I’m a huge Mick Foley mark, and I just recently received the Dude Love figure. I also have the RSC Cactus Jack and a basic Mankind (white shirt). I’m looking to upgrade my Mankind to an Elite, which one do you guys prefer?

Mankind was great in brown, but iconic on white. The cell, title wins, this is your life. All his biggest moments were in white.

I’m looking to upgrade my Mankind to an Elite, which one do you guys prefer? I'm also a big Foley mark dude. I love all his elites but my favourite has to be Elite Summerslam. I went with this as I think it has the best accessories wwe belt, removable mask and also a removable socko. I own both but as this was my favourite of Mick's personas it gets my vote plus I missed out on original E17 lol.

I associate his white shirt with one of the more overrated matches in wrestling history and his brown attire with one of the more underrated matches in wrestling history. Elite 51.

Amazon Exclusive without the brown lip,
but out of your two choices go with the white shirt. It's iconic and it has the cool WWE logos on the tie....
You can't go wrong with MR. SOCKO!!

The Amazon one is definitely the better of the original brown Mankinds (he has unique boots), but Elite 51 is no slouch, either. It's a fantastic figure, and the molded mask (and hair, namely) is so much better than the removable one seen on his white-shirted figures. It kinda comes down to the era you prefer. E51 and SummerSlam are both very good depictions of two very different versions of Mankind. I think the white-shirted Foley is the one associated with the more memorable moments he had as Mankind.
If you already have his basic in the white attire, might as well get the Elite original brown Mankind.

SummerSlam elite for sure. E51 is a pretty Garbo rerelese. But if you really want the brown attire mankind I suggest you instead go for the Amazon exclusive one. As that one is actually painted correctly, and has unique boots.

If it’s possible for you, get both. Each represents completely different time periods for the character. Other than the brown lips on E51, they are both excellent figures.

Where's E17? A much better, more general (non match specific) representation of shirt-and-tie Mankind. When Mankind was in his main event days, Foley was my favorite at the time. Big childhood memories and love for him then. Though now that I'm older, E51 is a great representation of one of the most unique wrestling characters at the time, and maybe ever.
I really have to order E51. Also, I'd really love a WCW era Cactus at some point, with the tattered tank top shirt and leopard print. Would be a beauty.

I always preferred his brown attire over the white attire so my vote goes to brown.

I own both. But if I could only pick 1, Summerslam Elite. I think it’s a better looking.

Amazon mankind or e17 is the better question. I have both but I prefer him in brown.
