That Bobby scan is so much better than the entrance greats

Bobby Roode's new head scan and the Alexa Bliss figure are the only good things about this set. That Rollins is almost identical to the Series 77 one.  That AJ Styles Basic came out last year, also.  And the Cena is just like any other....and it's only a 5 figure set. Very weak showing by Mattel on this Series. Basics are really hitting rock bottom. |

The new arms just really make me despise Basic figures now.

Seeing this set has me happy that I mainly stopped buying basics. Jeeze....

That Alexa's my favorite scan of her's so far, I'm really liking all the basic women they've put out recently, it's one place where I like the new sturdier arms. Bobby looks good too, but I feel like I'm looking at ADR figure. I like that you can extend her arm enough so she can do her dislocated gimmick.  Ouch  |

The new head sculpts look really good and the silver in Rollins attire looks so much better than the gray version.

The Alexa looks pretty good. I hate Basics but I might pick her up unless that possible Elite figure with the same headsculpt comes out.

I don’t know if it’s the articulation change, the outfits, possibly both but the Basics are looking mighty cheap now. They remind me of when Monster High dolls started making dolls without elbow, wrist and knee joints lol. I think we’d all be fine if Basics would have come like this from the start. Now they reminiscent of the TTL line from Jakks.
On a side note, I’ll pick up Alexa. I just wish the hair wasn’t so difficult lol. Ponytails easily come off but with some super glue they are good.

The Basics lineups have become really repetitive, and the lesser articulation is lame. It's like they want the Basic line to die, or they're just being cheap and lazy.
I will get Alexa, for sure, and maybe Roode, but they have been saving me money lately!

I ordered this Roode to put the head on the EG. Hopefully it works out and looks good.

way to ruin a perfectly good Rollins figure by giving him the stupid t-shirt torso

Pretty sure that AJ was a replacement for a canceled Enzo. So they probably had no time to make him different.

The headscan for Rollins makes him look too much like Chris Kanyon ... hmm mental note, possible figure head to use for a custom Mortis lol

Love how Mattel continues to make Booby “no neck” Roode figures. Seriously, the guy does have a neck.

I'm getting Roode. Was going to get the target one, but none of the targets near me has had him. But this one looks awesome, especially with the white boots.

Wish people would stop whining about the new arms. They now look how an arm is supposed to look - no needless bicep cut, uglying up the figures, or breaking up tattoos. Tbh, basic arms should've always looked like this.
