So I've been looking for an elite andre figure and I want to know which one is the best to purchase. I already have the basic that came with the ring cart but, mine has some paint scuffs on it and isn't the best.

I went with the Matty Collector one and came across a good deal on it loose. If you're looking for a moc one then maybe elite 29?

Really hope we don’t get an Andre ultimate. He’s not very “toyetic “ Imo .

Wait for the inevitable Ultimate Edition Andre. This would actually be pretty cool.

I would also like one in the black singlet with a crazy eyes wide toothy smile and some proportions accurate to Andre. One off sculpt that is made only for that figure and huge hands that can choke.

His legends figure is the best by far imo. Best likeness. Will cost a pretty penny right now. But I agree with the post above that an Ultimate should be coming (I hope) Mega Bucks Two Pack!!!!

They'll do it, it's only a matter of time. There's plenty of room for improvement on the Elite for at least a couple of different head sculpts, a couple of giant hand variations...maybe even a navy and a black cloth singlet with the old-school yellow tights underneath + a matching afro head to go with it? You could cover so many Andre eras and really make it the ultimate Andre figure.

I wouldn’t mind a new Andre. Hopefully it’s an attire I can just pop a Big Show head on since now that Show is in AEW everyone thinks his Mattel figures are worth their weight in gold.

He was penciled in for Legends 15 and was supposed to be the chase until that series got shifted around. Hoping it’s still coming. I was expecting either WM1 with a duffle bag of cash, maybe the handprint shirt or alternate afro head and WM2 chase or molded black singlet with the Andre belt and blue singlet chase.

People always predict that someone’s UE will be something that encompasses multiple variations of the character with different shirts and accessories. That’s never the case. They’re always one event or timeframe with accessories to go along that one specific look. If made, Ultimate Andre will likely be 1987 with a molded singlet, couple heads, the Andre belt, alternate hands, and maybe the winged eagle too.

I’d love an Ultimate figure. Andre always sells based off what I’ve seen so it seems like a no brainer.

Molded blue singlet with either of these two alternate heads would be a great figure for the Legends line.

Andre and Hogan from WM III are bound to be a UE series at some point.

If you can find one for a good price, my favorite Andre that Mattel has done is the HOF Heenan Family Set, the molded blue singlet.
I do hope, and think, we will get an Ultimate Edition Andre. To me, I would prefer his WM3 look, molded black singlet, suit from WM3 press conference, multiple heads (one normal, one with more hair and side burns, and one wide-eyed with a big smile). Multiple hands (at least one set has to be choking hands). And the WWF Title they made for Andre around this time. If they can't get that title because of rights, they could just include the winged-eagle belt since he won that at the rematch.
