I really wish something could be done in relation to international shipping prices on these.
Even ordering the full set of mats and skirts would need nothing more than a medium padded envelope which could be shipped for a fraction of what is being currently charged.

Went to Bradford TRU for a nosey around. Not much in the way of elites, but picked up Nikki Bella, Charlotte and Neville on the 3 for 2 offer.
Not a bad score at all

You should get a card through the post.
I bet you're looking at about £30-£40 customs fee in total unfortunately.

I thought all elite Orton's had the same legs apart from the All Stars figure which had slightly shorter legs

I've been ill and fed up for the past week with tonsilitis so treated myself to E38 (minus Farooq) They arrived today and honestly I am quite underwhelmed. I love my Mattel figures and was so excited to get them but as I unboxed them it was just a bit....meh I couldnt even be bothered posing them properly for photos which isnt like me. It probably didnt help that each figure came with a problem: Bradshaw/Rose/D-Bry  I was really looking forward to getting elites of the APA but Bradshaw in hand is just ok. His waist is too small compared to the hip joint, and its not as if he was a slim guy. I dont mind the sleeved t-shirt version, dont know if il ever pick up the sleeveless too, i'll wait and see if I ever see one at retail. Also one of the chair legs was really bent in the packaging which was a bit of a pain to straighten correctly. Adam Rose looks ok, good detailed design, only problem is his glasses dont fit properly on his head. He doesnt have holes to fit them in, they pop off if you try put them on where they should go, so you can only fit them directly across his ears. They will stay there but dont look like they fit right. Daniel Bryan - nice figure. The scans good and I like the t-shirt. Mine has a line of skin coloured paint across his hairline, but so does practically every other D-Bry figure I own Savage:  My favourite from the set. Nice colourful attire, love the cowboy hat and glasses. Wish we'd gotten a shirt with it but its cool. The boot on mine was hanging out of the calf, had to fix it but its poor that its packed in that condition in the first place Roman Reigns:   At first glance not too bad a figure, I like the updated/current vest. I personally dont mind the scan either. My big gripe with this figure is that his hair has been glued on crooked and at an angle so the skin color is visible behind his hairline, and it looks like someone has laid a big black turd down the side of his face. No excuse for this poor quality control. Unfortunately its far too common in new elites, having to look through several figures to find the one with the least flaws. I dont remember it being like this with older elites. In fact I often buy older figures, very early ones from 2010/11 and even buying them loose second-hand they are in better condition than brand new figures in my local TRU. Maybe i'm just grumpy with being ill, haha. They are redeemed with Elite 39 though, I already have Sting, Bulldog and Sid and I love them. Godfather is must-have too and I will also complete the set with Dolph and Mizdow. What are everyone else's thoughts on E38? |

Has anyone seen E38 on shelves in Smyths yet? Just wondering if they are sleeved/sleeveless?

Found a Nikki Bella in Bradford TRU today so picked it up. First one i've seen at retail thought this set was long gone.
They had the Undertaker DM in too so got one for my son.

Received my E39 Sting, Bulldog and Sid today.
Great figures and I love the new packaging.
Iv ordered a material Union Jack table flag im going to try fit it to Bulldog in place of the plastic one so I can display it with his arms lowered as i'm struggling to fit him in my already full Detolf unit.

Personal faves of mine are street fight gear Vince, Batman Rey Mysterio, the Signature Series Edge with white pants and Wrestlemania Heritage Edge with the silver pants.
