Just like the Elite 77, i probably still won't get it.
For the attire, i guess the differences will be: - Praying hands on the top. - New boots with the straps/covers.
As for accessories, it'll probably come with: - Sculpted Jacket & interchangeable arms. - Lantern. - Fiend Title. - Big Fiend Mallet. Surprised no one else has mentioned this yet. - Alternate head with the tongue out. - Alternate head with the Fiend Title sculpted around the head/neck. I say that because putting a normal title around the head doesn't sit right because of the plastic, so a sculpted version would give it that realistic drape around the head/neck.

I’ll get it along with the hogan but not at all a fan of the Fiend.

Might get it. I think the Fiend Elite is HORRIBLE. Hopefully this can be better. Pretty sure though that The Fiend is almost done as a character/story so this might be the last chance to sell it to the masses.

If this Ultimate drops and has the proper tooling, deco, and accessories, then we’ll all look back on the elite and think “Man this Elite is garbage.” I’m honestly not a fan of the Elite.

Just Bray's history. OOoOoOh Spooky Bray haunts a wrestler ... and loses. How many times did we see that? Yes, The Fiend won the title but the same is true. Acts all creepy, goes after guys, and then loses. Bray has been made out to be very weak so I can't imagine them using Fiend as his go to gimmick. It'll be just crazy him. MAYBE we'll see him versus Braun but I seriously doubt it. If anything he'll make "pop up" appearances like they do with Hardy in AEW.

Bray lost to Braun. Bray can lose. The Fiend is his safe haven.

A possible Ultimate Fiend is why I haven't been getting hyped for the Elite.
I seriously doubt they'll shoehorn in Firefly Funhouse stuff besides maybe a puppet or two. Just crossing my fingers the ab joint looks decent and has a good back bend.

If this is true, I would rather have an ultimate than an elite. So I’m waiting for real confirmation, and if it’s true, I’m canceling my Elite preorder and just going to wait for the Ultimate. So i just got my shipping confirmation for my elite Fiend.... ..... Looks like i'm going to have 2 Fiends in my collection

My guess is that it’s coming with lantern, swappable arms and a plastic coat, and the bluniversal belt. Maybe the Fiend belt and a FFFH head. I doubt they do a complete Fiend/FFFH 2 in 1

I knew this was coming and called it from the beginning but I also couldn't pass on getting a Fiend figure this quickly.

I got E77, I will buy this too. I thought about getting two E77 figures, so this works out for me.

If the fiend has his universal and his custom belt it’s gonna be insane.

I think you're vastly underestimating how many people, including Mattel, don't draw a huge distinction between Elites and Ultimates from a collection standpoint. Yeah but in the case of the Fiend do you really think Mattel would basically make a more articulated version E77 Fiend with a Jacket within 6 months of each other? The fiend isn't a figure that needs multiple head sculpts. Hogan only has 2 head sculpts which means the Fiend has 3. That means they'll probably be bray unmasked head sculpts too. I think that multiple Fiend heads (Harris down, side pony tail, braids) a jacket/interchangeable arms, a lantern, updated attire, and a title belt are more likely than a 2-in-one Funhouse Bray. Now I’m not saying it’s impossible, but I don’t see it likely

I think it will be just fiend with 2 heads with different hair styles. For God sakes I want blonde hair this time. Removable jacket. And updated boot sculpt. This time please give me lips painted on lantern accessory.

That would be awesome. It would be cool to get a UE Chyna as well.
