Is it me, or does he look to old?

Elite 67 continues the trend of great sets of Elites with plenty of new characters and great attires. WWE Elite 67Shayna BaszlerOutside of the fact that Mattel really screwed us over with the NXT Championship as opposed to the NXT WOMENS Championship, I really love this figure. Shayna wouldn't fall into the category of one of my favorites, but I think this came out really good. COME ON MATTEL, WTF!!Jeff HardyGlad this one wasn't the chase, I really like this a lot more. The Hardy hands are perfect, adds such a nice touch to the whole figure. Randy OrtonI am always shocked when I can get excited over a Randy Orton figure, the hands are great, the scan looks great, the new updated tattoos are great. My one problem is the details aren't as great on this hoodie as the previous one (they may be accurate, I just like the other 1 better). Cedric AlexanderI wish this would have come with a removable vest to really complete the look. Happy to have a Cedric in my collection. Wish Mattel gave Hacksaw the thumbs up hand they gave to Cedric. Speaking of the hands, why Mattel didn't color in the peg white on the taped hands is beyond frustrating. Rey MysterioHalloween Havoc 1997 vs. Eddie was such a great match, and Halloween Havoc in general has a soft spot in my heart since it was the very first wrestling PPV I ever watched. Love this attire, it's easily 1 of my favorites Rey ever used. I had the Jakks Deluxe Aggression for the longest time, it was one of the last Jakks figures I sold off, glad to have a Mattel version now. The scan needs to be changed ASAP for current Rey's cause this one sucks. Velveteen DreamThe figure I wanted most of the set, big fan of the Dream. The scan is great, the coat is awesome, I'm not entirely sold on the torso, maybe its the arms that are too small? With that said, just happy to have Dream in my collection now. Realized today was the 15 year anniversary of WrestleMania XX, it was the first Mania I attended live, it's sad because it's never talked about for obvious reasons, but I will always remember that night! Pretty pumped I get to go to my 4th Mania in 23 days, wooo!

the 205 live/cruiserweight are coming along nicely. Dream is looking very good will have to place an order for him soon. If they would have put silver paint on the NXT title it seems the mens and women's are almost identical. I got Cedric and Shayna today as well very solid debut figures for them.

Dream's arms are fine, but the torso is too juicy. He needs the Wade Barret torso, or the Macho Man if you want more chiseled muscle.

As much as I love the unique hands, I’d rather they come with gripping hands then fists. Besides that, I really like this set. Got them yesterday and like them all more than I expected. Orton is fantastic.

Am I the only one who thinks Dream’s torso is perfect? In real life his torso is a bit weird looking and I think the Figure captures it perfectly

The Dream is the only current superstar I really want. Looks great but I think they chose the wrong torso. I'm keeping mine MOC anyways.
WMXX was such a great wm, I have the 3 disc dvd set. You're lucky to be part of a history that's been brushed under the rug.

MDT loves giving everyone the Sheamus torso. And the one time they dont, ugh. Idk what they were thinking..giving him the same body as Ultimate Warrior or a 2010 Batista?? Dream is so lanky and lean irl. He has no chest and is very slim. I recall watching him and Aleister black in the ring. And Aleister looked bigger than dream. Dreams listed as 6'2-227lbs weights of other wrestlers that got that torso Ultimate warrior: 275lbs Batista: 290lbs HHH: 255lbs The Rock: 260lbs Booker T: 256lbs curtis axel is listed 6'3-228lbs and has the matt hardy torso

I'm convinced that Velveteen Dream, if he's not ruined (which he will be) on the main roster, will become as over as DDP was in 1997-98 in WCW.

Barring Dream, Randy Orton is the figure of the set. I'm not even a fan but that's a pickup on sight for me.

I really like that Orton has his tattoos added onto the top part of the torso.

With Mattel doing the swappable heads now, they really should've done a new Rey scan for his younger look and then did a second head with his mask torn from the match. That really would've made that figure so much better.

That really would've made that figure so much better. That's my only gripe about that Rey. It's fantastic minus the fact that the mask sculpt is inaccurate for the time period. The nose section was different from the current mask he wears. Jeff is also great, but ruined by the inaccurate torso :/

At the very least, they should've just done one new Rey scan based on that match, even if it was just scanned from an old WCW promo photo.

All the new posed hands are ridiculously huge. The v1 hands come to mind too

Well I'm an idiot, I ordered B95 Sonya Deville and Kurt Angle last Thursday, fully expected to have them by Saturday, and WOULD HAVE, had I not sent the package to my girlfriends house instead. I must have forgotten to change the address on my Ringside account from a previous order. Anyway, she got the package yesterday and took some pictures for me, unfortunately, no pics of Mandy and Sonya to truly get a glimpse of how gigantic Mandy's head is going to be in comparison to Sonya. Bought the Angle for a head swap with the Entrance Greats since that hair is green and this looks to be on point, however, as luck would have it, there appears to be some paint missing in my figures hairline, I will get a better idea when I have it in hand, but still annoying. At least it's not green though... Sonya DevilleKurt Angle

Are angle's eyes off center or is it just the photograph making it that way?

Angle looks more like Adam Pearson but Sonya Deville looks really good
