Vintage WFigs.... good f'n god people. If people didn't have opinions, there would be no internet forums...
They can't nail everything. Roddy, Buddy, Batista and Becky are great. Rey is also one of the worst Rey Elite made. A total insult just because he is a cash cow that sells zillions of figures. E69 Rey was also a liberty
That’s the point. They’re making ugly Rey’s in black and puke green gear with mismatched skin tone but everyone thinks this Dream is ugly? |

Dream is whatever. I am more concerned with the loss of soft goods. Becky is the only one. In elite 71 we got soft goods with...
1.Bella
2.Bella Variant
3.Ohno
4.Big Show
5.Adam Cole
6.Cena

This set doesn’t exactly scream the necessity of soft goods tbh, just Strong needed it |

My comment was in reference to everyone freaking out about Velveteen Dream. |

Looks like he wore it without the brown shirt underneath. You mean the shirt they made WITHOUT a collar? Seriously it looks like the shirt is crawling up his neck Lmao. I didn’t even notice that until u just said that and I looked at the figure again. |

Deco for Batista’s tats, deco for Roddy’s trunks, new mold for Murphy’s shorts, new head for Rey and deco for mask and attire, new torso mold for Dream. Plus two belts in the line. |

E71 hardy had a lot of detail plus new towel piece and 2 belts in elite71 also new heads on Show,Drew,Cole and Cena. Hopefully u are right though. Batista probably used a ton of the budget on e72. |

That Batista tatt is amazing. And Big Dave went out and got even more ink since his run in 2014 to make Bill sweat lmao, finally covered up that hideous belly button tattoo |

Batista probably used a ton of the budget on e72. Jeff Hardy’s gear was only three or four colors and covers his tattoos. Batista’s tattoos alone are like ten different colors. I’m not gonna pretend I know a lot about the costs of this stuff but Bill did say Alicia Fox’s hat in the Survivor Series set cost more than some entire figures so who knows. If there’s a noticeable lack of cloth in E73 as well then I’ll panic |

I have the first Dream figure and I don't like this one so I'm not going to get it.
Not sure where in this train of thought I'm supposed to subscribe to conspiracy theories and unfair marketing practices.
Please advise.

It's hard for me to be too overtly critical of the manner in which Mattel assembles the pieces for their figures.
Even in some of the worst case scenarios like the oft mentioned Jaff Harty torso, 20+ years of personal adoration for the Jakks BCA line still makes these little missteps so easy to look past, especially now as even today, I still come across assembly errors in that line that are new to me.

There may be a lot of soft good, but there's also nobody with a ton of deco. I see a lot of plain and red and black gear. Go back to E61 and look at each set up until 71. The average is one or two or occasionally three soft goods pieces per wave. Hell, E62 had none at all. |

So is everyone loving the new Dream attire now? Personally I don't love it but I'll likely get it now since he's actually worn it on TV!
Also WWE dot com have a slideshow on Dream's E72 and it says his "first ever" guessing the E67 wasn't too memorable either then?

Although that was literally the one time I wanted a dull belt (I prefer the WCW title to be non-VAC) |
