Isn’t it time that stop rereleasing everything. Shouldn’t they want there to be some of their figures to be valuable on the secondary market and not go down when release them.

So, are they still doing the greatest hits elite line? If so, what is the point of this line then? For the Ultimate Warrior figure, does it have a tan? It kind of looks like it, but it could just be the lighting. Also, they updated everything (articulation wise), but the figure shows the old tassels (one molded piece), is that getting updated? The point is obvious, we get more repacks. Do they really need that many repack lines? |

Just Kane and Dudley's for me. Was hoping for Kane as an Ultimate to be a bigger torso. Maybe still in the future like a Ultimate 2 pack Brothers of Destruction. Just happy to not have to open the OG's. Came close a few times

Damn, this is awesome. Would totally get Taker, Kane, and Cena but really don’t want to drop $100+ right now.

Man I want(ed) those Cena and Taker re-releases so badly late spring/early summer of last year when I was obsessed with collecting all of the DM re-releases. Losing that UE Macho really gutted my passion for elites and it makes me sad. I don't even have the heart to order the one's I really want, tight funds doesn't help but if I was still having fun I'd make exceptions. I want these to move the needle for me, maybe in a few months they will.

I'll be the rare person to agree with you on this. I think long term it does more harm then good. When you destroy the value of a product and make prior releases basically pointless then you lose the whole "collectible" angle. It's just another mass market item that anyone can get. It's cool for people filling collections and I admittedly want a few of these. Long term though when you make a collectible item no longer collectible it doesnt play well. Look at Funko with all the releases of old figures again. |

 My honest reaction, as someone that has E7 DX MOC in my closet as a 'incase of emergency, break glass' type of sell option. |

I love this idea for an exclusive. Great thinking.
Hopefully this line continues and we see many more. Love to see some Punk's get updated.
I want the Dudley's but I'll wait till after we see some WM reveals just in case an UE set is upcoming.
REALLY disappointed in the facial hair on HHH & HBK.
Kane is great. Glad they ditched that old mask. I'd never let it see the light of day again.
The rest are all very good, just nothing I need at the moment.

The difference between these and the GH series;
The GH has new packaging that looks like current graphics and are not exclusive.
These are exclusive, and have old school graphics on new packaging.

Absolutely hate this. Way too many releases now and absolutely destroys any feeling of making my collection feel like it’s worth something.

Why RSC exclusive… these figures would sell out quick if they were mass released in stores even over here in uk.. massive up yours to consumers per usual.
P.s… can Mattel please remove the over abundance of Big E stock taking up 6 racks solid in Smyths stores nationwide.. just melt it down.

Good stuff. I like the re-releases at this point. The line is deep enough now to do so. I appreciate that some are bothered by this, though it shouldn’t have an effect on how they perceive their collections. If it does, I think they should question why they collect these figures in the first place.

Just a reminder to everyone to buy things because you get enjoyment from them, not because maybe they’ll hold some value later. These are mass produced toys in the year 2024, not real estate or stocks or precious metals. Everyone saves everything now. Old toys were an investment without knowing it because your dads and uncles blew up their Gi Joes and didn’t think to keep them mint on card for 50 years.
