Am I the only one who’s noticed how bad ugly the skin tone is on Reys head? Looks like the Yellow Cadaver from “Return of the Living Dead.” Rey Mysterio images.app.goo.gl/kMMg5P6YE9t5a31E9

Does Dream have a shirt print on his bare chest?
Also why couldnt they just use the TrueFX on the old Roddie scan? this sculpt is a downgrade.

THEY MADE A SMALLER SOFT PLASTIC SHIRT FINALLY!
I've been begging for that, it looks so much better than the huge bulky one. I know cloth is preferable, but this is the next best thing.

I thought those were clouds on Dream's figure until I zoomed in. But what the hell were they thinking with that?

For sleeveless shirts, this will be fine tbh. The Savage molds since they switched the closing pegs to the back have been great

Wtf is wrong with Reys mouth?
By the looks of it the 2016/2017 defender protective cases should work with the new packaging.

Rey Mysterio, Roderick Strong, Buddy Murphy, & Batista are great. Not gonna get Becky Lynch or Velveteen Dream.
Strong has an odd hairline, but it does kinda get like that in matches sometimes Dream's attire is wack lmao, so it's gonna be a pass Pass on Becky because her Ultimate Edition is coming later

Let's back that "Worst Elite Of All-Time" nonsense down when this still exists: I laugh everytime I see this figure, it is so F'n hilarious lmfao

It's interesting(and by that I mean baffling) to hear Mattel talk about the expense of tooling a new part that they can only use one time and then see some of the crap they spent money on for a part that they can only use one time.

Was anyone asking for that Velveteen Dream attire? What a waste of a spot...
I'll only be getting Batista (and possibly Becky depending on what her UE looks like).

Completely agree in this case. Spending money on custom tooling for a one-off attire that not a single person asked for and nobody can even recognize is truly baffling. Plus, seeing the mostly negative reaction to the figure makes it that much worse. Was anyone asking for that Velveteen Dream attire? What a waste of a spot... Nope. Literally nobody except Bill wanted that attire. I actually thought it was too early for him to even be back in the mainline, but Bill's gonna Bill, and I assumed it would still look awesome and have the NA title as a selling point. Now I feel like the NA title is the only thing that could possibly prevent it from becoming a gigantic peg warmer and even that might not save it. Does Dream have a shirt print on his bare chest? Yeah and it looks terrible without a defined edge to give the illusion of a collar. Even if it's a prototype error and they accidentally printed the design too high up the neck, there's still no defined edge there and it will look weird.

I was very excited for this set, but man what a disappointment. I would’ve bought probably any Dream if he was in a match attire, but that is atrocious. Who would want to buy that? Crazy decision. We better get a Hollywood Dream at some point.
Roddy is okay.. but I wish they’d gone with a different attire since there aren’t matching UE elites to join him. I like his normal gear a lot more than the camo.
Murphy has an awful scan and some of his most bland attires.
Went from 3 must buys and Batista to two regretful buys for Buddy and Roddy just because I don’t know when/if we’ll ever get more elites of them. Both of them are too small, though.
This set really bums me out.

What were they thinking with Dream?! Figure fail of the year right there. Very disappointing set after two pretty good sets. Save your time RSC and mark Dream down at $6.99 in your next sale like the Berzerker because he ain’t selling!

The only thing I can possibly imagine is that Dream is gonna wear that attire the week the set debuts and clues in Bill; otherwise not so hot
A mixed bag, I’ve found the last several elite sets to be stellar so this one isn’t quite matching up but still some great stuff. I actually really dig the Batista and I think that is the best Becky so far. As others, including Murphy himself said .... the beard just looks like a pain error, it makes no sense that his beard is nearly black ..... otherwise I like the figure. I also think the Strong figure is great.

The NA title would prevent it from becoming a peg warmer, if it wasn't for the super awesome Adam Cole released one series prior with the same title. God that Dream is so bad. Am I the only one that looks at the Batista head and immediately sees Baron Corbin? A tiny bit of sculpting to make it less round and it seems pretty bang on to me.
