It seems that pretty much every Mattel women's Elite figure since Elite 72 are not only shorter, but also have dainty parts when compared to all of the other Mattel women's figures (previous Elites and all basics). Elite Natalya goes up to Elite EC3's belly button. Elite Bianca goes up to the Peyton Royce's chest. Basic Zelina Vega is taller than most of the recent Elites. I just wish they would scale with each other again. They just seem so much smaller than they used to. Am I the only one that feels this way?

It’s really weird. |

The old style (pre Elite 72) figures really werent scaled at all. They were all essentially the same exact parts with just different paint deco on them. The scaling issue was brought up when Elite 72 Becky came out. Steve was asked why she was shorter than other figures (ex: Elite 53 Alexa Bliss) and he gave the response of "Is Becky too short or was Bliss too tall?" leading most to believe that they were correcting the heights & scales of the womens figures....However Elite 74 Natalya came out and was even shorter than what it should have been and then once Elite 82 Bliss came out the scaling was exactly the same as Elite 53 because it was a simple rehash of the same parts used before.
Ultimately it comes down to if you collect womens division figures, take it or leave it cause Mattel clearly doesnt care enough to do them right.

Mattel: They are lucky to get women in the line!
Most Wrestling Figure Collectors: LOL collecting women? That's odd!
Me: I know she hasn't been relative in 30 years, but can I get a Missy Hyatt?
Mattel: Yea, February 30th
Me: You should work on your material.

If they are accurate...  . The first basic bayley is taller than the NXT line one. Which was a bit odd!, which one is correct height! |

I think they attempted to adjust the heights to be more to scale in recent series but have not accomplished that.

The others look more correct. She wore tall boots until HiaC last year. I fixed the NXT one by swapping Dana brookes first basics boots. |

Hopefully, they can make them back into scale with the basics again.
