Seth is the worst. Even worst than Graves.

Another figure ruined, because they stupidly decided to give Graves a solid black beard. Also, the tattoo on his left hand is missing.

I'd love to see somebody re-paint the Corey Graves head properly. Mattel is ridiculous with their lack of any type of shading.
Mattel: "Oh, he has a 5 o'clock shadow and his hair is buzzed on the sides? EVERYTHING WILL BE PAINTED SOLID DARK BROWN!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Do their ankles move? Can't see due to the strategically positioned RSC logos.

I don't mind Corey Graves. It is very very very okay. I like the shirt on Ambrose. Otherwise I generally agree that this is the worst basic set possibly ever. I hope this is the set Walmart and Toysrus decide to order eighty-eleventy billion jillion of and clog up shelves.

I hope this is the set Walmart and Toysrus decide to order eighty-eleventy billion jillion of and clog up shelves. I feel this will actually do real well at retail. We've already been told that basics do better than elites, and this set has arguably four of the top babyfaces in the company. Us collectors may not be excited for it, but kids and parents will clear this set out.

That Graves figure is one of the worst I've seen in this line ever. Mattel really needed to make him his own torso since Corey is notorious for wearing extremely tailored, slim fitting suits. He's swimming in in his suit on this figure. This is just laziness from Mattel, yet again. Either do the figure correct or don't release it. I'd rather get another Cena repaint in the line than see a horrible debut figure pushed out.
I really wanted Graves, too. I'm still trying to put my fed together and was eyeing him for my color man. Looks like I'll have to bite the bullet and buy him anyway -- just like I plan on doing with that creepy Renee Young from awhile back, just because we probably aren't going to get another one, like ever. Just like we never got another Rosa Mendes when Mattel admitted that was garb too. Whatever lol.

wwe.com, minutes after seeing pics of this Godawful figure...
"Corey Graves has been suspended for 30 days due to violation of the WWE's wellness policy..."
"DAMN!", that figure is the new Triple H... Horrendous... Huge... and Hillarious!!

....Wow hahahahahahahahahahaha. They showed us the graphic render for that figure at SDCC 2016 and this is the final product well over a year later? How did they manage to completely botch this figure given how much time it took to put it out? Huge disappointment. The likeness is there, it just suffers from what a lot of Mattel heads do: bad paint application. Below is a proto of Graves with a lighter colour for stubble, granted it's not perfect but I bet someone in the Fix-Up thread will correct this and make the head look superb.

Yeah, the sculpt is good but the paint apps are really bad and unacceptable. The fact that it looked way better just a few months ago plays into my question of how this figure ended up being so bad at the final stage. If they had to sacrifice the lighter color beard deco hits for one of the other figures in this set who are in every other series, then they should have just waited to release Graves until they could do it the right way. I also wish his suit looked more fitted/skinny, but I looked past that a long time ago.

You can't even do Finn's arm pose right because you can't turn the upper bicep

Lets hope this was a try out set with the new arms. Hopefully Mattel doesn't do a Jakks and listens to us. When we say we don't like the new arm swivel. Sure it might look better and the human arm don't bend that way. But why fix something if it's not broken.
And for anyone who says it's better. Post me a 2 pic of these figures doing a good posing sleeper hold or head lock. And one with Corey graves with the mic in hand and actually near enough to his mouth like it should be ?. Then I'll accept it's better
