These choices would absolutely suck for anyone who collects old school like myself. There’s always maybe one newer guy (such as AJ) but the other attire choices are shocking, especially when the BAF is the old school Tux Vince. So I’m expected to spend $100 on 4 figures I don’t need just to get the Vince?! Toy companies have been doing it since the dawn of the Build a Figure concept |

Ellering had HBK & Chyna then two more modern versions of Edge and old man Goldberg. I didn’t mind that and could get a small amount back selling Edge and the Goldberg but this time around the whole set is useless to old school collectors…which would be fine if the BAF was something from 2009 onwards or something but a Wrestlemania 3 Vince with these 4 attires? That’s a crappy move. |

Collectors: "Hey Bill, can we get a WrestleMania 13 Bret Hart?" Bill: "Hmmm...13 plus 13 is 26." Collectors: "...What?" Bill: "13 plus 13 is 26! Of course! You can have your WrestleMania 26 Bret, no problem!" Makes me wonder if they know they can’t get Bret’s old school sculpts and have given up the ghost for a while. Think the only good Bret scan they’ve made is the old man jorts version that was already released so guess they’re more comfortable with that. |

I understand you guys’ Bret Hart pain because I feel the same about AJ. Given the new face scans and arms, they had 6 attires to choose from, and they went with jeans

So we finally get a chaps HBK and get WM 26; that's so mattel of mattel.
Well; actually let me not be an ass. I think it's a great figure and needed. But it still takes back seat to any other chaps HBK's.
WM 23-21-22 or any attires from that 05-07 period prior to Shawns return at the end of 07 I think is what we all want for a Chaps HBK.

I don’t understand why people are complaining about WM26 HBK. People have been begging for RA era guys and HBK in chaps. Seems like iconic attire being HBK’s final match. It’s never been produced before in elite form. It’s not DX attire. What’s the problem?

That’s a crappy move. Worst is upcoming RR set. Have to buy a Dakota Kai and Big-E just to get that Jimmy Hart. I mean cmon! Plus its a Target Exclusive set- so that’s an ebay set for me. |

This seems more accurate as you only post complaining about Mattel figures. You keep buying them but it sounds like you don’t even like them. |

Wrestlemania 2 or 13 Would of be my top choices for Hitman, there’s so many other mania attires they could it went with and they’re going with mania 26?

Hilarious Bret choice by Mattel. Once again, no one gets what they want.
Excited for that lovely HBK attire in elite form, though. I hope we get a new killer headscan with this figure because I just don't love any HBK scan so far from this era except that Basic 100 scan, but that seems a little too young for this era of HBK.
We went forever without elite Stone Cold's in the lines and now it seems we can't get away from them. They're all exactly the same.
WM36 AJ is a great choice and will look great with that new Elite Undertaker.
WM3 Vince is a really cool BAF.
I won't mind getting this whole set too much for the BAF. I just wish we could've gotten something better. I would've even been OK with a WM20/21/23 Stone Cold in some street clothes or ref attire. The Bret choice really just makes me laugh. ZERO people are interested in having this, especially when you look at all of the attires that could've been from Mania's past.

It’s never been produced before in elite form. It’s not DX attire. What’s the problem? I personally would prefer 19-24 but really 19-21 or 23 and I think other people feel the same Especially 23, seems like an easy hit. Why wouldn’t they do that. I could see if they didn’t want to do 19 or 20 because Jericho isn’t employed and Benoit did Benoit things but 21 and 23 are easy home runs fr |
