I would have liked to see some more First Time in the Line figures, but the stuff they did reveal looks really good. Even though a lot of repeat characters they have good attire choices so they're listening & trying to get us the stuff we want.

I haven’t been watching Raw much this year but they turned him into another generic, smiling babyface? He should have been the Scottish-terminator but more similar to Austin with the serious attitude. Him smiling like that just seems...off... He’s definitely not a smiling baby face. But I’m sure Mattel wanted to go with something other than the same grimace scan they’ve used and not do a yelling or snarling face this round either. |

Did they say when the Fan TakeOver Elites are supposed to be released? Or at least when/where I can preorder them? If possible, I’d like to preorder Rollins and Cole. Really don’t wanna have to travel long distance to hunt them down at a Walmart, and I don’t wanna pay scalper prices either.

So you haven’t seen the product in a bit and yet you say seems off? Also, Austin is incomparable, tough as nails, wresting through al those injuries and just being a bad ass. Take a chill pill bro. Yeah considering Ive seen most of Drew’s career I would say it’s off. I’ve watched on and off this year but saw most of his rumble to WM run, as well as the Orton feud and he basically did no smiling during those at all. And his Scottish-terminator gimmick could have easily transitioned in a tough-as-nails tweener. He was certainly more serious during the Orton feud, but a babyface WWE Champion is going to smile from time to time at the very least. Personally I think it’s nice to finally get a new head for Drew and I think it looks super accurate. |

Not digging '89 Warrior head for '96 Warrior. Yea, I'm hoping since this is an early proto, they will change it. If not, I may attempt to change it myself, possibly to the blonde-ish USA Warrior hair. Ultimate Maniacs Warrior would be pretty decent. The hair style is still off, but still beats the one they used. |

From the new reveals, I'll be getting maybe Hogan, Austin and I definitely want that Warrior - if it doesn't end up being too expensive. The Piper/T pack will likely be too costly. All three Fiends, E82 Balor, boneyard 'Taker and E85 Kross and Black. The wait for those two - Kross especially, is going to be a killer... Didnt they plan to included the Fiends Bray head lantern? This is really missing... Been released twice already. |

Does anyone know when the Elite 83 Edge (chase) variant will go up for pre-order?

People smile all the time, doesn’t make him a smiley babyface. |

I don’t mind a smile on the Elite McIntyre, but JESUS that body is trash. Why go back to the tiny Elite 8 torso and arms?
Piper & Mr. T 2-pack is perfection. Can’t wait to pre-order that one.

Angry, Happy, Sad, just to name a few. |

I pray he comes with a Badstreet USA shirt! when I think of Michael PS Hayes I rarely if ever picture him in trunks in his rookie days...all that figure is good for is the head and shades. I have to find a more appropriate Hayes body like George Steele with tall white boots. Cool. And I pray he comes with a Badstreet USA shirt! |

If not, I may attempt to change it myself, possibly to the blonde-ish USA Warrior hair. It's my understanding it's a new head sculpt, but it looks like the '89 hair, so maybe that's reused and just the face is new? Warrior changed his hair so much, I guess it's difficult to keep trying to match it with a new sculpt each time (though I'd be fine with that). |

Alexa's chest is still too far down her body, makes the body look weird. Happy with the reveals, but wanted to see more First Time In Line figures and pics of Ripley, Kushida & Garza Elites. But biggest disappointment is still no Lanny Poffo. Something seemed off about Bliss when I was looking the MOC pic. She just looks tall/long. I thought maybe it was the legs, but her torso looks long as well. She looks like a skeleton. |

The figures are set to hit retail in the first quarter of 2021, but idk when and if we'd be able to get these online like we were able to with the Survivor Series set. |

That really is the only thing missing from the UE, I was holding out for a more "detailed" lantern coming with the UE but now I'll have to buy another E77 or top picks for another lantern. Def should have been included considering Hogan is loaded with accessories. |

I'm really not likely that Alexa figure. It's too similar to older versions and was expecting more flair to the attire. She also seems bare bones in terms of accessories. Maybe an extra head with different expression and hair would have helped. They definitely took some budget dollars from this figure to put into some other figures in that set. She has no design on her kickpads and no green and pink on the side of her trunks. |
