That Wrestlemania set is painful, last years warmed massively and this years will be even worse. Forcing old school collectors to buy 4 useless figures to get a mania 3 Vince makes zero sense, thatβs just taking advantage IMO. Bret, Shawn and Austin always sell. I doubt itβll be different this time. And the AJ is different from his usually figures and goes with the Undertaker released earlier in the year. The set will sell as these figures arenβt useless for everyone. Iβm sure youβd be able to find someone that wants the four and doesnβt care about the Vince. Bret and Austin "always" selling is a stretch...every Austin is exactly the same aesthetically and that Bret is just an all around horrible pick for this line. |

Elite 91 looking NICE! βHulk Still Rulesβ Hogan, RVD, updated Sami and Kevinβ¦ theyβre all must buys for me personally! Thought, knowing how I am, Iβm probably gonna buy at least four of KO. When is that set supposed to drop? Or at least, a rough estimate of when the preorders go up? Weβre unsure if KO is resigning with WWE or not, and I donβt want another E92 Adam Cole situation to occur with that figure if he leavesβ¦ 2005 wasnβt Hulk Still Rules. That was 2002. Similar but different enough where one canβt be passable for the other. Main difference being 02 had the black beard. |

What % chance is there that we see a first time legend/flashback? Just ONE? Or are we going to go through another whole set of reveals with repaints and a couple new scans of the same old guys? π©ππ» Isnβt Chief jay strongbow a new legend?π |

Austin either. Yeah Austin is pretty much the same but the time in between elite releases for him means this figure will sell. Thereβs always going to be new collectors and Austin is arguably the biggest name in wrestlingβs history next to Hogan so people are going to want him. |

So, I guess we will never find out which 1995-1996 HBK attire won in that poll from last year?

More nice reveals today. Not as many figures I want to get though.
RVD (maybe both)
Jay Strongbow
Austin Theory (hoping for matching Gargano)
Sami Zayn (maybe)
Kevin Owens (maybe)
I was really hoping for a surprise Legend figure, similar to Strongbow or The Goon. Something out of the left-field.

I wish I had been collecting and knew the value of them down the line because I saw the Road Warriors every day for months. |

UE Hogan
Definite pickups:
RSC Taker
RVD + chase
SS10 Hogan
UE Warrior
Rest of DX Army
BAF Vince
Steamboat (either or both)
Basic WM2 Hogan
Maybes:
Mark Callous
The Boss

I wish I had been collecting and knew the value of them down the line because I saw the Road Warriors every day for months. Yeah I got into collecting the line cuz legends and DMs were being clearanced at $5-$10. I wish I woulda scooped up all the Akeems and Models I saw for $5. |
