their ultimate counterparts. In fact I think I prefer the elites for display.

Bret does especially because it doesn’t have the drop down hips it does hold it’s own agains the the UE but I do like the UE slightly more. The UE has better heads and jacket design. As for Razor because of the arms they use on all Hall/Razor’s Elite figures (Minus the RSC Hall) his Elites aren’t big enough. So to me the UE Razor gets the slight edge. Although while they look bigger than his elites arms the UE arms should be larger as well. I just wish all his Elites used the RSC Hall’s limbs.

RSC Bret better than UE version is not a unpopular opinion. I mean the ultimate is kind of superior as a figure standpoint. Better jacket Double jointed elbows Better headscans Extra articulation It's an unpopular opinion because it's shared amongst people who are holding onto the rse value, that may or may not decrease.

While I do like the UE better than the RSC figure more articulation doesn’t mean better. I personally hate the drop down hips because the design makes the figures more fragile. It went from one sturdy stem to now having at least 3 smaller pieces to form the hip stems. And the toe articulation I can take or leave. I never pose a figure where it was needed to balance the figure.

Better Jacket ? It's a repaint of the first UE, any details is closely related to the first jacket. The Elite Jacket is 100% better and accurate.

I get it, the extra articulation can be considered not being better for some, but being able to do more is objectively better in the end. If someone has the rse Bret moc, it'll retain value for sure, but loose vs loose, most people will pick the ultimate, including myself. I feel this Bret is an upgrade of the initial ultimate, (because I'm a sucker for butterfly joints and the playability it offers) I agree on toe articulation, I don't really care for or see the need, and I haven't had a drop down hip issues on any figures yet other than power rangers, but can deny that extra options is better than no options imo.

It's better because I can put his arms up and pose, instead of being forced to keep his arms by his side. It also takes seconds compared to minutes to get on/off

People trying to say that Elite is better than ultimate is laughable.

I didn't know there were two chases. That's pretty cool.

The legs on the headshrinkers could be bigger/thicker. I’ll probably still get them though

I added the HeadShrinkers to my Tag Tea/Factions/per-80’s shelf. And the chases to one of my WCW shelves. And the regular UE Razor and Target Hitman to my shelves also.
