There's a distinct lack of Hogan, for which I am greatly disappointed.

Was initially hoping Muraco was Morales, but still a cool reveal.

I just hope none of these get lost in release limbo. They are looking Awwweeesssooome
(I'm kind of hoping for an Elite Jaxson Ryker in the future. I need to add more to my TNA faction)

Isn't there a Jinder Mahal in the works? I know his name was a placeholder for this year's Summerslam line but I thought one was finally coming in the Elite line. And coreythehitman I remember there was talk of an early Big Show coming in Walmart's next Fan Central wave. Someone can correct me if I am wrong. Jinder's spot went to Elite 67 Rey Mysterio so who knows what, if anything, will come of it. As for Big Show, it was rumored to be a Fan Central Elite at one time. Are they actually releasing the neon entrance? It's probably just for show at Axxess. According to plasticaddict on Instagram, Liv is in, Miz is out and there is an unnamed sixth male in E69. Anyone else corroborate this? I have my doubts. Why show Miz with the rest of Elite 69 if he's not going to be included in that set? It looks ready to go. |

I will say I almost completely lucked out. Since Mattel introduced chase figures and main series store exclusives (I have no idea what you'd call the Pete Dunne and Sherri figures)I haven't needed any of them. Even with the latest, I don't need any except now for Sonya. So while I've looked for chase and main series store exclusiv for friends,I've never had to find more than one. Now, looks like I may have to find two. It was a good run. lol

I don't really buy Basics but...how the hell is there not a low boot mold for guys like Goldberg or Austin yet?
I was initially disappointed to see we were getting another Basic Razor Ramon instead of an Elite but now I'm glad they didn't waste an Elite Razor with that attire. I'm hoping we get an Elite Razor in red, green, teal or black at some point.
GORILLA MONSOON! Beyond excited to see him, he looks great!
Black and green AJ looks good.

Much better than I expected. Am I the only one annoyed that the logo on Harts top is way too large on the basic?
Wish they would have gone with literally any other attire for Razor. Any other attire would look ok as a basic, but they picked the one that needs more deco.

Wow, those elites are absolutely amazing. It's crazy to see how far Mattel has come in quality. Even the repaints are absolutely sick. I have two of that exactly same Summerslam Seth Rollins and I'm like, "Jesus. I might as well just throw them in the trash." Just gorgeous. The new Shield Seth looks beautiful. Can't wait to get him and a new Shield Roman. My only gripe is that elite Rock is the exact same figure we got in the Legends series (hands and head aside), and other than a different color on the trunks, the same one we got with the previous Elite series Rock. I've been waiting for a 1998 elite Rock for YEARS. Especially since the Defining Moments one has been impossible to find at a reasonable price for over 5 years. Give me a 1998 long sideburns Rock! And still no 2000 Triple H. After ABA Undertaker, Triple H will be the only No Mercy-era main eventer we don't have.
Those teeny gripes aside, every elite they showed is a must-have for me. The Ultimate Deletion looks amazing. I hope I can find that Heenan-Monsoon 2-pack because I still have no 80's announce team. 99-00 Big Show is amazing. I forgot how bad I wanted him. JBL in cargo shorts looks great. All the updated NXT figures look amazing and I hope they're not Target exclusives so I can actually find them because Lord knows Target's distribution is the drizzling shits.
Awesome job, Bill. Awesome choices. Can't wait to give you more money.

2006 Jeff Hardy is a nice surprise and hopefully it means we get another oval Intercontinental title
Mattel has numbed me to this store exclusive bs. I never found Dunne and odds are good for not finding Sherri either so 🤷🏻♀️ I’ve got more important things happening in my life than chasing down plastic statues

Relax, at least it was a basic and not an elite. Hope his next elite is hHh. So relaxed, brah. Just can't believe they continue to forego his most popular and desired look. Yah bruh, I can't believe it either. Same could be said about 98 Taker... Which I wouldn't mind in the Ultimate Elite line. |
