Yeah, love them. I have:
Warrior Ronda HHHx2 HBK Becky Rock Hogan Fiend Edge Macho
And I have Flair and Austin pre-ordered. I passed on Bret a bunch of times because I hate those heads, but I wish I would have grabbed him for the jacket look, especially when he was like $22 at Target. The WCW Warrior is my favorite. I would absolutely love Razor and Diesel.

I have purchased or preordered Warrior Bret Balor Triple H HBK Hogan Rock Savage Flair Austin Passed on Ronda Nakamura Becky Cena Brock Charlotte Fiend Edge So I have purchased a little more than 50% My list is the same except for Balor and HBK. I regret not getting HBK now. Just slept on him for some reason and now the after market price is outrageous. You live and learn.

2 Ronda figures and that’s it. I’ve never seen UE figures in stores ever so both Ronda figures were online purchases.

I have none. The only names I had interests in were HBK and Bret. I didn't like the attires or the heads so it was a super easy pass.

Luckily I found all the ones I wanted (warrior/Bret/hhh/rock/hogan/savage) at retail (target or amazon) - debated hbk, but never found at retail and didn’t really care for the head sculpt..

I started collecting the UEs a bit later and have decided I'll just buy any I like because if I want them later they'll be hard to find or ridiculously expensive. I regret not getting the HBK, Triple H, Warrior, and Rock.

UE Warrior is outstanding...was a must have for me in fairness It put the line on the radar for me, totally. Although I wish they kept the consistency on Warrior's dusters more. The material/texture is totally different between OWN, DM and the new Ringside Exclusive.

I’ve skipped on all. I can’t stand the torsos. Ab & butterfly? shoulder joints. And the extra $10 retail price isn’t justified much when some could’ve been released under the regular elite line.

I've bought HBK, Bret, Macho, and Edge. I plan on getting the Fan Takeover HBK, Fan Takeover Jeff Hardy, UE10 Cena, and maybe the Fan Takeover Hogan and UE9 Austin when they're available for order. I regret not getting Becky or Balor. I was on the fence with Cena as well, but not anymore since I prefer the upcoming 2006 to 2008. Honestly, I'm a big fan of the line and the articulation, just pretty picky about what characters I collect, hence why I've sat out on some.

I’ve gotten Balor, Cena, Lesnar, Hogan, Fiend and Edge. Overall I have mixed feelings. I feel like Elites should have that level of articulation by now, but some Ultimates have been great and some don’t justify the extra price.
Lesnar is pretty much perfect and Balor and Fiend are great.
Edge needs chest hair and has the wrong shade of red for his attire and Hogan needs a tan skintone. The Cena head I like most has trouble staying on and his toe articulation is super loose and is annoying to move around. It’s annoying when the premium line has inaccuracies like that.
Also, even though their chest joints can move side to side, most Ultimates can’t bend forward and backward as much as Elites can.
I’ve said it before but I really hope they remove the toe articulation some day. It just gets in the way and adds nothing in terms of posing. Half of my Ultimate’s toe joints bend any time I move the figures at all.
Overall, mixed feelings. And the upcoming Fan Takeover options and winners don’t leave me excited for what’s to come. Hopefully the Kane and Undertaker set rumors are true. I wouldn’t mind seeing more modern names too like Tribal Chief Roman, Rollins, AJ Styles, etc.

I was out of the game until series 6 so I currently only have Rock, Hollywood and Mach but I love them all. I'll be getting Austin and Flair eventually and definitely more. As for the ones I missed out on at retail prices, I definitely need the Triple H and would like a Warrior but don't see that one happening. Although I do like the HBK, I was never a fan of the head sculpts and I figure they'll do another DX fig eventually. My dream would be an ultimate DX:IYH since it's been a few years since the Elite sold out on Ringside and they've already shown with the Amazon Warrior poll they'll double dip on popular attires. I feel similarly about the Bret, I like it but can hold out for a different version.

I’ve only bought Hollywood Hogan, Mach Man, and Bret. I only bought Bret to see how they were in hand and was disappointed with all 3 headscans. Hollywood and Macho Man were bought because I collect them specifically. I would’ve probably bought more if they didn’t have this god awful torsos.

I feel similarly about the Bret, I like it but can hold out for a different version. I'd buy a DX:IYH Ultimate in a heartbeat. It's my favorite attire he's ever worn, and I wasn't collecting when the Elite came out. I've got a WMXIV one (my second favorite attire) I got secondhand (without the chaps but I don't care 'cause those were doodoo), but I'd gladly replace it with that attire. As for the Ultimates, I actually have more than I ever assumed I'd get: Ronda Rousey Shinsuke Nakamura Becky Lynch The Fiend Hollywood Hogan Rousey and Hogan were (welcome) gifts, Shinsuke was a great clearance get for something like $18. Fiend is the only one I bought at full price, and Becky was the craziest contest I've ever won, in that the prize was supposed to be the Basic of the same attire.

I’ve only gotten Hogan and Fiend. Fiend was worth it for the belt and jacket, I don’t think we’ll ever get an Elite with those. Hogan was well worth it, I really love that figure.
I regret not getting Rock from Amazon when I had the chance. I can’t remember the number of times I debated on it and said no because I couldn’t justify the $30. I was way wrong on that one!
The Flair looks awesome, but idk how much better it is than the RetroFest I already have. Austin is my favorite wrestler ever, but I’m super disappointed with how his turned out. I have the original Legends figure, and this is basically exactly the same. I was hoping we would get different color knee braces, a new vest, or the smoking skull. Any of those would have changed my mind.
