Is there really only 1 elite Ted DiBiase in ring gear - from the Hall Of Fame series? We have several in the various colors of suit which is great, but we need some of the different looks in ring gear such as the white tights, plus an updated version in the traditional black tights, with updated articulation would be great. I know there is a basic in white, but elite would be great, and I think you could do a lot with an Ultimate DiBiase as well.

They need to resize him though, his HOF figure is approximately the same size as Daniel Bryan for some reason and that's not accurate at all.

 I had Apocalypse swap the torso for me a couple years ago but I would love to see more Elite DiBiase with a bigger torso. I think the Gunther torso could work great for Teddy. |

I made them. I just did leg & head swaps and added decals. I bought a bunch of those Horsemen packs when they went on sale. Thats my all time 2nd favorite tag team. Had to have them in every color.   |

I like the ones we got from Mattel, but I hope they get resigned someday and we can get an UE set of their red and white look like you made. It would also be great to get some Brain Busters jackets as well. They would be great in the RSC exclusive UE Tag Team line. Summer Slam 1989 attire (red and white trunks like your customs), brain buster jackets, and the WWF Tag Team Titles.   You gonna try to do a set with Arn in the blue trunks?   |

Id absolutely love Brain Busters with jackets. I keep saying Im going to add some custom jackets to mine but I keep spending money on other things lol I doubt Ill do the baby blue. Mainly cause there isnt a matching Tully. I might do a mid 90s Arn with a bigger torso. I still have quiet a few heads laying around I believe. |

Ted has needed some updating to his figures for a while now. Hopefully the new heads that come with the Coliseum Collection figure will be great so they can use them for future elites. Have they shown images of the Coliseum Collection figure not in the tux? The renders from a while back had him with some really skinny legs, hopefully that's not the case for the actual figure.  The legs they used for the elite HOF figure were much better.  The white tights from the Summer Slam basic would look nice as an elite. Hopefully that gets made soon. |

The only DiBiase I want now is NWO manager era (probably more likely) or WCW Steiners manager era (probably less likely).
Either way I want a new serious headscan with darker hair/beard.

Mattel needs to do a complete overhaul on part choices for Ted, especially his suited figs. They are WAY too short. I missed on the Hall of fame figure so every Ted I have in my collection is in a suit. I cant wait for the coliseum collection Ultimate, that looks to be the best Dibiase to date. Still waiting for Summerslam '92 in all white gear as an elite to pair with IRS and hopefully a Money Inc. Jimmy Hart someday.

I just picked up the new Basic DiBiase, and honestly, it's the best version Mattel has done so far.
That said, I still want an Ultimate, non-Coliseum era DiBiase. And please Mattel, redo that tiny Million Dollar Belt.

What other ultimate has used this torso? I just want to look so i know what to expect. Mattel hasn't done great with any M$M yet. I made tons of customs but I'd rather just have a factory perfect M$M. |

Right now, from the renders, I'm more worried about the really skinny legs. |

I’d rebuy every suited Ted if they re-released them with corrected height and an unbuttoned jacket |
