What has he done in the last few years to warrant him getting an elite? Yeah he’s sorta been used recently but typically he’s barely on TV and jobbing whenever he does get on Raw or Smackdown.

I expect Truth to be in an Elite set about 5 months from now, they've probably already planned his next release from his recent US Title run.

If they don’t go back to the e15 Ziggler body parts I will never buy another Elite Ziggler.

R-Truth is due for a new figure in both elite and basic. The last R-Truth figure I remember was basic 59

I don't think I own a truth figure and it's crazy since I've always been a fan
Which ones are considered the best ones? I really need to add one to my collection

To be fair, Aiden English and Tye Dillinger both got Elites and they haven't really done much either. I do think every wrestler should get an updated figure from time to time. Truth has been with the company for years now and his look, arguably is different from his last figure that I think an Elite of his most recent and entertaining run as United States Champion is justified. #ItsMy2Cents |

Tye was a NXT guy and we all know Bill favors them. I don’t have a problem with Truth getting a new elite but I can see the argument on why he hasn’t had one. Even now after winning the mix match, getting beat up by Nia, and having the US belt for a couple weeks, we know that him being featured on TV likely won’t last long. Mattel starts making a figure now and when it comes out in about a year he’s been off TV for months and nobody is buying it. |

I think it's very hard to do but it would be great if they could notify Mattel about who's being a feature on TV because I hardly doubt there's 0 planning but plans change stuff happens so it's very hard to do. I mean it's nice that they're doing it for NXT figures, like when Samoa Joe hit stores he just debuted or a month away from debuting so you could already go and get a Samoa Joe figure, same as Aliestar Black. That's the trouble it's like Slater he gets another figure but by that time he hasn't been on TV even though everyone likes Slater. |

Truth is our generations Mr.Perfect. I take it you are only familiar with the tail end of Curt's WCW run. |

Main event NXT guys and main roster debut guys you know there is going to be a window where they’re gonna be featured until they’re fizzled out and given up on. Guys that have been around a while that you know will never rise above their current role other than a brief run intermittently are harder to figure out and a bigger risk. Ryder and Hawkins may be the exception because (a) they buddied up with Bill and (b) they’re big self promoters who have built a loyal fan base that will buy their merch regardless of their position on the card and/or TV. |

I’ve seen them both as the go-to work horse that can put anyone over and have an amazing match. The crowd gets behind them as faces or against them as heels. Both are solid mid card guys that have been in the main event yet never holding a World Title in WWE. They both have had funny and serious gimmicks. |

Since they always give Truth Cena's original torso, and now since Truth wears shorts, they could just use the new Cena mold to update Truth...   This just makes me want a new carmella with the new hair. |

I guess I can see where you're coming from but I still think it's a major stretch. You're the first person I've ever heard use "work horse" to describe R-Truth and I can't think of any classic R-Truth matches over the past 19 years besides anything he did with Cena (singles PPV match and tag match at Survivor Series). |

They could just repaint John Cena's legs for his new attire. They could just repaint an entire cena at this point |

R-Truth, no thanks for me as an Elite.
I could go for a Carmella in an Elite one piece attire though.

I like the guy. I'd buy one for sure. He hasn't had a basic in a long damn time either but with the ugly new arms and reduced deco I would pass on that anyway.
