yeah true could be ali I would like to see more 205 guys as the store exclusives even tho they would be a pain to find Do u know if there's any other guys we saw at SDCC that have still to be placed in a lineup? I think liv morgan could be E68 and Ruby Walgreens. no think that’s it all the renders we saw think have be placed in line ups and we could get elites of 205 guys in the store exclusives unless there’s one 205 guy in fan central series 3 with the debut big show cause we still don’t know the rest of that series |

They have the roster for it. Was there rumor of debut big show? As paul wight? |

I wonder if the other fan central elites in Series 3 will be current or flashbacks interesting |

Use the Top Talents one. Not an EXACT match, but it’s somewhat close!  Thanks man. They are really quite similar but different at the same time so we need both. Lol right? It’s like they’re generally close, but with enough difference differences to be noticeably wrong. Thinking I’m putting the head, title, hands, and arms from E66 on the Top Talents AJ for my “ultimate” AJ. Speaking of ultimate, I hope the coming UE line is successful enough for us to eventually get an AJ. I don't think anyone has pointed this out yet, but with the amount of details on these figures and the amount of accessories, I think the budget for these figures must have increased. I remember when I met bill at ringside fest two years ago and asked him if the P1 logo would ever be included on the inside of AJ Styles glove. He said something to the effect of The Deco costs would be too high to fit in a budget. If that's true, to include the inserts on his gloves plus a full accessories for the Harper and Rowan figures plus variance plus all the details on those figures oh, it has to mean the budget has increased. Seems like the budget has gone up, but I’d also say they’ve had to improve to justify the $20-$30 price tag. The mass market $20 figure market quality has REALLY improved over the past few years and the work that Hasbro has done has really made offerings from Mattel look outlet at times. Glad to see Mattel really kick it into gear with the new additions. |

That AJ Styles is a thing of beauty in package.
Also, even though that attire is incredibly wack and rarely used in the late stage of his career...that Kurt Angle is pretty slick.

The budget has probably gone up in other places because the new face printing is cheaper (according to Bill). So we're getting lil things that would have been missed before. And if that's the case, I think it's great because the face printing has really improved as of late.

What's the backstory of the bludgeon brothers? They were the Wyatt family , then hid in the woods for a few years and came across some massive sledgehammers and new gear and came back and  ed everyone up. Then Rowan got injured again and there went that. Also, I hate that I love the Angle as much as I do |

I wonder if the other fan central elites in Series 3 will be current or flashbacks interesting They're keeping us waiting for a 99' big show along with RR00 HHH. I only buy elites too unless it's a basic for headswap. Hope we get an elite Buddy soon. And that big show attire sucks. Why make a tag team taker with no intention of making show. Oh well at least we getting awesome NXT guys. |

The BB look incredible with all their gear on. I bet those figures are heavy as hell in the boxes with all their accessories. They have all kinds of new parts on top of that...I definitely expect a repaint of these later this year since so much budget was spent on them. They did a great job.
AJ at that angle looks fantastic MOC (and his likeness is awesome in the new much needed scan!), but when you see how the shirt actually fits...Mattel, if you must use the plastic shirts, redesign them to fit better like Seth Rollins' does. This old bulky mold was never good. On the plus side, the alt hands are very cool! And I am so happy they got around to getting a longer-haired version of him out finally. Looks great.
Owens' likeness is awesome, and as a bonus they fixed his arms. Shame that AJ got the plastic shirt and they went with the dumb 'yep' shirt for Owens, though. I think even a normal chair would've been better.
Nikki's good. I love that they made a unique leg mold for her. Good accessories, too.
I'm conflicted on Angle, because they did a great job on him with all the detail, but they made a new mold for this one-off attire that he wore a shirt over at the actual event itself!? Again, they did a great job on this figure, but I'm worried that we're gonna be stuck with that shredded Ryback torso for Kurt. You could get more mileage out of that and use it for other singlet guys, too.
Anyway, not a bad set. BB are the stars of the show for me. I love how these turned out.

How good will the raiders be with full entrance gear. Ciampa is 1 of my most wanted right now with the greying beard from his singles run. I liked New Orleans attire for him. Hoping Riddle and Keith Lee too. EC3 as well. Lars gear is kinda boring but would still get him. |
