I just always pictured Backlund as a smiling guy This seems to be from his 94/95 heel run. At that time he was always frowning or looking angry. Or had a strange wide-eyed look.

Yes, the skin tone is a bit too light. Never noticed before. Besides that and Pumpkin Head, it was a nice haul. Especially like the Triple H swap.

I find the new Basic legs to be extremely stiff, almost unplayable. There is no way some little kid can bend them. Probably Mattel's master plan to get us ready for when they remove that joint all together

That Demogorgon dude is so cool. Reminds me of The Used - Lies For The Liars album cover. No idea why...

I find that those Singh Bros/Bollywood Boyz figs look nothing like the actual dudes. Period

Mandy’s scan is great just the bobble head ruins it

Probably Mattel's master plan to get us ready for when they remove that joint all together this is 100% true, the basics are almost impossible to move now, at first I just hated the way new basics looked, but now the way they bend and move has made it even worse. Another thing I hate about basics is the way the new boots are just a solid piece, a lot of them don't stand up properly. My new basic Bo continually falls down, very annoying.

ordered these on Thursday when they came in stock, got them today! Basic 93 Jinder MahalI don't know if you can tell from pictures, but I almost had a panic attack when I first got the figure out of the box, because the skin tones for this and the elite are way off to the naked eye! The elite head looks 10x worse on the basic body, but thankfully the basic head on the elite body looks okay, it serves its purpose. Shame he can no longer wear his headdress because of the hair but still looks okay. Entrance Greats Eliasfarewell to Entrance Greats, the most useless sub line Mattel made if you ask me, I didn't care for the stupid bases in 2010, and I don't care 9 years later. I will say this one is actually funny, it has the JoJo introduction, but still completely useless. The figure itself is great, love the stool accessory, I know its strange to say but its useful, the scarf & guitar are nicer this time around, still wish he had a cut off shirt or something to truly capture his look. Elite 65 RusevFinally an updated Rusev, the key is a really random accessory, I guess Bill really liked that segment... glad they finally fixed his trunks. Aiden EnglishAbout time he gets an elite, it came out really nice, I wish the chase wasn't the one with designs on his tights, I wanted that one more, but there is no way I'm buying two Aiden elites, so this will have to suffice. RUSEV DAYYYYY!!Nia JaxI can't stand Nia, but this figure came out really nice, I will keep the dreadlocks head on since it's different than the other basic Nia's I have already. The gear came out nice, just hard to get too excited for a Nia Jax figure for me. Roman ReignsNot much to say about another Roman elite, the scan looks good, I would have given him a FIST for his Superman Punch instead of the SHAKA BRAH, just would have made so much more sense. Eric Youngmight be the figure of the set, very cool for EY to have his first WWE figure, and Bill went out of his way to make all the Sanity members look great (except Nikki's scan), having this makes me really excited to get Dain, Wolfe & Nikki. Love the attention to detail, especially the boots. Ronda RouseyI passed on basic 90 which for me was shocking and difficult, but I hated that it was in street gear. I know this one is as well, but I'd rather have this than the basic. I think the scan is great and I really can't wait for that Ultimates in ring gear. Also got my WWE Slam Crate today, the Slam Stars AJ Styles is pretty cool

Man that Mahal basic is disappointing. I hope this skin color is not a sign of things to come with his figures. All the other figures though are great.

the Mahal basic head-scan is really good. The entrance Greats Elias needs the elite 28 Bray Wyatt shirt and it would have put the figure over the top. Great pick-ups will probably order some of elite 65, have other bills to pay first.

That elite mahal has some weird arms. The skin looks too light on the sign brothers. I have been complaining about this as well, but they have yet to correct Roman’s skintone. He should be a lighter complexion, either seth’s skintone or batista’s.

I honestly don't remember the segment that well, but I want to say late 2017, think it's around the same time Aiden started his association with him... and I kind of agree, besides the short hair and corrected trunks, I don't like the scan much either.
